THE LATEST DATAPULSE FROM CP ECHO INCLUDES
THE FOLLOWING
UPDATES FOR :[02.28.2006
A.D.]
It's been a looooong time
since I did any work on this site, hasn't it? Care as I to
remember, somewhere around five years ago was when I did the last major data
upload. Sorry about that... Yes, I read each and every email from the
new players to the game as well as the veterans who asked for more original stuff, and,
here it is. Better late than never. Like my other sites, I simply
never realized how popular this had all become....
The new look... You will notice that this site now bears the identity of DATAPULSE
VERSION 2.0. That's right, I've redone practically the entire site,
removed a bunch of stuff that I didn't like anymore and tried to move the site
closer to canon OGRE and GEV than it previously was. Some things are new,
others are gone. Of course, none of it is official but it's still
way closer than it was before...
I changed the
colors of the site to be more printer friendly for those of you who actually
were printing out parts of this site to be used in your games (whether they were
OGRE / GEV or what have you). I have also
tried to emulate the original SJG format in the introduction not only of DPv2.0 but also
the new printable (and very unofficial) supplement "FIRESTORM" which details urban warfare, optional
rules and many, many new units.
The new units
have been treated to a gloss-over to bring them more inline with canon
materials. I've tried to move the unit info to a pertinent area and then
include, as an addendum, the description of the unit in great detail.
Reworked some
stuff in the "BATTLEDRESS" section.
In the time to come, I will be rebuilding the various battlesuits and equipment presented in GURPS OGRE using the MECHA and VEHICLES
supplements and rebuilt the drones using the ROBOTS supplement and tried to put
my ideas and thoughts into the designs. You may
integrate these new designs into your games if you so choose.
Reworked some of the
fiction section to match more closely the changes in the rest of the site.
New fiction on the way.
General site
maintenance, removed the "0101" binary
coded background because it just got too cluttered
sometimes. Reworked every page on the site for better speeds in loading,
removed old images and tried to move the site a little closer to the original
content of OGRE than it had been. Some stuff has been refined, other stuff
has been deleted. More stuff will either be added or deleted in the time
to come. Please pardon the dust.
Work on "Troll" has
been postponed (I know, I know... grumble grumble toil and trouble) as I work on the rules for naval warfare in the OGRE / GEV game
universe, tentatively called "Leviathan." More work has been done on
"Leviathan" over the years than on "Troll" so I thought I would try to finish
one project then resume work on the other.
There may be some rough areas so please be patient. Work continues but I thought it was important to get the majority of the work posted.
