Give it a Fire Rate as well, to account for the kick this thing must have. Maybe a 2 rating.

Here's the next round of conversions. I think the last one will probably need the most work.

Hypoinjector Wristband
Type: Drug injection device
Cost: 350
Availability: 2
Game Notes: A hypoinjector wristband helps a character from succumbing to the effects of poisons or other harmful chemicals. The wristband contains a small monitoring device which scans for the presence of harmful chemicals, and stores up to 8 doses of vaccines, antidotes, or other medications. Once the presence of a harmful chemical or pathogen is detected, the hypoinjector automatically administers the necessary medication (if it is already pre-loaded into the wristband). The character then receives a +1D to all Strength rolls to resist the effects of the chemical or pathogen. The power cells must be replaced after 5 days of continuous use. Replacing the vials of medications or antidotes requires 1 round for a single vial, or 4 rounds for the entire set.

They look good to me. I'd just put Stamina instead of Strength in the last item.

Didn't most of the toxins in RoE have a STR roll to resist? Or is this one of those things where the official texts are divided what you use to resist what?

I think it's divided, but I think Stamina is a good way to go (otherwise, when would you ever use that skill?)

You'll correct me if I'm wrong.
Wouldn't Stam be used for like holding breath underwater? |

I guess it could, and also to keep running for a long time and things like that. But I doubt those rolls are a very common occurance...

Okay, I've been pouring through books, characters, weapons, and it's just all over the place in terms of the mechanics necessary to resist poison. Some poisons require STR, some require stamina. Why not just write in the mechanic that you get a +1D to either STR or stamina, whichever is required by the type of poison.
That way you're covered either way. We can let the existing game mechanics determine which you'll need.
I can understand the need for better use of stamina, but at the same time, just saying "stamina" without further explanation of mechanics leaves people in the dark when the type of poison they're using requires a STR. We would find ourselves in the position of trying to invent new mechanics in order to help them determine what to do.

Source: The Unknown Regions (page 41)
Personal Multitool
Type: multipurpose tool
Cost: 100
Availability: 1
Game Notes: Multitools vary, but a standard multitool carries 5-cm vibroblade, a low-power hydrospanner, a small hydrogrip, a toothpick, and a miniature set of eating utensils.

The vibroblade can be used as an impromptu weapon, dealing Str+1D damage.
Source: The Unknown Regions (page 41)

I know that the multitool is pretty general. But, hey... it's a multitool... Also, the hydrospanner has a similar mechanic, and so I borrowed that.

There's only one more page of equipment to go. Sure you don't want me to tackle something more, Gry?

Here's the last batch of equipment. Nothing terribly exciting.
| Quote: |
Riding Saddle
Type: Beast riding accessory
Cost: 125
Availability: 1
Game Notes: A riding saddle is a support for the comfort of the rider of an animal for which the saddle is specifically designed. The cost of most saddles is included with the purchase of a domesticated animal intended to be ridden.
Source: The Unknown Regions (page 41)
War Saddle
Type: Beast riding accessory
Cost: 250
Availability: 1
Game Notes: The use of a war saddle is to provide a sturdier platform for riding a creature. War saddles provide a +2 to beast riding rolls. They also allow a rider to direct an animal with his or her knees and stay in the saddle.
Source: The Unknown Regions (page 42)
Shipsuit
Model: Ayelic/Krongbing Textiles Shipsuit
Type: General purpose shipsuit
Cost: 200
Availability: 1
Game Notes: Multi-pocketed coverall, fireproof and electrically nonconductive.
Source: Gundark’s Fantastic Technology (page 76), Pirates & Privateers (page 47), The Unknown Regions (page 42)
Signal Wand
Type: Tightbeam and broadband transmission device
Cost: 300
Availability: 2
Game Notes: The wand is a .25 meter long stick capable of orbital-range broadband comlink communications. However, it can also transmit a tight-beam communication beyond an orbital gravity well. With sufficient power, the signal wand can reach interstellar distances, however, given the precise focus of a tightbeam transmission, the character must know exactly where to direct the signal wand. The wand also features an external red light for transmission of simple visual codes.
Source: The Unknown Regions (page 42)
Sonar Mapper
Type: Echolocation mapping scanner
Cost: 400
Availability: 1
Game Notes: Though not as accurate as a typical scanner, a sonar mapper is not uncommonly used as a backup device. By using echolocation, it is able to create a map using frequent pulses that are detected by a specialized sensor system. The pulses are only accurate for an area of up to 100 meters. The mapper also carries with it up to 12 hours of stored readings, making for an easy backup map if a character becomes lost.
Source: The Unknown Regions (page 42)
Subsonic Field Emitter
Type: Field pest repellent
Cost: 120
Availability: 1
Game Notes: This device is primarily for the comfort of a character not wishing to be disturbed by vermin or insects while outdoors. The emitter broadcasts a pulse attuned to the nervous system of extremely small nonsentient creatures. Insects and other such pests are unable to come within six meters of the emitter.
Source: The Unknown Regions (page 42)
Water Extractor
Type: Water collection and purification device
Cost: 400
Availability: 2
Game Notes: A water extractor is essentially a canteen with a water-condensing and purifying cone at the orifice. The condensers will collect water from the air and purify it, providing drinkable water to a character. Atmospheres on various planets provide different results, though a character on Tatooine will collect enough water to sustain a human being for a full day within 16 hours.

Good job. If you're feeling like it you could tackle creatures now.
