Looks good. Can't wait to see the fluff to go with the crunch! :)

It is also a great resource for Star Wars images, which are a good place to get inspiration for a character. I've used it many times for just that reason.

What's the best way to show an image from Flickr? For some reason it's not working for me. (Is the best answer to host the images elsewhere?) Anyway, here's a link to a few good ones we've used: Chamber of Baphomet | Flickr - Photo Sharing! - A temple of Baphomet deep under the desert. The...

Great! Welcome aboard! If you have any specific questions about the system, go ahead and ask. It sounds like any of the three of us could answer them for you. What kind of character would you be interested in playing?

Yeah, basic starting characters. There are a few things I kind of want to note. 1) I don't particularly care if you fall perfectly within a race's range for attributes. They're pretty arbitrary, so as long as aren't totally min-maxing, I don't mind if you fudge a bit on those. 2) Since there...

So, how do you guys want to do this? Go ahead and start figuring out your characters, I guess. Do they know each other already? Have they been partners, working for whatever patron we come up with, for a while? Are they about to be thrown together through sheer coincidence (or the Force)? I'll...

The Revised Edition is the one I have. The one with the Millenium Falcon on the cover. I do like the idea of starting off faction-less, so to speak, and letting the characters decide where to go from there. Ideally, as a GM, I'd hope to have pros and cons for both sides of the war, so the PCs...

So, get them out and dust them off! :) Honestly, I re-found mine a few months ago and it hit me hard how much I missed playing this game. It's not a perfect system, by any means, but it was the system of choice among my group for several years, and the system I ran my first full...

I've been playing a regular D&D game with my home group for a while now, and it's great. BUT, I've been kind of jonesing for some Star Wars on the side. If I were to start up a WEG pBp campaign, would there be interest around these parts? In-Game Thread: Click Here Obsidian Portal Site...

I also have used Rich Berlew's Villain Workshop several times. I like it as a way to create a villain that is more than one dimensional, even if the PCs never really get all the information. This is the article. I've created quite a few interesting villains with that that I've never even...

I'm not sure if this will help or not. The best villain I ever used was dead before the campaign even began. I described a person to the players before the start of the game, and asked them to each come up with a reason their character hated him, because he was about to be hung after being...

Look to the God of War games for some inspiration if you need it. Kratos is always doing ridiculously epic things (especially in the second and third games) in the name of war. He actually is the God of War for a bit! Other than that, I'd say the most important thing about an Exarch of Kord is...

The most famous MacGuffin, or at least the most iconic, is the Maltese Falcon. The most important thing about it was that it wasn't even all that important, it was just the thing that got Sam Spade involved in the plot, and then a story happened. MacGuffins can be forgotten about, or they can...

I was thinking something almost exactly like evilhalfling mentioned. The artifact rules are almost perfect for a situation like this. On top of that, though, it would have some story things going on that the rules don't necessarily cover. When they take an extended rest in a town, something...

I don't know if you've read through the Slaying Stone, but it is a very good sandbox style adventure that has an item in it that isn't exactly like what you're describing, but has some similarities. You could look at that to get some inspiration, if you haven't already. What I would do...

Good to see I'm not completely crazy! I think the other guys I play with (who all happen to be very good friends of mine) kind of roll their eyes at me when I insist they select a mini to represent their character, but it is so much easier for me to get into the game if I have something...

I use a wishlist, but I don't let them decide exactly what they get. What I've done (and I'll admit, I haven't read the entire thread, so please to forgive me if this has already been mentioned) is create a deck of cards with items they want. They are currently 18th level, so the deck...

I'll see about fixing my work schedule. It might just be worth it for the Frequent Flyer Miles. The biggest thing, it sounds like, is you need to really come up with a good personality for the mentor character. Something the DM feels comfortable playing, so that the back and forth between the...

What if he gets competing visions? Like, each time he has a vision, he gets two different "takes" on it. Sometimes that means there's a good and bad take. Sometimes there's two good takes. Sometimes two bad (meaning, he'll have to choose the lesser of two evils). Or maybe there's both. With...

Or the online character builder, yes.
