Character Generator
« on: January 17, 2008, 11:56:41 AM »
I've been playing around with a way to generate characters/heroes for those of us who are tired of fielding Steiners, Dominics, and Mitch Hunters.

I was thinking of starting with a basic stat bar and having X points to spend on enhancements, equip, and SA's.

Obviously (at least for me) this is more scenario oriented and not for building to super death machine heroes (YAAAAAAWN).

Should work with Excel.

You could do random-generated SAs and Stats depending on the points spent.....

It´s a lot of work to get something like that going, but could be done in a day or two evenings I think, if the point system is ready prior to putting it in lists.
You could even do it with the differen´t factions.

Normally each Megacorp or faction has a set of SA that is used and others close to never. So you could even choose the Corporation. Depending on that there are some stats that have to be linked to a Corp.
As nearly no Capitol Individual has 3 wounds. Imperial and Bauhaus have some.

And adding to that you can put in "setbacks". Often enough you get good SA or Stats but not the Über-gun to use with it ;-)

Seems to be a very good idea and a very interesting one!

Great suggestions - but they sound slightly beyond my excel skills.  Would happily collaborate with others--.
