Force Points fixed.
And I vote for giving the bonus and you rolling as well.

Hmm. I guess I'll just start off as is and perhaps have a translation module added on later if it seems too useful to do without.

I'm good with this. I'd even propose that during combat, to keep things flowing steadily, that we post our intended actions for the following two or three rounds with any provisions or conditions that would make us change our intended action as well as some corresponding alternative actions. Then Shadowbloodmoon could sumarize the results of a few rounds of action at once rather than spacing three rounds over a period of a week. Just an idea though.

I hope it doesn't come to that. I spent the better part of my sunday typing up responses to his myriad questions about Force Adepts and force skills. I'll understand if you do though. I *would* like to get the campaign rolling soon. :\
BTW, I was thinking about role-playing my droid today and it occured to me that since I can't really describe 1X's body language (being a black bowling ball with three unblinking eyes) or make any expressive beeps to show how I feel (a la R2) that I could take advantage of the text format of the forum and type out some of the data that 1X is processing in some kind of computer code format. Although it essentially shows what 1X is thinking and isn't really PC knowledge the other player's will have access to, I thought it might be more fun to read than his curt responses (DRK-1s aren't really designed to chat much). If anyone doesn't like the idea then just let me know and I'll reconsider.

I actually think that would be really cool if you did that. I like reading when characters are thinking, so I'd be interested to see how you describe a droid's thoughts. Then you can tell me if he dreams of electric sheep.
As far as the rounds go, we'll see what everyone else thinks and go from there. I've run Palladium games where each character has about 8 actions per round, so I could do it, but I want to make sure everyone else wouldn't be overwhelmed.
I'm pining to get this thing rolling as much as everyone else is though. Star Wars is action interspersed with moments of space opera. If we don't hear from Nephtys later tonight, I'll post the IC thread and we'll begin. I will then edit it to change any significant details once his character is posted, hopefully within the next day or two.
Nephtys... If you are having trouble finishing up your character, please let us know so we can help you.

Suggestion: It might work for your droid to speak like HK-47 from KOTOR.
Explanation: HK-47 uses a descriptive term at the beginning of each thing he says.
Statement: It can be quite funny while effective for a droid with no effective body language and little capacity for tonal changes.
[/Droid speak]
Example:
Owner: "Aaaghh! I'm on fire!"
Droid: "Sarcastic Retort: I hadn't noticed, Master."

I don't know if Ambrus will go for that one, but I'd be rolling on the floor laughing everytime if he did. Long lost decendant of HK-47's programming? He was always one of my favorite characters from that series of games. (drools for KOTOR 3 on XBox 360...)
