The Glibber-Gun

The Glibber-Gun (GG) is of ancient origin, made by race now long ago dead. Imperial scientist have not got any clue how this weapon works. It is of strange design and, like a great, hollow cylinder in which a humanoid hand can fit. Once release it fires a greenish iridescent plasma which, upon impact, turns the target (must consist of living matter) into wobbly jelly with woodruff flavouring. A chemical analyses with confirm that the greenish mass is indeed wobbly jelly. The victims appearance is being preserved; really ghastly!

Neural Nanonics

Neural Nanonics are introduced in Peter F. Hamilton's The Reality Dysfunction, 950 pages of some the best Space Opera Science Fiction I have ever read! There is no way I can truly represent what Neural Nanonics are capable of here. If you are interested in much more detailed information, you should read the book (it comes in two parts by the way)

Neural Nanonics (NN) are super-enhanced versions of the MMDs introduced in SpaceMaster Companion I with none of the side effects. Unlike MMDs which flow around in the bloodstream, NN are grown on the body's central nervous system (including brain). A person outfitted with NN has complete control over them via simple thought processes. Unlike normal electronic equipment, nothing will adversly affect NN that will not adversly affect normal nerve impulses because they are genetically engineered programmable nerves. They can however, still be damaged and/or destroyed. Think of it as a guardian angel with a supercomputer as a brain and a high-paid union technician who works for free ... and likes it. NN are not self aware.

Neural Nanotics store programs and give feedback to the user via a HUD. This HUD is fed directly to brain's vision center. Thus total blackout will not affect a NN system. Each program running on the NN takes up Memory Storage Units (MU) and Processing Units (PU) capabilites. As each NN only has so many PU and MU, only a limited number of programs can be stored and running. Located in italics is the name of the program required to get the benefit.

