Low Tech Weapons
Low Tech Weapons is a hardware add-on for the Cepheus Engine roleplaying game. Low Tech Weapons provides you with a huge number of new melee weapons that can be added without fuss directly into your Cepheus Engine or 2D6-based SF RPG. Most are based on the deadly weapons invented and used throughout the Ancient and Medieval periods. On Low Tech planets¸ TL 1-3¸ these weapons may have alternative names. They will provide more variety than the current spread of spear¸ dagger¸ cutlass¸ sword.
Catapults¸ ballista and trebuchet are also included!
Included are a small number of Rules Options that referees may find add a little more verisimilitude to melee combats in Cepheus Engine. The Tech Levels covered (1-3) have the following approximate Terrestrial equivalencies: TL 0 Stone Age ¸ TL 1 Ancient/Medieval ¸ TL 2 Renaissance/Early Modern (1300 - 1700 AD)¸ TL 3 Industrial Revolution (1700-1860).
