My IRL group started Onslaught at Arda I last night. A friend of mine wanted to get some DMing experience, so I let him run it using our EotE characters, with me finally putting a personality to my DMPC pilot. He hauled his laptop out and started using sound effects and dialog from the book that a friend of his recorded. It was awesome and now I feel bad that I hadn't thought of doing that before. Once the mission is done I'll ask him to provide me the audio in case anyone wants it, it's pretty professionally sounding.

I... really like that. Write it up and submit it to forceanddestinybeta@fantasyflightgames.com, maybe they'll listen (hint: they won't). I think I'm going to houserule that though, that sounds pretty awesome.

We've been enjoying Onslaught (me especially since it's the first time I'm not GMing in 4 years). Don't be afraid to prod you're players on if they get stuck on the freeform investigation sections, and be prepared to go off the rails when one of your players wants to do something insane. For instance, my guys (and me) built our characters as an ex pirate gang known for deep space boarding and seizure of ships who then joined the rebellion. So when the Star Destroyers showed up above Arda, we then had the bright idea to seize it. It didn't go well, but the GM adjusted the story appropriately and rolled with it.

Have one of the grey decisions they make give a small amount of conflict without telling them why, and don't let them take that decision back when they protest. Then show them how much it really doesn't hurt them. Shove it down their throats. Keep doing this until they understand that conflict is okay to do, and if they don't take it themselves you'll give it to them instead.

You can either get a PDF printer like CutePDF to save it to PDF or you can save it as XPS and upload it to Google Drive, which seems to handle those files fine.

That really depends on if your GM will let you take those trees. There is nothing mechanical that says you can't, just like with the Force trees in F&D. As for duty and obligation, that's usually either gained and lost through the story rather than mechanically.

When you use OggDude's character generator and add a vehicle, it'll add a page at the end of your character sheet for the vehicle that has Critical Hits and stuff. Example

Warnings about Moff D. Butt are still plaguing my characters. That's what they get for slicing in a fake Moff into the imperial net to get away with one of their hair brained schemes months ago. Moff D. Butt is really powerful now, according to the rumors.

I'm free Wednesday nights for some online stuff. I can help you get Roll20 setup too, theres a full Star Wars dice app built in to it, and its pretty intuitive. Its a lot easier to do it that way than IRC.

A small ship that is bigger on the inside, but also has the most annoying AI that does everything on the ship itself, and is really annoying and paranoid. Also the AI is slowly unlocking new tech and systems as the crew does menial tasks, like clean that awful smelling paste coating the forward hold unlocks two fighters up front. So a cross between the following: Tardis Marvin the Paranoid Android Stargate: Universe Also make it look like a tie fighter.

My guys have found a really unique way to get around the whole "pilots do everything" type of senario, but this might be more specific to the game I'm running for them. They stole a Correlian corvette from the empire (don't ask, it was a series of rolls that were too good for me to not let them get away with it), and since its a capital type ship, the pilot really has the least important role. The big guy is now the commander/squad leader who's shouting commands at the others, including the pilot. The pilot now runs a fighter squad (he controls all of them as a single unit) and the others are all having a blast running their small part of the capital ship. But since thats now the norm for them, when they go back to their freighter, they each pick a thing that they know how to do and do it really, really well. And the commander still barks orders to everyone instead of the pilot making all the decisions. Because thats how they know what to do now. So what I'm saying is, the system is really really designed for capital ship combat to be super exiciting, and if you stick your guys on a freighter for too long they'll probably groan and moan if the have do their one roll to rebalance the shields or whatever. Give them a Star Destroyer. This is Star Wars, not loving Traveller. Mustache Ride fucked around with this message at 18:29 on Aug 17, 2015 |

I think they were in the Edge of the Empire Beta? I found this on the FFG community forums supposedly pulled from there: TUSKEN RAIDER SNIPERS/REAVERS (Minions) Brawn 3, Agility 2, Intellect 2, Cunning 2, Willpower 1, Presence 1 Soak: 3. Wound Threshold: 5 Skills: Melee, Perception, Ranged (Heavy), Survival. Talents: None. Equipment: Slugthrower Rifle (Ranged [Heavy], Damage 7, Critical 5, Range [Medium], Cumbersome 2), Gaffi Stick (Melee, Damage 5, Critical 3, Range [Engaged], Defensive 1, Disorient 3). Edit: Also I found these blog posts that might come in handy: http://talesfromtheedgeoftheempire.blogspot.com/2013/11/tusken-camp.html http://talesfromtheedgeoftheempire.blogspot.com/2013/11/tuskens.html Mustache Ride fucked around with this message at 19:37 on Aug 28, 2015 |

Would anybody be interested in playing in a Age of Rebellion adaptation of WEG's old Darkstryder campaign? I think I'd like to do Roll20, but still trying to puzzle out the best way to do the multiple character thing (other than doing what my group did, which was ditch it and all play the same character the whole time). Anybody interested? Or have any thoughts on this?

Wow okay thats a lot of people. I'll whip up a Recruitment and suggest some times I'm available. With this many potential people participating, we may not have to do the multiple character poo poo at all, and just everybody play an officer and we can Star Trek every encounter (you know, send the whole bridge crew down to the surface, etc etc). Some of the campaign does ignore PCs at times, but I"ll work around that. I'll post in here when the Recruitment is put up.

I run a game at 7 PM central every Sunday. Thats not too bad of a time. I say run a game, but I've been out the past few weeks, and the holidays will probably screw us up again, but whatever. We played tonight, thats all that matters. Thread here. If you want to look in and see about joining we have room for a few more, maybe. We're a pretty eclectic group though.

Yeah we have a couple that don't show up every week, so thats not a big deal. If you want, go ahead and post in the thread. You're choice on characters, you just have to write yourself into the game.

homullus posted:Also don't be the "I'll stay back at the ship, it's what my character would do" guy. Really, that's even more important than being good at only piloting. Yeah in my group we're on our 4th ship. It's good to keep your pilot with you in case the bounty hunter decides he wants to go all Boba Fett instead of dicking around in a tramp freighter, so you don't have to go back to the ship to collect him.

It looks nice, and I certainly can see the use in having random quirks made up for a ship like you're doing, but I think it would be better if you made it a website than a standalone program. That way you can have it generate on the fly.
