okay this is what I have for Blast rules now:

[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]Blast [/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif] A Blast attack is an area effect attack centered on a certain place. This could be a target or a point in space. Blasts have a Kill Radius and a Wound Radius. Objects and characters within the Kill radius take primary damage. Objects and characters within the Wound Radius take the Serious Damage for their scale up to a maximum of 20 damage (ie kill damage anyway). The DC to avoid damage is 20 and each 5 points you make the save by reduces the damage by 5 points. If the weapon is an anti-vehicle weapon then your save will also apply versus stun, deafness, and knock back. If you save by 10 (ie DC 30) then you take no secondary effects. If you have cover then you take no damage an you only have to save versus deafness. [/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif] Some explosives have Target listed as the Primary range. This means that only the target takes primary damage and everything else only takes secondary damage. [/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif] If the explosive is of personal scale then secondary effects depend on the type. They will be listed with condition and save DC. If the explosive is at vehicle scale then characters also have to deal with stun and deafness. Characters within the Wound radius also take stun, deafness, and knockback. At double the wound radius characters must make a fortitude save versus DC 25 or be stunned and deafened. At triple the wound radius characters must save versus DC 20 or be deafened. [/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif] Debris and dust may spread out and obscure vision. If the character is in a confined space with an explosion then no save is possible. If there is a large enough object between the character and the explosion then no save versus stun is required only one versus deafness. Only make one roll to save versus both effects at the same time. This may be ignored if the character is wearing a sealed helmet or a strong enough vehicle. [/FONT]
[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif] Damage rolls increase the primary damage to the object that was being attacked but other characters are not effected by this. The wound radius damage is the same for everyone. [/FONT]
 

Not sure what you're doing here (designing a game or running one). If running a game, check out rules on this in RECON (from Palladium) or perhaps Stargate D20.
 

@olgar what about these?

[FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]Mark 12 5-inch Cannon[/FONT]

and where are you getting all this data? Is it somewhere I can look things up so I don't have to bug you so much?

I am actually trying to create a d20 based system. You can check it out on the link below. It is more gritty and deadly then standard D20 but it can run combats much faster as well. My hope is that at least some of the concepts of my system will be incorporated into other d20 systems out there.
I am using Spycraft 2.0 for some of the system ideas which Stargate is v1.5 of that system. I am planning on coming back and doing a Stargate setting as well.
 

Well part of the problem is that my Nexus d20 uses a different damage system then standard D20 so I'm having to rework alot.

Where is the goo website? I couldn't find it (google thought I meant good).

Unfortunately Guardians of Order ("GOO") went bankrupt during 2006(?) because of various reasons and it appears their website expired sometime thereafter ... however they released their d20 Mecha construction rule chapter as a free SRD; which remains available around the net including here: http://www.naturaltwenty.com/wp-content/plugins/download-monitor/download.php?id=3 The site also has their anime srd.

I believe driverthrurpg/rpgnow also continue selling the original pdf books which included several example settings/mechs including several for Heavy Gear, if you use that product line for inspiration.

It was aimed for generic d20 so will need some conversing to your damage system, however its modular nature should ease the process somewhat?
