  1. It's a toss-up between a Yugo or a Ford Pinto with a bullseye painted on the back bumper;)
  2. TAROT No relation to the V&V group(I didn't even know about them until about 5 years after I came up with mine) They are the power behind all the other groups in the world. The Major Arcana are the leaders(The Magician thinks he is the leader but in reality it is the Fool) and the suits are the varios departments. And I used several well known villians to fill some of the roles. PURITY My short lived anti-mutant group. I got real bored with the whole concept and had the heroes defeat them for good.
  3. Those are great reads:) I think I'll have to add Chameleon Suits to my Star HERO game:cool:
  4. In this case it doesn't have anything to do with buoyancy it's strickly a measure of volume. Here's example: If you had two solid cubes one foot on the side, one made of steel and one made of copper, they would have a different mass but would both displace one cubic foot of water. Like I said earlier it's and old English mearsurment
  5. Curse you Mr V. Your E-Fu is stronger than mine
  6. I don't think that is in Fred I know there was a chart in the BBB. But you can take inches/turn time .3 to get KPH.
  7. From your example your total number of hexes would be 26,506,008 sq hexes which would 195 pts you don't have to by each deck separtly:)
  8. L x W is fine for a vehicle with a single "deck" but for larger ships with multible decks you should add the area of each deck to come up with the vehicle size. HERO does use mass for it's size charts, but most outside sources use displacement for ship/starship descriptions.
  9. Krypton The ability to self-destruct
  10. Just like Bases each deck's L x W are added together to figure the total area.
  11. Hey Aroooo, The term tons(I've also seen it spelled tonnes) when used with ship size is not a unit of weight but a unit of volume (the amount of water displaced by the hull) so a 1000 tons wooden ship is the same size as a 1000 tons metal ship though the dead weight of each is different. It's one of those confusing old English measuring systems. I'm suddenly blank on the exact size in cubic meters but only number in my head this early in the morning is 4 cubic meters but that seems too small
  12. I don't have UV yet and I don't know how big the Skylark of Valeron is. But I'm planning one day to write up the ships of the Honorverse.
  13. I seem to remember reading about a comic writer who did a story near the end of WW II about an atomic bomb-like device and military intelligence anf the FBI came knocking on his door wanting to know what he knew about the Manhattan Project.
  14. You could also make your own with Paint:D And remember it's not the size of your post that matters but how you use it;)
  15. Re: re: Organization vs Characters. Man! Chill was a great game. Some of the best production values of any game company. Great writing, artwork, and layout! Too bad I could never get my group to play:(
