I think I'm leaning more toward the smuggler option, myself. My slicer will be a bit more rounded than, say, Ghent from Talon Karrde's organization. He'll have some fighting skills as well.

I think smuggler just won out. PM me your character concepts and a short bio. You can talk about them here as well, get some collaboration going, figure out how you know each other and such.

Take a look over the house rules post to get my general rules for character creation.

Time frame is a year or two before the events of A New Hope.

Let me know if you want to be the ship owner.

Thanks guys! Looking forward to this game

Has anyone claimed the pilot/ship owner character yet?

Ugor ? As a race?

http://www.rancorpit.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=5339

Is one idea

Skyler your slicer skilled in ship repairs or just mainly computers and security? With some combat?

I like tech chars also, just tend to be more repair oriented.

Also thought about a sector ranger, undercover. See the template I was working on.

Pilot char I have made is disqualified because it was an insane verpine.

3) No Verpines. That +2D Tech bonus is ridiculous. Just play a Tinnell.

8) No shapeshifters


Where are stats on Tinnell?

Ugh, just when rereading for the Tinnell question I seen number 8.

Ugor are amorphous is that what you mean by shapeshifter ?

The Ugor have a bit too much of an advantage; being able to redistribute their attributes once a round.

The Tinnell can be found here:

Thank you.

Not sure that I want to be a furry.

Lol in your reduced CP game the double CP for skill advancement would be bad for Ugor.

Aid to a smuggler game.

Hmm, copilot ? Or pilot? The Captain doesn'thave to be the pilot.

Savar, I had the same thought regarding the pilot that you did; I asked Kytross if my character could be the owner, but not necessarily the pilot. I thought offhandedly that someone (speaking generally) might like the options that would open up; lo, and behold, I then saw your post . . . .

Captain has command and control needs a high perception for personal interactions. Pilot needs high perception for initiative. So the two chars have a good overlap. Captain should have a high knowledge for systems, routes, and values. Pilots need a high mechanical for piloting skills. A divergence that if the char is separated into two chars then they could be more effective the trying to have one char do both jobs.

Okay, going to play a Givin.

Would play either the pilot or a ships mechanic.

10) You get 10D in equipment. For example, a 4D blaster pistol, a +1D vibroknife, +1D suit of armor and a +1D starship repair toolkit totals to 7D. You have 3D left to play with. Maybe you'd like a nice 3D holdout blaster? Or you can take it in credits, 1D = 1000credits

10a) If you forgo all your equipment dice you can have a stock YT-1300 or the Ghtrok freighter free and clear. Of course, you'll have no credits or equipment.


How about non dice equipment. Datapad, comm link, ectra.

Datapad and 50k comlink are free. Anything beyond that, like special datapad, or 200km comlinks will have a associated cost to be assessed on a case by case level.

Negatives add in as well. Armor that's 2D resistance and -1D Dex is a net cost of 1D.

I went to this system because the list prices have a great deal of variance.

Makes a lot more sense the some attempts to fix prices I have seen.
