(Saga Edition): Star Wars Classics

[Ambrus]

I don't know if this post will get through seeing as how ENworld is still touch and go after being out of commission all weekend. I believe I've hammered out most of the details for my droid character, though seeing as this is my first saga character I'd appreciate if you'd double check my math and review my feat and talent selections. I'm still trying to figure out which amongst Droidcraft, Gearhead, Recall, Scavenger, Signature Item and Vehicle Systems Expertise are the feats that'd prove most useful to the group. Feel free to offer recommendations.

I also have a background that's almost ready, but I'll settle for getting this initial post up for review if possible first.

Ah, ENW works!

Ambrus, I can spare you 2k if you need it. I'll post the last revision to my character sometime tomorrow.

 

[Shalimar]

It seems fine.

*tentatively knocks on enWorld.

Seems fine to me. Welcome back, everyone.

Ambrus:I don't know if it was a mistake in choosing your droid's base, but Q4 is a blaster pistol.

Okay, everyone. I need confirmation on who is ready enough to play.

Ambrus, I can spare you 2k if you need it.

Thanks boss. I'll likely get a "datapad" secondary processor to aid in slicing and possibly a ranged weapon of some sort. Do you want me to integrate your character's power recharger into my droid's systems too?

It seems fine.

Great. Any recommendations feat-wise?

Ambrus:I don't know if it was a mistake in choosing your droid's base, but Q4 is a blaster pistol.

The Q7 astromech's writeup is described as having the "7" in its designation being a reference to it being the 7th version of the Q series droids. The previous six (Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4, Q5 and Q6) were merely prototypes that, for one reason or another weren't green-lighted for mass production. My droid is thus the fourth prototype of the Q series: Q4. I figure that, in its initial aurek configuration the Q4 was built without its repulsorlift engine and merely hoisted into the V-wing's astromech slot for testing purposes. Once it's repulsorlift engine was installed and a few other modifications made it's designation had the "B" (for "besh") added in to distinguish it from its "aurek" configuration; thus QB-4. It wasn't chosen as the Q series' final production model because, due to its superior technology enhancement and other refinements, it proved too costly to mass produce and so got shelved in favor of a cheaper prototype. Some of this is touched upon in my character's background. I figured that this would be a good way of justifying why my droid is more sophisticated than an average Q7.

I need to do a more complete background write-up and finalize Darryn's ship, but as for non-ship equipment and his stats, I think I'm good.

 

[Blackrat]

I have a small revision to make to my gear, but otherwise S'Sheer is ready. Are you going to post a RG thread Possum?

 

[Shalimar]

I'm ready to play.

You mean something like this?

Heh, thanks for the reminder.

 

[Galphanore]

Ready and willing.
