TQ: Have you ever used canon characters in your campaigns?

>>97445354
actual previous, and creating this thread seems to have archived it. Maybe the first person to see that the thread is on page 9 or 10 should bake a new thread in the future

>>97507716
I'm trying to decide what unexpected character to use as a Fulcrum agent. Torn between Jar Jar and Padme. Open to other ideas.
>>
>>97507829
>Padme
So, Anakin actually choked one of her body doubles in your timeline?
>>
>>97507843
She faked her death. That's why they spent so much time in Episode 1 and 2 on the body double plots.
>>
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o0bM1q1ojzM

>>97507829
How about one of Padme's surviving body doubles pretending to be Padme?
>>
>>97507716
Was a game I was playing in when the GM had us as a bunch of padawans, rescue an elder Jedi who was hooked up to a machine and being drained of his life force to power a generator growing artificial kyber crystals. We get him back to our ship and our Jedi master can't believe we just rescued Sifo Dias.

Oh wait, there was that one time one of our players seduced an Imperial Colonel and convinced him to lead his (female jedi) character into the Imperial Palace and show him some of the relics Palpatine had stored there. We were on Coruscant to recover one of said relics and didn't expect such a direct approach to work. But he made so great rolls and got himself in. Then he started making rolls to use the Force to probe around for the relic. The GM even gave him an "are you sure you want to do that?" Before he started rolling dice behind the screen. After a few more attempts to find the relic, a lift door opens up and Darth Vader steps out. Needless to say, the player was salty as fuck that he needed to make a new character after that. His old character did show up as an Imperial Inquisitor and we did let him have the killing blow to put her down for good.

Oh and before anyone asks both were games using a heavily house-ruled FFG.
>>
>TQ
I have had Carlist Rieekan and Airen Cracken make cameos during briefings for my Age of Rebellion game. Oh and Darth Vader almost showed up but the PCs managed to get the fuck outta dodge just as his Star Destroyer arrived in system.
>>
>>97507716
> Have you ever used canon characters in your campaigns?
A few times. Really they were little more than walk-on cameos or name drops to remind players that this was the Star Wars galaxy and there was slight overlapping stories. Or to scare the piss out of the players.

One of the more notable times was when the party was at a shadow port, rest of the party had gone to do… quest things, I don’t remember what, but the mechanic (who’s obligation was several outstanding bounties) had stayed behind to work on the ship when IG-88 walked past the ship’s open hanger doors and in clear sight of the PC. IG-88 either didn’t notice or didn’t care, but just carried on, the PC, however, ran and hid in a closet until the rest of the party returned and assured him the “bad droid” was gone.>>97507716
>>
>>97508829
Oh, and that same party managed to leave Naboo just as the Executioner (with Palpatine on board) arrived. Again, only crossed paths for a second, but it was just long enough for the force-sensitive PC to feel like someone just walked over his grave.

She was a child soldier, then a criminal. Her main parental influence was Saw Guerrera.
This is 'blue hair plus nose ring' levels of trauma.

But: In an alternate reality she was a power crazy Imperial nepobaby. Something between Tarkin's adopted granddaughter and a younger sister to Governor Pryce.
>>

>'blue hair plus nose ring' levels of trauma.
Blue hair plus nose ring generally have minimal trauma and have never been a solider or a criminal.

Some girl who fought for the Viet-cong is more parallel.

>>97507716
>Have you ever used canon characters in your campaigns?
My Rebel PCs had a mission where they helped extract "Red 5," who had been shot down in their operational zone. This was a few months after Yavin, and the Correlian pilot PC got to tease Luke about losing his X-wing, while the Mon Cal saboteur advised him not to be so eager to dive into obvious traps.

My Imperial PCs had a brief encounter with Jerec (Legends Canon is still canon!), who recognized one of them is Force sensitive. Eventually they will get to meet various Imperial warlords, including Thrawn.

>>97508801

He then asked that we fade to black and his character loses to Vader anyway, because he has too much respect for the movies for us to win against him

I can honestly see Jar Jar remaining an Imperial loyalist. Ignoring any Darth Jar Jar stuff I doubt Palpatine just left him behind, he'd be a great tool for Palpatine to maintain a more positive image. And I personally don't really think the Gungans would be targetted by the Empire, little point in doing that
>>
>>97509328
Yeah, it was definitely Asmodee. For taking X-Wing, Armada, and Legion away from FFG and dumping them on AMG who was developing Shitterpoint at the time and didn't have the manpower, and clearly no interest in handling three new games.
Now, as much as I loved Armada, I can see how it was lagging in sales and why it made business sense to cut it. But X-Wing? It may have been in a slump at the time but it once was an easy #2 selling miniature game after 40k. It could have used some retooling and it wouldn't be out of the realm of possibility get it back up there again.
At least AMG kept Legion and is using a good hard plastic rather than whatever half-resin soft slop FFG was using.

This is why you need to take away decision making from a bunch of sales and marketing suits who promis the stakeholders ROI by end of quarter, this time it's totally gonna work, please bro, just one more quarter of selling assets, closing down studios and firing staff, and then it'll totally work

You need to have a brand manager who actually knows his shit. If you're making miniature wargames for a billion dollar franchise like SW and can't turn a profit, you're fucking doing it wrong.
Well, Disney shitting the bed with the movies and Covid didn't help, but that's not an excuse for just willfully ending two of the three miniature wargames and putting the RPG on indefinite hold.

Ironically it was GW of all mini wargames publishers who proved that even the niche speialist games can turn a profit, all you have to do is maintain the commuity and sell them minis and rulebooks.
>>
>>97509081
> Saga is a fundamentally broken system
Oh, I played saga once. Yeah it just felt like 3.5 with Star Wars painted on. The system was like a wool sweater, itchy and kinda annoying, but not quite enough to say the system is unplayable or something.

