    [Star Wars] Saga Edition's New Damage System

    But why would he make a comeback? Do your Pcs routinely shoot mooks in the back of the head at the end of combat? If their is another threat active, I'll be damned if I'll waste one of my precious actions (the most sought after resource in all RPGs) on shooting a fallen foe instead of targeting...

    What do you think about action points?

    Or True20's conviction. They reset with time and when players do something aprropriate to their nature.

    [Star Wars] Saga Edition's New Damage System

    I don't agree with this. Barring regeneration, an unconcious character is out of the fight. why waste a full round action and become exposed to AoO for a CdG? I can see somebody putting ane xtra shot into soembody to make sure they'r down, but in the chaos and confusion of battle taking the time...

    Dark*Matter: Discovery, The Chicago Ripper

    Yeah Cade, you almost convinced me that you don't have the hots for Z. Not. The byplay between the Doc and Cade had the risk of splitting the team when they least needed it. Looking at both of them, the two of them the smartest men he'd met, Larry decided to step in. "For a couple of really...

    Dark*Matter: Discovery, The Chicago Ripper

    Larry doesn't take to kindly to Cade's bullying of the Doc, but there's no time to waste. "Settle down Cade. We'll get to Z in time, don't worry. Remember, we're the good guys, the ones with the white hats." Turning to the rest of the team, he starts speaking. "We have two problems right now...

    Well, if you perfer simplicity, just let me pimp my streamlined Wealth rules here: http://iwattgaming.pbwiki.com/Equipment They're based on True20 and Moridin's Star Wars Wealth system, simplified even more. It adresses some of the artifacts that VGH mentioned up thread. My rules for combining...

    Dark*Matter: Discovery, The Chicago Ripper

    They want me to run a high speed pursuit? I usually have a wheel man for these things. With a shrug, the young grifter moves to follow the directions that Meredith relayed through Diego. "Tell them I'll try to eyeball the bad guys and follow, but that we need a proper chase vehicle/driver. Pronto."

    Dark*Matter: Discovery, The Chicago Ripper

    Getting his bearing from the radio chatter, Larry makes his way through the Chicago streets toward the rest of his companions. In a mutter he adds for Diego's sake. "You know what would be nice. A plan in which we didn't walk into a room and get shot at. As plans go, I think Custer did better...

    Well, who knows how long Xykon has had goblin servitor priests. :D After the third one died I wouldn't bother naming them either...

    Oots 426

    I'm pretty sure Redcloak isn't actually the goblin's name. It's just the handy nickname that Xykon can remember because, well, he uses a Red Cloak. :) It's hard pretending you care about other people when you're an immortal undead bent on the domination of the world.

    A Song of Ice & Fire RPG -- update

    I know, I know.... still you could at least include the skill groups, stunt rules, and other stuff from Iron Heroes. But mY IH fandboysism not withstanding, the True20 system is probably a better fit, specifically with the damage save mechanic.

    Dark*Matter: Discovery, The Chicago Ripper

    "Diego, you started picking up some tech skills with Cade. You handle it. I'll drive." As they return to their vehicle he adds, "You might want to let the Institute know about the explosion as well, we might need them to cover our backs with the cops."

    True20 Companion: Who's got it?

    I don't think this is fair though. People who feel it's the wekest chapter were expecting it to cover a huge amount of additional genres (Western, Pulp, Noir, etc...) I think it covers the more important rules well enough. My only beef with the modern chapter is that the equipment rules didn't...

    Dark*Matter: Discovery, The Chicago Ripper

    Diego really can move fast when he wants The ringing in his ears, Larry ruefully shakes his head. "Well, there goes any of the evidence we might need. Remind me to stop charging blindly into rooms, Diego. Momma Higgins little boy is tired of getting shot at." Once again a reckless charge had...

    Dark*Matter: Discovery, The Chicago Ripper

    "I have a bad feeling about this, Diego." Larry looks around for a trigger mechanism, as well as studying the C4 from a distance. "I say we get out, this whole thing fairly scream of a trap." OOC: I have a few ranks in DD, but I'm thinking this'll require Demolitions?
