Hi all, I just got a web page so y'all can see the files I'm working on. It's <http://www.geocities.com/ursus31337/>, and currently I have tome tables in Excel and notes on the tables in Word. Not counting my currently half-baked rules for 3D, my ideas for the SJ3E combat system differ from the SW system in the following ways (this does not include actual combat, just maneuvering): Ships have a maximum speed, which nothing can get them past (except to go to spelljamming speed, which requires that there is nothing inside of Visual range (see my previous post)). The ship has 3 variable stats - ER (base 10), MC modifier (modifies pilot's Profession (SJ Pilot) checks), and Initiative modifier (base 0 + pilot's Initiative modifier). Of course the ship has more stats, but those are the ones that interact directly with the combat system. I'm thinking maybe the pilot can only make 1 maneuver per round because ships are so bulky, but that's really a playtest question. Please let me know if my ideas are great or sucky or whatever just SAY SOMETHING!!! Sorry, I just have much better focus when I'm getting feedback. An email every other day would keep me pumping this stuff out like a major artery (eww). PS, I get the list in digest form, so if you've responded to a post today and are wondering why the hell I'm screaming, it's because I haven't read it yet. Also, the attached files are Word and Excel, so if your computer can't understand them, I'll change it to an HTML file that you can load into any browser (yay). Peace and Wombats, -Colin vH
