So unless there's a dramatic shift in this poll, looks like its going to be either Dark Times or Rebellion. Though its been a busy week for me(had a gallery opening of my work!), things should be calming down around Wednesday on my end.
And the more I've watched the poll, the more thought I've been giving to the two games on top. What's probably going to happen is that I'll make the final decision with this as a barometer. For the moment, the Rebellion game has some very fleshed out ideas in my head, while the Dark Times one has some definitely growing. I'll probably get them both written down, set up a basic structure and NPCs for both, then see which one strikes me as the better game.
...though I'll still keep an eye on this poll. Who knows, it could change dramaticaly, still!

What level/how experienced would the characters be in either the Dark Times or Rebellion era? It seems like the Surviving the Dark Times game would lean to mid-levels (7-10) if you wanted Jedi knights.
Where you thinking of something similair to Wraith Squadron as far as the Rebellion Era characters or more straight commandos?

Dark Times would definitely be in that level range. My leaning was on the lower end of that, around level 7 or 8.
As for the Rebellion game...actually, I've been thinking that would work well around the same level range. No Jedi Knights, of course, but competent, experienced PCs still. Though its possible for that game I'd drop down to around 4 or 5 even. That one's a bit more flexible.
Sort of, but not really. My initial thoughts on it were mostly straight commandos, but as I've thought on it more, its becoming sort of a blend between how the Wraith's were and just plain old commandos.
I think I see it as a sort of self-contained unit, like the Wraiths were, but not all are necessarily pilots. Each player would likely have their own role in the team, covering pretty much everything that would be needed from piloting to slicing and to good old fashioned gunslinging.
Also, for both games, the number of players is kind of up in the air, too. Where the Dark Times game would likely have a more disjointed group thrown together by necessity, the Rebellion game would most definitely be a unit. Still, both are rather flexible on the amount of players...so not sure on that one yet. (anticipating that question being asked!
)

Heh, I had a slightly sadistic idea that I know I won't end up doing.Yeoman said:Hehe, I was going to ask that before you answered it preemptively.
Just take all players interested, run a quick prologue, then whoever survives gets to stay around!
Like I said, sadistic!
