Errors and Corrigenda

While I was designing the Tiger class of fighting vehicles today, I had out my
copy of Striker to do a few cross checkes, and noticed the answer to something
that had disturbed me previously.  It would appear from the MegaTraveller design
rules that Mass Driver guns are not cost effective because they are such huge
energy hogs.  However...all other gun rules are completely compatible with
Striker.  Rates of Fire are doubled from Striker's "per 30 second" basis to
a "per minute" basis.  On P.78 of MegaTraveller Book 2, ROF for MD guns is given
as 1 for the base energy amount.  If you cehck Striker, you will notice that
that you calculate the same base energy, for a rate of fire of 1 *per second*.
I suppose that this was supposed to be the same, and should be noted by anyone
working on this sort of stuff.

This means that any previously designed vehicles with mass driver guns (and I
ahve at least one in the collection I uploaded previously) should have their
rates of fiore multiplied by 60.  This may or may not hold true for 101
Vehicles (I haven't checked yet).

An error noted on Vehicles Part 4:  The "Hoplite" TL15 grav tank is
displacement 4, not 6.

Does anyone else care about this sort of stuff?

Sorry about the typing today...in a hurry.
