Horizon-Doble Revolution, p42 - the text mentions optional sidecars but doesn't list a cost or give a page reference to Increased Seating on p164; the text also mentions "Lounge option offers a secondary bit of safety in the form of an optional canopy and seat belt system." but doesn't specify any crunch related to the seat belt (PSS?) or the canopy.

Minotaur is missing entirely from page 53.

The Minotaur is mentioned in a comment  on p. 72 with a stat box in p. 73 so the reference in the back should refer here instead.

Maybe I'm missing something here, but on p. 174 under "Vehicle Actions" it says that "each vehicle action describes the threshold, along with the modifiers added".

However, with each and every vehicle test on the following pages, there are only mentioned the modifiers (mostly terrain and speed). The threshold itself (according to the table in the core book, p. 199) is completely left out.

Cheers
Ruffio

the thresholds are there listed in brackets ( threshold) .  for example the threshold for pulling a bootlegger turn is the terrain modifier plus the speed of the target vehicle  while the threshold for catch up/break away is equal to the terrain modifier plus the difference in speed between the acting vehicle and the target vehicle

I know that. However, p. 173 says that terrain and speed are used as modifiers to the actual threshold (which is between 1 and 4 according to the table in SR5, p. 199), so it makes no sense that they are the only constituents of the thresholds as given in all the new vehicle actions.
The way it is now, maneuvers like Crazy Ivan, Cut Off, or PIT would have a threshold of 0 in Open terrain, making it feasible for any unexperienced driver …

Cheers
Ruffio

The way I'm reading the rules terrain/speed are not used as modifiers to the threshold but used as the actual threshold .

Quick Question: Retrans Unit is in vehicle modifications but is actually says drones in the text description and example.  Does this mean a Retrans Unit can be installed on drones or in this case when they say drone they mean remote piloted full size vehicles?

Thanks.

The vehicle modification rules are meant for all vehicles. The drone modification chapter has optional rules for easier (sort of^^) drone modification...

So i see no problems using modifications from the vehicle mod chapter with drones. (Not even when using the drone modification rules, but that may not be 100% RAW).

Btw... If i remember correctly, the newest Missions FAQ has a complete list of vehicle modifications allowed in drones.

yes, we decided to use the drone modification chapter for Missions so we spent some time and effort on clarifying how the two chapters work together ... at least how we see it anyway

The anthro drones don't seem to have a size category assigned.

Based on other books, most should probably be Large with the exception of those noted to be smaller like the Little Buddy.

I don't think that this will show correctly, as I don't know how to format forumcode to show tabs like a document. Hrm. Let's try this button here...

MICRO DRONE      HANDL   SPEED   ACCEL   BODY   ARMOR   PILOT   SEN   AVAIL   COST
Shiawase Kanmushi      4              0G       0              0               0              2             3              8           1000$
S-B Microskimmer      3       1R       1              0                0              2              2             6        1000$

Going through all 17 pages slowly, but I didn't see the answer, is it safe to guess the 0 Body is 0 Mod points?  0 (0) ?

I like my little spider drones, and Missions rules say they can have a max realistic feature of 4, but it seems that means taking a - 1 to each stat with a number.... and unless I can take a -1 Availability I'm still short.

Yes a BOD of 0 would mean 0 MOD points, but I was just looking things over and unless I missed something (And please point out if I did) Realistic features does not have a MOD point cost, at least, I see no such cost is listed.

D'oh! They DON'T have a size listed, do they?

I'd need to grab my notes, but the Little Buddy should be Small, the Juan, iDoll, and Secretary should be Medium (The sec is human-sized, just much heavier than you'd expect), with the construction bot being Large. The Juggernaught would fall into Huge, if only just. It's right on the cutting edge between "A really big large and a really small Huge", and I tend to default to the latter.)

It should be a 0 (0) Body yes, so troubled to modify.

As a side-note, remember that while you get a point for lowering *A* stat, if you lower more stats, you don't get more points! You can only get +1 no matter how much worse you make the drone. That was very much by design.

I think in this cases you'd do better by assigning them metatype sizes:

Little Buddy, Bust-A-Move: Gnome/Pixie
iDoll, Juan, Secretary, Duellist, etc.: Human/Elf
Kenchiku-Kikai/Sparring Drone: Ork
Juggernaught: Troll/Minotaur

Makes it easier especially in regard to the Realistic Features
