Living ENWorld for Star Wars?

[Festy_Dog]

Hmm, seems a lot has been done while I was away for the past couple of days. Nonetheless I've got my sights set on a Trandoshan Scout.

Again, I'll state that the problem withe Post-Endor is the chaos. Everyone is everywhere and no one really knows what's going on. There IS no chain of command for the Empire, and the Alliance goes crazy trying to figure one out for themselves. Its just a bit too much to handle...for post-Yavin...sure we've got only 3 years until Hoth, but who said its not just a small group of Rebels in this sector? They could patch together a fleet from merc ships...it was very common to do that.

I like that chaos!

There IS no chain of command for the Empire [...]

This is something I seriously doubt. The military chain was intact ("Follow the orders of your immediate superior" was drilled quite well into the mind of Imperial soldiers.) and only broke down at the top level with the warlords. And even they established very quickly a functioning chain of command in both military and civilian sectors within their respective domains. IIRC, the Imperial Remnant did have problems only with it's civilian structure, not the military one.
Sure there's no monolithic empire anymore (which also didn't exist when the Emperor was still alive), but even a single warlord leads impressive forces.



Anyway, no more arguments from me. Post-Yavin it is!

Looks good. As for PCs not being able to buy a ship...well, pool money...buy used...be patient.

I definatly agree with letting DMs use the suppliments they have open to them. Ultimate Alien Anthology is just too good for ideas.

I'd gladly take the position of Judge...but I'm going to hold back on DMing. I'm already DMing 6 games at the moment, and I'm not allowed(long story..hehe...) to DM anymore. I can handle Judge stuff though.

Question. Should we design major NPCs? TOwn admin, etc etc. I could stat them out from boredom...I love stating characters.

Regarding planet system creation- Pbartender I assume you are taking the lead on fleshing out the Noah system and the Freeport Relay.
But I have a question for other systems. Are we going to have an individual develop a system or just a planet? Obviously like LEW DMs have a chance to flesh out the worlds and develop them.

I dont think its a great priority in the beginning since we should start small.

And thanks Pbartender for making the jump from us talking about the sector to actually making something.

As for travel, Im sure there are entrepenurial companies that have transport lines and probably a few used starship delaers somewhere in the Noah System.

Should we perhaps begin to organize what were doing in different threads? A sector thread, rules thread, etc..

Certainly. And since I've got the idea, I'll stat up the main portions of the Rebel and Imperial Forces (it won't take long), since they tend to stay in the vicinity of the Noah system.

Exactly. I'd start with a few systems close to Noah. Build a system at a time, and if people want to divide the work of a single system up by planets, that's up to them.

Also, is there a more appropriate forum to move this to, temporarily?

I'm going to setup a preliminary web-site, so I can start posting finalized details there. Perhaps I'll also setup a Yahoo groups account for ease of communications amongst the Judges.

 

[Ankh-Morpork Guard]

A Yahoo Group thing sounds good. Hmm...oh! I assume we'll want at least one old Jedi hiding around somewhere?

 

[Douane]

Be VERY clear about what is allowed and what is not, and have somebody checking, to make sure everything is kosher. Have a person to review characters from the begining (having a couple of dozen characters waiting to be reviewed can get ugly).

I hereby put forward my application for the position of "Judge in charge of character affairs".

Besides checking the PC's I would work with those who, like GaryH, don't have the Revised Corerules to adjust their characters. In addition, I would be willing to help anyone who proclaims interest in playing to put their ideas into a proper RCR character.

I've got the Yahoo group setup. I'm testing the email forwarding. Once I'm certain it works, I'll invite the other judges in, whoever they may be.

Either that, or some secret society of Force Adepts. Although, I've always wanted to create an NPC based on the portrait of the "Failed Jedi" in the old WEG rulebook... A scruffy old guy in tattered robes sitting alone and despondent in a bar, Force-juggling a couple of salt shakers.

That's fine by me, unless someone else objects.

That salt juggling Force adept is quite an image.

I can attest to Douane's Pc checking from my game, so I have no objections.

 

[ES2]

No objections here. I just want to play.
