Dear StarGrunt II Fans;

Well it just seems that we have alot material to draw from
espcially roleplaying games, reference books on sci-fi equipment.
Holstic Designs has an interesting game called Fading Suns that depicts a
setting of interstellar civilization that has declined
technologically.   They have a mix old and high
tech equipment espicially armor old designs and high designs.

Here is my attempt at converting them to StarGrunt II

Fading Suns Armor
                      Armor Die

Padded/Heavy Clothing
                        D4
Leather Jerkin/Studded Leather
                      D6
Scale Armor
                               D6
Chainmail
                                 D6
Halfplate
                                  D6
Platemail Armor
                               D8
Synthsilk
                                  D6
StiffSynth
                                 D8
Polymer Knit
                       Firearms D6/D4 other weapons
Ceramsteel
                                D10

Shields
                              Die shift

Small
                                   +1D type in CA only
Large
                                   +2D type in CA only

Since Fading Suns has interesting setting for using all three rules sets. This
my attempt to deal with
low-tech weapons in a somewhat high-tech setting.
