Thanks for the quick response and explanation!

Yeah, the BRP book has some things that were left out, either for space constraints, or we the proof-readers didn't catch (that's what happens when you have been playing with the system for so long - some things are "a given", or house rules/alt rules have become so prevalent, you forget where the core/original rules stop and the house/alt rules begin). There used to be a discussion of rules and text that were left out, but I have no idea where it is.

Is this omission (and others) corrected in the errata or in PDF version?

I am anxiously awaiting this one.

This looks interesting. Though I noticed for some reason it is not at all listed on rpggeek.com.

I, too, would love to see any more information about a conversion. I have Gamma World 2nd ed, and have ran games since it came out in 1983. Some conversion tables would help with equipment, robots, machines, weapons, and armor. Hit points were much higher than in BRP too, so the weapon damage would have to be altered. The basic characteristics would be practically the same from what I can tell.
