Not a problem, Rhun. I know Bloodweaver should be back today (I think), and I think he's got a couple of equipment things he was still looking at. At least my nervousness at beginning my first game is starting to abate, with anticipation replacing it. :)

Ah, that's cool as well. :) Right now, more of waiting for the deadline. The way things look, it's just the five of you, so more than likely I'll simply be putting up an RG post on the 26th and have everyone put their characters there, then get the opening post of the game later on that same...

By the way -- I do like the idea of having characters who already know one another. That gives me an idea to do with the opening post, at least. :)

Check the timeline in the opening post (added within the last couple or so days). It is currently the same year as the Battle of Yavin. Sector has been on Darkness for nearly forty years now (assuming I'm correct in that the Battle of Naboo is 32 BBY, and the Clone Wars 22-18 BBY, as Luke and...

Three-day supply of food capsules Medpac Grappling spike launcher Tool kit Spare power pack (x3) Spare energy cell Glow rod Total Weight: 3.6 kg This is gonna be different than how I'd originally intended, but that's because I'm going to do something different with the comlink: instead...

Well put, DEFCON 1. For my own part, I don't view myself as attempting to GM because I'm frustrated as a player, but rather the fact that it is "the undiscovered country". I've made one half-hearted attempt at GMing tabletop, but never had anything plotted out and it sputtered out after three...

Okay, any other questions? I saw Bloodweaver's vacation post, so I'll know not to expect hearing anything from him over the next several days. :) Pricing on items, etc.?

*nods* She wrote my favorite fan-created prestige class for D&D: the Bondblade. Outstanding work -- far better than the attempts I made at trying to convert some of the kits from the Complete Book of Necromancers into prestige classes over at the WOTC forums.

That, admittedly, is part of why I decided to bite the proverbial bullet and take a stab at DMing: I was in several games where the DM vanished (one DM due to RL, which I have no problem with, because you have to put RL first -- another DM dumped another game I was in without warning, griped...

Most of your missions will be at "night", as it were -- not that there's much difference between night and day, given the black sky overhead. Past that, I don't believe you'd simply be just walking down the street with it, not unless Sector decides to attempt another offensive like the one that...

Man, I did make that confusing, didn't I? *sheeps* About twenty years ago, the Myuni Wars occurred -- this is what led to Sector going underground and MarTech making their move to become the dominant power on Darkness. Seven years ago was when MarTech shut down the spaceport on Darkness...

Something I've noticed: maybe I didn't make it clear enough in the write-up, in which case I'll try and edit it to reflect the changes. But just so everyone's aware when coming up with their backgrounds: The current time is about the same time as the Battle of Yavin: in effect, Sector has...

I suppose we can give it a try and see how it works out. I almost couldn't find it at first, until I checked the Hero's Guide and found it there. I don't see any problems with using the mechanic, though.

Yeah, using sblock will work fine. I screwed up on your attacks and defense, though. Somehow, I got confused and thought the 16 was in Dex rather than Con. I edited my previous post to reflect the changes. Armor won't enhance your defense: in Star Wars, it provides damage reduction instead...

Heh, for something like that? Yeah, you're gonna need some good Sleight of Hand and Intimidate if you plan on carrying it around on the street. At least the team has heavy fire support covered. ;) Saves -- Base saves are Fort +3, Ref +4, Will +1; including your stats, you'll have Fort +6, Ref...

Scoundrel: cleric BAB (to make it simple, since most know D&D); 8 + Int modifier skill points per level; d6 vitality points + Con modifier (rounded to 5 + Con). Soldier: fighter BAB; 4 + Int modifier skill points per level; d10 vitality + Con modifier (rounded to 8 + Con). I'll assume you're...

Just post him here, Rhun. All I need for that email is just character name and concept (which the level breakdown alone is enough for me), and a number between 1-10 for my own twisted amusement. ;)

The frightening thing about this is that, in the campaign my DM ran 10 years ago in this setting, several of the FF7 characters were there -- Aeris, Cloud, Tifa, Barrett and a couple of others. I'm not gonna be using them, though. And don't tempt me to name my Tech Specialist support NPC for...

Bloodweaver1: Okay... couple of things on Cid. 1) Remember that there are Vitality/Wound points, not just "hit points" like in D&D. 25 VP, 10 WP. 2) In one place, you say Scoundrel 5. In another place, you say you're level 6. Just a heads' up. 3) Skills: You have 96 skill points...

Erran, from all appearances, seems intent on not giving the Hangman a chance to recover from the initial surprise attack. He does a quick study of his opponent, then comes in, snapping a quick one-two at the Hangman. "Get back under cover; we'll deal with this," he tells Telaria (although he...
