... Interesting. I believe it uses TW2000 1st edition rules, but will check. I don't have the FFS book, but I do have Guns Guns Guns and am thinking that since...

... i played a little twilight 2300 AD and the rule set was entirely goofy. i don't think you'll find the actual rule much help though the flavour text might...
Ah, my two favourite games - Aliens and T2K! I believe that 2300AD uses the GDW house rules which is essentially the same for Traveller:TNE, Cadilacs &...
According to Andrew, on 21-7-08 04:04 the word on the street was... ... These don't match with the FF&S rules very well, is my experience. -- Gurth@... -...

... DC may not be that scary unless the slug hits a bone or something hard in your kit. real high vel things tend to carry most of their energy out with them...
Here is a design I did for my friend's 2300AD campaign. In the Australian Land Warfare Conference of 2004 SAAB presented a futuristic SMG/PDW concept based on ...
... I wouldn't be so sure. PCCS tends to model DC as proportional to muzzle energy vs. range, but there's way more to it. The wound ballistics of the round...

Recently there were talks of converting games in other systems to PCCS. 'Guns, guns, guns' and '2300AD' were mentioned. I'm curious, how would you guys compare...

... Not quite. The phenomena originally observed with the 5.56mm was fragmentation, not keyholing. (A "keyhole" is another term for a bullet which tumbles ...
Ever play Car Wars? That had what could generously be called an abstracted system... A human has 3 damage points, a light pistol does one, a heavy pistol does...
