I'm still thinking about that.
Ideally, it would have all of those points in the template, so I could make multiple types of armor.

I think it would need a minimum defense, a damage reduction, an integrity, an encumbrance.

Thinking about it, the defense pool is more about your effort to resist being hit, while armor is absorbing the hit, so maybe it would reduce the pool and provide a damage reduction?

Ok, I think this is how it'll look, after looking at the weapon templates for comparison.

Type (This is normally where you put what stat is used, I guess I'll just put "armor")
Wound Modifier (How much it reduces incoming damage)
Weight (How heavy it is, uses similar rules to trying to use heavier weapons than your strength allows.)
Areas Protected (What body parts it protects.)
Melee Modifier (If it functions differently in melee than against ranged attacks. Kevlar, for instance, would have a poor melee modifier.)
Bonuses (Any special junk here, maybe the possibility of clockwork or steam powered armor.)
Integrity (How much damage it takes before being rendered useless.)

Oh look, I have a steam account.
Might as well chalk it up to Pathos.
As this point we might as well invoke interpretive dance and call it a day.

Avis-Mergulus and Corsair have been added to the roster; to see the armor template, view Corsair's sheet, although he asked for light armor, so it doesn't exactly have a whole lot in it.

That said, I now have 9 crewmen ready (10 if you count that one guy) so I'll be sorting out teams and starting the first match in a bit.

Mastahcheese, can you add my character's age and gender to the sheet? I just noticed that and fixed it.

I didn't know you could sign up with a request for armor and only read the 'pick two weapons' part.

Err, oops? At least the ships have an armory. Good work with the customized art, MC. You make it look like it just came with the sheet-package. :P

Maybe in a bit, I've got some stuff to take care of first, but I'll see if I can get round to it.

I actually wasn't planning on adding armor until someone asked.
And thanks, I just made the little armor picture in about 20 seconds.

Would you like to change it for next round?

I'm happy with my dual-kukris thanks. I wish we had more aptly named weapons here in the east like you west-folk, but because it seems our history in the Phil only generally spans to the Spanish area... >:I

And nope. I will invest on that one point in dual wielding!

I think they are lamenting the lack of knobkerrie.

Spoiler: Character Sheet (click to show/hide)


Sorry that I couldn't use the pretty formatting, I'm posting from a mobile device.

Edit: I forgot about the general skills, is this good?

Should I assume that your skills should be
ranged 1
-rifles 2
Gunnery 1
-mounted guns 1

Since you have to take the general skill before the specialization?
Otherwise you're good.

Right, how can I get started with producing a ship? I dont really see anywhere guides on ships for this.