The FFG system was a nicer fit. and in that game, Vader’s stats are a fancy way of saying “you should be running now”

A number of times. Of course, there's the obligatory "OH SHIT, IT'S VADER! WHY AREN'T YOU RUNNING!?!?" one. But one of my favourites is:
>Imperial Troopers campaign
>They get a "Code Black"
>This is the Trooper order that you make no logs of whatever happens until the Code Black is lifted and if you talk to ANYONE even ISB or even Palpatine himself, you have no idea what happened and deny anything. If ISB gets any whiff that you talked about anything under Code Black, then if you're very lucky, they'll only torture you to death to find out who knows about it. Pretty much anyone Moff and above can order one.
>The mission: Go to a spot, pick up 2 guys, take them where they need to go, do what they tell you to. No questions.
>They pick up Senator Garm Bell Iblis of Corellia and a guy called Hoffner.
>They take him to a spot all the way out in the middle of the ass end of no-where.
>They find a derelict old Dreadnought.
>They board the Dreadnought with the pair.
>Marvel at the old Pre-Clone Wars tech and start sweeping the ship.
>No bodies anywhere. Only things they find are cleaning droids still cleaning up.
>They eventually they get to the bridge and find out that this is a part of the Katana Dreadnought Fleet that went missing 10 years before the Clone Wars.
>The computer mentions that a Jedi was aboard. Last log is that the ship was infected with a strange disease that started driving the crew mad. The last log was them making a blind jump, then the rest of the logs are just jibberish, like someone's just smashing their face on the keyboard.
>From the ships internal sensors, the Disease needs a living host to survive in, so with everyone having been dead for over 30 years now, there's no real chance of infection.
>They make their way to the Jedi's room.
>As the door opens, they find out where all the bodies went.
>A Jedi is meditating atop a pile of bones, his body looks desiccated.

>They beat the Mad Jedi.
>Iblis and Hoffner thank the troopers for their assistance, that the Moff will be very grateful of their work.

Another one i did was:
>Rebel Party, shortly before Endor
>Heading to a random job.
>Along the way, they find an Escape Pod in deep space.
>They rescue the pod and out steps a "Respectable Businessman" who calls himself Lando Calrissian.
>Lando says he was ambushed by a bunch of pirates who stole a shipment of Tibana Gas and that if they help him, he'll split whatever they recover from the pirates with them right down the middle (70/30) But they negotiate him to 59/41
>They catch up to the Pirates and board the ship.
>They start shooting pirates, being careful not to ignite the gas.
>They find out that these guys are pirates, yes, but they didn't steal the ship from Lando. He lost it to them in a game of Sabbac, fair and square, but now the only guy left is the pirate captain and the gang decides that the loot is worth it.
>Lando (Reluctantly) Hands over 41% of the Tibana Gas canisters and jumps out of the system.
>They detour to a Rebel Supply Depot to offload the Canisters.
>Turns out that the Mechanic didn't roll well enough to figure if Lando was entirely honest with them, because turns out most of the canisters are empty, or only half full and Lando rigged the monitors and anti-grav-lifters attached to them to make them feel full.
>Next time they hear of him, he's bought an entire Tibana Mining Colony on Bespin.
>I believe the term they used is "Lying, weasly piece of Bantha Poodoo"
>This is the day they will always remember as that time they got swindled by Lando Calrissian.

>>97514496
Yes, it requires effort but is definitely possible if you are determined.
>minis
At least in my area, it is still possible to buy some basic scum/rebel/Empire minis, both from. 1.0 and 2.0. The other four factions are really rough. Still, there is a gorillion STL files to 3d print your ships.
>pilot chits and movement dials.
The best way to make new dials is to buy a conversion kit - there is a gorillion of them available, especially for r*sistance/fo. Then, you print out the specific dial you want from Infinite arenas, and glue it to one of the dials from the conversion kit. The same can be done with the cardboard on the base and pilot/upgrade cards.

The biggest problem are actually the bases/pegs, which is why you probably need at least a few original ships to get started.

So, has anyone here ever used the vigilance skill to give players warnings that they are about to do something stupid? (Since an aspect of the vigilance skill is forethought).

Like say…

> and that’s it

> basically spending credits only to get the best weapons and armor they can, and paid no attention to anything else

Last time i ran a Rebel campaign, their boss was Raddus. They actually got quite close to Raddus over the time that they were helping set up the Rebellion. I also had them specifically listen to the Broadcast from Lothal as sort of a "That it, the declaration of war has been made. No backing out." moment.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lRvsJuaCAk8

One of the players, who never watched Rebels, assumed that the kid in the broadcast had just been brutally executed which is why the broadcast cut off.

When we made it up to Scariff, they were leading an attack to intercept and destroy an Imperial Interdictor that would have cut off the rescue fleet's escape. They made it to the battle just in time to see Vader aboard Devastator jump in and cut Profundity to pieces.

>"Cannock Squadron, this is Raddus, our shields are dead, engines gone, we've no propulsion or weapons to speak of. We'll hold them as long as we can, there's nothing you can do here, follow the fleet to the rendezvous point. May the Force be with you. Raddus out."

They reluctantly comply.

I'd just say they have basic, handheld comlinks. They'd need to buy things like holo-communicators.
A lot of the adventuring gear you can encourage by sending them into a cave where the path dips down and is filled with toxic air (like a natural pocket of CO2) where they'll have to hold their breath or take damage but can easily walk back out of it. Make sure it's clear that they cannot see the end and have no idea if it dips further, goes up, or just drops down a sheer cliff.
They should take the hint.
>not even buying medpacks
But then again, maybe not and they deserve all the bad things that happen.

Palpatine custom designed the Imperial Navy to be mistrustful of each other and lack cohesion. Because, when the Death Star is completed, the only thing that could possibly challenge him would be a well organized navy. So, he makes sure that the only well organized part of the navy is the part directly under his command and stocked with brainwashed loyalists. The rest of the navy is designed to work just well enough to keep fear and order until the Death Star is completed and finished her trials.

I think this is the first time I've heard anyone talk positively about Ahsoka. The general vibe seems to be that the show was 'meh' at best.

So what's the deal with the girl and Skoll? From the trailers and the little I've seen of the show they come across more as Dark Jedi rather than Sith. Which I thought was cool. Not every 'evil' force user needs to be a Sith.

They're at least implicitly canon, since Rakata Prime appears in some post-reboot galaxy maps and I think they've been name-dropped. A lot of old EU history has been brought into Disney canon that way: a mention of the name and some vague allusions, but not really giving any more details so we're just left to assume things probably still went on more or less like in the old EU.

One was the equivalent of 66 except instead of "use in case the Jedi try taking over the Republic" it was for the Chancellor doing the same.

There are loads of planets and systems that move, appear, disappear and reappear.

