Sorry to post this here, but couldn't find a better place for it.

Does anyone have Serenity or a generic Firefly class ship done with GURPS Vehicles?

Please post a link!

Thank you kindly.

Generic Universal Role Playing System... I think.

Funny that you ask...I have one I put together a couple years back. It is fairly complete, but it is based on the 2nd edition Space rules for building spaceships, not 4th edition Vehicles. I'll email it to you if you want it.

If you're willing to post your email address, I'll be happy to send it via email. It isn't too big, a couple pages in .doc format.

No, just a regular Word document. I'll mail it to you as soon as I get home from work tonight.

Thanks SpacemanSpiff. I appreciate it, but that won't do. Thank you kindly, though :-)

Trip22, this doc won't mean anything to you if you're not intimate with the GURPS role-playing game Vehicle system. If anything, it'll look not unlike a 3 page calculus equasion and not much else. It's really basic math, just a boatload of it.

Yeah, what with the span of editions and the new information on the 'Verse that has come out since I wrote it up, it's probably pretty useless.

Are you running a GURPS Firefly game? Tell me about it...

Actually I’m not running it. We’re using GURPS 4th for the mechanic, but the Serenity RPG as source, with some GURPS Traveler (we started before the SRPG came out, so he was using Traveler planets & such for source material). I’m the captain of a Firefly with a motley crew. There are 7 players & the GM. It’s been a pretty good game thus far, going on a year now. Only downfall is that we meet just once a month :-( The game is run with a heavy hand of artistic license, so I really don’t *need* stats, but I thought it’d be nice to have :-)

Exactly the kind of game I would run, if I get the chance, except for the Traveler stuff (I don't have any of it, but I hear it could mesh with Serenity pretty well).

Sorry I couldn't help more. Without the 4e Space book (which isn't out yet), I think putting together stats for a Firefly-class transport would be very difficult.
