five parsecs from home - small vehicles/ flyers rules

[Bloggard]

was wondering about using this set of rules with the star wars legion range (coz I like the figures and what-nots), but looking at a flip-through review, there don't seem to be any rules to cover small vehicles / flyers etc (i.e. jet-bikes, land-speeders / skiffs etc).

any comment appreciated.

Nope, although I don't know if there are any in the trailblazers expansion.

You could always ask Ivan directly, either on the FPFH facebook group or on the Nordic Weasel Discord server: https://discord.gg/vFVmE59

cheers Hubba.

I suspect not then (I've looked at the expansion notes; doesn't seem likely).

Have been in touch with Ivan before via email, so, yes, could try him.

Yeah, my vehicles have just become static scenery pieces, which seems a shame.

The planet 28 2nd edition thread - here - mentions vehicles.

I've never looked at those rules, so have no idea if they'd work in another system, but could be worth a look

thanks Zemjw - not aware of those rules. Will look into them.

should mention: Blasters and Bulkheads is very star wars-y, and has vehicle rules. The other rules from that stable are in the same kind of area too.
Could do with a better name tho', even allowing for D&D -type alliteration.

I'm even looking at the 1980s Star Wars Minature Battles book - like the 'crunch' of that era's rules a lot, but they don't cover the later films / content, so you'd have to home-brew a lot of stats etc.

But I like a lot of what I'm reading about 5 parsecs, and the presentation of the h/copy book is lovely, from what I can see. But without vehicle coverage it wouldn't really be what I'm after.
Might pick it up anyway ...

I can't sya for sure that planet 28 and FPFH will beldn together, But I did design the whole system to be easily hackable so you could life the vehicle mechanics out quite easily.

ah, right - had missed that was the idea of mentioning them up thread. Interesting thought.
