Our characters started off as natives of a backward planet (without space travel or publicly-known contact with off-worlders). I chose the feat 'Weapon Group: slugthrowers' so that I would be able to use the weapons that are most common in the setting.In our first adventure we discovered that one government is secretly in contact with people from another planet, and is importing blaster weapons. We obtained some blaster pistols and blaster carbines. These I cannot use with proficiency, so I will not use them at all until I gain two levels and can gain another feat.Why should 'slugthrowers' be one group while blaster pistols and blaster carbines are separate? I would have thought that the skills used to aim slugthrower pistols would be more like those used for blaster pistols than those used for slugthrower rifles.Also, aren't lightsabers used in much the same way as bokken or fencing sabres? Shouldn't they be in a 'swords' group. Should swords really be in the same category as battleaxes? And shouldn't forcepikes be in the same category with pikes?Regards,Agback</blockquote>
