Are you thinking of Stormtroopers or regular human soldiers? My preference would be for Stormtroopers. Both of the above would be compatible with being a Stormtrooper. Having the bulk of characters Stormtroopers would give the squad a nice cohesion. Plus it would look cool.I'm thinking about allowing players to swap two listed class skills for any two other skills. According to the SW book, Stormtroopers fall outside the regular army chain of command. Instead they report directly to the Emperor. This doesn't quite fit with what is in the movies. But it could work quite well here.I'll probably be throwing in some setting and character questions along the way. Here is one now.What is the garrison at Tantooine like?Down the track I am going to do a little backgrounding work. I'm thinking of having each of the players write a short description of how their character views each of the other characters. The views of others need not necessarily accord with the character's own view of themselves. As is often the case in real life. The other option is a little more drastic. Each player gets to suggest changes or additions to the backgrounds of the other characters. The character's player, however, retains the final say as to what is or isn't taken up. I've done this a couple of times and found it generally throws up ideas that the players adopt. Once people get over the feeling of 'stepping on the other players toes'. Anyway, we will see how it goes.Anyway, enough random musing. Sorry if this all seems a little ... unfocused. I'd love to just get started proper, but don't want to do so until I can have a clear run at things.dogheadaka thotd</blockquote>
