Re: MORIA news

Still eagerly awaiting the Alpha PDF for Moria. Has anyone peeked into the palantír to see when it will arrive in our inboxes?

Re: Building Better Worlds PDF Feedback

I'm skimming through the book now, and the first I noticed was a missing word in the description of the Hammerpede (page 120). There seems to be a missing word or line at the end of the description.

Re: Vehicle armor

You could always rule that a weapon with a base damage X points lower than the armor value of a vehicle would be incapable of penetrating the vehicle. Set X so that ”big Guns” would be nessesary.

Re: Vehicle armor

Of course, and I agree completely.

However, sometimes the sheer lack of realism breaks the immersion. Things happen in the game that makes the players and GM stop to scratch their heads.

But drama and storytelling are the priority - as long as it is fun, of course. :)

Re: Vehicle armor

Well, then there are examples when the characters attack heavily armored vehicles like the heavy battle tank with armor 12. Realistically, such vehicles can take thousands of rounds or small arms fire without taking any damage. But Smartguns (Damage 3, Bonus +3, Armor Piercing) will quickly chew the...

Re: Vehicle armor

Interesting. I'll play around with it a bit and test it out. :) Cool :) I found this an easy and quick fix; just drop "Armor Piercing" here and add "Armor Doubling" there to beef/nerf attacks. You can even do it without adhering to a "system" as such, just sliding the ...

Vehicle armor

Hi there, I ran the first part of the Frontier War campaign some time ago, and as I'm considering picking it up again, I'm taking another hard look at the rules, especially those for vehicle armor. I hardly ever use house rules, but to me, the way armor on vehicles is represented in the rules is way...