They obviously do not maintain a 'master map', and the in-universe explanation is that astrogation databases are a complete fucking mess.

>they come across more as Dark Jedi rather than Sith
That's exactly what they are: old-school Dark Jedi. Baylan Skoll survived O66 and the chaos and turmoil afterwards but taking care of himself first. He delivers it best: “Everyone in the order knew Anakin Skywalker. Few would live to see what he became. Surely that must leave a mark.”
>>
>>97519141
Huh, neat. That's the impression that I got.

I noticed the chick has a Padawan braid. Is she another survivor or someone he found along the way?

Either way it's super interesting that he's kept with some of the orders teachings.

Probably why I've always found 'Dark/Fallen Jedi' interesting. They offer a lot of possible character depth.

Even if, like most Sith, it's often boiled down to "I just want more power!".

>>97516049
That's pretty stupid still. Palpatine did plan some collision a la how Hitler did it but definitely not in a way where he expected to rely on the Death Star. He would 100% have total immunity and control to Code Black and other things that could be used against him.
>>97518614
We only really know of a few:
> Order 4: If the Chancellor is incapacitated, GAR command falls to the Vice Chair (Mas Amedda)
>Order 5: If the Chancellor is unfit to lead the GAR, it will fall under control of the mysterious chief of defense staff
>Order 37: In case of a very dangerous and special individual being hunted down with little success, the order authorizes the GAR to arrest and even genocide whole planets in their search for the individual in question
>Order 65: In case that the Chancellor is found to be unfit for office by the Senate or Security Council, he can be arrested by the GAR which will fall under control of a temporary Chancellor until a successor is appointed
>Order 66: In the event that Jedi Officers act against the interests of the Republic, the order allows the GAR to remove them by force
>Order 151: Unofficial post-Imperial order that serves as Order 66 but specifically for Vader
There's also an order somewhere that allows the Republic to base delta zero (that is, orbitally glass planets to ashes) in case of total resistance from Republic rule
Also note that pretty much all of these favored Palpatine. Even if he somehow got kicked out through Order 65, he could use Mas Amedda to push Orders 4 or 5 depending on the situation and then get reelected, since Mas and many of the people in the top of the Republic were zealous Imperialists and on Palpatine's side. And he could use Order 65 on enemy chancellors if he didn't get elected. Let's just say the man had all this stuff planned out for a while.

He found Shin after Order 66 and trained her while he was in hiding during the Dark Times/OT. The show coined the term "Bokken Jedi" to describe these types of Jedi. Trained in the wilderness outside of the Temple. Baylan did not entirely forego the Jedi tradition, as he was a Jedi for most of his life himself, and he obviously had a certain nostalgia for it... but he trained her to be more than a Jedi, much more ruthless, without what he perceived as weaknesses that led to the Order's destruction. Padawan braid seems to be something that he carried over in his teachings.

Out of all the "clone turning onto the jedi" explanations, I like the contigency plans the most. The idea that it was always there, that every jedi general knew and it hid in plain sight because they trusted the mechanisms of the Republic, sleepwalking into their own doom as the emergency of a war forced their hand.
I like it more than the control chip or "the clones always knew" from Battlefront.

The Jedi didn't know about the Contingency Orders, though they didn't need to. They were blinded by their own belief that they were this untouchable entity that they didn't bother really asking questions.
Though even if they did, they wouldn't have found out. The Contingency Orders aren't just normal orders that clones are given, they aren't even plan Bs or Cs or Ds, they're extreme scenarios which only the top dogs can manage.
The chips I agree are fucking lazy and retarded and Filoni sucks ass.
Battlefront II still has the Contingency Orders. You must understand that ONLY that specific portion of the 501st knew that Operation Knightfall was coming, because they were secretly working for Palpatine by stealing holocrons and kyber crystals for the Death Star during battles where the Jedi and other clones had no clue. There are certain sections of clone groups such as the 501st, some RCs and ARCs and other elite special forces from the Special Operations Brigade, and iirc (though not sure) a bunch of Palpatine's own clone divisions which guarded the Deep Core and other top secret locations who all worked for him and him alone.

>That's pretty stupid still. Palpatine did plan some collision a la how Hitler did it but definitely not in a way where he expected to rely on the Death Star. He would 100% have total immunity and control to Code Black and other things that could be used against him.
Palpatine has one major, overriding weakness that any attempt to address on his part he see's as a sign of weakness. To quote RotJ: "Your overconfidence is your weakness"

Ultimately, the net benefit of keeping the military infighting that Code Blacks grant him is worth the minor inconvenience of some Moff getting too uppity. Plus, ultimately, the only person who could really be hurt by stuff like that would be one of his underlings like Vader or Tarkin and keeping a fire lit under those two's asses is of benefit to him as well.

He has too much confidence in his decisions, even if they are bad ones. Which is why he allowed the Rebellion to get to the Shield Generator. He constantly takes calculated risks throughout the entire of canon and, frankly, Endor is the only time they didn't play out for him. He just kept gettinc cockier and cockier until eventually, he was like "Yeah, i'll use myself, my Death Star, my Apprentice and his entire fleet as bait for this trap. Sure, if it all goes wrong, the Empire loses pretty much every cohesive asset it has, YEAH, LIKE THAT'S GONNA HAPPEN!!! HAHAHAHAHA! By the end of this, i'll be sipping mamosa's with my new apprentice over the shattered remains of the rebel fleet and my old apprentice."

And you're saying that this guy with this plan would NEVER take a risk like that?
>>
>>97520457
The Endor shield generator trap was more of a singular thing he did in order to get Luke, which was the whole reason he put himself out in the open.
>He constantly takes calculated risks throughout the entire of canon and, frankly, Endor is the only time they didn't play out for him.
I'd argue the "calculated" almost always comes before the risk. In Episode I, every circumstance ends with Palpatine winning, he just manipulates things so he ends up with the best case scenario by the end of the film. Same with the other prequels. I don't know if such an event that allows moffs to act secretly without impunity would be in his interests.
I just don't see why him not being affected by Code Black would mean the military wouldn't start using it for infighting. It'd just be a backdoor he personally has which nobody else knows about.
>>
>>97520887
The idea behind the code black is "You don't know who ordered it, or who ordered who to order it, so you tell nobody nothing ever. Because if it turns out that Palpy ordered someone to order someone to order someone to order it, he doesn't want anyone knowing that he knows."

