Military Vehicle Stats?

[Magus]

Has anyone statted out military vehicles? I know Vehicles isn't out yet so I'm wondering if there's any fan-made collections. If there is one thing GURPS 4e has been lacking for so many years, it's in the vehicles department.

Particularly for TL9+ but I'm also interested in TL7 and 8.

There are fan-made projects here and there that may be helpful, but they don't usually go into TL 9.

[Magus]

Thank you! Anything for TL9+ vehicles?

[mook]

Not that I know of, sorry. Hopefully it's easier to extrapolate from earlier TLs than starting from scratch.

Mook, those two Vehicle Compilation files you linked to were 100% inline with our online policy and I have no issue with you recommending them.

However, the pages that you linked to on that hosting site (pdf-archive) also contain links to pirated GURPS (and other RPG) books, right on the page below those Vehicle Compilation files. Because of that, this is an Official Warning not to share those links -- or any links to that site.

If you have, or can establish, a safe link for those Vehicle Compilation files, you can share them then.

While I haven't geared up for doing vehicles yet on my blog I do have a few test vehicles I've got stated up. Here's my go at a TL9 HMMWV style military truck.


High Mobility Transport (HMT) TL9
It has a inertial compass, an infrared surveillance camera, a rugged personal computer, small ladar, a small cellular radio. Each occupant has a crashweb. The HMT has biometric locks on its doors and the vehicle is equipped with standard headlight.

On its roof is a hatchthat gives access to a rotating pintle mount (takes one second to change facing). The pintle typically carries a 7mmCL Light Support Weapon with 5 200 round magzines.


TL: 9
Vehicle: High Mobility Transport
ST/HP: 49
Hnd/SR: 1/5
HT: 13
Move: 6/47
LWt.: 3
Load: 1
SM: +3
Occ. 2+2
DR: 12
Range: 300
Cost: $100,000
Locations: G4WX
Notes: It has improved brakes and run flat tires. Runs for 300 miles on 2 F cells.

Gah! Thank you for removing the links, and apologies for wasting your time doing so -- I just recently found those PDFs through a Reddit link, it was sloppy to share without investigating the entire page.

I would host them myself but there is no contact info for the original author, so I'm just letting it drop.

If one of the vehicle collections you linked was this one:

<MOD> Link removed. Please don't link to pdf-archive. </MOD>

I'm the original author and I've got no objection to it being distributed or modified as you like (there are some terrible errors in grammar and spelling that I never got around to fixing if anyone feels like editing it).

(The '23' is the version number, not meant to indicate that there are 22 other volumes)

Thanks, Perfect Organism. Can now be found for download here as "Unofficial Vehicles Collection." I made no changes other than combining into a single file for convenience.

I hate to tell you, but I'm not the author of the second collection, just the first. I guess 'volume 2' was written by someone else when I gave up on updating mine. So I can't give you permission to use their work; in fact I wouldn't even know who to ask for permission.
