aight then, I'm thinking of going with a fast hero with a railgun or other sniper-like weapon (Lately I've been thinking about how annoying melee combat can get, so I've decided to see how being far away from my enemies works out), unless sniping isn't really possible in this sort of game (I imagine it can be hard if we spend more time in starship combat than exploring planets or something on those lines) I think our party is mostly ranged anyways, which means I REALLY don't want to be the only person charging like a madman to hit people with a club (although if I play a less than sane person being somewhere between the heavy and the scout from TF2 might be fun) Opinions?
Sounds good. Have you considered miniaturizing the rail-gun(s) and dual-wielding them? I'll likely end-up the melee Character because I can afford the insanely expensive black armor with life support and James Earl Jones voice changer. And the reinforced skeleton and scar removal. And the light saber, I mean beam sword. Fixed that for you. If you want to go sniper there is a Sniper Prc in the web enhancement for Urban Arcana i think. I know there is one but am not positive where. The scary thing is the fix is perfectly accurate, I can connect a translator to an audio system, I have the life support already, and the scar removal is plasiflesh. (Tech level 8 but that just makes it cost DC 11) I still say to dual-wield mini rail-gun or miniaturize a mecha weapon and use some uber cannon.

My character will probably end up pretty good at melee, too. The problem is that d20 modern has a big shift toward ranged combat, since guns do a lot more damage than a club or sword can, generally. Especially big guns.  One big change about d20 modern is that most creatures/characters generally have lower AC, due to armor generally being less common. Might be pretty similar in this case, but not in general. Similarly, attack bonuses and such would likewise be lower, since magic enchantments are usually not common, either. You don't usually see as big numbers, except the damage from large automatic weapons.

...There has GOT to be some sort of penalty for sniping with two rifles...Where are the minature weapons rules? Also, theoretically, could I snipe a mecha with these? I doubt I can but it would be AWESOME. Finally, since this is my first time in d20 modern/future AND my first time being a ranged character I'm gonna need some build advice.
Also, unless they're VASTLY superior/more versatile than the railgun(s), I think I'd prefer the railgun(s) over a massive cannon because A: theres always been a certain thrill in scoring headshots instead of horribly annihalating my...god what have I become, where I would sacrifice dakka for stealth!?!?! Bah, everything once... and B: Flay's probably gonna have a bigger gun than me...and more of them...and probably less stingy with his bullets than I'll be...so I want to stay the hell off his turf. Mecha class sniper cannons are A-OK though, especially if I can mount one on my shoulder somehow.

If the rifles are small size (IE mini rail gun) and you have TWF, -2 to both weapons. Page 60 future. Also, theoretically, could I snipe a mecha with these? I doubt I can but it would be AWESOME.
If you can hit the AC, so yes. Finally, since this is my first time in d20 modern/future AND my first time being a ranged character I'm gonna need some build advice.
If you go dual-rail-gun, have TWF, and feats that boost your attacks. Also, unless they're VASTLY superior/more versatile than the railgun(s), I think I'd prefer the railgun(s) over a massive cannon because A: theres always been a certain thrill in scoring headshots instead of horribly annihalating my...god what have I become, where I would sacrifice dakka for stealth!?!?!

Mecha class sniper cannons are A-OK though, especially if I can mount one on my shoulder somehow.
A mini compact LT-5 Longshot would be -4 to attacks on each gun and deal 15d6 damage per shot. Unless you can't stack Mini and compact in which case the gun will take 2 hands.  However this is an example of taking it too far and it can easily be negated by ruling PL 8 weapons can't be shrunk.

