How would you go about building a mech/vehicles

[AngryOgre]

Questions in the title, would the proper way be to strip down the spaceship rules or are vehicle rules forth coming?

Thanks in advance!

PS I am in love with these two games!

So, there's are no rules in there at present. Here's how it will work:

You purchase a standard vehicle type from the list in the book. It has a few basic stats - speed, toughness, structure. You can then customize that vehicle type much like you might customize, say a weapon. So you could have a higher quality vehicle, or you could add weapons, armor, other equipment or systems. It won't be as complex as the starship rules.

Mechs will be a type of vehicle and use the same general approach.

Ah OK, I was thinking as much but I was unsure. I was partially inspired by the kick starter vote for what adventure scenario would be written. I saw the mech squad one and it got me thinking. Thanks for getting back to me

Will the vehicles rules port to OLD as well as NEW? Such as armed carriages, dwarven war machines, etc?

I don't see why not, although I don't think I'll actually include that in the O.L.D. rulebook - lots of competition for space in there! Maybe a supplement along the way.

Well, once we have the NEW version set, it likely wouldn't take much for someone to put together a supplement if it's not something you take on yourself.

I heartily encourage that sort of behaviour!
