    Has anyone toyed with Harry Potter d20 rules?

    Grimm by FFG does a fair job of it, I think - there are specific spells which have to be learned, and once the spell has been learned, it can be cast as often as you like, as long as you have the imagination points to pay for it. In addition, while wands aren't strictly required for...

    The Star Wars Iconic Characters and the Rebels of Ralltiir.

    Arani takes a deep breath. "Not a problem. We've gotten out of worse scrapes than this," she tells herself. "Not that that helps any." Using the utensils from the food as improvised tools, Arani tries to get the lid of her crate open. If that fails and it probably will, given her...

    I got to playtest Castles and Crusades!

    I'm sure you're right, which is why I doubt I'll be buying C&C.

    I got to playtest Castles and Crusades!

    It's a definite turn-off for me, as is the modification to attribute bonuses. I'm interested in a more rules-light d20, but I still want a degree of compatibility with my other d20 stuff.

    OOC: Possibly a stupid question, but do the crates open from the inside?

    The Star Wars Iconic Characters and the Rebels of Ralltiir.

    Arani shuts off her book, and readies her pistol. As she does so, she desperatley tries to think of a cover story, but comes up empty.

    The Star Wars Iconic Characters and the Rebels of Ralltiir.

    Arani is as comfortable as she can be, under the circumstances. She has her trusty datapad in one hand so that she can finish the novel she's reading, and a glass of water in the other. As the ship enters realspace, she finishes her drink, then turns back to her book. No point in getting...

    While we wait for the game to start . . . Speak for yourself. :D The actress I've mentally "cast" as Arani (see current avatar, and yes, I know how geeky I'm being) is 29 years old. She was just playing a little young before, that's all.

    Apropos of nothing, I picked up Geonosis and the Outer Rim Worlds today. Haven't had a chance to read in depth yet, but the bits I've skimmed look nifty.

    So I was - fixed it now.

    I've got your back, Rory! Ranged attack bonus should be +5 (BAB +4, and +1 for dex); add Skill Mastery, Extreme Effort, and Evasion to SQ; by my math, you're short one skill point.

    Yep. That's what I did, at least. Ready and willing.

    King Arthur - R&R or RPGO?

    This is me bucking the trend of the thread. After reading Ethan Skemp's comments on rpg.net , I'm planning on picking up the R&R book. I've been toying for years with the idea of running a Camelot-style game with the PCs in the place of Arthur and co. I'll be getting their Greek book when it...

    I for one would be very glad to have you back in the game. But I hope you've got a really good explanation for where you've been the last thirteen years. :lol: EDIT - I'm suddenly picturing "Grosse Point Blank", but with lightsabers.

    Arani was officially 16 during the original adventure (and the Phantom Menace). Attack of the Clones was set ten years after that, and IIRC Episode III is going to be three years after; if we assume that we're picking up right after Episode III, that'll make Arani 29, and the rest of the PCs...

    It depends. Froma certain point of view, all the other Jedi have failed, where you've succeeded by surviving. You're the last (as far as you know) incarnation of the power and wisdom of the Jedi Order. (Like Set needs another reason to be arrogant. :lol: )

    We used 28-point buy, IIRC. As far as I'm concerned, I'd rather use Arani as is*, and just bump up her level. *Almost as is. If possible, I'd replace her Skill Emphasis (Bluff) feat with Cosmopolitan (Bluff) from the Hero's Guide. EDIT- this would actually free up a few skill points, but...

    Your ideas intrigue me, sir, and I would like to subscribe to your newsletter. Or to put it another way, that's pretty much exactly what I was thinking as well. I would say no lower than sixth and no higher than eighth level. That would reflect that years have passed, but since those years...
