There was someone related to the Yahoo T2K group that was doing a Pacific WW2 campaign a while ago. I remember reading an AAR. You could probably find a link to the person there.

I posted on my PDF page a PDF of a now-defunct site someone did on WWII (and the Arab-Israeli Wars) in T2K v1 rules.

Could you tell me what the name of the pdf is please Paul? I had a quick look but couldn't see anything that specifically stated WW2 or Arab-Israeli Wars.

Default What is the rule system(s) for statting out vehicles?

What are the pertinent rules and formulas for building the stats for various vehicles for the V1 and 2.2 systems any way? As much as people come over here asking for stats on weapons and vehicles seems like some tutorials are I order.

Weapons rules are the most straight froward; the formulas used are presented in the V2 Infantry Weapons Guide, spread out across two pages.

The key values you need are

Bullet weight
Receiver type (Single shot, Bolt action, lever action, pump action, semi auto, full auto, Single action revolver, double action revolver)
Weapon weight
Weapon length
Muzzle velocity
Rate of fire (for automatic weapons)

Fire Fusion & Steel has slightly different stats. Any weapon I tried to match in FFS using real world values is either 30-50% heavier (if matching capability) or is underpowered (if matching physical size, weight of weapon & projectile).

no problem Paul, I didn't know anyone had done something on the Arab-Israeli wars so while I'm naturally curious to see the doc, it doesn't have to be "right now!"

OK, it's up; but worse; I discovered that I never uploaded my last update at all!

I thought it had been a while - that's what brought me back here actually, looking to see if you were still in the land of the living!