Also, thinking about Episode 1, it's a very Total Recall in the whole "I had a plan... It technically worked because the main objectives were achieved. Every single part of the plan that involved HOW we achieved those objectives absolutely went to shit and got fucked at literally every imaginable turn... BUT it TECHNICALLY worked, because we wanted this guy dead and this other guy back in our hands. That guy is dead and that other guy is back in our hands."

>New struggle. Friend flips clones who take the right point.
>I flip Shatterpoint, and the struggle allows me to move B2s to take the right point from the one clone who made it.
>I Shatterpoint Dooku who drags basically the entire centre team to the left, wounding Rex along the way to reposition onto the left point.
>Ashoka tries to chase after Dooku and shove him off but I roll 3+ expertise and her crits turn to fails. Blocks save the rest.
>At this point, I hold most of the points so just get Magnas closer to Dooku.
>Friend flips Shatterpoint and chooses Ashoka to try and shove Dooku again.
>Once again I get 3+ expertise turning her crits to fails and blocks save the rest.
>He concedes.
It was the quickest game I've ever had and we only just got through an Order Deck. Dooku was an absolute roadblock which is unusual as most of the time he gets displaced and then has no way to shimmy back until it's his turn again.

I'm still a bit new but I'll do my best.

>When you play, you have a small team of models, an "order deck" and a pool of "force" currency which can be used to pay for special abilities (like force pushing).
>Each game, you try and capture static points on the board. Wounding other models prevents them from contesting objectives but can be hard, so the main way to score is by displacing them off points with certain attacks or abilities. Or just capture the point by stacking more bodies on it.
>You do not choose who activates, but instead flip a card from your order deck to decide. You can put a card into reserve for a force, and Seps especially can do cheeky stuff with the order deck, but most of the time there's a big bit of luck involved if you draw the right guy at the right time.
>Each deck has a "Shatterpoint" card which allows you to activate anyone, sometimes with a bonus.

That's the basics. As for teams, they're split between:
>Primaries. Usually your heavy hitters that can change how your army plays, such as Dooku letting droids attack back when an important Sep is wounded.
>Secondaries. Wildcards that can be big beaters, support tools or anything in-between. Savage is an example, who basically does nothing but hit big.
>Supports. Mini armies of clones, droids, etc. Typically weak, but they have a couple of bodies to give more board control.

It plays unlike any other tabletop game I've played, thanks to the activation system and models being rarely removed for good, but it's very fun and generally captures the lore of the characters well. Having Grievous scuttle across the board to obliterate Aura Sing, or getting IG-11 to self-destruct were other particular highlights I've had.

This definitely piques my curiosity. It doesn't seem like a very expensive game either, which is a nice change of pace.

For sure. If you have a club or a friend with the dice/tokens then you really just need two boxes. Which if you're savvy with your deals you can pick up for about £40-50.
I got started with the Grievous and Dooku boxes, which was surprisingly competitive right out the gate.

Except they didn't really think there was a Dark Side conspiracy inside the Republic. Dooku tells Obi-Wan to his face how the actual Sith Lord is controlling the Senate and he waves it off as lies to get him to join (which is partially true, but Dooku wasn't lying either). They thought the Sith was external to the Republic, only to realize at the very end how the Republic was always under their control since Naboo

Nah, it's a TIE alright. It's just one clearly made to be !not Avenger because the faggots at Disney are too stuck up to just take existing EU things because they probablya have some retarded rule to never, ever ever do that.

It doesn't look like a design from the OT either. It doesn't look like it's even made by ILM. It's extremely far from actual SW conventions beyond the TIE cockpit window. This goes beyond shunning the EU Avenger, it looks like the fucking Vengabus at times with how fat and ugly it is.

I'm planning to host a starfighter X-wing campaign, and at most I will probably have the party meet Mon Mothma or something. But to make my post more interesting I am in a rebel leaning edge of the Empire campaign and our GM has had us meet a couple of canon Characters, I'm playing a Jedi Padawan survivor turned Smuggler and just recently last week turned Governor/King of a wild space planet, my character is from the Naboo Royal Houses to be more precise I am from House Veruna, so I am related to Ars Veruna so idk if that counts, overall we have met a young Lando Calrissian, we met with Kal Skirata to cure our Clone party member aging, we've fucked over Tarkin, had to run from Vader, shook hands and were awarded medals by Palpatine, we have and still are currently taking missions from Luthen Rael, I hired Boba Fett to capture a slaver, and just recently last session my Character has met with Bail Organa properly kicking off our involvement what will soon to be the Rebel Alliance. P.S on a side our GM likes doing side 1-1 sessions with some of the party members, we have a TIE pilot player in the party and his private sessions are him doing standard TIE pilot stuff, and his character alone has met Terrinald Screed, Soontir Fel and just recently is working with Zsinj.

Eh that's one thing I actually like from them because I prefer storylines revolving around TIEs needing fuel to work, so I tend to headcanon that away (as well as other annoying shit like TIEs not having shields, I like thinking they have shielding but it isn't as strong as the one on X-Wings)
But yeah when you get to them bitching about teratons of power in each turbolaser barbette or such nonsense it just becomes unbearable. Saxton has done a ton of damage to the franchise even though the ICS books are cool

> is it really that bad or its just dnd 3/3.5 fatigue?
Yes

It’s bad at Star Wars but also has a reputation that is probably overwrought because of people who hated how Open 20 homogenized the RPG space. It can play about as well as KOTOR dude which would be entirely acceptable, but most people can’t play it that well because of their preconceptions and even that isn’t as good as the old D6 games.

>>
>>97532674
You are in for a pretty intense and dynamic small scale war game. Welcome to the hobby, anon :))
Btw, once you get enough minis to play at at least 800+ points, I highly recommend moving on to the larger format - it is significantly more fun
>>
>>97534240
There's a larger format?
>>
>>97534150
>How is the WEG game anyway?
West End's version of Star Wars is the real continuation of the franchise post-RotJ. If you want Star Was that actually feels like the OT, it's what you should go with. They have endless sourcebooks and premade adventures if you can find them. Don't overlook the Adventure Journal publications. A lot of the best stuff is in there. Note that you should probably ignore most of their material related to the Prequels. I seem to remember their attempts to make their existing material fit with the direction Lucas decided to go being poor, and I think support for the product was starting to collapse at that point. Some of the stuff in their fluff books may match poorly with post-PT understanding of the Clone Wars, Late-Republic-era Jedi, and how droids work.

