[QUOTE="Arrgh! Mark!, post: 3695890, member: 14559"] Well, I just had a very successful Star Wars Saga game; lots of combat, investigation, and so on and even (Yes!) buddy banter, and leaving some nice plot hooks for the next adventure. Just a question - one of the characters, a Jedi focusing on Force powers and the like was wondering if he could use Force Slam on people without getting a Dark Side Point. He would always try to use Force Disarm (But it never worked - it's kinda hard) or persuade his way out of things, and so didn't want to tempt the Dark Side. The transgression rules are a lot easier on Jedi nowadays, which I don't mind. However, the PC in question used Force Slam on some (evil, criminal, murdering mercenaries that had brutally murdered several sentients) Rodians who were attacking the PC's when confronted. Seeing as it wasn't a blatantly evil act, but it was causing undue harm (He slammed them all - 27 hit points of damage against 8 hit point thugs) I was tempted but decided not to give him a DS point. (It was our first game - I think I might give them to him and have him use a force point to get rid of it next time) What do you guys think? Should I have given the darkside point? [/QUOTE]
