Re: Shadowcats Vehicular Insanity Shop[6E]: SS Edmund Fitzgerald I went with the unluck after reading what I could on the history of the ship, there were a couple of minor incidents in her history also your right on the endurance etc, although she also put into various ports for supplies and mail, so thats a good question

Re: Shadowcats Vehicular Insanity Shop[6E]: SS Edmund Fitzgerald 35 years ago today, 29 men went down with the Edmund Fitzgerald, and they still dont know for sure why, she has broken in two, best guess is she bottomed out on a shoal that was about 30 foot in depth, and the Fitz drew 39

With the anniversary of the sinking coming up, I realized I had never worked this up, especially since I have a Ghost Ship scenario for Horror Hero that uses her. for a very interesting take on the disaster from the reporter who had to interview the families... http://members.peak.org/~kightp/scribble/fitz.html SS Edmund Fitzgerald Player: Val Char Cost 110 STR 0 10 DEX 0 51 BODY 0 4 PD 3 2 ED 0 3 SPD 10 12m RUN 0 8m SWIM 0 4m LEAP 0 Characteristics Cost: 113 Cost Power Construction 1 1) Hardened Steel: (Total: 1 Active Cost, 1 Real Cost) +1 BODY (Real Cost: 1) 20 2) Displacement Tonnage: +20 BODY Powerplant 4 1) Oil Fired Steam Turbines: Endurance Reserve (10 END, 10 REC) Reserve: (11 Active Points); OIF Immobile (-1 1/2), Custom Modifier (Real Gear; -1/4), 1 Continuing Charge lasting 1 Hour (-1/4); REC: (8 Active Points); OIF Immobile (-1 1/2), Custom Modifier (Real Gear; -1/4) 4 2) Ships Generators: Endurance Reserve (10 END, 10 REC) Reserve: (11 Active Points); OIF Bulky (-1), Crew-Served ([3-4] people; -1/2), Custom Modifier (Real Gear; -1/4), 1 Continuing Charge lasting 1 Week (-0); REC: (8 Active Points); OIF Bulky (-1), Crew-Served ([3-4] people; -1/2), Custom Modifier (Real Gear; -1/4) Mobility 1 1) Swimming +4m (8m total) (2 Active Points); Surface Only (-1), Side Effect (propeller does KA 2d6 to anyone coming in contact with bottom stern of vehicle, occurs automatically, only affects environment around vehicle; -3/4), Limited Maneuverability (-3/4), Crew-Served ([3-4] people; -1/2), Difficult to Operate (Unwieldy Design; -1/4), 1 Continuing Fuel Charge lasting 1 Week (easily-obtained fuel; -0) 35 2) Large Boat's Anchor: +100 STR, Reduced Endurance (0 END; +1/2) (150 Active Points); Partial Coverage (-2), OIF Bulky (-1), Custom Modifier (Real Gear; -1/4) 2 3) Heavy Anchor Chain: +10 BODY (10 Active Points); Partial Coverage (-2), OIF Bulky (-1), Custom Modifier (Real Gear; -1/4) Electronics Systems 16 1) Navigation Radar: Radar (Radio Group), Increased Arc Of Perception (360 Degrees), MegaScale (1m = 1 km; +1) (40 Active Points); OIF Bulky (-1), Sense Affected As More Than One Sense [very common Sense] (-1/2) 5 2) Basic Vehicle Radios: High Range Radio Perception (Radio Group) (12 Active Points); OIF Bulky Fragile (-1 1/4), Custom Modifier (Real Gear; -1/4) Command and Control 1 1) Bridge and Helm: +2 with Combat Piloting (4 Active Points); OIF Bulky (-1), Crew-Served ([3-4] people; -1/2), Costs Endurance (-1/2), Custom Modifier (Real Gear; -1/4) Personnel Systems Other Equipment 29 1) Fire Suppression System: Dispel Fire Powers 12d6, (+2) (108 Active Points); 2 Charges (-1 1/2), OIF Bulky (-1), Custom Modifier (Real equipment; -1/4) Powers Cost: 118 Cost Skill 1 +1 with Mechanics (2 Active Points); OIF Bulky (Reduces Vehicle to 1/2 DCV; -1 1/4), Custom Modifier (Real Equipment; -1/4) 1 +2 with Navigation (4 Active Points); OIF Immobile Fragile (-1 3/4) Skills Cost: 2 Cost Talent 2 Bump Of Direction (3 Active Points); OIF Fragile (-3/4) 2 Absolute Time Sense (3 Active Points); OIF Fragile (-3/4) 2 Eidetic Memory (5 Active Points); OIF Bulky Fragile (-1 1/4), Custom Modifier (Real Equipment; -1/4) Talents Cost: 6 Total Character Cost: 239 Pts.

Re: Great Button... thanks to Tom Smith yes, but do you really expect me to write up stats for a horse and buggy for the drive by shunnings?

Tom Smith reported seeing this button at OVFF this weekend "There once was a game called D&D. It was like World of Warcraft for Amish."

Re: Music to Kill Zombies By uhm... thats NOT a new weapon, its what used to be called the Atchisson Assault 12 and for extra destruction you can mount an M-203 or HK-69 umderneath

Pagan/Martial Arts organization... really cool http://www.dunscathach.com/ Founded by Kerr Cuhulain, author and police officer, he headed the local PD contingent of the popes security detail when the Pope visited Vancouver. their taste in weapons tends towards small blades and bo or quarter staves although a couple of folks in ritual pictures had katanas

Re: Blackwyrm Looking For Star Hero Submissions and if you want to collaborate or need help, I am currently at loose ends projectwise

Re: Blackwyrm Looking For Star Hero Submissions I am going to dust off some ideas that I have never really done much with WIGE craft Grav augmented Ornithopters

Re: Blackwyrm Looking For Star Hero Submissions are you going to set any baselines as far as tech levels etc? or what exists currently in the setting?

Re: Blackwyrm Looking For Star Hero Submissions are there submission guidlines posted somewhere? I have plenty of ideas, equipment, starships in mind... or is there anything specific you want to see developed? my specialty is mostly tech stuff

after a long hiatus, I have cranked out another batch of real world vehicles, mostly modern, with a couple of experimental craft. some stuff used by Iraq and Iran especially.

Re: Actual usefulness of Jetpacks/Jump-packs/Powered Gliders/etc In Starship Troopers, Heinlein talks about MI armor having jump packs, and their being best used for short range low altitude jumps, otherwise the hangtime makes you a great big target

Re: Horror/Urban Fantasy Monster Hunter Game wow... where to start you might want to start by looking at the Bureau 13 books by Nick Pollotta, and the RPG that spawned the books, they would be great for idea mining, although they do tend towards puns flying faster than bullets at some points questions and suggestions: 1. do the players have to be supernaturals, or possibly just surviving a supernatural encounter etc? 2. does magic exist? or just paranormal creatures etc? 3. does the organization monitor the agents at all? and if so how are contacts handled? this makes for a good start

Re: Potential Source Material - The Event Group Series Of Books The Event Group books are decent, if you like them, theres a series I like a lot better, along sorta the same lines The Sigma Force books by James Rollins... starting with Sandstorm and currently on Doomsday Key http://www.jamesrollins.com/

Re: A list of basic starship designs, 5th Revised? I also do custom designs or design tweaking for starships and vehicles in general, if you want something specific put together, either post a shopping list or contact me off list, been doing mostly real world vehicles lately so if say you wanted to put together a cybertank or something based loosely on a current modern vehicle, thats doable too.