In terms of mechanics, they're fairly simple D6 roll-over dice-pool games. They handle vehicle combat reasonably well. Details will depend on which edition you play, though they're largely compatible with each other and you can mostly exchange mechanics and make minor adjustments to stat blocks where needed. First Edition is ultra simple to the point that it's missing things. Second introduced more complexity (maybe too much in some areas - the way scaling works can be confusing). Second/Revised is basically second with some of the complexity walked back. I seem to remember all versions having economics issues in that it's easy for characters to get really rich really fast by looting stuff unless the GM puts a lot of extra cost pressure on them, or just makes it hard for them to use money due to being some sort of outlaws.
>>
>>97529056
>Except they didn't really think there was a Dark Side conspiracy inside the Republic.
They knew there was a conspiracy of some kind since Episode 1 dumbass, the Council even points out that now that they know the Sith are still around, it's obvious the Trade Federation was working for them, which proves the rot goes much deeper and they need to investigate and stay on their toes from now on. They were so spooked they almost didn't accept Anakin as an apprentice if not for Obi-Wan insisting on it. Episode 2 is literally about Obi-Wan investigating a massive conspiracy to assassinate Senators, which leads him to Count Dooku, confirming the Jedi's fears that the Sith are trying to corrupt the Senate and turn the Republic against itself. By Episode 3, the Order is starting to suspect Palpatine himself as being corrupt or somehow involved with the Sith conspiracy despite his spotless record as Chancellor, even if they don't for a second think he's the actual Sith Lord, they already can smell his dirty laundry and are keeping an eye on him because his shit stinks too much to trust at this point. Literally the whole trilogy is about the Jedi becoming aware of the Sith conspiracy and then investigating it for years, and Palpatine throwing them off the trail with distraction after distraction, from Dooku to the entire Clone Wars

[did a bit of writefaggotry]
The storm never really stopped on Belderra’s Reach.

Rain fell in long silver threads from a slate sky, hissing against the transparisteel dome of the outpost like static. Wind combed the salt flats flat as glass. Nothing grew here. Nothing lingered. Which was exactly why Doctor Narese Tal chose it.

The old cloning facility squatted low against the rock like a forgotten blister—half-buried, half-drowned in sand. Its lights glowed soft blue through the storm, a lone heartbeat in the dark Outer Rim.
Inside, everything was warm. Sterile. Orderly. Calm. Extremly Kaminoan.

Narese moved between the lab benches with the unhurried grace of deep water. Tall—taller than any human by far—her long white neck curved elegantly above narrow shoulders. Her skin held that pearlescent Kaminoan sheen, almost luminous beneath the overhead lights. Long fingers, precise and delicate, adjusted a console with surgeon’s care.

Her voice, when she spoke, was low and smooth as rain on glass.
“Your measurements are drifting again,” she said.
Across the room, her apprentice startled.
“Ah, sorry, Doctor Tal!”

Kio nearly dropped the sample tray.

He was human. Young. Slender. All soft edges and nervous energy. His dark hair was tied back messily, goggles too big for his face, sleeves rolled up to reveal ink-stained wrists. His coat swallowed him a little.
He always looked like he’d borrowed someone else’s clothes.
Narese found it endearing.

He fussed with the scanner, tongue peeking out in concentration. “I recalibrated it, I swear. It just...uh... kept wobbling.”
She stepped behind him and he went still immediately.
Her shadow fell over him, long and cool.

>>97542713
“You are overcompensating,” she murmured. “Slow down. Breathe. Science is patience, not panic.”
Her hand guided his, long fingers enclosing his smaller ones, steadying the motion.
The readings smoothed instantly.
“Oh,” he said softly. “Oh. That worked.”
“Of course it did.”

She leaned close enough that he could feel the faint chill of her skin through the fabric of his sleeve.
“You think too loudly,” she added. “It clouds your precision.”
“I.. yeah. I do that a lot.”
“I know.”
There was no criticism in it. Only quiet certainty.
And something fond.

They worked for hours. Cataloguing. Testing. Repairing salvaged equipment. The Empire had burned most Kaminoan research to ash, but Narese had saved what she could. Data crystals. Growth matrices. Medical protocols.

Knowledge deserved to survive.
So did the gentle things.

Kio darted from task to task, quicker now, confidence building. He adjusted the culture bath without prompting. Logged results perfectly. Even corrected an equation she’d intentionally left flawed.

She watched him from across the lab, arms folded behind her back. A small smile touched her lips.
When he finished, he looked over, uncertain.
“…Was that right?”
She approached slowly as he fidgeted.
She stopped in front of him, tall enough that he had to tilt his head back to meet her eyes.
“Exceedingly right,” she said.
His ears went red.
“You anticipated the degradation curve and compensated before it began. That is advanced work.”
“I just kinda guessed...”
“You observed.”

She placed one cool, gentle hand atop his head.
He froze. Then melted.
Her fingers combed through his hair with slow, deliberate strokes.
“Good boy,” she said softly.

The words landed like sunlight.

[CONT IN NEXT POST]
>>
>>97542715
His shoulders dropped. The tension he carried everywhere, like he expected the galaxy to yell at him at any second just dissolved.
“…Thanks, Doc,” he mumbled.

She continued the headpats a moment longer than strictly necessary.
Entirely intentional.

Later, the storm grew louder.

They sat together on the steps near the viewport as teh power flickered on and off, sharing ration tea from mismatched mugs.
Outside: endless rain.
Inside: warmth, humming generators, the quiet burble of life-support tanks.
Kio leaned against her side without thinking. She pretended not to notice.

Then gently adjusted her posture so he could lean more comfortably.

“You could’ve left,” he said quietly. “When the Empire came. You’re… you’re too smart to hide out here with junk like me.”
She tilted her head.
“Junk?”
He shrugged.
“Just some washed-up lab tech. No academy. No fancy training.”

Silence stretched.

Then her long fingers hooked under his chin and lifted his face so he had to meet her eyes.
They were pale and luminous, like moonlight through water.
“Do not insult my apprentice,” she said, voice calm but firm.
“…s-sorry.”
“You are diligent. Curious. Kind. You ask why, not merely how. That is rarer than any credential.”

