To make this more Star War character-oriented, maybe you could post what all stats or concept ideas you have for "Star Wars Rambo" so far. We can make this thread more than just the DSP question.

I can most certainly try, maybe even with reasoning as to why some can be selected. I will mostly base them on what we see not so much to reflect actual army special forces training, however he is an officer at least of 2nd LT an up as it is an officer's uniform we see in the little clips from rambo

it is not this thread though, but it could be fun to see what we all cna come with for star wars versions of other franchise heroes.

Lets look to Alien, and Lt. Ellen Ripley
Or maybe assassin's cree enzo, or maybe solid snake, even jason bourne

And on the topic of the latter, a jason bourne i stat wars would to me smell a lot like a secret project thing, like it was, all I think we can see in the world without too much adjusting.

John Wick, jack reacher, I can see a ton of guys, not just marvel heroes, but "common" action heroes. Someone even mentioned James Bond when I was inquiring about the rank K-12 for the emperor's hands.

Sure. Go for it. Make a different thread for each character, or group of characters if they come from the same franchise. We've done a bit of this before for certain characters so you may want to search for prior threads before posting a new one.

yeah I was just unsure how high, I put them at 6+ making them very good, though I can't see 8-9 to be any issues either though

I agree with garhkal.

It is my opinion that an entry level spec ops type (like a young Army Ranger or Navy SEAL) should have 6D in primary skills and no less than 4D in secondary/tertiary skills.

Rambo is well beyond "entry level" special ops.

I much prefer the original Rambo in First Blood, where he wasn't the super-human he was made into in the later films. It's important to remember that, in the original film, he was a PTSD'd-out Vietnam vet who was up against small town cops and the local National Guard. The buffoonery level of his opposition in that film is pretty obvious.

I tried to make the first blood 1 rambo star wars way, I too prefer that rambo, maybe also the rambo of the last one as well.

some of his skills could be higher, but I was a ctually considering lowing some due his ptsd and his at least some years drifting

Have been enjoying these, Mamatried!

And now there's the possibility of all the Jason Statham characters (Frank Martin of The Transporter movies, Chev Chelios from Crank, etc) to meet in the SW universe. Surely, there's some rogue clone operation out there, cranking them out (no pun intended).
