What would that means for vehicles? * There is no reason to develop vehicle-mounted weapons. All weapons in the Evil Overlord's vehicles are re-purposed tools or hunting weapons on improvised mountings.
Propably it is one of the few high tech backgrounds, where ramming and boarding are viable tactics in fights between military vehicles.
Propably some nowerdays military vehicles have chances against evil overlord vehicles.
* Once the Evil Overlords get their hands on the vehicle, they will install weapons to intimidate a population. Unfortunately the VE rules don't have vehicle-scale nerve guns. Stunners and paralysis beams to take captives? Screamers and flamers?
I suppose you can put in guns with gas rounds. Their gases can have all sorts of effects, sleep gas to take captives, halucinogens to create confusion, ect.
* The Evil Overlords won't let their henchmen have all the "fun". VIP quarters on frontline vehicles?
Either that, or they could insist on steering or shooting themself. _______________________________________________ GurpsNet-L mailing list <[email protected]> http://mail.sjgames.com/mailman/listinfo/gurpsnet-l
