The Master of Ballantrae is a fantastic, action-packed 1950s pirate movie (it's even in color). Errol Flynn does swashbuckling to a "T" in this romantic maritime adventure. A nobleman from Scotland (Flynn) rebels against the king, but is forced to hide out on the open sea with his Irish...

Ankh, you are right. My game starts months prior to the KOTOR video game with Malak being in command of the Sith. Revan has been "dead" almost two and a half years. The whole Find Bastila/KOTOR plot will unfold with or without the PCs very shortly. To read all about my KOTOR campaign (including...

LOOKING FOR: Details on the character's master/padawan relationship, ideas on who the master is/what he's about, what he is up to, and ideas on how to bring him into the story. Details on Nal's life prior to joining the Jedi Order, his family, friends, etc. Ideas for the future of this...

I need help designing a backstory for my Star Wars d20/Knights of the Old Republic era Jedi Guardian, Verex Nal. Because my co-GM and I have been switching GMing duties, sometimes Verex Nal acts as a regular PC or GMPC (don't want to talk to myself or show favoritism!), depending on who's in the...

Morrow Project was awesome, bad rules or not (and I'm sure the rules were bad since we never ever considered using them again, LOL). We were terrified of combat due to its extreme deadliness and hit location/severity tables. The Frozen Chosen and those radiation vampires (what were they called...

I'm not talking major items like D&D, just something that randomly generates personal effects for individuals and various rooms, because players are forever searching and asking questions. "Dungeon dressing" so to speak, just some extra fun stuff: 1. Gold Frame with compromising photo of...

Naw, all my Star Wars players are like "we loot the bodies!" "Cool! I got an ion grenade and a hyper-battle stim!" "I get his credstick!" "Dibs on the cool helmet!" "I jack his blaster rifle!" "I'm hungry. What's in the refrigerator?" "Are these bearer bonds negotiable?"

Au contrair, mon frer... Every RPG is about loot!!! :lol:

I need a Star Wars or d20 Future type treasure table. I thought I saw one on the forum awhile back. Anybody got one for me? D&D has a zillion random treasure tables so where's the one for Star Wars? :(

There is a $35 softcover with B&W interior (!) you can buy. It's called something like "Tony Digiaromo's Complete Mafia d20" IIRC. I know I'm messing up the name somehow. Anyway, I saw it in my FLGS. It looked good, and was thick with rules and stuff (history of the mob, etc.). I would check it...

Huh. Well now. Looks like I can finally get a good night's sleep and stop wondering. Thanks. ;)

So... What exactly is an Ankh-Morpork Guard? No offense, I've just been curious about your screen name for years, LOL. :uhoh: BTW: I goofed about crits dealing double damage in Star Wars. Just like Spycraft, they only deal damage straight past VP to WP. They don't do double damage. However...

This thread is great. Keep it up. Am borrowing the maps and some descriptive elements for this week's Star Wars game, wherein the heroes infiltrate a (manned) Sith asteroid base...

Dude, it's a game. It's abstract. I see your point about shooting a guy sitting in a lawn chair sipping a beer, LOL, but I still prefer VP/WP to HP. How often do your players come across the BBEG sitting on his front porch in a rocking chair knocking back six-packs? Aren't BBEG's and major NPCs...

I wouldn't play any d20 game without VP/WP at this point. SW does not use sneak attack in the base classes. The scoundrel (rogue/thief equivalent) gets "precise attack" which is a scaling bonus to Dex-based attacks (must be either with ranged or finessed melee weapons). You apply the bonus to...

Well, I'd heard about VP/WP before for years thanks to Star Wars d20, and then other games that used it. It just sounded like more recordkeeping to me, yet I was constantly bitching about how many hit points PCs were racking up in my D&D game and how unkillable they were, LOL. Then I switched to...

Thanks! The title was not precise enough to evoke anything in me other than an unpleasant thought that the game was somehow based on the Brothers Grimm Fairy Tales. Horrible title, IMO, even knowing what it's about. I'll try and give it a looksie if my FLGS even carries it. Who published/wrote...

Will do. It's hopefully the next fantasy game I run, although we are excited about playing A Game of Thrones d20 RPG. Right now, though, I'm hooked on Star Wars d20. :cool:

WAIT A MINUTE! I'm a gosh-darned moron. I can resolve my dilemma while still appearing to give the players a choice to agonize over! If I make the enemy location an asteroid base, all I have to do is swap out the Sith for rogue Jedi and droids. Going to either base results in accessing the SAME...

I'm reconsidering running that adventure and just assigning it to qualified NPCs in the party... Why? Because it requires too much sneaky/sneaky, and not enough choppy/choppy. :D Unless you can think of a way for more combat action that still allows for the PCs to escape with the stolen info...
