How do you want the character sheets shared with you?

Will we post openly or will we post in secure folders?

I have Alex developed to 5th level....

I have dale done to 5th level. . . .no specifics on the "Gunnery:________" skills and the like. . .any advice on those?

Got no problem posting it or e-mailing it. Let me know.

Gunnery - is broken down as follows:

Modern Direct (anti-aircraft; anti-tank)
Modern Indirect (Mortar; Indirect Artillery)
Black Powder Direct
Black Powder Indirect
Energy (by definition must be direct)
Missiles

I'm guessing it won't be black powder, but I'd be guessing what standard weapons for synth ships/ATAPC vehicles are.

Funny thing - I have the same question.....
I'm familiar with the way Gunnery breaks out, but what specific type of gunnery is applicable for this game - specifically for a heavy weapons expert.

The section on backgrounds reads -

Basic mission equipment for a heavy weapons expert includes a heavy pistol with HEJA rounds, a combat knife, a grenade launcher with six rounds of each grenade type, a flame thrower, and body armor with helmet array and transponder.

Additionally, my character has spent a bunch of DP (at various levels) developing his "weapon". Not sure what kind of weapon law enforcement would carry, and whether or not it fits into the weapons for the Heavy Weapons Expert.

Modern Ranged ...
1-Handed Energy =
Blaster Pistol, Electrostunner, Laser Dazzler, Laser Pistol,
Miniblaster, Minilaser, Sonic Stunner

1-Handed Projectile =
Holdout Gun, Needle Pistol, Pistol, Revolver

2-Handed Energy =

Assault Blaster, Electrorifle, Hunting Laser, Assault Laser, Sonic Stunrifle

2-Handed Projectile =
Assault Rifle, Hunting Rifle, Needle Rifle, Submachine Gun

Handheld Launchers =
Grenade Launcher, Grenade Launcher Attachment

Large Launchers =
SAM Launcher, Tankbuster Launcher

Spread Weapons =
Autoshotgun, Flame Pistol, Flame Repeater, Flame Rifle, Pacifier Pistol, Shotgun

Support Energy =
Light Support Blaster, Medium Support Blaster, Heavy Support Blaster, Light Support Laser, Medium Support Laser, Heavy Support Laser

Support Projectile =
Light Machine Gun, Medium Machine Gun, Heavy Machine Gun

Gunnery = vehicle-mounted weapons, or massive artillery pieces towed into position ... Your heavy weapons expert should develop his support weapony/spread weapony/handheld launchers as weapon skills, not gunnery skills

cormac_doyle · « **Reply #26 on:** December 30, 2008, 12:53:58 PM »

Note ... you develop the headline ("Support Energy" or "Large launcher" ... but select one speciality (Autoshotgun) ... all other weapons in the group can be used at a -10.

Since dev has now extended to 5th level ... here's the next "final" build ...

Emailing them to me at brent at ob1knorrb.com would be fine, or posting them as cormac_doyle did would be fine as well.

I'll reread the questions on the Gunnery skills and do some comparing between Bughunters and HARP Sci Fi and get some clarifications to you. Hopefully tomorrow, otherwise probably Friday (busy pretty much all day New Years Day)

Celedor · « **Reply #29 on:** December 31, 2008, 12:13:08 PM »

OK, here's my sheet, as you can see, I left all the XXXXX________ skills blank. . .any advice or comments on anything most welcome, this is my first ever HARP sci-fi character

Anyone else have their characters ready to send to me?
I know I've still got a few outstanding questions to answer. Also have a couple NPC's to do up and some creature stats for the introductory adventure, but I think we are getting close to being able to start.

TJ · « **Reply #31 on:** January 09, 2009, 04:03:50 AM »

Can I just send the notes for my final level? I did not save each progressive level.

Yup, that would be fine

Dax · « **Reply #33 on:** January 09, 2009, 01:56:33 PM »

I'm also nearly ready to send - but where to ?

My PC is a little bit weak
(ABC = Alien Bait Coming)
best skill around 50, have to check TPs again.

Then I have to condense the level development to a readable version
(remember the Sheet out of the Vault doesn't function with my computer,
so I had to go the long way).

But I'm getting faster and faster ...

ob1knorrb · « **Reply #34 on:** January 09, 2009, 09:40:16 PM »

You can email it to brent@ob1knorrb.com

Dranthor · « **Reply #35 on:** January 10, 2009, 07:24:10 PM »

Adrammelech · « **Reply #36 on:** January 13, 2009, 08:54:48 PM »

Did you send me your character? I don't seem to have it but I may have just missed the email

Never mind, found him. Saved him to the wrong folder.
