I have converted SWMB into SGII stats. I would appreciate any comments. Please
see the attached Excel Workbook.

This helps most of us not.

This is what I see. I'm sure a number of others do, too.

Not to sound grumpy or anything of the like, attachments are notoriously a Bad
Idea to the list. The moderator can tell you more details if you'd
like.  ;-)

Also, many of us aren't accessing through Windows or a PC or anything like
that. We have other OS' we're coming in with. Not everyone has the same OS you
do.

Your best option might be to either:

1) create a webpage and put it up somewhere with the info, or

2) convert it to standard vanilla ASCII like this msg

I'd like to see what you've come up with, if only out of curiousity's sake.
But it's not possible to read what you sent.

I have the attachment but I'm not too happy about getting a binary in my
email.

I disagree with the choice of close range for the blaster pistols - they
were seldom used in the movies at ranges greater than "close", but Han did use
his in the docking bay on Tatooine at a longer range and on
Endor at moderate ranges - effectively too - IMHO your use of a low
firepower stat would simulate their smaller usefulness.

I have to agree with Mark here. Attachments are often verbotten on mailing
lists, particularly with one with a server that can't handle a lot of traffic.
It could tilt the poor server. Many people on the list can't use it anyway,
and many who could still have to pay for download time.

I don't fall into the above categories, but I still won't run the spreadsheet.
I'm a little paranoid these days about macro virii. We've been hit with
several at work (not my computer, though), and until I get the upgrade of our
virus checker I just don't run unsolicited Word docs or Excel spreadsheets.

> Your best option might be to either:

It should be easy enough to copy/paste the spreadsheet into an e-mail
message and then clean up the tabs. If you NEED to send the spreadsheet, the
best option is to tell people about it on the list and let them ask you for
the spreadsheet.

I hope you can convert the data to an e-mail message. I'd like to see
it, but I deleted the spreadsheet as soon as it hit the hard drive.

Heavy Blaster Pistol 1 D10 Close Only Hunting Blaster 2 D8 Blaster Rifle 2 D10

Repeating Blaster (Tripod-Mounted)                  D8  D10
Medium Repeating Blaster D10 D10 Heavy Repeating Blaster D10 D12

Brendan Pratt made me reconsider the pistols above, so I changed the Impact
of the hold-out blaster to D4, but let it be used at only close range.

This is only a brief start, because I wanted to convert my star wars fiqures
to SGII. I hope to move to vehicle stats next. I would appreciate any help on
that matter.
