By William Tracy Artificial gill suits Underwater action in To survive underwater for long periods, characters must employ a breathing apparatus known as an STAR FRONTIERS®gaming artificial gill suit (AGS), which covers the wearer’s entire body. It is made of a material that is similar to From Dragon Magazine #110 June 1986 that used in skeinsuits, and it may be left transparent or colored as the manufacturer desires. Normal goggles may be worn by Humans, Vrusk, and Yazirian divers. The AGS will absorb one- fourth of all damage caused by projectile and gyrojet weapons, fragmentation grenades, explosives, and melee weapons. It cannot be worn with any other suit of armor, but a screen may be used with it. When the AGS has taken 35 points of damage, it will be ruined and useless as armor. The AGS for Humans, Yazirians, and Vrusks conforms to their basic physical shape The AGS for Dralasites will stretch to accommodate their shape-changing abilities. During the course of a STAR FRONTIERS® campaign, a A Yazirian AGS covers the group of adventurers might want or need to enter an glide-wing membranes without hampering their use in underwater environment unfortunately, the rule swimming (see below). Much of the exterior of the books contain no rules for underwater play. This AGS is covered by a series of microfilters, all made of article attempts to rectify that situation, and some tough, translucent plastic.

This series of firearms featured a rocket projectile instead of a traditional cartridge. Starting off Ernie covered the background and gave a short history of Arthur Biehl, who teamed with Robert Mainhardt to form MB Associates, or MBA, in order to develop Biehl's armor-piercing rocket rounds. Robert Mainhardt had worked with small portable research nuclear reactors. They developed some small rockets for the Vietnam War called Finjets, which were 3mm in diameter or roughly just over half the diameter of a .22 round. This led to the Lancejet rocket, a larger .25 caliber finless rocket with an explosive head which was to be used for mine clearing. In 1962 they developed the underwater Lancejet speargun. MBA provided examples for the underwater combat scenes in the James Bond movie, “ You Only Live Twice ”. The first pistol cartridge was a 13mm diameter rocket over one inch long moving at 1200 FPS with no recoil.

The "Detective," as it sounds, is a compact version of the M-90 for concealed work. The M-95 has two new safeties, a firing pin safety and an ambidextrous thumb safety.

  • Advanced Star Frontiers Weapons Charts
    Star Frontiers Expanded Weapons Charts Advanced Star Frontiers Weapons Charts The Alpha Dawn game provides a succinct, easy to reference set of charts for many of the standard weapons found in the Star Frontiers universe. This document is not intended to replace that convenient system but rather to supplement it. What follows is a compilation of various weapons that were published in Alpha Dawn(AD) , the Zebulon’s Guide (Zeb) plus the Star Frontiersman (SFM) and Frontier Explorer (FE) magazines with a few of my own weapons thrown in. A few weapons, such as the ancient lasers, were developed by Chris Donovan and posted on the Star Frontiers Wiki site. The Zebulon weapons listed here have been converted to the Alpha Dawn system. Although the original Zebulon rules offered a chart of universal weapons’ ranges, it was incompatible with AD weapons. For example, the point blank and extreme ranges were eliminated in Zebs. Plus, there were several Zeb weapons, such as the helmet rafflurs, that even violated these universal ranges. Although I tried to note the origin of some of the weapons, when it came to the P.G.S. (projectile, gyrojet, sprayer) section, I found it more convenient to list the ammo costs in the same chart so there was no room for this other information. When it came to fan-created weapons from the magazines, I did alter some of the prices where I saw fit. Also, I provided a weight category for items such as powerclips, P.G.S. clips and grenades that previously had no weight in response to discussions on the starfrontiers.us website.
