<div>In the Alpha Dawn rules, the effects of gravity are an optional rule, but it only seems to impact a few things such as the Yazarian's gliding distance, the amount of weight a character can carry, safe leaping distance and falling damage.</div><div><br /></div><div>Movement rates are not affected for characters or robots or vehicles. Projectile weapons have the same range.</div><div><br /></div><div>So, should there be any impact of gravity on the distance that a person can toss a grenade? Hurl a spear? Throw a knife?</div><div><br /></div><div>Or should we just say that things even out? Sure a Dralasite might be able to move faster in a lower gravity environment, but the bullets fly faster and longer anyway so what's the difference?</div><div><br /></div><div>Yeah, a bomb or grenade falling from an aircar might fall a bit faster in a heavy gravity environment, but Star Frontiers isn't a science class.</div><div><br /></div><div>Anyone have any thoughts on this topic?</div>