Aren't we only supposed to go to 7, not 8? Also, is 15d6 the highest I can get with a 2H weapon rifle? I'd prefer some sort of minigun, I'm not gonna crazy TWFing it, just need the biggest, baddest BFG I can get my hands on. Since, you seem to know what's up with the big numbers in modern/future, any suggestions jojo? Especially since I'll probably have increased carrying capacity with a suit of mech armor or something. I'm definitely not the skill monkey... But I'm hoping for a chaingun/minigun/cannon, plus a grenade launcher/rocket launcher on the side. Hopefully, property damage wont be something we need to worry about.... eh, Stormcrow? I suppose I could get a rhino cannon... but bigger is always better.  Also, unless they're VASTLY superior/more versatile than the railgun(s), I think I'd prefer the railgun(s) over a massive cannon because A: theres always been a certain thrill in scoring headshots instead of horribly annihalating my...god what have I become, where I would sacrifice dakka for stealth!?!?!

Mecha class sniper cannons are A-OK though, especially if I can mount one on my shoulder somehow.
I draw the aggro with numbers destruction while our mech can deal with vehicles and ships. I suppose you'll be assassinating mechs.  And for some reason, if you have any kind of white armor suit with a massive sniper-ish rifle strapped to your shoulder, I'm thinking tallgesse. So far, I'm probably going a fast 1 / Tough 2 hero into Dreadnought/Helix warrior, with a PAT armor and a Rhino cannon. If you can make one of those wieldable by a suit-empowered supersoldier thing. Only downside is that, with that build, I get +1 BAB at the start, so I need to pump my physical scores for shooting/carrying/toughness. I would just go tough 3 to dreadnought next level, but fast is almost necessary to keep up... or do you guys think a tough 3 could keep up, knowing he'd have no BAB increase for 4th level (dreadnoughts a med bab class...)?

Modifications to the base Unit. For PDCs that were based on the base unit I used a PDC of 40 for the Mecha (same as a standard large) Mods/other components PDC description extra slot Shoulders 20 allows 1 more component extra slot Visor 20 extra slot Belt 20 Singularity Core (FT78) 38 3 extra EQ slots. 2 on arms 1 anywhere else. Its is going to hurt if my mecha blows up. Sensor Baffler (FT72) 24 -10 to Comp Use to get info on my mech 2x Struct.

I'll start stating up my suit now and can change up anything that is disallowed. I noted the NanoRepair kit as it is 1 PL above ours, I did add the extra +5 to PDC, but if that is a problem i'll just change to another repair system that is a lower PL but on our tech level.This should be what my Suit and its related gear does: Speed 30 ground, 150 Fly (poor) AC AC +10, -8 ACP; +8 with shield Hardness 25 HP 200 Strength bonus 16 Resistance 10 fire res With shield only Name Attack roll Damage Type Range info H42a Excalibur energy sword Melee+3-4 4d6+3+Str slash/plasma damage Melee component, left arm Rhino Mass cannon Ranged-4 8d12 Ballistic 100' carried, 65lbs Component Abilities (not counted yet) Class 4 Sensors Darkvision 120', +4 Navigate & Spot, DC15 CU active scan (move action) f158, 10 mile emination Space skin Allows function in space, ignores vaccum Life support System Provides Air for 24 hrs.

We could get you a shrunken T-95 Cavalcade chain-gun. 7d6 damage. Add an alternate weapon: grenade launcher. We can use tech level 8, but it costs more (doesn't matter) and Stormcrow will likely rule we can shrink them down. The tsunami 480 Plasma cannon might be nice, 12d6 damage and you can have it deal damage in a 60 ft. cone. We could add an auto-fire modification to it.

so the party so far is
The Legged Shiparchangel.arcanis: anti vehicle artillery platform Flay: The heavy anti-infantry tankish thing jojo: money...oh, and melee backup, I guess, but mainly money Venn: I think some sort of melee mutant...? Nanshork: not too sure... Me: surgical assault (take out that one important guy while you worry about the mooks)
considering what you guys can do, I imagine I'll double up as skill monkey since nobody else seems to meet the criteria for having a bunch of skills, so I might take a level or two of int hero. Also, I think I'll take the Longshot over double railguns, since the Longshot does more damage than two railguns. Are there any penalties for using the big unwieldy sniper cannon at close range? If there are then I'll probably need a beam saber or something built into my armor for when you guys fail to let me be a coward.