Medical Monitoring - All monitoring abilities granted MMD type IV are available plus the ability to visualize the same information via a HUD-like interface. This is the base program. It comes free of charge and is hardwired into the NN system. You can't take it out, however it can be shutdown and not run. HUD display is a schematic of the body with OK areas in green, damaged areas in yellow, critical areas in flashing red and missing areas are black. Ancillary readouts are available as needed.
Combat - Automatic targeting interface while firing any weapon. All the user has to do is choose a target. The NN will then calculate trajectory, make minor adjustments to the hand and arm to line up the weapon and then shoot. What the user usually sees during combat with this program running are grid lines and target trajectories with threat assessment calculations. It will make recommendations, however it will not act on this information unless the program is told to or is in Primary Mode (see below). What this means in game terms is a bonus when using any weapon or form of combat including Martial Arts and Adrenal Defense. Cost = Rating * 10,000 credits. PU = Rating * 5, MU = Rating * 10, Bonus as per skill development. Rating used cannot exceed inherit capabilities of user. ie. If the user only has 5 ranks in Martial Arts, he can only use five ranks of the program. However, if he also has 10 ranks in Adrenal Defense, he can use up to 10 ranks of the program with his Adrenal Defense, too. This can make for some really bad-ass Armsmen.
Medical Repairs - As per MMDs type IV except you can override any and all functions. Cost = 50,000 credits. PU = 20, MU = 50
Physical Booster - Increase any physical stat bonus as per rating bonus. Continued use of Physical Boosters can have detrimental effects on the body. For every round over 60 continuous rounds use, reduce Temporary stat by 1 until proper medical service has been performed to repair the damaged tissue. For every round used, there must be a 3 round rest break where the user does nothing physical. Once this rest period is over, use can begin again with no side effects. This program works by shunting the body's own storage of hormones and endocrines to the needed organs. (To keep it simple a rating 1 will affect a user as a rating 10 will) Cost = Rating * 50,000 credits. PU = Rating, MU = Rating, Bonus = 3 * rating. One physical stat/Booster program. This bonus is applied to the Stat Bonus.
Sense Booster - Increase sensitivity of any sense as per rating bonus. Cost = Rating * 7500 credits. PU = Rating, MU = Rating, Bonus as per skill development. One sense/Booster program. Adds bonus to perception for that sense. Wide range of filtering options available at 10% per option
Camera - Used to create a Sensevise. Duration is based off of rating. User must have working set of senses to use this program or the resulting Sensevise will not have those senses when played back. This can cut down on total Sensevise storage requirements by 1/5 per sense not used. Cost = Rating * 100 credits. PU = 1, MU = Rating * 50, 100 Hours / Rating.
Playback - User can playback a Sensevise. User has complete control of zoom, speed, sense intensity, etc. A Sensevise can be sent between users via the Personal Communication program at 100 Hours/round. It is not possible to view a scene in "Realtime" between two users. While the camera is active, the Sensevise file is "open" and cannot be read. See Mind Discipline below. Cost = 1000 credits. PU = 1, MU = Rating * 50 (or fraction thereof), 100 Hours / Rating.
Personal Communications - As per Psion List Telepathy as long as targets are all NN capable. Range is limited to 10 meters. Uses special "NN Channel" for communications. This channel is undetectable via standard means. Cost = 5000 credits. PU = 2, MU = 2
Mind Discipline - As per Psion List Mind Discipline without psions 1, 8, 9, 10, and 12. See Camera and Playback above. Cost = Rating * 10,000 credits. PU = Rating, MU = Rating, Rating of program determines level psion emulated. Must have Camera and Playback for appropriate functions.
Body Discipline - As per Psion List Body Discipline without psions 15, 30 and 10 on the Additional Psion List. For every psion emulated, there is a physical cost. The body can only do so much. As such, the user only has the capability of using the equivalent of the average all Physical Stats (Temps) in total psion emulation. You use a 10th level ability and your average is 90, then you only have 80 left. These points are regained as psion points are regained, only you have to eat, too. Cost = Rating * 10,000 credits. PU = Rating, MU = Rating, Rating of program determines level psion emulated. Must have appropriate Physical Booster program to use this program and its restrictions also apply.
Metabolic Control - As per Psion List Metabolic Control without psions 6, 7, 12, 14 and 20+. Capabilites limited by program rating. For every psion emulated, there is a physical cost. The body can only do so much. As such, the user only has the capability of using the equivalent of the average all Physical Stats (Temps) in total psion emulation. You use a 10th level ability and your average is 90, then you only have 80 left. These points are regained as psion points are regained, only you have to eat, too. Cost = Rating * 10,000 credits. PU = Rating, MU = Rating, Rating of program determines level psion emulated. Must have Medical Repairs program to use this program and Physical Booster restrictions apply.
Interface - As per Psion List Interface as long as the target machine is NN capable. Capabilites limited by program rating. Cost = Rating * 10,000 credits. PU = Rating, MU = Rating, Rating of program determines level psion emulated.
NanoScan - Taking control of someone else's NN system is virtually impossible, however viruses can still be real killers. The NanoScan program is designed by the company that geneered NN and thus is the best on the market. There are others out there, but only the NanoScan can "guarantee the ability to shut down a program if it starts behaving badly." This guarantee is backed by a lifetime warrenty as long as the latest version is installed. Virtual Humanitronics will fix or replace any part of the body that has sustained damage with an equal or better part assuming the victim is still alive and servicable. If not, then the victim's beneficiary gets twice the purchase price of the NN system. In addition to this feature, it scans all incoming communications and programs and alerts the user if anything looks suspicious. This program is free as well as upgrades which come out about twice a year. PU = 1, MU = 5
Any physical skill (any skill with a physical stat attached) can be programmed and loaded into a user's NN. Skill bonus is rating based. Combat skills are not covered with this category. Cost = Rating * 30,000 credits. PU = Rating, MU = Rating * 2, Bonus as per skill development.

