Equipment Index Version 4 Alpha

Postby Rob Lang » Sat Feb 05, 2011 4:37 pm

I've just uploaded an early release of the in all its high-resolution and new model glory. It's not complete by any means but I think all the important pieces are in there.

All feedback welcome!

To use the sheets in play, you fold them twice. First across the page (to make it A5) and then in half again (to make it A6). Then, when you play, you have the weapon picture on one side, the discs on the other and then on the inside you have the detail.

This was explained in the version 7 equipment index (take a look!) but I've moved the explanation into the core rules.

Make sense?

No worries! It's not the first time I've been asked. :)

I forgot to mention that the reason it's released in an unfinished state was that I decided to follow my own advice and release small and release often from now on.

I'm currently doing the Havoc 1B model and I have a really good feeling about it. If I make progress tonight, I'll post a WIP image.

Here's the Havoc 1B - a really early WIP shot. It's going to look a lot different once all the pieces are there! :)

Bah. Well, I'm not happy with the way this one is going. It's not Icary enough. I wanted it to be a bit modular but it's just not right. I think I'll bin it and start again from the original drawing.
