Well, let's say you're going away from Earth on huge spaceship and suddenly shit goes wrong and you have Super Mutants. Social Experiments prepared them for this.

There aren't any special ones right now, other then equip load which isn't mentioned in this text because I haven't gotten to the items. It's assumed that, unless you're dual wielding, you're using both hands. So there's no bonuses or anything to it, except being able to carry heavier weapons.

I'm gonna give the sign ups till this evening so people have a chance to show up. Then I'll randomly draw the players, stick them in an arena and let them duke it out.

Yeah, I'm just putting the combat system through it's paces for now. Then we'll put the custom air combat into practice. And then the full game; hopefully with a simultaneous full rulebook release. Fingers crossed.

So far toaster is the only one to actually say what kind of weapons he wants. Bravo toaster.

I'm currently taking a break from the more in depth and mindnumbing aspects of the game (Explaining the minutiae of building a ship and stating items- acid sprayers anyone?) to work on the flesher stuff a bit. They've got enough mechanics that I could build a game around just their stuff.

Take my money. All of it. On second thoughts I might have a stroke from the sheer awesome of this, so I'll just write you into my will.

Yeah, I meant specific as in don't tell me you want an M1 Garand with expanded ammo capacities, a modified firing mechanism for full auto fire, a laser dot scope and attached bayonet, etc. You know, go full gun nerd on me and then get annoyed when it doesn't matter for this test.

This is high praise. Are you talking about the idea in general or the recently released rules? I assume the idea in general.

Well... Both. I've seen professionally written rule sets that handle things a lot worse than what you have. Plus my emotions tend to handle a bit like a sledgehammer - I'm not very emotionally subtle, so to speak. Anyways, IN.

I think I got that right.

Almost,not quite though. I'm gonna post something from the skills section that I think pretty much everyone either forgot or just missed.

Quote
General skills must be taken at least once before before specialized skills of the same type can be taken. You have five (8 for this test) points to spend on increasing skills and no more then 3 points can be put into any one skill, general or specialized.

So to take any of the melee skills, you first have to put a point in the general "Melee" skill. The big, page wide boxes that top every series of specialized skills are General skills. The smaller ones are the specialized ones. And there's also that skill limit of 3 in any skill (Not counting the "combat skills" skills).

So yours would be
Ranged:1
     Handguns:X
     Rifles: X
Skullduggery:1
     Assassination:X
Medical:1
     First aid:X

It may seem sort of strange, but it lets someone become decent in lots of skills vs becoming really good in one.
