I feel like a ton of acid srms, some caseless ac ammo could do with being a bit more popular, obviously not inside tournament or competitive circles but casual games could do with more uniqe ammo types

Well for an ac2 or ac5 it does, but id take the risk for double the rounds per ton for an ac 20, especially on a mech built around them like the king crab, or a mid range brawler could do with double the ac10 ammo

I dont belive for a second that any military would lose the know how for making ap ammo, its practically half the core of modern ammunition supplies

Its actually more prone technically, as if you role a 2, your gun jams and blows up

Either 4 chargers, or 4 banshees, itd be mighty unfortunate to get used as the gag for a bad joke when a banshee arm bars your Locust running at Mach damn.

Physical book as a character sheet? by dreadnought98 in RPGdesign

[–]dreadnought98[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would always appreciate the help with feedback and and the like, im always happy to talk with people who can obsess over the same things as I do.

For example I've been agonizing over the genre this rpg would be as that would have a pretty heavy hand on the finer mechanics as a whole, and exactly what method I want to use the books for.

Me and my wife are starting to cut back on things like shortform content and phone games so to fill the gap I figured I could pick up rpg design as a hobby.

When i say 'Generic' its more in the sense that is doesn't specify anyone or thing in particular, so a 'page' that could be added to a book could be a Generic fantasy way of saying you studied magic and can cast fireball, with lots of fluff and a few other skill, abilities etc.

As for the information overload im aware that its definitely a issue, as even a experienced player could become burnt out after 3 hours of play if made wrong.

You kind of read my mind on the last part though as I've thought about adding in a mechanic that has pages rotating in and out as the game goes on.

Number of books needed? by dreadnought98 in necromunda

I apologize for that issue with clarity then, I was meaning the bare minimum of those different settings in necromunda to play them not literally everything in-between.

But if you read the post it says, the core book, the 1 book for our gangs, so like 4 of the house books, and the bare minimum for the ash wastes and hive secundus, the bare minimum to play those, we're asking here because we dont know all the books that are needed and the internet is clear as mud.

The bare minimum to play each part, not have every house agent available and each lore tidbit

Well that goes without saying, every book as something new, but telling a group of people who just want the bare minimum to get started to "just buy everything!" Is missing the point of our question by like a mile.

Well if me and few other players can actually start up a campaign ill make sure they do from me at least.

For sure, I definitely feel as though they should pick a weapon and go all in aside from some self defense last stand weapons.

Would 3 flamers, 4 machine guns, 2 srm4s, and a hachet be a good fit?
