Because debating how/if a thing fits the setting is a huge portion of what we do here, so I don’t see why it is necessary to bemoan the status quo. If you want to believe that a totalitarian, largely uniform Imperial military will tolerate mavericks who deviate from doctrine simply to justify including a largely useless gimmick system with limited tactical and strategic value, that’s certainly your prerogative in your campaign. My point is to highlight the obvious issues and drawbacks. YMMV. _________________ "No set of rules can cover every situation.

At this point it seems clear to me you are personally attacking my posts and responses. _________________ "There's a set way to gain new Force Points and it represents a very nice system, where you're rewarded for heroism, not for being a poor conductor to electricity." ~Jachra |
