chevelless November 29, 2008 - 10:20pm | So, i had everthing all nice and tidy in the downloads section. however, due to my horrid typing skills I cut and pasted everything to the documents section. I noticed some of the tables can not be fully seen unless you look at it in the friendly printer version. however, the download is a bit better to view it. It is still very incomplete, i hope to get the rest finished so I can clean up the documents section soon. |

chevelless November 30, 2008 - 11:38am | w00t is my hero--cause he is so big and strong hehe thx bro. my comp skills are not too good. typing not so good either. thank goodness for spellcheck. going to need your help on a few other ideas too. will post them in diffrent topics, that way before they go to documents or download section their is at least an outside opinion on them. I have a tendency to over think things at times. |
jedion357 December 3, 2008 - 3:03am | after just a quick purusal I'm struck by the similarities of your system to Car Wars by Steve Jackson. I was not 100% sold with the official vehicle rules but since I was just getting all new players grounded in the system I didn't feel the need to tinker with the vehicle rules- especially since we used them only once. I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |

I've developed vehicle rules in the past without knowing CW. Over time ppl have made references to my ideas as coming from CW.... so I guess that's a decent system or at least a good start for a system. :-) |
chevelless December 3, 2008 - 10:20pm | actually, i cant take credit for the system. it is mainly a collection of articles and ideas from various places that I am trying to tie together. I am however, remaking a damage table. CW was a cool game, and I had a system one time that was similar--did it from memory, and man does my memory suck--but i figured the "tanks a lot" article didnt really cover what I wanted and the vehicle variations chart on this site was lacking weapons and armor. I figured I'd try and put them together for those, like myself, that wanted para-military or mega-corp corporate war machines. My son was supposed to help me play test the ideas, but he got a new girlfriend and, well, we all know how the play-testing went. So I figured I would put the project on here so people who were interested could check it out. Hopefully, it will also be a test bed for military war machines to be used with the Groundhawks project. When it gets finished, I hope to have a section for members to post there own creations. So jedi if you want to "tinker" on anything here, please let me know. the more help the better. |
