Re: Car Chases and vehicle combat I wasn't clear about what I meant. Sorry about that. I have the Combat book and the Vehicle Source book. I do not have TUV. I originally got the Combat book thinking it dealt with all aspects of combat (it still seems logical to me that it would do that) and I got the Vehicle Source book mistakenly thinking it was the vehicle book that dealt with vehicle combat. I don't have enough money to get TUV right now and, the way things are, I won't for a significant time to come. That means I will have to, more or less, design my own vehicle combat system. I've gotten some suggestions from a friend that will help but.... I have to admit that I am surprised and disappointed that vehicle combat isn't in the combat book and, well, I feel a bit slighted that it isn't. That's the way it is, though, and it isn't as if it's a life-or-death matter. I'll just have to deal with it. It would be nice if DH did something for vehicle combat and car chases with gunfights. kk

Re: Car Chases and vehicle combat Hello, I'm not sure which of my posts you are referring to. My most recent one specifically mentions which book I'm talking about. An earlier post mentions "the vehicle" book and I was referring to the Vehicle Sourcebook. kk

Re: Car Chases and vehicle combat Thank you to everyone for your replies. I appreciate it. I think that you have a point about the Vehicle Sourcebook though I have to admit that I disagree--but it's a real mild disagreement. I took another look at my copy and can, more or less, see reasons for vehicle combat not being in it. I do, however, totally agree that vehicle combat should, without a doubt, be in the Combat book. A combat book should cover all aspects of combat. That's what it's for. Hopefully, future editions will include the vehicle combat rules. The combat rules in the rule book are kinda sorta ok and they should help me figure out how to do car chases with gun battles in my Pulp Hero games (I had forgotten they were there--thanks for reminding me). Maybe the 6th ed. will cover vehicle combat as well or nearly as well as the Ultimate Vehicle seems to (I read that section of it a long time ago from a book a friend loaned me but don't remember much of it). At any rate, I'm going to have to work at and spend time with integrating vehicles in my pulp modules. I was hoping to avoid that much work and that much time. That's why I got the Combat book (hint, hint--politely speaking). Any chance car chases/vehicle combat will ever be covered in DH? One other thing about DH. Is there any way to have a search feature compiled for DH? That would make it possible for anyone (including me) to search for pulp articles and info, vehicle combat rules and strategies, or whatever else needed at the time without having to look through all 47 issues one by one (or however many issues there are at the time). Regards, kk

Re: Car Chases and vehicle combat Well, I got the Combat book thinking it would cover vehicle combat but it didn't. I got the Vehicle book thinking it would cover vehicle combat but it didn't. I can't afford another book for just this one thing. It seems logical to me that a book on Combat should cover, well, combat--including vehicles. It also seems logical to me that a book on vehicles should--you guessed it---cover combat with the subject matter of that book. It doesn't make sense to me that neither the Combat nor the Vehicle books cover vehicle combat since that subject matter would be highly appropriate for both of them. Vehicle combat should be in all 3 books or, at least, in the Combat book since that is what that particular book is about. kk

Does anybody know if there are any Digital Hero issues that cover car chases and vehicle combat? If so, could you tell me which issues. Thanks, kk

Re: Turning Mode Thank you. I'll give that a try. kk

Re: Turning Mode My speedster flies. That's why I need the "no turn mode". kk

Hello, I just have a practical question. I am trying to give my speedster "no turn mode" but I can't find it in Hero Designer. Can anyone help? koolking
