Hello,
Welcome to What We Have Decided So Far (DSF). Below I have included
everything that I could find or remember that we have reached a consensous upon.
If you have any of the missing equations or if you question what is below,
please speak up so I can correct this. This way we all know what is going on.
I'll be posting this weekly along with the POA.

Chassis

Name NPU Weight Body NPU: No Partiular Unit - the basic
--------------------------------- number of space units the
Mini 800 400 1 chassis contains (How about BVU
Small 1400 700 1 for basic vehicular units?)
Medium 2000 1000 2 Weight: Mass in kg of the chassis and
Large 2800 1400 3 related vehicle parts
X-Large 3800 1900 4 Body: Starting body score

ESU: Engine Space Units - the number of units of engine space an item takes up.
Each ESU takes two NPU (BVU) from the vehicle's total.
PSU: Passenger Space Units - the number of units of passenger space an item
takes up. Each PSU takes two NPU (BVU) from the vehicle's total.
CSU: Cargo Space Units - the number of units of cargo space an items takes up.
Each CSU takes one NPU (BVU) from the vehicle's total.


Engines
A engine is designated be two characteristics: its size in ESU and its type;
Internal combustion (IC) or Electric (Elec).
Power Units = (size)^2 PU
Weight = size kg

The following figures are derived from the engine:
Cruising Speed = m/combat turn
Maxium Speed = 3 * Cruising Speed
Effiency (IC) = km/lt
Effiency (Elec) = PF
