[SW Saga] The Second K'ril Incursion (OOC) [RE-RECRUITING]

[Douane]

Thanks for the excel map, drothgery!

Apology for the later post, but it's been a busy day.


[Edit: Oh, and no problem with the new crit style at all.]

Seeing as that would have actually increased the damage from my last crit, sure!

Tongue out of cheek, I actually really like the 4E style crits. I agree completely with the mathematical reasoning for their change. I'm all for switching to them for this game.

no Point Blank Shot due to range unless SW has a free 5' step that I can't find in the book.

There aren't any 5' / 2m / 1.5m / 1 square steps in SWSE, but point-blank range is a lot longer. Point-blank range for a rifle in SWSE is 30 squares (see the table on page 129). Practically speaking, most character-scale SWSE combat is going to be in point-blank range for anything but thrown weapons.

Yes, I just saw this in the book this morning after seeing your note from last round. Very nice to understand the ranges of things finally. Also thanks alot for the Excel grid, it looks great and makes things alot easier to figure. Sorry I waited so long to post my attack, wanted to see what those before me were doing so I didn't have to change my attack or put up 5 different combat options for the round. We're doing pretty well for our first SWSE combat I think.

Really, I was waiting for Kacela (who was up first). In combat, I'll usually write one post a day if I can.

Just as any FYI - the droid thinks it knows Devan's capabilities; it's just placing Hawke in the range of a random Republic naval officer.

Well, it's good enough for Sianni that the droid rated them the same. The intracies of how or why it did so are a bit beyond her, since mechanical stuff isn't really her strong suit and she is more of a 'people person'. (Unless Jedi, Hammerheads in love with their droids, Republic pilots in love with their ships, mMs [married Mandalorians], shady corporate magnates and their elderly bodyguard/wives or other "clearly dysfunctional personalities" are concerned. )

Besides the system seems to work somewhat accurately as it obiously recognized that Sianni ranks far above its present threat scale and therefore couldn't really categorize her threat level. * So don't you dare to have one of the droids identify the female Twi'lek in revealing clothes as "Target #7, probable identification: unknown Twi'lek dancer. Threat level: low to negligible." if you don't want to have one rabid Twi'lek female on your hands.



* The answer is yes. Yes, it is hard work to be that vain.

FWIW, Martina looks like she's in her late 40s, and slightly younger than her husband. While a kid like Sianni might think that's elderly, I doubt that's universal.

No, it couldn't possibly be because the droid couldn't see her when it was doing its threat identifications

 

[Zurai]

Wait... you mean Sianni isn't already rabid?!
