  1. Re: Stargate weapons

     

    You went from a 6 DC version of the staff weapon to an 18 DC version? That's not what I'd call "tinkering". That's giving it the exact same damage as a 57mm recoilless rifle (FREd' date=' pg. 332), a full blown antitank weapon. Is there any evidence on SG:SG-1 the staff weapons can take out armored vehicles? (Considering the trauma plate on the SGC body armor can prevent a staff weapon from killing the wearer of the armor, I'd say the answer is a resounding [i']No![/i])

     

    O'Neill blasted a rather large hole in a castle wall with only two or three shots in the pilot episode. Additionally, staff weapons have been shown to blow fist sized holes in people.

     

    That being said, I may bump it down to 3.5d6 RKA AP.

    Yes, that's what it is.

     

    Naturally, some people, utterly failing to get the joke, hold it up as an example of how bad the HERO System is. :(

     

    And all of them work for the Marketing Dept. at the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation.

    Zephram Cochrane was first seen in the TOS episode"Metamorphisis"."Zephram Cochrane of Alpha Centauri? Inventor of the space warp?" I think were the exact words said by Kirk when they met.

     

    If it's not an exact quote, it's pretty close.

     

    Also note that McCoy stated that Cochrane was human. That a pretty good indicator that he was born on Earth.

    Power would be most likely be supplied by solar arrays, though perhaps a nuclear plant might be used (this would require dependance on earth for supply of fuel).

     

    Given that lunar nights last two weeks, I would think that the power source would have to be nuclear.

    Considering my name here is Hunter1, I was thinking of creating a superhero called the Hunter. I could create the obvious martial artist type, but I am looking for something different and unique. Any suggestions?

     

    [Ahem]

     

    Did that years ago. :D

     

    Hunter is ateleporting martial artist who moonlights as a bounty hunter. And he's very good at it, since he can use his mind scan power to locate his targets.

    The commander of the alien ship was named Balok. The human officer who volunteered to stay on the Fesarius was Lt. Bailey. The drink served by Balok was called Troika.

     

    Tranya. The drink was tranya.

    So in essence they can launce 12 at a time, have a total of 25 shuttles, plus the "Captains Yatch"? BTW I thought the Yacht was only on the E

     

    No, the D had a Captain's Yacht as well, mounted in the same location as it was on the E. We just never got to see it on screen.

    Ever see the episode with those two that float around in the background, repairing things while everything is going to hell? I LOVE those types of shows. Just like Star Trek TNG's episode "Ensigns of Command".

     

    I generally like episode like that as well. But I thought that particular episode of B5 was just lame.

     

    BTW, are you sure you don't mean TNG's "The Lower Decks"?
