Star Wars: We Joined the Rebellion for This?! OOC

What about the jumppacks!

There's a very very easy solution to jumppacks that I'll warn all of you ahead of time just in case you ever, for some reason, get a hold of them.

"AIM UP!"

Hm, I don't see how that's any more a weakness than being stuck to the ground. At least it gives your enemies an extra dimention to worry about.

Has anyone ever commented on deflecting blaster fire with mirrors?

Everyone that's tried it has, for some reason, been killed by a blaster bolt.

That would work swimmingly against lasers.

Blasters aren't quite *lasers* though, are they?

No they aren't...although, I'm also willing to bet that if you had a powerful enough laser in a hand weapon, a mirror wouldn't stop it either since the heat would burn right through it.

Tried which? And what about my other question?

Tried holding a mirror against a blaster shot.

There isn't any real definiation of what blaster bolts technically are, but they aren't really lasers. To a point, they are lasers as we know them, but they have an added energy substance that makes them what they are(usually its Tibanna Gas mined from places like Bespin). All a mirror would do is shatter under the bolt, or, if it was constructed of a strong enough material, eat the shot like a durasteel wall.

And the other wasn't really a question...but either way, you're right, jetpacks do add another dimension...and a little speed. But that's it. Take some good aim and Mr. I-Want-To-Be-A-Mando-Soldier doesn't get to fly anymore.

And on another note...will give this about 2 or so more days to get the characters finished. Maybe more depending, but I'd like to get us moving asap.

I've updated my stats post with a blaster carbine.

 

[Dire Lemming]

How's Issachar?

 

[Brother Allard]

The character's basically done, I just need to work him into a board-friendly format. I'm hoping to have time to do that today. If not, then definitely tomorrow.
