Danger International also had a good list of modern day weapons. I can't remember if its 3rd or 4th edition though

Aroooo

My fav. is how the Captain looks a lot like the Captain from Starblazers; esp. the uniform & its high colar.

What you want is 3G^3 (Guns Guns Guns) from the folks at Blacksburg Tactical Research Center.

http://www.btrc.net/html/catalog.html#3G3

From their catalog listing:

"3G3 is technically sophisticated weapon design supplement for virtually any role-playing game. You can design weapons of any type at any Tech Level where they are possible(not just historically available), and then convert that design to the role-playing game you prefer most"

Hero is one of the many systems covered.

Significant Update

Not big necessarily, but significant. Added the Equipment section - includes personal armor. Updated the PPG stats in the Weapons section, and added write-ups for some of the other PPGs. Also made a slight page formatting change for readability on wide screens.

Enjoy!

I'm trying to build a pilot's flight suit, particularly the g-suit portion of it. I had worked out the following:

G-Suit: Environmental Movement (no penalties on High-G environments) (2 Active Points); OIF (-1/2), Only to compensate for high-g flight maneuvers (-1/4) (1 Real Point)

Opinions?

Even coordinated attack woudn't change anything. They help in the stun but not in the damages.

There is an optional rule in TUV about coordinated attacks vs. ships and vehicles (pg 184). Basically, it talks about combining the BODY of coordinated attacks vs. overcomming vehicle defenses. So, even a few small to mid size ships could gang up on even the biggest ships and hurt it.

It's still v2.1, and does work with the latest Palm OS (5.x).

Minor Update

Went to a wedding last week, so didn't get as much done as I thought i would (Irish wedding you know), but I've posted a minor update:

Updated the Package Deals for the Narn and Centauri, based on some user feedback plus info from the Mongoose RPG. Also updated the sample Narn and Centauri characters. Also, built out the Earthforce PPG as a multipower so you can see the construction.

Re: Species That Require a Host

Originally posted by Sketchpad

I've been working on a germ-based race and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions how a racial package should be built for this? They're similar to the Trill from DS9 in the way that they bond with a host ...

There was some lengthy conversations about this in one (or more) of the Stargate threads. One of the major points from that thread was this: is it really required to define the host/symbiote as a power construct? That goes back to the game/world setting. Do the host/symbiote act as one, or are they two distinct individuals? Even then I might not think they need to be a specific power construct. Simply make it a SFX/game construct, and have certain skills or powers come from the symbiote, while the rest come from the host. Also, how often, or how easily can the two be separated?

edit: Here is the link for the Stargate thread (in the old forums I was thinking about):

Duh... Okay, let me just say it was early, and I stayed up way too late last night watching Stargate 3rd season DVDs.

Nice site, thanks for the link! But I didn't see deck plans, unless you were referring to the plans for the Lady Jane.

I'm definately thinking of using the Psi ideas.

And the ship my players are using is basically the Icarus Scout with a new design (deckplans are on my website).

Aroooo

I like the way you've done latents. I'll have to borrow from that idea. As for the rest of your ideas, its been a few months since I deliberately read the Psi rules, so I could come back to it with a fresher start. I'll work on it by this weekend and see how it goes.

Thanks for the feedback!

Aroooo

Not in a multipower. But, if the MP pool has enough points to power multiple slots in the same phase, just do it as a multiple power attack - i.e. you'd get two autofire shots off, one smoke, one Glue, each lobbing 3 rounds (for a total of 6) at the target.

Site Update

Okay, don't get too excited Since the server move is finished, I took some time to update the look/style of the site. As much as I liked the green text on black background 'computer' look, it does not print well. So I reversed the color scheme so its a better read - or maybe that should just be a cleaner read

I'll be adding a few ships to the site by this weekend, and I hope a package deal or two as well.

Aroooo

Fudge... I just realized this got posted to the wrong section. I meant to post it to the company questions board. Sorry

Aroooo

Ben/Dan,

Can you flush your DNS cache(s)? The emails generated by the forum are not getting to me since I made my DNS updates Friday night.

Thanks!

My DNS servers at work have updated, so that's a good sign.

It Lives!

My server is up. DNS changes are still filtering. You can get to it here if need be:

http://216.224.24.50/rpg_stuff/b5/index.php

Let me know if you can't get to it the regular way (http://www.aroooo.com/rpg_stuff/b5/index.php) by Monday.

Server move update

FYI,

The server is moving this afternoon (within the hour). DNS changes have already started (I hope). The server will be plugged back in late this afternoon/early evening. I'll post its IP address when its back on so you can get to it if you need it this weekend.

Aroooo

Server Move

FYI: I will be moving my server in the next few days. This move will also require a DNS address change. The site will probably be down about two days, but I'm working to keep it down to just one. I'll post the exact date the move is scheduled as soon as I know it.

Then I can finally get back to building ships

Aroooo

Still here

Nope. Still here. I've been sidetracked by life, and setting up a new small business. (More on that later.) The good news is we're almost set up, so I can get back to B5 Hero.

Aroooo

Back Up

Thanks! We were pretty lucky. A few houses down from me a big tree fell right between two homes. Now that's lucky.

My server is back up by the way. As it turns out while my server was connected to the backup generator for the building, Verizon's telco equipment was not. Go figure...

Aroooo

Isabel

Yup, my server (and my whole office) is off the air. Being one of Dominion Power's 340,000 odd folks out of power (in No. VA) is a bummer. Even my email is down Our batteries lasted for about 2 hours, and then poof.

I'll post a note when I'm back up.
