But I'm "old skool" and view anything that wasn't in Ep. IV-V with a wary eye (no ewoks, gungans, sy snootles or talking green rabbits for my game!). I really disliked UAA at first, but it has grown on me a bit since... However, it still doesn't see much use; I only have one non-human PC in my game (a Duros, and they are listed in the RCR, too). I can't beliieve the only place they list rules for an ion grenade is under the Jawa entry in UAA. It should have been in the RCR or A&EG, LOL. I found the entry by accident AFTER I needed to know the rules!!!  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f641.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":(" title="Frown    :("  data-smilie="3"data-shortname=":(" />   If we want to use alien NPCs, we just use standard human stats and say they are aliens of such and such a species. Too much trouble to figure out their stat mods, etc., unless the PCs are fighting a bunch of them and I have some extra time on my hands to tweak the stats. Exceptions of course for aliens with special powers who are major NPCs (of which so far there are exactly none in my game), probably because it's extra work for me and I run humanocentric games (whether D&D or Star Wars).</blockquote>
