    Decipher

    Oh Wars did come out and I think it was a great card game, and Mongoose did print the rpg book based on the games universe, but it was d20 so I didn't purchase it. But they didn't take off, and Wars was cancelled after one expansion and I think the rpg died a horrible fateful death.

    Subsequent Star Wars Saga Books?

    Yeah, I know. I just hate having to wait for these products when I want them sooooo soon. :) I mean, WEG was able to release one to two star wars books a month when they had the license. I miss the good ole days. :sigh:

    [SWSE] Fiddling

    The Jedi could easily be changed to Monk, and the Force aspect just simply Monk abilities, give them flavor names and bamm, you have yourself a mystical warrior who is just intuned with his/her body and finding the power within. Instead of the powers being from an energy field that is generated...

    [SWSE] Fiddling

    One thing I did notice in this book is that Defense bonuses from the classes don't stack, unlike previous d20 products with saving throws that did stack. Another thing I noticed is that Force Training is NOT a bonus feat for the Jedi class, which strikes me as odd but at the same time really...

    Subsequent Star Wars Saga Books?

    Yeah yeah, I know. It sucks for us rpgers. I just don't know why they can't get an agreement for more rpg books and keep the minis line... after all, it would only boost their profits in the long run, right? Heck, even if they just wrote pdf only books, and in black and white instead of...

    [SWSE] Fiddling

    I like the idea but the Soldiers starting feats are the two Armor Proficiencies and the three weapon proficiencies. How do you get Force Sensitive, Force Training and Martial Arts I, which are three feats, but a 1st level human gets the one starting feat plus the racial bonus feat, which would...

    Subsequent Star Wars Saga Books?

    I just hate that we have to wait so darn long for these books. They better be working on new versions of the Galactic Campaign Guide and the Hero's Guide as these were, IMO, the two best written sourcebooks for the RCR and I don't wanna pay 60$ for each. :) And they better be working on a...

    Superhero RPG

    Well its no surprise that Mutants and Masterminds would be nominated most on these boards, as these are so biased towards d20 that most others aren't even considered. So, beyond all these 'another vote for M&M' and 'M&M2e' is the way to go, please look at Wild Talents before you look at another...

    GURPS or HERO?

    Of just those two, HERO all the way. And my reason is... I understand the logic of HERO and its design, it makes sense to me. I can read the book, understand it and its order of chapters, and it just makes sense. To me. I do not understand the design and logic of GURPS. It doesn't make...

    Star Wars Saga, the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

    The Good - Square book, streamlined rules, condensed classes and skills and feats and force powers, complete versatility in character design. The Bad - Reliant on the miniatures rules for the new combat rules and having speeds listed as squares instead of meters or feet. The Ugly - Lack of...

    Star Wars Saga, the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

    I'm confused by what you are saying here... I've got the book, but not with me, and not therefore am I allowed to look and see what you are trying to say about this skill. Are you saying that this skill is Trained Only, or that only certan aspects are Trained Only and they are just not...

    Oops! I think I killed rpg.net

    I can't get it to come up. Darn it, I wanted to vent like I can't on here. Oh well, it will have to wait I guess.

    S.M.Stirling's "Dies the Fire" Trilogy (cool new map)

    I've only read the first book in the series and quite enjoyed it, even thinking to myself how cool it would make for a campaign setting. I'm glad to see that I"m not the only one who has thought this. To cool, and thanks for the link. I have to pick up his other series, since it is kinda...

    Monte Cook's World of Darkness Cover on Amazon

    I saw the cover, saw how much awesome it looks, and I'm sold. The fact that it includes vamps, wolfies, mages, AND demons and regular awakened people, that's just damn cool. And since I go for the whole coolness factor in a game and how much that drives my imagination and not just a system...

    Monte Cooks WoD is for 3.5

    I am so gettinng this book, I don't care if its d20 or Storytelling system or what... I'm a gamer and I'm not all that picky so I'm all for this. Plus its Monte, and he does well with taking a standard trope and twisting it so its different and yet enjoyable.

    WotC Replies: Statements by WotC employees regarding Dragon/Dungeon going online

    Here's the thing about the whole situation as far as my opinion goes... After hearing of the announcement, I was amazed and shocked. I had been purchasing these magazines off and on ever since 3e came out, and I am surprised that they are cancelling them. I think going straight online is a...

    Arcana Evolved with another setting

    I've been wanting to use the AE game in my own setting but the ties to ceremonies and rituals, via Ceremonial feats, is sorta causing some blockage in my own efforts. I was just wondering how someone would divorce the AE system, races, classes and feats, from the idea of depending on...
