[QUOTE="Mallus, post: 5545321, member: 3887"] Thanks again for all the responses. We're playing in 3 hours, so I'll get my 1st taste of the system in action. The one thing I noticed is SW doesn't do long-duration or long-range magic/wahoo effects (no hour-long buffs or continent-spanning teleportation in a casters basic spell repertoire). Is this accurate? It's no big deal for the pulp sci-fi campaign, but we've been talking about converting an old magic-heavy 3e game of ours to SW. As DM, it's a feature, not a bug, but it is something to be mindful of if we do convert. Also, re: SW and Stars Wars... just reading over the Explorers Edition and Slipstream, the two seam like a good and easy fit. Force User becomes an Arcane Background, Jedi w/lightsabers who are aware of their attackers can use their Parry as the TN against ranged attacks, the Force could be represented by various Powers and Edges --it's not like Jedi/Sith [i]do[/i] much with it aside from telekinesis, lightning-shooting, and crazy long-jumps, the Jedi Mind Trick could be a Test of Will, and so on.
