Converting Star Trek ship wpn dmg to GURPS

Sumner Kai · 09-07-2007, 03:37 AM

I am playing around with some Star Trek ships for an upcoming campaign and would like to be able to "build" the ships my own way. I have been hunting online for a formula that GURPS uses to convert damage into game stats. Is there such a thing? Specifically, a phaser system I am trying to convert delivers from 5 to 200 megawatts of energy to a target (if I am reading it right). Is there a way to stat that out in dice?

And while you are at it, is there a formula for slug-thrown weaponry as well? I have seen references to a damage calculator, but haven't found it either.

Thanks in advance...
