So what's new? First and foremost almost all of the weapons and armors have been rebalanced in terms of damage, range, clip size, weight, cost, armor class, properties etc. The underlying idea being to a) bring them closer still to their crpg counterparts and b) to streamline the item list and make it easier to understand:
- the ammo list should now be more comprehensible (I hope).
- the heavy weapons/big guns category has had most of its prices adjusted, so starting characters specializing in that skill will have many more options to choose from.
- the Gauss Rifle has been reclassified as a small gun.
- almost all explosives have had their damage revised upward.
- similarly high end melee weapons have had a slight damage/functionality increase.
- all items previously labelled as 'military' now have an actual cost listed for easier reference.
- added stats for new items: Desert Eagle .44, SIG-Sauer 14mm Auto Pistol, PPK12 Gauss Pistol, Nuka-grenade, Fat Man Tactical Nuclear Catapult, T-45d Power Armor (revised), Advanced Power Armor.
Last but not least some changed and/or new Flaws and Edges:
Flaws:
Skilled (Major): The hero has spent more time improving his/her
skills than most; the character starts with more skill points to spend,
but doesn't learn new abilities as quickly as others. +5 skill points to
spend; only gain an advance after accumulating 7 Experience Points; cannot take Swift Learner Edge
One
Hander (Minor): One of the hero's hands is very dominant. He/she excels
with single-handed weapons, but two-handed weapons cause a problem. -2
to all attack rolls with two-handed weapons
Gifted (Major): The character has more innate abilities than most, so
he/she has not spent as much time honing his/her skills. +3 attribute
points to spend; -5 skill points; the character may never increase a
skill to a level greater than its linked attribute; on gaining an
advance only one skill currently less than its linked attribute may be
increased
(NB: The novice Edge Gifted has been renamed Educated)
Changed Edges:
More Criticals and Better Criticals have switched rank (veteran/heroic) + slightly adjusted:
- More Criticals (Fighting, Small Guns, Heavy Weapons or Explosives
d10, Luck): Gain a raise on a roll of 3 points over the target number
to hit for chosen weapon specialization
-
Better Criticals (Fighting, Small Guns, Heavy Weapons or Explosives d12,
Luck): Bonus damage die is d10 instead of d6 for chosen weapon
specialization
- Run ‘n Gun (Ag d8): No penalty for moving in the same round as firing a Snapfire weapon
New Edges:
(Seasoned) Sharpshooter (Sm d6, Notice d8): Range modifiers for Medium and Long range reduced to -1/-2
(Heroic) Survivalist (Sm d6, Vi d6): Survival Wild Die is d8
Removed Edges:
Crushing Blow, CPR
