Re: To soak or not to soak
Thanks, I found it. We've used it for 3 sessions and it's been well received. No one misses rolling for soak and 5 soak/lvl makes Brawn a good deal even if you're not relying on it for primary damage. The only tweak on that has been capping total soak at 40 regardless of where you get it (Armor, Br...

Re: Ranged Combat
Well a person who has not shot a gun before is rolling at x1, but a person with any significant shooting experience would probably have a x2 to hit. Maybe even x2+3.

Re: To soak or not to soak
I personally wouldn't fool with doing Encumbrance myself.
As for where it is in the rulebook, it was in the Pulp section (not Iron-Age, my mistake); page 77.

Re: Ranged Combat
Here is how I might handle it as a house rule: Unattended Objects have a base difficulty of 10 if they are small, 5 if they are not. Narrator may adjust this based on size. Powers with a Range of Close (5 squares) don't get any adjustment. Otherwise: Targets within one fifth of your max range you ge...

Re: To soak or not to soak
There is one potential downside of allowing flat soak above 30 and that increases the odds of a character being un-hurtable in certain situations. RAW allows for a low Soak Roll at the same time as a good damage roll to make a dramatic and sudden shift in the combat (especially if this is the moment...

Re: To soak or not to soak
A short session with new characters yesterday to try out the change above (Armor = 10/lvl, revised equipment similarly) worked pretty well. Guns were suitably dangerous to unarmored heroes and civilians but not to tanky characters which could still absorb quite a bit of punishment. Rolling for soak...

Re: Lifting
How does Growing/Density affect rolls on the strength chart? I'd handle it the same as Heightened, but adds +5 to the roll (per rank) and you can choose to shift over to a higher level chart by adding +10, up to the number of ranks of Growing/Density Increase you have. So, you could shift 2 charts ...

Re: To soak or not to soak
This is pretty much how it does work in BASH! Fantasy and BASH! Sci-Fi Editions. In those, armor gives a flat +10/20/30 Soak, with a few abilities being able to increase that by +5. One thing regarding RAW, you have a point that a character with a Brawn of 3 may seem to not be hurt by a gunshot that...
