Tired of rolling buckets of dice for heavy weaponry, or having supers who can't stand up to nuclear weapons? This system takes a logarithmic approach to damage, adapting the numerical progression found in the GURPS Speed/Range and Size Table to damage and armor values.
Use the Old dice to New dice columns to convert all gun, beam weapon, explosive and energy melee weapon damage above 3d (but not ST-based damage).
Use the Old DR to New DR columns to convert all Vehicles, Robots, Mecha and personal armor DR that is above DR 10, but not magical DR or DR bought as per GURPS Supers /Compendium I .
Use the Old ST to New ST columns to convert Bestiaryl, Dinosaurs, Vehicles, Robot and Mecha ST values if they are above ST 30, as these were built on a linear fashion. Do not convert ST for supers or aliens, as these are intended to be semi- logarithmic.
For lifting purposes, convert new ST to old ST to determine effective ST for carrying stuff.
