Vehicles in Combat

[IanBruntlett]

OK, a confession to make. I've never handled vehicle combat - either in the ground or in space. I've just ad libbed instead. Prior to Traveller I only played 2nd Edition AD&D.

Could someone explain the rules on p66-68 of the Core Rule Book's combat rules to me? Maybe just a nudge in the right direction, clearing up some misunderstandings.

Hmm...
...after further reading and reflection, I think I understand the vehicle rules.

Well, don't keep it to yourself - enlighten the rest of us!

Duly noted. I'm short of time at the moment. However, I'll squeeze it into my schedule

Much like you get "HOWTO" documents in Linux, I've created small (1 or 2 sides of A4 paper) "Tell me abouts" to help me jog my memory when running a game and I'm under pressure. I was hoping that when the new MG web site is up and running that there will be a place to post such articles.

Speaking of which - the MGT Aids Yahoo group has some nice flow charts for combat. Not sure about vehicle combat - though if there's not, you might consider to contributing your white paper...
