*BLUSH" Gosh, Shucks tweren't nothing.... Ta for the post, such feedback
is greatly appreciated. The difficulty isn't making new systems, its
adhering to the principle of "minimum change": trying to retain the
falvour with the fewest possible additional rules.
Hence the Gatling's a re-useable submunition: The Plasma Torp's
something like the SM Launcher From Hell: And the Hellbore's just a
Torpedo that can, under the right circumstances, do a lot of internals
(just by allowing it to re-roll on a 6 as per a beam...) Those, plus a
logical extension to the MT missile rules (adding magazines and
launchers, so both SMs and MTMs have both racks and launcher/mags
available) is all that was needed.
