Yeah, I think there's a website for that.

These are both interesting solutions... I'll look into that. Thanks! I especially like the Magic Effect for Flight. Oh, I'm not talking about jetpacks-- I want big ornithopter wings attached to a large, bulky harness. That is, my character wants them. I personally would be scared poopless...

That's great-- exactly what we were looking for in terms of clarification on the small vehicles. I agree that they should be built as personal equipment. Any ideas on how to add locomotive capability to personal equipment? Under the published rules, they're not allowed. And what about those...

Addendum: What size vehicle is a bicycle? It would seem to be Medium, but that would mean that I, a Medium-sized creature (albeit a rather small one), would be able to sit on it (receiving no cover, since it's Open), but would be unable to actually go anywhere on it. For that, I'd need a...

Ah. Gotcha. All glory to the Authors! So what about what we were discussing earlier? How would you make a small, one-man vehicle?

But do people ride structures? I just think this could use some clarification from the Authors On High.

I agree. I just hate house rules. I want there to be a built-in common-sense way for it to work using the rules as written. However, the fact that one part of the book says a Medium creature can't drive a Medium vehicle and another part makes mention of vehicles being the same size category...

Have to check that out later. The awesome part about building them as a Large vehicle is that the base move speed is 100! Yikes! I was going to buy Fast until I realized how fast they are already.

I think the point of massive damage is to reflect "system shock," but if you have no system, you have no shock. IMO, creatures with no CON score are not affected by massive damage rules. Cogs, in particular, need to (and probably do) have unique rules for that sort of them. E.g., they lose a...

*sigh* That was me.

Did you happen to hit upon a solution there? I'm having HERO flashbacks. Or flashsideways, I guess.

Thanks for the reply, but I can't shake this feeling that we could be having this conversation in person, what with you being the GM and all. (That's just a little aside for the zero other people reading this thread.) I guess part of my confusion is this: what is "Large"? How is that defined...

First of all, I recently got OGL Steampunk and think it's great. Now, my question. I'd like to make a small vehicle that only seats one person, but it doesn't look like this can be done. Size Large vehicles end up with too many hard points (i.e., extra space) to seem small enough, and a Size...
