08-16-07, 04:50 PM I figured since nobody answered you, and I can't just leave another MGS fan hanging, I'd offer a couple of pennies in your direction.

Cypher-T
HD 3d6 (17 HP)
BAB 2
Movement - Fly 20, Perfect
Skills - Spot 8
Stats - Str 4 Dex 16 Con - Wis 14 Int 6 Cha -
Attacks - +5 (mounted gun)
Weapons - .223 mounted gun 3d4 damage

Very very cruddy, I know, but it should get you through the annoying fights with these things ok. I honestly don't know what else you would need on them.

08-16-07, 07:47 PM Wait, why d6 HD? Also, would giving them Advanced Firearms Proficiency be too much?
DarkSoldier
08-16-07, 07:49 PM Were those things autonomous or remote-operated?
Ezram
08-16-07, 09:09 PM They have a camera on top, but it's never explicity stated whether they're autonomous or not (though after they spot you, the guards know where you're at, so someone could be watching a monitor :confused: )

08-20-07, 10:16 PM Why a d6? Because if memory serves, you can take the down with anywhere between one to five shots, depending on where they're placed.

Since the spread for the average pistol is 3-18, it's to reflect that... I guess.

I'd just make them autonomous, since, well... Why not? Don't the guards have anything better to do than sit on their butts and watch tv all day long?

They walk left, look around, walk right, look around, and say, "Nothing here." I'm pretty sure that's important.

08-21-07, 02:04 AM *Laughs.* Ain't that the truth.

Side question, what part of vancouver are you from DarkSoldier?

08-21-07, 07:54 AM Well Constructs don't get a Con score, and their HD is d10. They aren't Medium sized, so they aren't getting a bonus to HP either.

Also, how much ammo do you think they'd carry?

And off topic - but i'm working on statting Raiden, thinking he's a Fast Hero / Soldier / Infiltrator. Ideas?
mato_hibiki
08-21-07, 05:50 PM Ah yes, I did forget about the d10 for no Con things, drat. I'd give those dinky little things about... Thirty rounds of ammo. They pretty much scout/sentry bots, so full out combat doesn't seem to be in the design.

As for Raiden, I'd make a new thread for 'MGS characters' and not just Jack.

Max in tumble, move silently and hide, enough BAB for three attacks, and all the martial arts feats. Improved grapple, possibly double tap, and a pack of smokes. :D

I'll go replay MGS2 the next chance I get, and see if I can come up with some more ideas by then, ok?
Ezram
08-21-07, 08:05 PM Sounds good! I also would like to think they have Infiltrator for Skill Mastery (Taking 10 on Hide, Move Silently, and Tumble checks. Maybe Swim as well)
