Bah, just chug some Rad-X and you'll be fine.

Now I want to run a Fallout game using the Shadowrun system.

They even have cybernetics and very rare psionics!  The Forecaster is the most hilarious, and creepy in a non-violent way, psychic I've seen in awhile.

[Teyl_Iliar]

lol, where won't this thread go?

[CanRay]

And in that Fallout Game, I'll set up a Pimping Campaign that's even more sickening and disgustingly decadent than the one in Fallout:  New Vegas!

As long as your Fallout campaign has a double barreled assault cannon, and/or a redneck troll...

Mercy: Grenade Machinegun..... fun fun fun for the whole family....

That or a nice little Euclid/Helios Charge... Orbital bombardment.... is there anything it can't do?

Super Mutant with a Double-Barrelled Gauss Rifle or Holo-Rifle, for that classic Pump-Action Goodness!

...

I'm still trying to figure out a Pump-Action ENERGY WEAPON!

[KarmaInferno]

Mebbe it needs to charge a energy chamber between shots, and the pump action does that.

Actually, a Microfusion Cell pops out with every pump, and you reload them one-at-a-time like they're shotgun shells too.  While it only uses one shot, it makes me think, metagaming style, that it's probably the most inefficient use of the energy possible.  You could get 24-shots out of a Laser Rifle for the same cell, or 12-shots from a Plasma Rifle.

[Teyl_Iliar]

Why bother with cells? Instead why not make the pump charge a dynamo that creates the charge for the weapon? Add an extra friction energy absorption surface along the pump action's rails so that it helps contribute to the energy level no matter which way it's going. You'll never run out of ammo, as long as you have the energy to pump it.

[Stahlseele]

so you fap several minutes for one moneyshot?

[CanRay]

*Pumps the Holo-Rifle 50,000 times to get enough charge, fires once, pulls trigger again to get a "Not Enough Ammo" buzz, screams and runs away, pumping again*

Microfusion Cells carry a lot of power.

doesn't seem like it if 1 cell = 1 shot.

Not exactly what i was going for. more like a shotgun, one pump =1 shot.

[Stahlseele]

Yeah, with a SHOTGUN . . but not if you need to create energy . .

I guess I didn't convey what I meant very well, I'm figuring if you've got the technology to build compact man portable energy weapons, you've also got the technology to make what seems like a simple action (pumping a shotgun) turn into a huge amount of power. Don't ask me how that's supposed to work, I'm not an engineer and couldn't explain the technical stuff if I had the math in front of me. But with the things i've heard about conservation of energy and the ways it can be gathered in strange and subtle ways, I figure that it's a totally possible concept.
