[QUOTE="Knightfall, post: 7117398, member: 2012"] Fire does seem to make sense, but going with something that more closely matches what is in the DMG v.3.5 (p. 146). The Damage Type for them is considered special. That is also true of the antimatter rifle listed there, as well. (Also, read more below.) Another sticking point are the ranges given for those weapons compared to the ones listed in the Dragonstar books. I had planned to roll back the DS ranges to match the one in the DMG, but I decided against it, for now. And, I had made the mistake of saying that the lasers are untyped. (Again, this is why I shouldn't work on this stuff and post at 3 A.M.) The type for them for AotS is noted in the document as 'Energy'. These weapons deal damage of a nonspecific energy type that is not subject to energy resistance. I've also made the sunsword do this special type of Energy damage instead of Fire, because I want to make them scary. :) Plasma weapons do fire damage. While an interesting idea, it was my mistake at way too late at night. BTW, your PC is one feat short. As an Imperial citizen, you don't have to select the Technical Proficiency feat with one of your slots. You get it for free. So, pick another 1st-level feat to add to your character. [/QUOTE]