Her thumb brushed his cheek gently.

“You are precisely where you belong.”
His eyes got suspiciously shiny.
He laughed awkwardly. “You always talk like that?”
“I am Kaminoan. We specialize in dramatic reassurance.”
He snorted.

She allowed herself a small, satisfied smile.

Then another slow, deliberate pat on his head.
“Good boy,” she repeated.
He leaned into her shoulder fully this time. Neither of them moved away.

Outside, the Empire searched the stars for deserted scientists and rebels.

Inside the dome, among humming machines and rainlight, a quiet little world persisted.
Safe. Warm. And gently, stubbornly alive.

Cool cope. Too bad it contradicts what Lucas said, that he was interested in telling more stories with his characters and that it was his passion project. And Lucas was never one to pander to fans.

Classic AK-blaster, they could've added more stuff to it, most normies see a C96 and say "that's Han's weapon."
Stormtrooper blaster is a good baseline on using IRL weapons while still keeping it "Star Wars."

Anyway I wonder how many people indentified the props used in Anakin's saber back in the day.

I'm running an Edge/AoR campaign here and playing with two different alternate history set ups. I'm interested to hear which one seems more interesting to play in.

Scenario 1: Post Endor. The Emperor has survived. Vader, Luke, and the second Death Star have not. The vast majority of the Rebel Fleet have been destroyed. Many rebel heroes are dead/missing. For how closely it was that his life was taken, Palpatine has now decided that superweapons are not the best method to rule by fear. Instead, he will accelerate the machines of control, of force. He will tighten his grip on the freedom of all galactic people. He will have the kind of control that will preclude a rebellion from happening in the first place. Theme: overwhelming oppression, desperation, fighting against tyranny, trying to find hope out of despair

Scenario 2: Post Endor. Palpatine is dead. Unfortunately, so to are Luke, Vader, Leia, and most of the Rebel alliance. While they succeeded in destroying the Death Star, much of the Rebel leadership has been lost in the battle. The Empire has now balkanized into warring factions, Moffs, Warlords, and sector authorities. Many of these are vying for ultimate control. The leading powers are directly from the Imperial Ruling Council who still hold firm to the ISB and maintain control of Galactic Center (Coruscant). Warlords consolidating their power to key systems have allowed for vacuums in imperial law enforcement and both piracy as well as more organized crime now runs rampant in the outer and mid rim sectors. Rumors are that there is a particularly talented Imperial commander who seeks to re-unite the Empire. Will they serve as a more benevolent autocrat? Will re-establishing the Empire bring order to the galaxy? Or will it rob it of newfound freedom.Theme: wild west, uncertain futures, much more crime heavy

Smoothestbrain take. Andor is telling a Le Carre style story within Star Wars. Just because it doesn't have lightsaber faggotry and flashing lights every two fucking seconds for you literal children to clap your hands to like retarded seals doesn't make it "not Star Wars." It's Star Wars for adults. Which means clearly it's not meant for you.
>>
>>97553549
This.
Also, Andor was more Star Wars than Acolyte, Kenobi and BoBF together.

The latter three shows just died in the writing room, and then Disney sprinkled memberberries and lightsaber faggotry over the cropses.
Kenobi and BoBF are actually tragic losses for the franchise. They can never use these characters again, they just burned thme for nothing.

star wars has alwys been criminally underutilised. even in my beloved OT, from star wars, to jedi, we ha e almost No warring in the stars.

we have a setting where you could do star wars cheers, star wars space trucking, star wars spy shows 1-50, star wars burn notice , star wars rookie, etc.

instead we get fucking retarded californians writing gay faggotry degeneracy atop boring ass nonsense and yet another faggy lightsabre swinger.

fucks sakes, they could have given us star wars kyle katarn and mara jade shows. but no. we get rey. fucking rey. she doesn't even hold up against tenel ka. let alone mara. fucks sakes, we could have had star wars jedi academy, starring twileki GIRL MC jaden korr. star wars HAS so many strong female characters... and disney patently refuses to fucking use them.

koyi komad keeping rogue squadron flying? arel (sp?) nunb, and so on.

hell rogue and wraith squadrons alone are just dripping with strong women characters.
>>
>>97553756
>strong female characters
I'll tell you a secret: They never gave a fuck. If they wamted strong femlae characters, they would not have had Rey or the black female inquisitor in Kenobi, or whatever the fuck was going on in Acolyte.
Even Hera Syndulla was a better strong female character than those.

All they wanted was to tear down the franchise because it was 'male oriented'.

So, you agree with me then?
Even if we don't include the Clone Wars toys, you do realize speculators exist, right? Every Star Wars toy sells out because collectors want the next Mint Condition Boba Fett worth ten million dollars in their collection. Ironically, those OT toys are only so rare and valuable because they we're destroyed by actual children playing with them, so it's not gonna happen again. Same with comic books and all their covers. Toys selling doesn't reflect how much people enjoyed a property, just how much people thought they could make off it.

nta, but is it possible to actually dislike something in your eyes, or is it all just trolling?
Star Wars does have a distinct aesthetic to it, are we capable of having a discussion about what does or doesn't fit it without you immediately leaping in and going 'Ackshually anyone who complains about this is just a hater hater tots and taters. Leave this fandom, leave it be, we only want positivity >:('
Can anyone?
Could the design crew?
If yes, fair enough you're not the kind of radioactive positivity-mandatory faggot that I despise down to the cockles of my heart for shoving your Gamorrean-esq snout into the trough regardless of what they shit into it.
If you feel uncomfortable reading this and are thinking 'Stop being so serious about it, why do you care?' which is the faggot-retreat-point of such people?
Well. Maybe consider yourself and if you belong in this fandom anon, because apparently you could be a fan of fucking anything if it comes with a funko-pop.

And now just to immunize myself against you coming back at me with 'hurr, clearly sametroll'; Rebel Moon also had its own distinct design aesthetic, one that was actually distinct from Star Wars, and Snyder deserves props for that.
You can say what you like about the movies plot, call its style gay, ect, ect, but it did have one.

You know, I don't really have a dog in this fight because I gave up on Disney wars almost a decade ago, but I've noticed that people everywhere don't really argue anymore, they just repeat the same talking points.
For example >>97553656 builds up a strawman by posting a meme of Star Wars Theory. Maybe they're tired of talking the same thing every time so they just put an image for self satisfaction.
This >>97554418 makes a three-step foward chess move by already pre-empting what the responses are, arguing with an opponent in his own head. Again, because these discussions are just on repeat.

