    If Hasbro Pulls the Plug....

    On a personal level, probably not much. I have everything already I need to play. On the hobby scale, I think it would effect any influx of stranger newbies. That is to say it isn't ones you invite, but the noobs that come to the boards in hopes of finding others newbies. Dead games rarely...

    What's your question on it? I'm assuming its the SAGA edition as well.

    Can Campaigns based on books be successful?

    It can be done. You just have to agree with the players with at the point that Canon ends. Take Game of Thrones for example, do you end it at the beheading or the red wedding? Star Wars depending on the ERA where do you cut it off. I'm in a Legacy campaign now, and we kept the canon on the...

    Provide an example of when FLUFF overrided > Crunch

    We have a Birthday Cinematic Rule. For your birthday, you get a move so blatantly crazy it belongs on the big screen. Example popping two gernades and jumping down the dino's thoart with them and surviving. Sometimes its just makes for good fun.

    What do your PCs do with prisoners?

    Depends which campaign and which character involved and any special circumstances. 1. Local Authority 2. Summary Executions 3. Question Release 4. New Trap Finder 5. Recruited Any of the five could happen. And I've had one character who has done all five in a Star Wars Campaign.

    Why Do You Play Evil Characters?

    Depends on the Campaign. I've played Evil PC's that have thrived in a Good-Aligned Campaign. Long as it ain't stupid evil it can be done. For me its all concept.

    Brainstorming help for a jedi oracle PC

    My group plays in Winchester on Fridays so I know I can't scoot over to Baltimore for a game there too. :D Are you playing SWSE? What levels? I did a Scoundrel/Jedi build in the Legacy Era that is my current character. He quickly became the face of the party. Sacrificing battle skills for...

    Brainstorming help for a jedi oracle PC

    Jedi Master Worror Dowmat Look him up. He was a healer and Battle Mediation expert. But he never carried a saber either.

    interesting star wars rp question

    Always got the classic black hole method theory. Add in that Ice Pirates method where if you don't follow an exacting course, you are lost forever to time.

    d20 star wars starships of the galaxy question

    Armor doesn't stack as far as I know. You have to remember as you increase your Pilot Skill the -2 penalty is easily overcome. Fighter = Nimble, hence the reason for pilot checks getting hampered due to more mass. Put extra armor on your cruiser and it can take a greater pounding. As far as...

    Should a DM buy the player splats?

    I've bought many cars without intentions of driving them. I strip them and use their parts. Bad analogy in theory but very good in my practice for me. :D I will take some parts of splats and use them. Some DM's let me use splats, some don't. I'm more comfortable with as a DM with the Core...

    Should a DM buy the player splats?

    I buy a lot of books. I use maybe a tenth of what I have. I primarily am a player. On occassion I DM. Generally DM'ing I'm more comfortable with Core only or maybe a few things from the splats. The one exception I've found from the rule is Star Wars Saga. All the books are 'core' in our...

    D&D 5E (2014) cancelled 5e announcement at Gencon??? Anyone know anything about this?

    That's actually the first time I read something like that. It's actually quite interesting because it's actually a very sound theory. Cause just using myself as an example. I've bought more Paizo/Pathfinder books than I have WotC/4E books. Mainly because it's more in line with my wants for...

    How keen is too keen?

    You would love our SW SE game than. We use the forum to help advance plot usually. The game night itself is mainly for the combats or heavy player interaction stuff. Course we write a lot of extra stuff in. In a thread I just made a post to about 10 minutes ago, it's all background noise...

    How keen is too keen?

    Wierd Vibe = No thanks Those of us in the thirty plus crowd generally have kids/families to consider. Wierd vibes would put me off too. But also for me, I make my living by being available to my job via email or phone. So in a 12hour period I would probably have wierded him out with multiple...

    D&D 5E (2014) cancelled 5e announcement at Gencon??? Anyone know anything about this?

    Who cares? Honestly, it would really only matter if and when they make the annoucement. Morrus did his job to the community in letting us know a rumor he heard from a fairly reliable source. None of us can confirm or deny this rumor because it is of something that was cancelled that wasn't...

    Shelving

    Having short length shelves are the key for you. Even your hardwoods will warp/bow over time if they don't have center support. O and the shelves at Lowes/Home Depot that are steel framed and particle board will hold just fine as well. I use them in my garage and can vouch for their...

    Holy sheepdip - wotc to republish old editions

    So your willingly putting yourself into a no compromise situation. Personally if WotC were to do all this behind the DDI I would treat it much like I would my Costco/Sam's/BJ's membership. I pay an annual fee to have access to their store. WotC's/Hasbro's major concern has to be their bottom...

    Holy sheepdip - wotc to republish old editions

    Yeah it has issues, but that is pretty much throne sitting thinking on it coming up with it as an outsider looking in. The majority of the crowd that WotC would be targeting with releasing, would be an older more mature crowd who already budget and have expendable income. But also my model was...
