An an old Duke Nukem fan, I miss the BFG's. I have a 2nd account with a commando character. Any way you could slip BFG's in as a commando cert?

For those of you too young to remember Duke Nukem, a BFG was practically a suicide weapon in that more than half the time you fired the thing, you killed yourself as well as just about everything around you. Especially if you fired it in an enclosed area. The blast kinda spread through all available space like a fluid until it it reached its maximum volume. That usually meant you got toasted too. Guess you could get the same effect by strapping on a bunch of MSE bomb droids and running into the middle of a spawn blowing it and yourself up.

Well, it was good for laughs and a weapon to keep handy when you saw you were being overrun and were gonna die anyway.

Since it would violate forum polices on profanity, I won't tell you what BFG stands for. But I imagine you can guess.

BFG was in Doom, not Duke 3D

LOL! Okie, I am getting old. Forgetting which game it was now.

So to cover my mistake, I'll quote the Duke, "Cleanup on Isle 4!!"

Microphones were always a real treat in Duke Nukem. You would never know what Duke would say when you used one. My favorite was the one in the radio station. But I can't quote it here because it would violate forum policies on forbidden words.

What do you call the past 2 years? A picnic?! We've been killing ourselves with our own attacks since June of '03, with the CU we're finally gonna kill the -other- guy...

I want a BFG. Ill set the plan...


Armor Piercing: Heavy


Min Damage : 1342

Max Damage : 5752


Radius : 43.4 yards (Can hurt yourself, all fairness, it happens in Doom 3. It is a suicide weapon. lol.)


Speed : 3.7 (3.0 lowest it can go. We need to balance it off a bit Plus, you couldnt fire a BFG fast)


Damage Type - 25% Acid, 25% Fire, 50% Electricity


Point Blank @ 0m = -50

Ideal @ 50m = +34

Long Range @ 105m = -27


Special Attack Cost (special attacks shouldnt even be allowed, lol. But for arguments sake...)

Health: 102

Action : 156 (BFG, by definition, is big.. Big = Heavy = takes action)

Mind : 0 (Anyone using a BFG has to be insane, so the insane cant spare any mind, lol)


*Special Note* This weapon wont decay from death or use.

*Non Sliced*




This would be a wounderful gun.
