What to get the London Gnome who has everything...

Harrods will be the official stockist of Miguel Cabellero clothing. "So what?" you might ask. Miguel Cabellero is a Colombian company that specializes in personal armour but considering that their clothes will be sold in Harrods, you know it aint gonna be cheap! I'll bet those Colombians k...

Okay so I'm flicking through the rules and having some random thoughts... Just to recycle the rules for this, all exploding rounds have a listed penetration value that is the Minimum armour value that is penetrated and the actual penetration is the value listed for the round Plus a roll of 2D6. You ...

Unfortunately, the Arpad didn't get enough interest for the company to put it into production so it sort of faded from existence at the end of the 1980s. At one point it was being offered through the Italian company Franchi but even with a well known name like Franchi behind it, the Arpad just didn'...

Ah yes, the advertising blitz for the AA-12 still goes on, ya gotta love it! Don't get me wrong, it's a fine shotgun, but that idiot on the clip from YouTube does little to no research into the subjects he waffles on about. It's not a new weapon at all having been originally developed by Max Atchiss...

Hehehe, I've been looking into that :D I used to have an account with a free web hosting site but they merged with another group and the service wasn't very good because they were still testing everything. I should really have another look at them to see if they have fixed up their problems. Cheers,...

Yeah, I didn't want to use an image hosting site for two reasons, first, I wanted to keep the formatting in the Word doc so that it resembles the weapons cards from the game books and second, sometimes they have restrictions on bandwidth usage and so the picture links don't show up on the linking we...

BAH! I posted the wrong rule! :oops: This is the section that covers Linden's query... Serious Wounds: A serious wound reduces a character's effective Strength by half (rounding the final Strength rating down) and causes an additional immediate 2-point reduction of the character's Initiative rating ...

For those who want the specific rule from Twilight: 2000 Ver 2.2 I've pasted it below. (For those unfamiliar with it, the 2.2 system uses D20 for task resolution with 5 levels of difficulty - EASY, AVERAGE, DIFFICULT, FORMIDABLE, IMPOSSIBLE). I can't give you the specific page number unfortunately b...

Radio stations of uncertain origin

Have a listen to recording 6 on the following list http://listverse.com/bizarre/top-10-incredible-recordings/ and then head on over to Wiki for some background info http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_stations Doesn't that all sound absolutely like some Dark Minion project!? :shock: Cheers, Kevin

Street Tech

Found this site and thought it could be a useful place for showing what Proles may improvise to make their lives a little more bearable. The more interesting stuff starts about a quarter of the way down the page http://www.kk.org/streetuse/archives/improvised_technology/ A few other interesting bits...

[slaps own forehead] DOH! :x I completely forgot the AN-94. When operating in 2-rd burst mode it fires at a ROF of 1800rpm, again using the idea that the projectiles have left the barrel before any recoil is felt by the shooter thereby significantly increasing accuracy. The problem with most RPGs I ...

I should have been a bit clearer in my explanation. Some cyberpunk game websites claimed that the cost of changing over to caseless ammo from cased ammo would be too expensive to be worth the effort. So it wasn't the cost of the ammunition but the cost of changing to a new type of ammo that they cla...

Sin City books

As a new owner of Sin City Volume One and Volume Three (I bought Vol 3 from an Amazon listed bookseller less than two months ago and found Vol 1 on eBay the other week) I must concur with Morthrai's earlier comments. Good material by Mike Marchi and Geoff Skellams badly let down by Dynasty Presentat...
