This is a weekly posting with GURPS vehicles (and the like) to the GURPSnet mailing list. I grant the permission for all non-commercial redistribution of my work, but I would like to know if you put it on a website or the like. The files at omeyer.gmxhome.de are down until I fix the automatic PDF generation, which should be one of these days - see sourceforge.net/projects/gurpsml Onno Meyer, 2013-05-27
Space Marine Grav Dumper Mk.II v1.0 (TL13) Copyright 2013 by Onno Meyer The Grav Dumper is used by spacemobile combat engineers to haul spoil or rubble. Usually the contragrav flyer is deployed by dropship, but it is capable of orbital flight. The skip has a volume of 1.36 cubic meters, perhaps two or three tons if the material is heaped. The one-man cockpit is mounted high for good visibility and the powerplant and thrusters are in the rear. For high speed travel, the skip must be empty and locked into position. Subassemblies: Body +3, Superstructure +2. Powertrain: Two 20,000-lb. vectored mega reactionless thrusters; four 50,000-lb. contragrav generators; 4,000-kW super MHD fusion reactor; 630,000-kWs rechargeable power cell. Occ: 1 RCS. Cargo: 96 cf open. Armor F RL B T U Body: 4/160* 4/160* 4/160* 4/160* 4/160* Superstructure: 4/160* 4/160* 4/160* 4/160* * Plus DR 500 force screen. Equipment: Body: Medium-range neutrino communicator with scrambler; two long-range gravity ripple communicators with scramblers; two 20-mile AESAs, LPI; two 20-mile PESAs; 20-mile multiscanner; precision navigation instruments; two IFF; two inertial navigation systems; two terrain-following radars; two advanced radar/laser detectors; deceptive jammer, rating 5, three C8 hardened minicomputers; terminal; neural induction field; compact fire suppression system; cyberswarm hive (grav flyer, solar AA cell, cleaning swarm); cyberswarm hive (gravflyer, solar AA cell, construction swarm); cyberswarm hive (gravflyer, solar AA cell, repair swarm); forcelock; FSR 5 heavy-duty, stealth screen (DR 500); two 1-man full life systems; crashweb; gravity web. External: Basic emission cloaking, basic sound baffling; basic stealth; radiation shielding. Statistics Size: 10'x6'x6' Payload: 5,000 lbs. Lwt.: 10,000 lbs. Volume: 250 cf Maint.: 4 man-hours Price: $794,725 HT: 13. HPs: 375 Body, 150 Superstructure aSpeed: 2,070 aAccel: 80 aDecel: 22 aMR: 5.5 aSR: 3 sAccel: 4 G sMR: 4 Design Notes Body is 200 cf, with underbelly skids, very good streamlining, and lifting body. Superstructure is 50 cf. Structure is medium, standard. Armor is standard composite. Sealed. Computerized controls. 20.7 cf of empty space. Empty weight is 5,000 lbs. The vehicle uses the design rules from Vehicles [second edition, third printing, July 2010 errata], Robots, VXi, and VXii (including the armor volume rule) with the text format from Vehicles Lite. Next Week: An excavator. _______________________________________________ GurpsNet-L mailing list <[email protected]> http://mail.sjgames.com/mailman/listinfo/gurpsnet-l
