Wasteland HERO

The Post-Apocalyptic Role Playing Sourcebook for the HERO System

VI. The Arsenal

In this section weapons, defenses and equipment are given designs and statistics based on the HERO System. The following lists are not exhaustive, and in many cases, Active and Real Points are not assigned to any particular item. For cases where the GM wishes to have such information, the items are generally given the following limitations: Independent (-2), Focus (-1/4 to -1), and requires batteries or ammunition (-1/4 to -2 depending on the availability and safety of the components)- THIS LIMITATION TAKES THE PLACE OF "CHARGES". Additional limitations should be assigned in accordance with the definition of item.

WEAPON DESCRIPTIONS

KEY:

AP = Armor Piercing; E = Apply vs. Energy Defenses; K = Killing Damage; N = Normal Damage; SMG = Semi-automatic Machine Gun; RP = Reduced Penetration; RbR = Damage is Reduced by Range

RANGED WEAPONS

These weapons are rare and borderline unreliable. In addition to the limitation, each may have an Activation roll of 15 or less.

DEFENSE DESCRIPTIONS

PROTECTION

Protection in the post-apocalyptic world is a very high priority. Unlike classic armor usage, however, armor is rarely constructed from scratch. Practice in the use of armory skills is on the rise as supply and demands are dictating the need for skilled artisans in this arena. Naturally, a worker skilled in leather making can construct a crude set of leather armor, but enough leather material will have to be available to do so (and this could get expensive!) Typically, however, protection for a given character will be sectional as full sets of armor is a rarity. The lower the rDEF, the more likely of finding or buying a full set of "armor".

Characters will more likely have sectional defenses (see the HERO System Rulebook) that comprise a unique blend of found or purchased materials in strategic places around one's person. For example, a given wanderer may have a chain vest, padded leather shoulder pads, laminated plastic kneepads, a plastic helmet, leather pants and boots, and steel bracers. The advanced bookkeeping towards this end is minimal and it lends itself nicely to the genre.