Neural Nanonics Specifications

Total PU = Average of all Temporary Mental Stats (not bonuses)
Total MU = Total of all Temporary Mental Stats (not bonuses)
A program can be loaded and started running in 1 Round / 5 ratings of a program. ie. A rating 10 program takes 2 rounds to load and start running. Once a program is running, all commands are executed immediately. Giving a command to a NN program takes negligable time.
Any program can be kept running indefinately with just about any given set of conditions to initiate some action. ie. You could have the Metabolic Control running and a command that says, "When stunned, then UnStun me."
A program can be put into "Priority Mode." Priority Mode gives the program complete control of the body so the mind can work on things. ie. Putting a driving program in Priority Mode allows the program to handle all tasks of driving the vehicle with little or no input from the user while the user does other things ... like scan the surrounding area for hostiles.
If you are using cybernetic enhancements in your game, then Neural Nanonics should be a welcome addition as it gives the user the ability to programmatically control different aspects of his enhancements. You could use an IR image enhancement program to tie directly into cyber-eyes. You could also run multiple combat programs, each controlling a different cyber-arm. The possibilites are endless.
Neural Nanonics take 5 weeks to grow and cost 500,000 credits. A simple injection of genetically engineered nanites is all that is needed. During the five week period, the user will occasionally see different diagnostic programs running in his field of vision. If at anytime during the incubation period a warning message flashes, the user must contact the supplier to get them fixed. Incubation stops if a warning is displayed. During the five week period, roll percentile once a week. On a 15 or less, a warning message appears. On -150 or less, the host is incompatible and cannot use Neural Nanonics. He will get a full refund. Once the incubation is completed, a short training class (usually 2 weeks) is conducted to assist the new users in the proper operation of Neural Nanonics. A new character starting out can choose Neural Nanonics as ALL background options and bypass all of this.
Neural Nanonics get a +50 resistance roll against anything that would normally affect the person on a nerve level. If, however, the NN fail that resistance roll, the Neural Nanonics are destroyed and all Potential Mental Stats are reduced by an amount equal to the amount failed by (Note: this can kill the user if any mental stat falls to 0). If they pass the resistance roll, then they are unaffected and can go about their duties. When making resistance rolls for NN, treat their level as equal to the Average of all Mental Stat Bonuses based off of Temp stats only. No race mods.
Electronic Warfare will affect NN, but only at -50. And as NN have redundant sytems built in (it IS part of the brain), the EW must keep trying every round to keep them knocked out.
Medical Scanners can detect NN at -50 (during a medical diagnostic, it might be in the character's interest to have them respond to the scanner in which case there is no penalty). Multiscanners at -75 and repair scanners might as well not even try ... -100. Shipboard Sensors are at -25.
A complete memory download can be accomplished in as much as 10 minutes (depending on age). 10 minutes is normal for an eighty year old individual. This "Memory Clone" can be stored in a much larger NN capable machine. The memory would be there and able to interact with the outside world, but the essence of the individual would be gone. Reversing the process is impossible because NN grow as the brain does. You would need an EXACT duplicate of the dead brain to store it in. This is utterly impossible as no two brains develop the same way through life.
Characters can write their own programs for a Neural Nanonics system. The language to write your own programs is NeuroNan. Use the rules and guidelines in the Players Book for such projects. Note that this could introduce bugs in the program ... which could be lethal. Virtual Humanatronics' warrenty will not cover programs written by non-certified personal. To become a certified programmer, you must make a roll of 101 in Computer Technics and have NeuroNan to 10 in order to pass the test. Once you are certified, you have to re-qualify every time a new version of NanoScan comes out. First time applicants are charged 1000 credits and re-cerfication costs 500. The requirements are the same for each re-certification.

Harmonic/Equilibrium Disruptor (HED)

20th level attack:
The Harmonic/Equilibrium Disruptor is a device (or set of devices) that build up harmonic vibrations within rigid structures causing a nerve disrupting tone to personnel within that structure.
The activation devices are small (0.05 to 0.1 Kg) plunger-like resonators that are attached to the outside of a building or structure (1 per 300 cumet volume). They can be activated by timer or remote. For every percent under the needed amount for the structure, the level of the attack is reduced by an equal amount. The level of the attack cannot be raised above 20th level. It takes 5 rounds to get up a tone of sufficient strength for the attack to be successful. Once a tone is established, it can only be maintained for 1 round because the tone is also detrimental to the plungers themselves.

If the tone is not cancelled within 3 rounds after establishment, each plunger must make a RR vs 20th level or be destroyed. Each round the tone is maintained, each occupant in the structure will continue to make RR roles (whether conscious or not) and results applied as below. Note: As plungers begin to be destroyed, the level of the attack may be reduced.

Example: 10,000 ton warehouse = 30,000 cumets
100 resonators are required. Due to an accident during the last mission, only 85 are now available. (85 / 100) x 20 = 17th level attack against all personnel within the structure.

