I rather like that, it's a nice twist.

I haven't tried T5 (yet) , I'm still an MT kind of guy with a weakness for FF&S.

Well, I'm probably sticking with MgT rules for the time being - at least while TravCon here in the UK is expecting that. But I'm enjoying exploring some of the systems in T5.

I've liked the idea of stealing some of the modifier rules from BTRC's
"Vehicle Design System" and "Guns,Guns,Guns" on these topics and using
them along side the MT rules. ... but those are design-time modifiers,
and lead to a lot more spreadsheet action than what you've got here.

OK. I've been meaning to look at Guns Guns Guns and see if it might get me enthused on the subject. But I must confess that if I can avoid going so far as a spreadsheet, I'm quite happy!

Your idea is a bit more abstract, but much cleaner and more straightforward.

Thank you. I'm going to mess with it some more today after Phil's comments and see where I get to.
