Ops and Tactics Thread: The books still don't look like Ass edition!

THIS IS THE LAST UPDATE I'll BE DOING FOR AWHILE! PLEASE DOWNLOAD THIS ONE IF YOU'RE TIRED OF MY SHIT!

>What the hell is Ops and Tactics and why did you write this?

Ops and Tactics is/was a rework of the terribly awful modern game D20 Modern that produces enough differences in said game to be considered it's own. It's goal was to do the following things
1. Make Combat more fluid and less rigid like the D20/D&D style outright demands.
2. Make it reflect the real attributes of weapons and armor, in a more realistic sense, while being as playable as possible.
3. Make everything else suck less, at least in my opinion.
4. Introduce a more modular way to handle magic, Incantations/Invoking(My own..thing), Psionics, and equipment. There is also a lot of equipment.

>How did you do the things you said you did
1. Combat Points. Combat points are units of measurement that are spent during combat to do various actions that have values. For example, a character could spend all 15 of his combat points running in a straight line, moving 75 feet, gaining a +1 Bonus to defense for ever 10 feet after 30, due to it being implied through the rules that he was running, and shooting at running people is harder. Combat points may be spent however the character wishes, in any combination of actions or attacks(And there are a lot, for both melee and ranged fighters), without any real restriction, so long as what they can do is "legal" and they have enough points.

This also makes combat in the game FAST AS FUCK!

2.Firearms has been redesigned as a whole. Instead of going the (Default) generic route, I, as a firearms enthusiast, decided to stat out specific firearms due to their particular stats in the real world. As a side effect, there are a lot of guns. A lot. Melee weapons are also weighed into this, and various maneuvers are available. With the change that one can attack multiple times without some special feat bullshit, melee weapons become hilariously more dangerous than a firearm can be( with the right feat stack, one can stab someone 7 times at 2d4+1+ power) per stab.

3. A lot of common things have been removed, reworked, or expounded on due to major issues with them. The first and foremost of these are the Strength and Dexterity Bonuses. They have been worked in a way so that you divide your strength bonus between melee to-hit and melee to-damage, and divide your ex bonus between ranged to-hit and overall defense.

To add to this, there is recoil now, so Strength is quite important when you're trying to use guns that recoil heavier.

Posted next is Modern magika

There aren't any monsters in any of these books yet, we're compiling them into the Field Identification Manual, which will basically have a bunch of monsters to use

Lastly is Advanced Arms!

I'm going to idle in the thread, answer any questions, and post some guns while I listen to some remixes.

Feel free to ask questions, shitpost, or provide some constructive criticism.

Also here is procdural weapons.

It's for making random guns!

Great for a borderlands game.

Rolled 38, 41 = 79 (2d100)

I'mma make a handgun

Rolled 2, 19, 100, 39, 54, 38, 85, 58, 26 = 421 (9d100)

Alright, so a backup revolver...

Do you have a vague guesstimate as to how long it'll take to create a Field Identification Manual? Lack of a Monster's Manual, among other things, is what killed games like Legend.

Keep rollin'.

I also automated this in ruby for an IRCbot.

2-3 months?

Maybe?

We do have monsters, we just have to recompile them and make them OaTs compatible.

Single-Action, fixed cylinder, 8 rounds capacity, tiny size, shoots .38 Special/.357 Magnum, 25-foot range increment, 0% error range, upgrade points on the frame, barrel, and one tactical point, comes empty with no extra equipment.

Neat.
