Revised Maneuver Drives

I went with a modified version of Anthony Jacksons charts to add Dex for the ships maneuver drive

 

...

 

the ideas for the dex adder are taken from Anthony Jacksons Traveller Hero site and used with permission

 

I'll update the PDF with the new values.

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

I'd go with option 2, no restriction.

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

my next project is going to be to post some converted characters I think

to test the conversion rules we posted earlier

 

I will start with my infamous marine cavalry commando and the example merchant from traveller book 1

 

That's a good idea. I've been wanting to have example characters suitable for use as player characters in each of the Race description sections (Aslan merc, Droyne scout, Hiver tech, etc.), but I've got to get the other stuff formatted first.

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

while doing some digging for online reference sources for the book, I ran accross a site that may prove very useful

 

The Traveller Integrated Timeline

http://www.prairienet.org/~dmckinne/timeline.html

 

Don Mckinney was a denizen on the Red October boards years ago also. I e-mailed Don who I know from Winter Wars about using the timeline chart or at least providing a link to it in the pdf.

 

sentients... I think we have officially created a monster here... only question is how many hit dice.

I was all fired up when we started this project, and my enthusiasm keeps growing.

 

Yep , I'm looking forward to getting this PDF fully filled and formatted, Marc's final OK?, and posted for everyone to see and use.

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

Just like FGMP-13, -14, and -15. Okay, let's do it that way.

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

I like it, but the purists will probably want the TL# instead of Low Tech/Med Tech/High Tech.

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

That all sounds good and reasonable to me. As far as GT, I think if we use that for relational damage ( more K than Rifle but less than Bazooka) to guess the values we need to use, we're okay. If we do essentially convert from GT, we'll definitely want to ask permission.

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

About the best we can do then is make reasonable design choices and punt. We may have to overspecifiy and say "TL12 Laser, 120Mj", "TL13 Laser, 150Mj", "100mm Missile, 50kTon", etc. since there are so many incarnations.

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

That works!

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

Hmmm, sounds like we need to collect it all in a spreadsheet and do some comparison and conversion. I think a low-power starship laser should be rated around 7d6K (DC 21), since a Nuclear Missile is 20d6Kx.

Maybe we can interpolate the 150mm missiles from some of the stuff in Dark Champions.

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

I was looking in TNE at the power ratings of the various weapons, and one of the starships has a 120 Mj turret laser (RKA 7d6+1 using "integrated damage") while the Grav Tank has a 108 Mj laser (also 7d6+1 using "integrated damage"). The main difference is that the starship weapon has MegaRange.

So I guess we need to look at the Mj rating in Traveller where given, and see what the "integrated damage" value would be. If it's a starship weapon, it has the appropriate MegaRange advantage.

FYI the "integrated damage" table is at http://www.starherofandom.com/house_rules/damage_table.php

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

Look in the starship construction chapter... we need more standard weapon builds, and we need to get all 6 of the Maneuver drives written up; we still need snippets of info for the Religion chapter, criminal orgs and law enforcement for the Criminal Underworld chapter; look in the Professions chapter - if you have any race-specific professions that we should include, like the Hiver Tech Rep and the Aslan Assassin, we need writeups of those. Also for weapons, we need to decide if we're going to include writeups howitzers, bazookas, and such.

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

good news, I heard back from Marc Miller last night

were good to go on using the book 3 system generation tables as a whole in the PDF, we just need to refer folks to either Book 6- Scouts or the Megatraveller refereess book for the expanded generation system.

 

I forwarded Eodin a copy of the e-mail

I'll check my email when I get home this evening. Good deal!

Re: Traveller Book 3 Equipment

 

Yeah, when I did the FASA Trek, a lot of stuff worked out to like 1CR per Active Point, medicines especially. We should probably use the average Traveller prices as a basis.

Re: Traveller Book 3 Equipment

 

MY thoughts exactly.

 

And GURPS Traveller makes mention specifically that Nanotech and Body Mods don't fit the Traveller mileau, so we should say something similar in ours.

Re: Traveller Psionics (long)

 

I've added in the Limited Power Range-Based END Cost: 5*10^x meters adds x-1 END (-1/4) limitation because in Traveller, psionics cost more based on range to target.

 

For the math challenged, this means count the number of 0s after the five, and that's the extra END cost.

0-5 meters +0

..-50 meters +1

..-500 meters +2

..-5000 meters +3

etc.

 

So if it normally costs 3 END to use a power, if the target is 400 meters away it costs +2 for a total of 5 END to use the power.

Re: Traveller Psionics (long)

 

I'm going to modify the writeups then. I'm going to leave the Endurance Reserve as 5*Rating, so an R-2 has 10 END and an R-10 has 50 END.

 

But I'm going change the powers like so.

Sense: Mind Scan 3d6 (Organic class of minds), x2 END to Activate, x1 END per 1 Minute to Maintain (+0) (15 Active Points); Costs END To Maintain (Full END Cost; -1/2), Stops Working If Mentalist Is Knocked Out (-1/4), Limited Power Range-Based END Cost: 5*10^x meters adds x-1 END (-1/4). Total Cost: 7 points.

For an R-2, which is a 10 END reserve, it'll cost 3 END to activate at less than 5 meters, and 1 END per minute to maintain. At 5 meters (5x10^0) it costs 3 END, but at 50 meters (5x10^1) it costs 4 END, and at 5000 meters (5x10^3) it costs 6 END. So he might get to use it twice before he needs to recover his END reserve.

 

Mind Assault: Ego Attack 3d6, Does BODY (+1) (60 Active Points); Increased Endurance Cost (x2 END; -1/2), Range-Based END Cost: 5*10^x meters adds x-1 END (-1/4). Total Cost: 34 points.

For an R-10, with a 50 END reserve, it'll cost 24 END each use in distances less than 5 meters, so he'll only get 2 shots at 50 meters before his END reserve is gone.

 

Does that sound closer?

Passive sensor arrays, use large antennae to detect any electromagnetic emanations from a potential target.

These are extremely sophisticated and precise sensors.[High Res Thermal, Densitometers, and Neural Activity Sensors are all passive.

Re: TravellerHERO PDF in the works

 

looking over the rough draft.... couple of notes

 

1. isnt the cover missing something? I think it needs the mayday message

2. the Armstrong class Combat Scout is one of my home campaign ships

its not traveller canon

 

1. I'll definitely have to add that.

2. In that case I'll remove it.
