--------------------------
The Orion Militia has begun production of dedicated combat frames in the past year. The most common of these frames is the mkII Meerkat. While similar in loadout and combat capability to the UMFL's ST-07 Chubs, the Meerkat ditches extra armor for additional speed making them ideal for hit and run tactics.
These are extremely versatile frames pilot, do not underestimate their capabilities.
Stats:
Spectre SMG: 3d6Rd
Heavy Knuckle: 1d6Rh
1500hp Twin-Turbocharged Engine: 2d6G
1x SSR
How are you getting the Red dice stats for this frame? Is the Heavy Knuckle considered a split system between Direct and Hand-to-Hand range?
ReplyDeleteYou're basically right, but instead of splitting the weapon traditionally, he's basically just shifted one of the dice to the direct fire weapon to make it stronger. Seems like a house rule type of thing, since the last ruleset I read didn't say you could do that. Still, I like the idea: the important thing to note is that you can lose the h2h weapon and still have 3 red dice, which is definitely more advantageous than traditional split. However, I think there should be some compromise there considering the advantage.
DeleteActually it is in the rules! You have one normal direct fire system with 2d6 dice, and then a split system that has 1d6 direct fire and 1d6 hth. If you lose the split system you still lose two dice.
DeleteI know how split systems work.
DeleteYeah I get that, I just don't see how a set of knuckle dusters can count as half a Direct Fire system :) Hence my question about how he is justifying the 3d6Rd.
