Megatraveller ammunition prices?

Am I missing something really obvious or do the Megatraveller Rules really not give you prices and weights for munitions like RAM grenades?

There are a whole bunch of tables in the Players Manual that give you penetration, damage etc and a one page table in the Imperial Encyclopedia with basic weapon prices but this gives only one unspecified type of ammo per weapon and has nothing for grenades, different types of small arms ammo etc.

One reason I was changing to Megatraveller from CT was that it seemed to compile everything into far fewer volumes than the small mountain of FFE reprints I was having to use.

However if I still have to drag out the FFE volume with Striker in it to get something as basic as the cost of a grenade, I might as well stick with CT anyway.

Hmm, looks like you're right and it's not in my errata sheets either, not suprising really, as many pages as they did do it was nowhere enough


Still in this case I think I'd use the values from the demolition tables on page 103 of the Referee's Manual. I leave the weight to you to figure out.

You do have all the official errata I hope.
