Star Wars: Republic and Empire (OOC thread)

[drothgery]

I PM'd Shaggy (I don't know if that works if you're PMing someone who's not a community supporter, but I didn't get an error) saying he's got until Tuesday to post his character.

A few general notes
1 - If you use anything from a book other than the main SWSE rulebook, please note it.
2 - You should choose a Destiny. You have 3 Destiny points; I'm going to assume you've used the other two somehow.

Blackrat/Storm
- Are you sure you want the Combat Implant? You're proficient with most weapons anyway, and the penalties for implants seem kind of steep.
- You'd do slightly more damage with your lightsaber by wielding it two-handed

Tailspinner/Saricia
- It might be better to take a feat other than Starship Designer; it's unlikely you'll get the down time to use it; not sure what I'd replace it with, though

Possum/Rosa
- No mechanical nitpicks

Shayuri/Zenith
- As a pilot, you probably want to be proficient with starfighter weapons somehow (the Vehicular Combat Feat, the Weapon Proficiency (Heavy) Feat, or the Scoundrel's Spacehound talent will do this). Though a P-wing bomber has a pilot and a gunner, so it's not strictly necessary.

Oh... I was just skimming through the books looking for something to spend money on . I didn't even notice they had some penalties. Have to check that again...

Ah. Overlooked that. Have to correct.

 

[Shayuri]

Hm!

I read the vehicle combat section twice, but it never mentioned proficiency.

Shucks. Okay...I'll...hmm...I'll fix.

 

[drothgery]

It's not there. It's under the weapon prof feats, and under weapon groups. Though the existence of the spacehound talent and the fact that the vehicular combat feat gives a pilot proficiency with pilot-operated vehicle weapons sort of implies it.

 

[Shayuri]

Arr, I didn't catch those. Thanks for the catch!

Traded Improved Defenses feat for Starship Designer feat. That's what I had originally picked before I saw the Starship Designer feat in SotG.

Knew I should've read the implant section better. Yeah, I'm going to drop it. Now where am I going to put 5k. Guess I have quite a bank account

Well, this is SWSE; it's really not all about your gear. Besides, you'll normally be in a multi-million credit frigate or a 200,000+ credit starfighter...

Apparently non-community supporters can't get PMs, so unless Shaggy drops Bel's character sheet in Real Soon Now, I'm going to start without him.

I believe you can view his public profile and leave a visitor message there.

Um, can I buy me a droid? The problem is, the Threats of the Galaxy has big oversights in it, and they have missed the price on the droid I was interested. That is, The Probe Droid from p149. I don't think it's too hard to calculate the price (especially since it has the standard 3 nonheroic levels) but I'd rather let you do it, if it's even feasible to have one.

Though I'd like to replace the grenade launcher with a blaster pistol. That way I can keep it as a training droid .
