Doug's Musical Ability, in GURPS
 
#41
Quote:How far can Doug move when making his “I punch everyone and their grandmother” attacks in V&V? Also, would that count as an All-Out Attack for him?
Heh. And now we come to another feature of V&V that I love to exploit -- the movement rules.
Doug has a movement rate (on foot) equal to his STR+END+AGI, which is 74 inches (1 inch = 5 scale feet) per 15-second combat round. Doug can portion that out any way he wants over the round -- spend it evenly across all 15 seconds, or spend all his movement in one phase. (Which he does a couple times in DW2, most notably the first time he comes face-to-face with Priss: he maxes his movement to get the hell away from her.) That gives him a "low" end of 16.8 MPH, and a burst of... um. 370 (74 * 5) feet in one second is... Huh. 252 MPH.
That doesn't look right, I could have sworn it was about a third of that, but I just did the math three times, three different ways. (Now, just imagine the burst modes for the speedsters, whose "low end" movement is already in the hundreds of MPH...)
So basically, to answer your question, if he wants to blow all his movement for 15 seconds, about 1-1/4 American football fields. And yeah, given the all-or-nothing aspect of the rule, definitely it's all-out.
Quote:I’ve got that built as an 8-level obscure against being targeted
Is that effective against psi and other unorthodox attacks, too?
Quote:However, speaking of the Ablative Armor from V&V, how fast does it recover? That alone might make it less effective in GURPS than it first appears.
For those with "natural" armor, ie, not built, it heals at the same rate as HP. But healing powers also regenerate armor.
Quote:I just want to know what happens to him when he hears the Weebles song. ;-P
Well, since I said "Tubthumping" makes him act like a Weeble, I suppose it should make him act like a Chumbawumba. Whatever that is.
Quote:Oh, I get that. Which is why I’m trying to get what he could do in V&V, and build the result in GURPS. GURPS is nice that it will let me do it that way.
You don't have to tell me.
