I'm pretty sure that a hit that fails to do damage can't produce a crit.

Check page 158, under Critical Ratings. If a hit deals no damage it can't crit.

Can't one shot with a high enough base damage and a good crit rating blow it? That's pretty true to the source material after all.

The GM for my EotE game messaged me earlier and said that at some point he would be running a one-shot in the Clone Wars using this book and of course I wanted to play the OG version of my "Retired Clone Trooper" EotE character done up proper from this book. Hell yes! And then he told me that my mission would be set in the middle of Episode 3... when my character was under the command of another PC's Jedi brother...

Saga’s main problem, IIRC, was that it didn’t scale defenses well, especially against Force Powers. Was that correct or was that just our experience?

Owlbear Camus posted:Like a lot of level-based number D&D treadmill system's it did start to break down at higher levels. I find most D&D level 6-10 is the sweet spot for nice tight play. Yeah, my campaign got to about 10th or 11th and broke entirely as one Jedi became a murderblender and the other one became so good at using the Force that antagonists basically ceased to matter. In addition my first experience with it had one of the 1st level players Mind Tricking a 12th level bad guy successfully and derailing the GM’s entire campaign idea.

I’ve only ever done the manual install of Oggdude and I tried the web install tonight. Has it always thrown that bitly warning? Seems safe but I don’t want to give the link to my players if it’s not.

It did have one glaring flaw, though. Use the Force was a skill, and like any other skill you could take the Skill Focus feat to increase your roll. The problem is that powers such as the mind trick were rolled against the target’s 4e-style defense “saves”, and those didn’t increase at the same rate as skill bonuses when leveling. A character with Skill Focus and a decent Charisma score could mop the floor with most enemies of much higher levels with even mediocre rolls.

Yeah, some era play sourcebooks (High Republic, sequel trilogy) might be nice, but the basic game is complete to the point that adding more risks bloating.

Are there any specializations that unlock the Lightsaber skill outside of the FaD and Jedi ones? One of my players is looking to play a droid that was Order property before the Clone Wars and had been used for lightsaber training for Padawans. I suppose he could simply take one of the FaD specs with the understanding that the Force talents and Rating are useless to him, but that seems anti-fun.

Just started a campaign recently and one of the PCs is a Medic, who decided to go a pacifist route. Aside from Assist and the few nonlethal/barely violent weapons in the game (tanglers, repulsor guns), the PC wants to know what else they can do in combat to help out. Jamming stimpacks into people is the obvious route but I feel like it'll get old quick. Thoughts?

Since it may come up next session: I'm having a hard time finding rules for cutting through things with a lightsaber. I know they have Breach 1, but I don't really know how they interact with something like carving through a blast door. Is that covered anywhere in the books?

One of my players is engaging with crafting for the first time and I just want to check that I’m handling it correctly. Am I correct that on the actual construction roll you don’t cancel out Advantages and Threats the way that you do with a normal check, but rather that you keep track of each of those and use them to apply the little perks/drawbacks as noted? Or do you treat it as a normal roll and only use the net result? In other words, let’s say they roll a success with two Advantage and one Threat. Do they apply two Advantages worth of bonuses from the charts and then I do the same with one Threat, or do they simply apply one Advantage worth?

I'm putting together an encounter in which I want to have a bunch of individual minions group up as the fight goes on so as to indicate to the players that they need to deal with this problem early on. I can't find anything one way or the other about this in the rules. My main question is one of how to handle the initiative as they group up - is there any guidance as to which slots to remove from the track? Or am I thinking about this all wrong and the slots don't move off the track at all, and it's just the eligibility to use them changes? To give an example, let's say we have three minions, operating in initiative slots 6, 4, and 2 (descending, and very generalized). Two of the minions group up on the first round. During the second round, we would still have NPC slots at 6, 4, and 2, but only two of those slots can be used. Is this a better way of thinking about it?

Servetus posted:I would leave same initiative slots, no going twice, but as slots are left unfilled the remaining opponents use the most advantageous initiatives. So if you have three groups of minions opposing the party and one group gets wiped out, one initiative slot would be left unfilled unless reinforcements arrived, the remaining two groups would use the two better initiatives and leave the third empty. This is functionally what I was clumsily saying in my example and what I ended up doing last night. I’m happy to say it went well and the message of “take care of this problem before it snowballs” was clearly received.
