[QUOTE="(Psi)SeveredHead, post: 1651795, member: 1165"] I no longer have my Alternity core book, and my GMG is out of reach (grr...) so I'm just going by memory here. I thought the laser pistol and other laser weapons were PL 6 inventions. Alternity Warships did this quite well... they split technology into different tracks, so you could have a different PL in each one. Most of the races in StarDrive were PL7 in most areas, but often were PL 8 in one or two areas and PL 6 in another area. (Speaking of which, I hated how they determined only humans and fraal would start off with interstellar spaceflight.) Yes and I've heard rave reviews of it. I haven't seen it, however :( Seen it. Waiting impatiently for NPCs. It was a very good book (I've got it). I don't think it's [i]all that[/i] mind you; I was bigger Star Drive fan. :D Memo to WotC... maybe I should buy Eberron just to reward WotC for writing a light crunch book. I would expect a laser to have a longer range. It should be more accurate and lasers keep their energy and coherence for quite a long range.