If RR failed:
1 round of unconciousness for every 1% failed by, followed by a -75 penalty to all actions due to headache and ringing ears. This penalty will drop off one per round until completely gone. The represents damping of the residual resonance inside the victim's the head. Should the victim fail by more than 100, roll an "E" Impact Critical adding 20 to the result and converting all rounds to minutes (ie. Stunned 2 rounds becomes Stunned 2 minutes) and ignoring all "non-head" strikes.

If RR saved:
At (% passed by - 75) due to headache and ringing ears. The penalty will drop off by one every round until the penalty is completely gone. This respresents damping of the residual resonance inside the victim's head.

If a helmet is worn, the AT of the armor times 2 pertaining to the helmet is used as a bonus to the resistance roll (the helmet must be on and sealed at the time of the attack). Armor bonuses vs. Energy are not valid because this is NOT an energy attack. "This is a Physical attack by the atmosphere!"

Example: Vernon McJagger, 13th level Armsman and trusty side-kick of "Plasma" John Smith, is inside his house eating a sandwich and watching the Power Raking Finals on the 3V. Unbeknowest to him, that dirty dog of a foe, Wilford P. Crank, has attached 83 HED resonators along the outside of his house. These 83 resonators should generate a tone of sufficient strength to knock poor Vernon out. Using the table on page GP95 we see that Vernon must roll a 69 to stay conscious. He rolls a 74 and is indeed conscious but at ((74 - 69) - 75) = -70. If Vernon had had his AT20 on, he would have only been at -30. Poor Vernon.

A New Combat Attack Resolution System

If you are like me, you hate looking up the gazillions and gazillions of charts, cross references and the like to find out if you hit the beer bottle on the fence 50 feet away. Well, with this system (still in its infancy ... not even play tested yet) you can have the speed and realism similiar to the Silent Death system.

Weapon Attack Die

The first thing to throw out is the percentile rolls for damage and critical determination. What I have done is checked all the standard damage charts and generated a list of all the different type of weapons classes and ordered them by the amount of possible damage that can be done by these weapon classes. I then sat down and figured the average damage that can be done with the various dice available, such as d4, d6, d8, etc. I then assigned that value to the weapon classes in increasing order for Mk1. For each of the subsequent Mk#'s, I added one like die to the total. This will be called the Weapon Attack Die. Don't worry about the Damage Threshold Value just yet.

                         Weapon Attack Dice
                Mk1     Mk2     Mk3     Mk4     Mk5             Dam Thr

Sweeps                  2d4     3d4     4d4     5d4             L
Entangle        d6      2d6     3d6     4d6     5d6             L
Grenade         d8      2d8     3d8     4d8     5d8             L
Laser           2d4     3d4     4d4     5d4     6d4             H
Strikes                 3d4     4d4     5d4     6d4             M
Small Proj      d10     2d10    3d10    4d10    5d10            M
Flamer          d10     2d10    3d10    4d10    5d10            M
Stun/Disr       d12     2d12    3d12    4d12    5d12            H
Fall/Crush      2d6     3d6     4d6     5d6     6d6             H
Shotgun         2d8     3d8     4d8     5d8     6d8             H
Blaster         d20     2d20    3d20    4d20    5d20            H
Melee           2d10    3d10    4d10    5d10    6d10            H

Critical        A       B       C       D       E

Criical charts are broken up into 12 different sections by percentile. Simply roll a d12 and count down by the roll to the appropriate box. No more percentiles! See how easy it was?

Now you may be asking, "How many hit points did I do?" Well, the answer to that is quite simple also. See the Damage Threshold Value (DTV) on the far right of the chart above? The 'H' means that the value on the highest die you rolled is the number of hit points of you did. "Only a maximum of 4 points on any hit?" you may asked. Well, no. If you had rolled, for instance, a 2 and two 4's then you would have done 8 points ... and got 2 crits for the two fours! However, if you had only rolled a 2 and two threes, then you would have done only six points and no crits. Trust me on this, it will balance out. If you check the Laser Attack chart in the Tech Book, you will see that the maximum amount of damage you can do with a Mk5 Laser is 25 against AT1. This works (I think). Likewise, an 'L' means the lowest die rolled is the damage and an 'M' means the medium die rolled (If only two values come up with a DTV of 'M' on an odd number of dice, then the lower dice are the Medium Value).

