|
|
I'm using the Pulp Gear TK a lot in a setting I'm bashing together with my brother, and I'm thinking that I'd like to reduce the cost and space requirements of vehicles guns that have Fixed Gun - after all, that's why they were used in real life. However, I need to come up with specific mechanical effects of Fixed Gun - the note in the rulebook isn't exactly helpful in that respect. I think an additional -2 Shooting vs. moving targets may be in order, with a 10% reduction in price and 1 less space required. _________________ "Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats."

| I doubt the -2 to shooting. Fixed guns work perfectly fine if faceing forward or backwards on moving targets. |

How about "you need a driving roll in order to correctly line up your vehicle" after that it's a normal to hit.
And 10% seems slike too small space reduction for fixed gun. A mobile gun should be able to traverse at least 60 degrees so half space sounds more like it. _________________ "Eyes without life…sundered heads…piles of carcasses…these are pleasing words to me"

I'd recommend a 20% price reduction and a .5 space reduction (can't have a 1 space weapon taking up no space). Then firing the weapon uses the lower of the driver's Driving or Shooting skill. _________________ Clint Black

Good call on the Driving/Shooting. _________________ "Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats."
