Santiago - very nice work

More please!!

DW

Santiago, i have a question if you will?

Is there any correlation between the vehicle rules as written in Into the storm, and GW's Imperial armour books, something akin to armour thickness equating to armour value, or is it just made up numbers with no comparison to the Imp armour books.
I ask because i have access to all of them, and would like to know if any of them can be converted to RT with any accuracy.

Well yes....its correlated from the Rhino...

In TT the Rhino has F11, S11, R10, the RT Rhino has 24/24/20AP
In TT the Walker Has F10, S10, R10, the RT Walker has 20/20/20 AP

The TT Chimera has 12/10/10 so I guessed it should be approx. 28/20/20

And so on, the Raiders front armour I raised 'cause of it appearance...

Ok, it isn't very accurate but its close enough

Kalec Fash said:

If you want to have something even vaguely comparable to the Astartes Attack Bike (or Land Speeder, which has the same restriction in Into the Storm), I'd waive the weight restriction - the number of heavy weapons that weigh less than 20 kg can be counted on one hand with fingers to spare.

I've got a stack of vehicle profiles all written up, and a bit of free time today, so I'll finish those off and post them up for people to look at later on today, hopefully.

Or up it to 40kg like the LS from ITTS.

Some changes and addtions:

The Leman Russ should get the Reinforced Hull Trait.
The DA Raiders AP should be F22, S16, R18

i apreciate the work but something trouble me why we can't find rules to create common car, truk, bus. sometimes you don't need a rhino but just a sedan.

when you have diplomatic visit it s better in a sedan than in a rhino at least that what i think. and if after that there is a chasing car scene in the scenario well driving a sedan can be quite challenging. i remenber well the second book of ravenor there is almost only common vehicles.

does any one have a idea about it?

Machine Spirit, roll for History and Oddities
All Landraiders have a name, usually granted to them after their first battle, it is a dire insult to the machine to curse it and more than one has been particularly wrathful until it has been apologised to personally. Technically, it is also a sin in the eyes of the Adeptus Mechanicus…
History: (1D5)
1 Ancient- A handful of Landraiders have been in service for many 1000’s of years and have +10 to all their machine spirit's stats
2 Lord of War- This particular machine is a legendary vehicle that causes Fear (2) against one type of enemy of mankind (Chaos, Heretics, Eldar, Orks etc)
3 Venerated- Hull is adorned with purity seals and hex wards giving its full armour save vs warp or psy attacks, the crew receives +30 to mental psy attacks
4 Battle Worn- Has taken the worst war can throw at it but perseveres, it has -5 Structural Integrity but has +2m Tactical, +10km/h Cruising Speeds and +10 Handling
5 Newly Minted- Easy to live with as everything is in perfect working order, additional +10 to Tech Use tests to repair, +5 Handling and +5 Structural Integrity
Oddities: (1D5)
1 Adventurer- Excited by new places and goes 5km/h faster in new surrounds, bored when going back the way it came and reduce speed by 5km/h
2 Defensive- Always manages to scrounge up 25% cover from ranged attacks, Cautious in combat -2 Initiative
3 Warmonger- Eager to kill the enemies of mankind, +2 Initiative and +10 to BS tests
4 Cunning- The machine is a canny veteran; it is -10 to enemies’ detection tests and +10 to all Dodge Tests
5 Vindictive- If assaulted, the machine will automatically return fire with one weapon system, the gunner may then fire with their normal actions that round

Variants
There are many types of landraider over the last 10,000 years of service, Pattern Mk1 being Horus Heresy relics on Terra, a handful of remaining MkIIa’s and MkIIb’s in service and the more recently manufactured MkIII, IV and V’s being fielded in slightly larger numbers. While there are some superficial differences, they are all comparatively much the same in terms of protection, ancillary equipment, speed and engine outputs.
The main difference is the purposing of armaments the vehicle has been issued with and some boast additional command equipment and the most common pattern uses the following-
Pintle: Storm Bolter (Range 90m RoF S/2/4 DAM 1D10+5X PEN 4 Magazine 60 rounds- Tearing, Reliable, Storm)

Here are two designs used on the war planet Zayth. For use with Lure of the Expense. If your RT dares to field an army there

Zayth Battle Tank:
http://www.flamesofwar.com/Portals/0/all_images/Soviet/Boxes/MM16.jpg
A tank design ranging back from the beginning of the great Zyath war. Cumbersome and sturdy, these tanks have been recovered time and again from the battlefields and lovingly restored to their former Glory. Each machine a winner and victim of hundreds of battles, displaying their victories proudly on their hulls. But after millenia of hard battles even machines they are prone to failure and it is getting harder and harder to keep them operational
Type: Ground Vehicle
Tactical Speed: 5m
Cruising Speed: 30 kph
Manoeuvrability: -5
Structural Integrity: 30
Size: Enormous
Armour: Front 32, Side 32, Rear 24
Crew: Commander, Gunner, Driver and 1 Heavy Stubber Gunner
Carrying Capacity: None
Special Rules:
Ground Vehicle, this vehicle follows all normal rules for ground vehicles, Reinforced Hull
Weapons:
Primary Armament: Self Loading Battle Cannon (Facing Turret, range 1000m; 4d10+10 X; Pen 10; Clip 1; Rld Full; Blast (5))
Hull mounted Heavy Stubber (Facing Front, Range 120m, Heavy, -/-/10, 1d10+5 I, Pen 3, Clip 200, Rld 2 Full)

Optional weaponry:
Pintle-mounted Heavy Stubber (Facing All, Range 120m, Heavy, -/-/10, 1d10+5 I, Pen 3, Clip 200, Rld 2 Full)
Special Rules:
Rickity: The structural Integrity is at -5 (already in profile) and the machine need a challenging Tech Use roll each time it is brought into the field or it fails to leave the barracks.

Ghosts of the Past: These machines are so old that they have been found to have machine spirits. These Spirits can prove beneficial as they thirst for battle or a hindrance as they fear the Battlefield. Throw a die, when it is even, the tank moves faster, turns quicker and is more accurate with its gun for that battle only. When it is odd, it is the opposite as something is making the spirit fearful.

Zayth Tank Hunter:
http://www.armyrecognition.com/europe/Belgique/exhibition/Tanks_in_Town_2005/pictures/Hetzer_Tanks_in_Town_2005_01.JPG
As more and more of the ancient Tanks fail to respond to repair and more and more resources are lost to create new ones. The Tank Hunter was born. Designed to strike fast and hard and requiring much less resources to build, the tank hunter charges it's opponent fearlessly, only showing it's heavily armored front to the enemy as its sides and rear are lightly armored. It is a much smaller vehicle then the Tank making it a cramped vehicle to be in.