Not really pointing fingers at both as I think I get *why* they're doing it, honestly I would do the same if I had the same conversations over and over again; just saying that discussion has reached the point where agreement doesn't ssem possible anymore.

>>97553974
I chewed on that over dinner a few weeks ago, Picture this: it's the old republic times, a jedi knight and their padawan are sent to negotiate over a planet whose government is undergoing a coup. As it's an internal planetary affair, the senate doesn't want to intervene.
The talks go south and the knight is killed, forcing the padawan to try to escape the planet, which is now in a blocade as the government doesn't want the knowledge that they murdered a jedi before they're able to politically maneuver to cover their bases.
The padawan finds allies, uses her master's teachings and gets tempted by the dark side over the course of the series. It ends with them escaping but finding frustration over wherether or not the council is acting correctly.

>>97553974
Normally, I hate Old/High/Whatever Republic Era stuff. If you did a story about young Yoda filling a Luke-esc role helping defeat the original Sith Empire and founding the modern Jedi Order it could work. Now, would this conflict with a lot of establish EU & Disney canon? Yes. Do I care though? No. If you've really gotta, make it Yoda's grandma or something. That's as low as I'm willing to go!

It's infuriating how little standards some people have
These same people probably pog at Baby Yoda and jack off to Ahsoka with how much soi wars they consume
>>
I wish saber colors meant... anything. It would have been better if ONLY Yoda and Luke had green. Jedi having one color, and any variations being rare shows it'd be about ideology, without making it super detailed. That's always why I hate bleeding. I'm glad canon seems to have retconned that at least. If Jedi Survivor is anything to go off of. Dagan didn't seem to do the Bleed Ritual, it just naturally shifted colors to reflect his new mindset.

Saber color meanings are kinda weird as it's never outright pointed out in the movies. George only wanted blue for the good guys and red for the villains. Green was chosen to contrast with the blue sky. Nobody comments on Windu's saber color. Yellow lightsabers don't exist except for Rey's (in the movies of course).
Maybe you could argue that the character react to a sith's red lightsaber, but it's not really pointed out.

It's strange how noticeable it is yet no one comments on colors. Guess it's the same for why no one comments on Anakin's or Luke's dark clothes fashion choice?

That came from the video game wanting D&D classes of Jedi. Wizard verses Fighter Jedi. Temple Guards isn't really an ideology, just a job. What is there about being a temple guard that makes it resonate with yellow? Purple is easy to give a backstory to retroactively, since it being a mix of blue and red is a fine metaphor for mixing Jedi and darkside stuff, but we all know it only exists as a favor to Samuel L. Jackson.

That's because 9 times out of 10, the "issues" that people raise are retarded bullshit that seems like they've decided that they hate the show and can't just say "Yeah, no I didn't really enjoy it. Just wasn't for me." and instead take issue with trivial things.
Like I once saw someone take issue with the fact that there were paths through the wheat on Mina-Rau, because they don't use wheeled vehicles so there apparently shouldn't be any paths in the wheat. It didn't occur to him that the wheat would still be knocked over/damaged and hence leave a path, if speeders where to drive through it regularly. Hell just walking through it regularly would leave a path.
Or another guy who complained about the scene where Mon Mothra accuses her husband of gambling to set up a pursuable explanation for missing money. His issue was that she told him to go to Canto Bright if he wanted to gamble and apparently just mentioning a planet from the ST was enough to make the whole episode crap.

But I've never seen anyone actually disagree when someone, who's being genuine, calmly, points out that the first 3 episodes of season 2 kinda drag on too long. I've never seen anyone disagree or call people retards for saying that Andor should have had more aliens. I have seen people take issue with things that Andor fans then disagree with, but the conversation remains civil, because the person who had the issue didn't just go straight to
>Andor is shit, because of this minor issue. Anyone who likes it is a jew-loving pig fucker who should kill themselves! you fucking cucks!
but instead remained calm and amicable.
>>
>>97555730
And none of that's even going into things like >>97551036 where they go straight on the attack and sprout bullshit like
>It was literally made by people who hate Star Wars and were ashamed of it
>Most of this braindead fanbase will tell you it's a good thing, somehow.
Of course people are going to respond to shit like that with hostility.
Or people like, you. For someone complaining about being strawmanned, you seem to have no issue doing the same
>that Andor is heckin' dark and griddy so you need to shut the fuck up.
Your attacking fans of Andor, who take issue with retarded overtly hostile bullshit and then trying to claim that they're retarded soi-redditors. Of course you're going to get strawmanned in return.

Second feels good. Definitely more open. More room for players to impact the Galaxy, in a way. Fewer shackles of a meta-narrative.

Really, the purpose of having the Rebels "lose" (or at least be enormously set back) and major characters being dead or MIA is to unshackle the Galaxy from the original plot. I'd like to avoid the "where is Luke at this time?" question, for the most part. I know that for other tables they really enjoy the cameos.

>>97553748
I really like this. One of the problems that Palpatine must overcome is the enormous scope of the Galaxy. Leia says "the tighter your grip, the more star systems slip through your fingers". I could see a post-Endor Empire really challenging that with a different angle as opposed to "super weapons". I could see the inverse being to decentralize military power in order to allow it to expand, while maintaining Palpatine as a single autocrat. This would allow expansion of Compnor and ISB into sectors as basically space KGB to enforce more and more draconian imperial rules. Full 1986 style. Make stepping out of line incredibly inconvenient. Make privacy impossible. Make the galaxy into the panopticon.

Yes, it is. But buzzword-laden non-critiques are obvious to spot for their actual intention of rage-bait.

Here's the arguments:
>ugly as shit, bland, washed out, generic, soulless Snyder-like streaming slop
>Homosexual redditors, the lot of you. You deserve disney goyslop. You are goycattle.
>Generic, completely uninspired and utterly soulless. You can't even tell this shit is supposed to be from Star Wars. It was literally made by people who hate Star Wars and were ashamed of it - and you can tell.

