"Cut it out Cade. Search her in case she has more weapons or anything useful," he says as he rises to his feet, "and then can someone see to the bomb. Dorine, sweety, if you so much as blink the wrong way again, I'll have Meri cut your head off and just have the Doc here talk to your skull...

I could go with that. I think the Midichlorians aren't a great example of Canon controversy since truthfully they don't directly controvert anything from the OT, except that they caused such a dissonance with the previous mythology. I guess that's why I called it a G-canon conflict. :) Now...

prepare stat cards for each Talent you take, or maybe even some spreadsheets.

You forgot about sending a Giant Eagle to save the Heroes after they destroyed the McGuffin, totally destroying the meaning of their heroic Sacrifice.... what? :p Mcguffin might have a special meaning in RPGs though, since unlike in Hitchcock's films, the plot device usually is a device that...

Midichlorians...... NOOOOOOOO!

No Kidding, specially when you throw in G-canon material that contradicts itself ;) And the Christmas special... :p

Well, if you're not sure of the syndicate, you can always have a Ranchers Association they could work for. The ranchers might need to smuggle somebody/something out of the planet, so they hire the PCS (if a scoundrel) or maybe one of the PCs belongs to the association (noble). A side quests...

I'd make the recapture/stealing of the ship an integral part of your planning. That way you can actually have them ergain the ship just as soon as the the 2 capital ships leave. That way you can have a running battle up to the hanger and a quick escape. What exactly would a crime syndicate be...

That's what I meant by stressful for the paladin ;) I doubt you could write The Prince, and remain a paladin for long, but careful parsing of your grammar infrequently used wouldn't be a code breaker IMC. YMMV

Have you read Jordan's The Wheel of Time series? The Aes Sedai have become masters at making people believe something without lying (they physically can't speak something they believe untrue). There's a quote: An Aes Sedai never lies, but the truth she speaks may not be the truth you think you...

That was pretty cool... I'm going to have to work on my telekinesis. After the bullet wizzed past him, Larry yelps. "Goddamnit, take her down!". Looking around for whatever cover he could find, the telepath jumped behind a small rock and tried to make as small atarget as possible, holding the...

More crazy that ninjas, pirates, monkeys and dinosaurs? :p

Seeing the chaotic melee unfolding, Larry did the only sane thing. He called the detonator to him at the same time he advanced towards it. Once it was securely in his grasp, he moves so as to place Meredith between himself and Dorine. He didn't leave because he had no idea if the thing would go...

Well, IME the higher level the character, the more likely he is to use conviction for something other that toughness rerolls. Conviction to remove fatigue save modifiers (The Talent) are essential to make the master spellcaster effective for more than 3-4 rounds. My players get a lot of mileage...

Ah hell... Larry keeps all his attention focused on the switch, hoping he hat the skill to keep the button presses if she releases. OOC: I'll use an AP for Inititiative and ready a Far Hand...

Yeah, the degree of conviction gain is dependant on the style of game you play. High Fantasy, savethe world campaigns were the characters are very important to the plot, I'd give out Conviction like candy. The same for a swashbuckling campaign in the seven seas. In the first case because...

So what's the plan? Cade starts fiddling with his pda, and if the sh*t hits the fan we go in full blazes and bet on a good initiative? Seems very iffy to me..

If by plan you mean Larry's half assed attempts, then yes :lol:

Depends in what mood the writers of 24 are this week. Some days you can hack in using wireless tech, other days you have to physically splice the wires so that Chloe won't catch you... :p

I missed this amid the flamewar, but I really dig this idea. As I've mentioned before, some Natures come up more often than others*, IME, so this would maybe make up for that. Also, I'm not too generous with conviction rewards, so a static 2/day seems like a good number to me. * It's easy for...
