Title: Modern weapons table:
Post by: Commander Vyper on January 08, 2011, 08:42:24 PM
So after receiving the lovely rules from Uncle Mike a quick question.

If I wanted to bring Strange Aeons up to Delta Green modern timeframe, has anyone prepared a modern weapons table to meet the requirements of late 20thC. & 21st C. themed games.

Although this has not been done 'officially', Shocking Tales #2 will include a 'Primitive Weapons Table'...
shouldn't be too difficult to add a few heavy hitter guns and some cool ammo and make up a 'Modern' one...what weapons would be included? I'm feeling Rocket Launcher, Kevlar Body Armour, various Grenades and Hellfire Rounds for Shotguns...

The flamethrower's in Shocking Tales #1, I'm wondering could you 'upgrade' the existing weapons to represent their modern counterparts? An extra point of AP here and there, maybe a special fast reload rule? (ponders...)

The Flamethrower from S.T.#1 is a period weapon for sure...it would need an overhaul to make it onto a 'Modern' list. Ah humanity...we make much better killing toys each century... :?

That was my thought, Rather than pre war flamethrower that was as dangerous to the operative as to their targets, to a modern incinerator.

A more civilised weapon, for a more civilised age.. ;)
