Weapons and Armor Gurps Traveller 4E

[Seanr451]

The biggest problem we have right now as Gurps-Traveller players is that Gurps 4E doesn't have Space, Ultra-Tech, Vehicles, etc. With Interstellar Wars consigned to sometime in the unknown future who knows how long it will be until we have the weapons and armor info to play GT4E.

With this in mind I have created several tables.
Gurps 4E Weapons
Gurps 4E Armor
And as a lark I also made this:
Advanced Hit Location Chart

I'd like some help play-testing these numbers. If you see something that looks wrong to you (weight, Rof, anything) let me know. I appreciate the feedback.

The GCA data file from your weapons on the SJGames forums are up on my site.

Not sure if you have the latest version of GCA or not.

I'd like to change it to reflect any modifications you do.

I'm heading to DragonCon, but when I get back I'll also do the Armor stats in the same format.

Some you missed from the Traveller book that I'd like to see statted out...

Revolvers, Flame Throwers, Laser Infantry Support Weapons. (not all from me)

Edit: removed Holdout as it was pointed out elsewhere that you included the bodypistol now.

Kyoya,

Are you sure that sean still wants to contribute his work to the SJG website or anything to do with SJG after the way he was hosed on the forums?

Maybe you should ask him if he still wants to do anything that might help them. For all we know, he might want to delete the hepful things he added there like his weapons chart and his hit location but can't thanks to being blown away by hurricane andrew...

Sean,

I kinf of like the hit location chart but it's not really printer friendly. Could you think of making one that used a simple black and white graphic image, or just a sillohouette, that was easier to print clearly with a simply black inkjet?

I know I have no right to impose on you in any way, but you're obviously gifted enough to make these, so it might be simply for you to make one with a simple, easily printed humanoid figure.

BTW, your image looks too good to use as a target! If only you had a pic of andy hackard to use instead.....

But as one victim of hurricane andrew to another, could you at least consider making an easier to print version of your well thought out hit location chart?

Last point: I did a 10mm autosnub pistol and ammo stats here, could you tell me what you thought of it? I was doing a straight rtranslation from data in GT2e, the eratta for it and starmercs for range, weight, damage, etc.

Nope, I want the links to stay. I posted that info to help TRAVELLER players. Not SJ or AH. That I feel unfairly banned because others were attacking me is beside the point.

I looked at your 10mm Snub stats and they look fine to me.

As to the Advanced Hit Location Chart, go check it now. I've added some stuff. Alas it's still in color. That was the point. I was tired of those plain blank hit location chart outlines and wanted to do something different. I just made another one with a german soldier for Gurps WW2.

 

[J.C.D.]

Ok, I understand you wanting to color your charts up, but I would like a simple to print one that could be used as a disposable handout to players, so it doesn't eat expen$ive color ink to print, see?

I'll check out the german soldier one. How about one of a terrorist? or maybe uncle osmama
himself?

Say, have you seen my thread on making a critical hit chart for ANY ship in GT fairly simply? What do you think on that?

Not to nitpick but a minor point re your hit location chart, you say that only Imp and Pi can hit the vitals. Correction, if I may: A Tight beam burning attack (A laser) can also hit vitals.

BTW, where's the german soldier chart? I'd like that to send to a friend of mine who's major into Gurps ww2.


Best.

Please DO nitpick. That is the purpose behind my putting this info on the forums prior to putting it on my website. As to the Tight Beam Buring omission I have only one thing to say; "Doh!" <smacks forehead>

The German Soldier chart is done, I just haven't placed it online yet. Soon.

It was a fairly heated discussion all around if you're refering to your first time. I didn't see anything really ban worthy myself, but I seem to be much more relaxed.

I like the hit location charts.

As for the Weapons, you can e-mail me if you want them taken off my site or anything else. Otherwise I will update when I get back, and look forward to any other stats you do in that regard.

 

[J.C.D.]

Actually, it's officially spelled "D'Oh!"

In a more serious vein, I'd still like a quick print version that has no background images to obscure the text, maming it easily printed and read. But that's also coz I'm running a convention game soon and wouldn't mind having it at hand.

Uh, Kyoya, Lord Andwew might ban a user if he posts material produced by a banned user. Seriously, you might get banned if you printed links to Sean's stuff, I wouldn't put it past hackard.

Just trying to keep you out of trouble, guy.

Thanks Kyoya. That's more decent of you than I have any right to expect.

Ok, so I've added a lot more stuff to the Weapons Chart. Ammo, Flamers, and the Laser Squad Automatic Weapon.

I've added more info to both hit location charts. (You'll just have to pretend it says Tight Beam Burning. I didn't have room to add it in, and I'd had to redo both charts from scratch.) I've also put the German Soldier Hit Location Chart online.

The links are on my personal website. Secondly I don't think AH would do that, that would require a lot of vindictiveness I just don't see.

 

[J.C.D.]

Ok, if you want to risk it....

He'll love it!

Cool, I'm off to DragonCon tomorrow so they won't get updated in the file and on the site until after that. I'll also start on the armour as well.

 

[J.C.D.]

Well, have fun at dragoncon.

Running 2 GURPS Traveller games (with Sean's weapon and armor stats), so I should have a blast.
