Morpheus Unbound | GURPS | Weapons and Equipment
This pages lists numerous Rockets, Torpedoes and Launchers developed using the rules in GURPS Vehicles, 2d. ed. Due to the complexity of the calculations involved, we provide much of the "raw data" used to develop the weapons so that you can double-check our calculations if you want. Please report any errors to morpheus_unbound@patric.net so that we can get them corrected.