There's not a single actual critique aside from "I think people who don't like Star Wars made it, it's generic, and if you like it you're a goyslop consumer". It's very obviously non-serious and deteriorates conversation on this board.
>>
>>97555783
Personally, I resent the application of the term "goyslop" to media at all. In the food context it makes sense, I may enjoy the occasional Big Mac but I concede they're bad for me.

But with movies or TV shows, there is no comparable detrimental side effect. So I prefer movies where the plot falls apart on cursory inspection and you're really just there to watch shit explode for two hours to the stuff the Academy cums over? Who cares?

First, let's just start with the fact that you are using a degree of reflection and effort that the person we are talking about would never care to use. This is comendable and makes for interesting conversation.

There's nothing wrong with disliking Andor. My contention is that the player either doesn't really care (which I think is more likely) and just trying to rage bait. Or, a little better, just has under-baked/half assed criticisms and wants to aggravate people with different opinions. You can make really compelling arguments that Andor is bad Star Wars even in the space of a few sentences. Resorting to buzzword nonsense just tells me there's no coherent critique or effort and can, therefore, be discarded without effort.

I don't even have a problem with calling something "goyslop" but I think you need a little more to it, you know?
>>
>>97555928
>there is no comparable detrimental side effect
I don't use the term but I see it as meaning: "being mentally, socially or morally harmful," (hence slop) with the objective of "undermining people in order to more easily exploit" (hence goy). In a way, it's the 21st century /pol/flavored of the culture industry (someone with more background in philosophy can correct me). Something that is made for fast and rapid consumption without the benefit of the person consuming it. There's no lesson to learn, no ideal to aspire to or deep discussions to be had beyond its surface themes.

But the general application became low effort media that exploit intellectual property in the pop culture as a cash grab or a way to push political points (ie. woke).
Funny how the word slop reached the main internet by shredding its antisemitic origins. Maybe that's why so many come to this site even when they find a lot of its content disagreeable.
>>
>>97555783
I mean I can kinda understand the criticisms. Andor lacks a lot of that Star Wars charm, the way it's filmed and the storylines are wildly different and the far darker plotlines like straight up having rape makes it so many people don't really enjoy it. I like darker Star Wars but Andor isn't my cup of tea, which is sad because I really like having the ISB in focus

Seriously? Leia getting licked in a metal bikini by a giant slug is le kino star wars lucas magic, but an Imp officer attempting to take advantage of a woman he has in his power is somehow le evil horrible ruined muh star magic?

What did people think the Empire was doing? It says in the opening crawl of the very first movie 'the evil GALACTIC EMPIRE'.
They randomly shoot people and blow up fucking planets, and they're repeatedly shown to be a fascist dictatorship with a full-blown secret police plus gulag system and random arrests, torture chambers, and so on.

That's also subjective. I didn't really find any part of Mando that great. Andor's heavy differences makes it difficult to integrate into the rest of the universe. It's like having a Rambo spin-off filmed like a romantic comedy.
>Leia getting licked in a metal bikini by a giant slug is le kino star wars lucas magic
Jabba didn't do anything truly irredeemable to Leia. Had he actually raped her I'd have lost a lot of respect in RotJ and I'm sure Lucas knew that
>somehow le evil horrible ruined muh star magic?
There are some things that don't fit in some stories. Rape has no real place in Star Wars. It's like adding child abuse to Star Trek
>But an attempted rape is 'too much'?
This sounds just like the space wizard argument. "There are space wizards flying about and an army of clones but a ship ramming a bigger one through hyperspace is where you have an issue?" The fact is that Star Wars is simply not the kind of world that this stuff fits in.
>>
>>97556422
It's the things that stick out the worst. It's like that stupid AK prop in Andor.

Except Andor had actually well-writetn characters, a good story arc or three and even showed the antagonists to be people.
Meanwhile, Acolyte had 'characters' that were more like cardboard cutouts, plot holes large enough to rival open pit copper mines in Australia and completely lacked any coherency from scene to scene or episode to episode.
>>
>>97556488
>heavy differences makes it difficult to integrate into the rest of the universe
Yeah well, good luck with the sequels then.

>Jabba didn't do anything truly irredeemable to Leia.
Again, groping and licking while she is chained up is a-ok, but attempted rape is too much? It's like people prefer being outraged to thinking about what the Star Wars universe is about.

>a ship ramming a bigger one through hyperspace
Internal consistency is a thing, that argument was fallacious from the start.

>The fact is that Star Wars is simply not the kind of world that this stuff fits in.

>stupid AK prop in Andor
Where was that, I only saw an awesome AK knockoff in Andor

I'd say have him act less as a senile old man and more as just some dude.
Drop in a few hints, have him pass himself off as a moisture farmer and ex-pilot. If anyone looks close mention the prosthetic.
Less intentional deception and more 'Well I don't like to casually introduce myself as the guy that destroyed the Death Star and revived the Jedi order, it makes it sound like I'm expecting people to suck my dick over it'

Stop pretending, the prop was badly and lazily done.
See
>>97551036
Compared to blasters in the OT and R1, it's just terrible.

That doesn't stop Andor from being the best SW show, but pretending it was all perfect and wunderbar is fucking stupid.

You've basically just described 90% of the blasters from the OT.
The only real issue with the AKdor was the magazine. Had then changed that, no one but gun nerds would have noticed or cared.

I challenge anyone to show that slop to somebody who doesn't know what it is and have them actually guess it's supposed to be Star Wars. It just looks like some generic syfy/netflix resistance versus alien invasion show.

It's a bad prop. This is han's blaster for example, it's straight up a Mauser C96, but they added a cone to the muzzle, which obscured the sights (a lot of weapons in SW don't have obscured their iron sights) added optics to the top and covered a lot of the body with greeble. The magazine well was decorated so to be part of the body.
Compare to Andor's AK, they've given it a different magazine (which is still curved, very AK-like) anda small bit of metal at the weapon's butt.

If you can look at both and say that they are the same, I really don't know what to say. Even if you think it fits (which I understand it's subjective, but I'll tell you it doesn't) it's objectively a lazy prop, the fact that so many, who were not gun nerds, could identify it as an AK shows that they've failed with that prop.

(a lot of weapons in SW have obscured their iron sights)*
Another bit of it being a lazy prop is the B3-K2 rifle from SWTOR, they've applied exactly the same bits of kit from Han's blasters to an AK, plus some glowing bits. I still think that it looks too AK-like, but there was more of an attempt.
