Common Calculation Concerns: Skull Crushing and FTE Movement

Status
Not open for further replies.
I personally think that it seems to make sense, but I am not a calc group member.
 
Yes, if he finds the time. He is very busy IRL.
 
(I apologize if this is kinda necroish) What should the proposal be for downgrading from subsonic?
 
(I apologize if this is kinda necroish) What should the proposal be for downgrading from subsonic?
I think that part was already handled. No downgrades. Basically you gotta move faster than speeding cars, skydivers and other Subsonic stuff to be FTE as per the notes below.

You can't get speed from a reaction time without a calc, though.


Subsonic FTE comes form the fact that we can see people moving at subsonic speed, such as skydivers and motorcyclists, meaning that FTE characters need to be faster than those. For the time being the 5/13 ms figures aren't used.



I added something. Hope everyone is ok with that until someone finds a better solution.
 
Basically, only thing left now is to downgrade skull-crushing to the following below and give it an LS value.

Bump.

Here's my proposal for a draft to the skull-crushing section.

"Skulls have been easily destroyed before by large caliber rounds varying from 12-gauge shotgun slugs, .500 S&W Magnum hollow-point rounds and .308 Winchester-slash-7.62x51mm NATO rounds, all of which have muzzle energies at around 3000-3700 joules (Street level), with such damage being even possible with several types of elephant gun rounds. If one were to crush a skull with their bare hands, they would need to produce at least 500 kilograms of force, which is Class 1 lifting strength"

Does this work? Should I also add links to the calibers and give the MMA link where a 1100 J punch doesn't do much to the skull at all? And the curbstomp reference?

@Antvasima @DontTalkDT
 
Okay. That is probably fine, if other of our calc group members and/or DontTalk agree with it.
 
I will remind DontTalk about it.
 
Sorry to interrupt, but I'd like to make another suggestion based on another documentation. I do not know who made it, so I cannot give credit to the creator. It might even be DT's. I will link it at the end of the calc.

We need to find the weight to calculate the 15% of body weight part, so (15%)(62) = 9.3

I just realized that if the kgf is going to be converted N & into mass, these conversions aren’t necessary. The exception would be lbs to N conversion, which is multiplying lbf 4.448222 times (pg 65 (pdf pages)) (Archived). -> 1900 kg/(m^3) to 1.772 -> 9.32631579*10^-4 or 0.0977019816^3 = m^3

I do not know how accurate this is, but it can be checked thoroughly here. It is not much more organized, though.
This was based on my old pressure-based methodology if you go back a few pages, which kinda stopped making sense after real-life examples showed considerably less energy to pull it off. Like .500 S&W Magnum hollow-points, large shotgun shells, .308 rounds and a couple elephant rounds.

I imagine surface area has a lot to do with this, no?

Prolly (Maybe not so much for the hollow-points which cause even more damage by expanding), but then there's also the elephant foot thing which makes no sense either given that human punches exceeding 1100 J aren't nearly enough to smash a skull like egshells and neither are curbstomps enough (They do considerable damage to the skull, true, but nowhere near close to it getting crushed like an eggshell).

Bruh that looks like my old format & docs for my personal calcs, NOT the wiki itself. If you want to talk & critize me, do it on my message board since this conversation may derail. I'll read it today, tomorrow or in at least 8 days or more.

& I think I revealed one of my emails in the process LOL. How did you find my doc?

Bump. Still waiting for DT.
Here's my proposal for a draft to the skull-crushing section.

"Skulls have been easily destroyed before by large caliber rounds varying from 12-gauge shotgun slugs, .500 S&W Magnum hollow-point rounds and .308 Winchester-slash-7.62x51mm NATO rounds, all of which have muzzle energies at around 3000-3700 joules (Street level), with such damage being even possible with several types of elephant gun rounds. If one were to crush a skull with their bare hands, they would need to produce at least 500 kilograms of force, which is Class 1 lifting strength"

Does this work? Should I also add links to the calibers and give the MMA link where a 1100 J punch doesn't do much to the skull at all? And the curbstomp reference?

@Antvasima @DontTalkDT
@DontTalkDT

We would greatly appreciate some help from you here.
 
K. Should I link those 1100 J punches and normal human curbstomps being unable to shatter the skull as justification as well in the Common Feats page?

I can link the various elephant gun rounds used in the video to the draft later.

Sure, do as you like.
 
I have carried out the edits. Edit history here. Please check for any errors.

Also I'm surprised Class 1 LS now starts at 545 kg instead of the old 454 kg. Was that an editing error?
 
If the skull is slowly being crushed to pieces, would it still warrant 1.05931e5 joules?

It seemed fine to me at least, but I would naturally appreciate verifications.

I think that we talked about a deadlifting feat, and that somebody linked to information in our Lifting Strength page. If that is not the case, is somebody here willing to investigate please?
 
Thank you. Does the link still remain in the lifting strength page, or should I restore it?
 
Never mind. I handled it.

 
Never mind. I handled it.

Also Class 5 says this:

"Capable of lifting small trucks, etc."

Problem is, this also includes cars, station wagons and even SUVs (Tons of them within the 1000-5000 kg range). People might end up believing that lifting cars doesn't grant Class 5 LS (Even though common sense would indicate otherwise, and most cars weigh above the 1600 kg mark on average).

So I propose its Explanation to be this:

"Capable of lifting most cars, SUVs, vans, pickup trucks and trucks within the light-duty-to-medium-duty weight range".

Suggestions for improvements are welcome.

Is this fine with you?
 
Well, maybe it was inappropriate. I just did not want him to feel left out from a policy revision.

I mean, it's not... really a policy change? It's just adding stuff that already existed since the inception of the wiki.

Unless you wanna downgrade every family car lifting feat to below Class 5 that is, which would make even less sense.
