Is WP/VP OGL or in SRD?

You may want to double-check the legalities involved, before you post this file. For example, I'm fairly sure it is NOT ok to have "Wizards of the Coast" in the filename, nor to refer to the Star Wars Roleplaying Game in the text.
Agreed. The only "safe" info is from Unearthed Arcana, and even that would have to be reviewed.

Star Wars is definitely not Open Content.

Spycraft is not Open Content either. If I recall correctly it was accidentally left out of the OGL in the book. AEG specifically had special permission to use those rules...I think.

That's not the first time that happened... *looks at ceiling inocently*
I've rechecked my version trice (and got a lot of OCR errors out of the document while doing that) for PI 'oversights' that i might have mised.
This is not only WP/VP, but all of the chapter four variant rules:

You guys make me all misty eyed

Hey everyone, thanks for the help. The community here is pretty amazing and I was shocked to see typed up SRDs of UA. I don't know the legalities of this sort of thing but I not exactly trying to get anyone trouble.

I think I recall the Star War variant which I agree is a better system. I will be using DR for armor and like it applying to wounds only.

IIRC, the SW version is slightly different and I liked it better.
The "slightly different" part is the inclusion of the death's door rule (i.e., -1 to -9 points is dying and -10 is dead), assuming you didn't KO.

Footnote: both Star Wars Original Core Rulebook and the Unearthed Arcana have the exact same VP/WP system. Star Wars RCR and Spycraft have the slightly improved version.
 

Okay, the filename is only because I store them with the name of the producers, no big deal, i will chaneg it, as for the Star Wars bit, i really typed it all as it is on UA, so I just took hat section out, does not seem OGC and has nothing to do with game mechanics anyway.

Edit: I have also typed Hero Points, Armor as DR, Class Defense and will type Weapn Groups in the next month or so. ;)