I wouldn't say i'm so much an anti-vehicle platform just because I don't deal that much damage. I have a Rhino and a plasma sword that is about it for weapons. I intend on having an insane spot as soon as I can to take advantage of my sensor array. Most of the gear I have selected for my Mecha is to enhance survivability and provide utility for the group. Namely comm systems, target data on other vehicles, and some brute force to open stubborn jars. It also allows me to operate in space in case we have some sort of issue there. I could pull some stuff and get an AI to help facilitate data acquisition and processing but i don't think it is all that needed. Also keep in mind even if i was brissiling with guns i don't have enough actions to fire them all.

jojo: money...oh, and melee backup, I guess, but mainly money
I will also have 5 skills 7-2(INT). So I can kinda skillmonkey social skills. I have the carzy armor and stuff, so I'm Going to end up tanking a fair bit. I'll also end up as the medic, because I have plastiflesh. It also allows me to operate in space in case we have some sort of issue there.
Just like my armor! I could pull some stuff and get an AI to help facilitate data acquisition and processing but i don't think it is all that needed.
Don't worry I've already got that implanted in my head. I had to remove 60% of my brain mass for it to fit. It has an internet connection.

Working on my character sheet now. I will say up front if I accentually shoot one of you guys I'm sorry, stupid -4 penalty for being in a Mecha without Mecha weap prof (i get free with my next level assuming we live that long) StormCrow how are we doing HP? Do i really need to worry about personal wealth with money bags here? Anyone else find the thought of a Large Invisible Mecha picking pockets  with a pretty good slight of hand nearly as fucking hilarious as I do?

Well in my defense low int implies crappy skills and I figured mecha stuff wouldn't make much sense to me so I didn't read all your equipment. So to try that again
Archangel: support/heavy hitter (you still have the strongest gun in that rhino) Flay: tank and...everything killer really (I'm not sure what specs your guns have, but you'll probably be able to cover all bases) Jojo: party wallet, face(if we can teach you not to say stupid things at least) and fighter Venn: melee monster Nanshork: still not sure Me: long ranged attacker
wow, I really feel like I'm not doing as much as the rest of you, I doubt the extra 20 feet the longshot can get (probably still less than the rhino because of size differences) will come into play very often, plus Flay probably has a gun with good range, making my niche filled, unless battlefields are actually going to be reaaally big which would make the melee members of the group (which is about half of us) become mostly useless.

Working on my character sheet now. I will say up front if I accentually shoot one of you guys I'm sorry, stupid -4 penalty for being in a Mecha without Mecha weap prof (i get free with my next level assuming we live that long) StormCrow how are we doing HP? Do i really need to worry about personal wealth with money bags here? Anyone else find the thought of a Large Invisible Mecha picking pockets  with a pretty good slight of hand nearly as fucking hilarious as I do? I could get you a feat implant for Mecha weapon Prof. The mecha picking pockets would be hilarious. Jojo: party wallet, face(if we can teach you not to say stupid things at least) and fighter
Specifically the fighter here.

Countdown to Zombie Apocalypse 97 When you see this, copy it into your sig and -1  Quotes In other words, he thinks there's a "correct" way to play D&D. *sigh* There is: Kill shit and loot the corpse! When you use a tool the way it was designed for -- its intended function -- then it will work very well for you.
But it's not the tool's fault if you use it for something else and you fail utterly, such as trying to eat cereal with a butterknife, pounding nails with a screwdriver, blogging to voice your political opinions, and brushing your teeth with a hammer.

Specifically the fighter here.I'm trying to avoid abusing Stormcrow too bad with my gear. Though i may just justify that to myself before it is all said and done.

Clerics and Druids are like the 4 and 2 in 42. Together they are the answer to the ultimate question in D&D. Retire the character before the DM smacks you with the Table as the book will feel totally inadequate now.-Hazren
