I apologize if my response seemed rude to you. I didn't mean it that way, necessarily. It's just that I'm getting fed up with hearing so many people with a lack of imagination. It doesn't take that much work to come up with ways of using the rules for dramatic effect. If you're a player in a...

Za? Am I the only one that thinks that statement contradicts itself? Please clarify.

Well, it's not exactly a surefire way to hook the PCs, but if you know your PCs well enough, you could have an item that one or more of them desires be mentioned in the news (whatever medium you choose) and open up an opportunity to steal or protect such an item. Great for parties of thieves...

Well, Star Wars is really more fantasy than sci-fi, so if you're really looking for a hardcore sci-fi game, Star Wars is the wrong direction.

In Star Wars, every living thing has a connection to the Force. Force sensitives are only those few who are actually sensitive to it, and can actually manipulate or sense it better than others. The only reason I can see that anyone would want to use the term "action points" (which, by the way...

Apparently you haven't read through the description of the Sense feat, which all Force classes get for free at some point That easily explains how Anakin and Obi-Wan managed to sense the kouhuns (sp?) in Episode II. Furthermore, to almost make this funny, there is a See Force skill that allows...

I know that wasn't munchkinism. It's just that, from my experience, munchkins tend to take advantage of things like that. Plus, they make roleplaying a thousand times harder for those of us who enjoy the story more than the stats.

You're completely welcome. Thanks to people misreading rules I've started banning "munchkins" from my table. It's a sad existence, when all the joy you get out of a roleplaying game is tweaking the rules to your advantage ;)

Yep, just picked up my RCR to confirm it, and purely by accident opened right up to the page.

Not that I'm trying to tell you how to run your games or anything, but I noticed that, on that log, one of the characters is a Jedi Guardian 1/ Jedi Consular 1. IIRC, the RCR says you're not supposed to multiclass between the two. Just thought I'd point that out, in case you didn't know that...

Battlemind + fighting defensively = problem solved!

I think something that needs to be asked first is, have you ever actually played the game? Not that I'm implying you haven't, but if that is the case, there may be a number of things you're not taking into account. For example, Force-users have to split their skill points up between their...

Sounds like a pretty good idea to me. Really gets the point across about the Empire. You may want to be careful with your time breakups, though. They can occasionally make the game seem staganant at parts. Try to have your players write little stories about what they've been up to in between...

Actually, I have a book in my hand right now that says 13 is actually too old to become a padawan. Jedi Apprentice #1: The Rising Force is the story of how Obi-Wan became Qui-Gon's padawan, and it starts out with Obi-Wan about to be shipped off to the agri-corps because he's about to turn 13...

Animated series? I haven't heard anything about an animated series, but I've heard plenty about a live action series that George Lucas himself has commented on.

Ouch. I'm beaten.

Excellent work. I'm familiar with the burning plague, I read it for some inspiration for one of my D&D games. I probably won't use this one, as I'm not a big fan of dungeon crawl-style adventures in Star Wars, but it gives some good ideas on things that can easily be converted.

Hehe, I like those names, and those are some brilliant ideas! I hope you don't mind if I use them in my games.

Here's an idea I had when I was discussing with my friends what it's like switching cars. How about giving a bonus to a pilot based on their familiarity with their particular swoop? Like a +1 for someone who's been riding the same swoop for years, and a +2 to someone who designed and built...

I agree. The VP/WP system is great for Star Wars because it captures the action from the movies pretty well. An example from the movies of a critical hit was in "Return of the Jedi" when Leia, in the midst of all the action, suddenly gets shot with a blaster bolt in the arm, even though she...
