Aliens Unlimited Galaxy Guide: Explosive Railgun Amunition

Unread post by eliakon »

The ammunition write up provides the damage increase for light, medium and vehicular railguns.
Good as far as it goes.
But the vehicular railgun is considered the light railgun when building spaceships.
Now while the 50% damage boost and 8 foot blast radius are handy on a light weapons, especially for say point defense...
it raises the question of what do we do about explosive rounds for the larger railguns?

Do they all just get +1d4x10? or should we increase them by 50% damage?
And should the radius stay 8 feet? Especially for something like a Railgun Battery?
The rules are not a bludgeon with which to hammer a character into a game. They are a guide to how a group of friends can get together to weave a collective story that entertains everyone involved. We forget that at our peril.
