> System: Flame War Generator Status: RO Ha ha ha.. this is the best turn around from an off topic post I've ever seen. Maybe we should make more in line with this one? System: Holographic Physics Professor Mass: 1 Cost: $80,000 (due to grants and interest groups, lab fees, and equipment) When used the system fires a holographic projection at the target ship. The hologram is effectively displayed on a hit roll of 4 for ships with NO shields, 5 for ships with ONE shield, and 6 for ships with TWO shields. Holographic Physics Professor can not effect ships with three (or more depending on house rules) shields due to the distortion surrounding the ship. If the target ship is effected roll a D6 and apply the results below. 1-2 = Completely confused: the ship can do nothing while they ponder the legality of the professor's theories. (The crew must decide wither or not laws of physics allow them to have the systems on board their ship) 3-4 = Utterly disgusted: The target ship attempts to ram the user of the holographic Professor. As they do not agree in any way with the professor and think it is imposible for such things to exsist. (Ship to ship) the target ship will use all maneuvers possible to make contact with the other ship. damage is applied as normal, i.e. ram / collision damage. 5-6 = Totally in Agreement: The target ship understands the professor and agrees with his theories. It will no longer attack the User's ship. As he feels "He must be a way cool guy / gal." Who knows could work? CMC