If there is ever a chance in a game that you can never do damage, no matter how lucky you can get, it is with the SpaceMaster rules. However, with this system, it is possible to do damage no matter what a foes DV is and no matter what weapon you have. If you max out on all of your Attack Dice, then you automatically hit taking the DTV as you would normally. The reverse is also true: if you roll the lowest possible with your Attack Dice then you automatically miss and ... I am still figuring out how to handle fumbles with the different weapons for this system.

Range Modifications

Range Mods are also quite simple to figure. See the chart below for modifications to the Attack Roll for range. Calculate ranges based on what is shown in the Tech Book.

Point Blank     +1
Short            0
Medium          -2
Long            -6

Base Defensive Value

The Base Defensive Value (BDV) for a character is his/her inherent ability to dodge, shrug off, or otherwise avoid getting hit. It is as follows on this chart.

Armor Type      BDV

    1           10
    2            9
    3           12
    4           13
    5           12
    6           13
    7           14
    8           15
    9           14
   10           15
   11           16
   12           17
   13           16
   14           17
   15           18
   16           19
   17           18
   18           19
   19           20
   20           21

As you can see, I have left in the inherent bad luck of the character in AT2.

The Total Defensive Value (DV) for a character is calculated as follows:

DV = (Base DV) + (Adjusted Qu Bonus / 5)

The Adjusted Quickness Bonus is what is left after donning armor. This DV is what a foe must get over on his Attack Roll. The only alteration to this chart is the Martial Arts Sweeps Attack. Reverse the numbers on this chart to take into the account the reason there are even two different forms of Martial Arts in the game.

Skill Bonus

Now, on to the Skill Bonus and how they get used in this system. To calculate a character's Attack Bonus, one must first divide his total Skill Bonus with the weapon by 10. This Skill Bonus includes the usual stuff: stats, level bonuses, rank bonuses, etc. It does not include any weapon bonuses. Once it is divided by 10, round it off to the nearest whole integer. For example, your character has a 93 in Laser Pistol. After dividing you have 9.3. After rounding you have 9. If you had had a 95 or higher (up to 104) then you would have a 10. This is your Skill Bonus and is added to your Attack Die. From the Previous example, you would then have a 3d4 + 9 to get over the DV of 10. As you can see (and as you might expect), someone with no armor and no quickness mod being shot at with a Mk2 Laser Pistol stands a good chance of being shot.

Modern Master Weapons Chart

David F. M. Britten (Pendragon) has graciously donated the following Weapon Charts to the FELIX SpaceMaster Page. I have looked them over and found them to be quite complete and very useful for those of you who are running a modern SpaceMaster game. These charts would even come in handy with little or no modification in a far future scenario as well. You can either drop the Mk# down by one or decrease any bonuses that come with the weapon. This is a chart I wish I had had years ago when first playing. I can assure you it will definately end up in my homebrew rules folder.

You can reach Dave at D.Britten2@gcal.ac.uk

I have only made one modification to the charts. I have deleted the Assault Weapon Category and merged it with the Machinegun Category, because we all know that any weapon can be used as an assault weapon. All you have to do is assault someone with it. Besides, I hate furthering the cause of the liberal media. :)

Thanks Dave.

This list of weapons are for use with a modern day genre of space master. They are scaled to do more damage than would be if the weapons were used in a deep future genre. This is because the repairable damage cause by firearm attacks is much less today.

Notes:

1. Masers are microwaves amplified through stimulated emission of radiation.

2. These weapons have an other effect. If a maser is fired at a electronic device, the device must make a -50 RR or be destroyed ( This does affect Androids).

Located here are some links to a few other sites I have dug up on the internet. The last couple of months, the content of this page has been getting fairly stale. So I thought I might spruce it up some. These sites contain statistics and pricing for modern day armor and other theifly type things. This list is duplicated on the Equipment Page.

The "Schrapnellgewehr"

The Schrapnellgewehr is likewise called the GNA (gravity nonlinear accelerator or "gna - the last thing your'll enemy will say!"). This is an assault weapon which accelerates in an elliptical gravitational field small discs. This discs are made out of ceramic. This discs are brought to a high speed and to very fast rotation. This makes the GNA a devasting weapons. Only a society which is capable of controlling (like the Drakarians) gravity can build this kind of weapon. They schould be scarcely available (if at all) in the Imperium. This weapon is only available as an assault carabiner.
