we do have a good collected weapon tables but if we look for armor we obliged to check throught all book ( the corerule book and the inquisitor handbook). it is time consuming and bothering.

it is the same for equipement there no need for a full description but just a line for example a painkiller drug should be listed as drug and in the column effect whe should find something like "remove fating"

You mean kinda like the collected table for Talents in the beginning of the talents section?

I made one of those by photocopying/printing various tables from the rulebooks, editing in the appropriate erratas by tippex and pencil, and then collected them nicely using a pair of analogue scissors and paperglue. It felt almost dirty to do all that cut and paste outside of a computer. But it has turned out to be the bet spent two hours of GM preparations ever! They don't look good, but are very handy.

I started with the collected ranged weapon tables at the back of the IH. Then added some of the more extensive melee weapon collections (feral world, warzone, forgeworld... maybe some more), plus a few items added by handwriting in the empty spaces, such as the Eviscerator. As for armors I was content with the list from DH. Most other armors are quite gimmicky and seldom useful. I have a feeling I'll need to update it with the RT items soon.

So if some talented person wants to spend some time doing a nice collection in a proper editing program, and sharing it with other fans, I'm sure it would be greatly appreciated by the community. Else, just get those scissors out!

thank but i can't open the link : ( so it stil without reponse for me.

Well, Spider, I've been compiling a database of all the equipment, armour, and weapons from all the books and am currently adding in the missing stuff from Rogue Trader. When i have it done, I'll toss the base and pdf up for download if you would like. Though, it doesn't contain all the weapons and will be missing some of the armour -I only put generic (non-pattern) weapons and armour in. This is mostly due to how I run my game. I have a house rule that if a player wants a Good Quality piece of gear, they have to come up with it's pattern name but they get to assign it a single trait from a list that I've built up (including some home-brew traits to increase damage, pen, ammo count, etc) and if they want a Best Quality piece, they have to come up with it's pattern name, give it a unique name, and come up with a paragraph or three of it's back story as well as getting to assign it three traits from the list. So, because I'm making my players come up with patterns for weapons instead of just pulling them from a book, I've left them off of my list. Still, even with those omissions, if you think it still may help you out, let me know, let me know and I'll put it up sometime this weekend.

thank grave yes i would like so :) . sorry for this quick answer but i'am not there for weekend you know the real life syndrom... :) have a nice weekend all.

I'm working on a mail merge document that will distill this info onto printable cards. I think I'll put Inquisitorial Rosettes on the back of the cards for my use, but certainly the Word 2003 mail merge doc could be passed around for printing?

I saw something similar to this over on Dark Reign...
