Yes, the one listed with the new BRP book is an old version. That is a bit misleading, and disappointing. Might the Chaosium guys be persuaded to put the new version up now?

Hello Jason,

Is the optional location table unique or separated in a melee and a missile one?

It's the mêlée table alone, though the missile one might be added.

No idea. I hope so.

Charlie's recent account of his trip to France indicates to me that Chaosium has a new French publishing partner and a potential new BRP-based game.

Jason,

What are the movement rates in BRP?

Do we have:

1) Generic MOVE score that gives relative speeds-- MOVE 8

2) Move rate as meters per round--24m/MR

3) Move rate expressed in meters per Strike Rank---3m/SR

4) Something different?

[Kloster]

Hello Jason,

Does the MR include a 'declaration of intention' phase?

This one, though the value has been made 10 (as it appears in some other BRP games).

Yes, there's a statement phase in the default rules set.

There's also an optional rule box right next to that section of the rules titled "Eliminating or Reversing Statement of Intents".

Thanks for the info.
