Rerun941 12 Posted February 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 I've got the "Opening Crawl" posted. Please don't post into the IC thread until everyone has their character sheet up and I finish with the rest of the intro. I have to set up a photobucket account to host pictures, so bear with me. Thanks for your patience. Link to post Share on other sites

Rerun941 12 Posted February 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 For dice rolling, I recommend the one over at rancorpit.com http://www.rancorpit.com/diceRoller.html I trust you all to honestly report your dice rolls (good or bad). It's best to highlight or list your Wild Die roll first, for clarity. Link to post Share on other sites
janus methedor 10 Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 To confirm the Wild Die rules you are using are: 6= added re-role of Wild Die 1= Deducted re-role of Wild Die Link to post Share on other sites

Re-roll and add. If you roll a 1, roll the Wild Die again: 1 = subtract the 1 and the highest die. 2-5 = no special failure, add the dice normally 6 = complication, add dice normally, but something ELSE might happen Link to post Share on other sites

janus methedor 10 Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 There is time between the announcement by the Capt. and the Customs right? So there would still be time for conversation? (heh... should of asked earlier before I posted, I'll remember timing questions for next time) Link to post Share on other sites

You're free to converse with each other, or head to the cockpit to speak with the Captain in person. There's plenty of time. Link to post Share on other sites

Lee Torres 10 Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 Would Persuasion work, instead of Con? Rashk is one of those sincere types that convinces people of things even if they're untrue and he knows it. Bothan, you know... Link to post Share on other sites
Rerun941 12 Posted February 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 Would Persuasion work, instead of Con? Rashk is one of those sincere types that convinces people of things even if they're untrue and he knows it. Bothan, you know... By my read on the Persuasion skill, it's more to get someone to go along with you. To plead your case. In this instance, Rashk is attempting to mask his true reasons for being on Derilyn. While there is an element to truth about what he says, he is still trying to trick/deceive everyone else of his true intentions. If Rashk were trying to get Tosh to come along with him and Rashk is asking for help with his grandfather's last wishes. It would be a Persuasion roll at one difficulty level higher due to the low-level con. At it is, it's a Con, but I'll be lowering the difficulty of the Con for Rashk since he has elements of truth in his statements. (But he's actively attempting to hold back information and not give too much away.) Sound fair? Link to post Share on other sites
Lee Torres 10 Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 No worries on rerolls or retcons - I think Rashk decided to take a chance on Voidstar in any case, agitated or no. To borrow the Rodian's phrasing, sometimes us furballs gotta stick together! Link to post Share on other sites

janus methedor 10 Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 I wanna say that Hide can be used for Camouflage [due to a speciality of the same name], but that's the only way to use the skill to hide one's self. Link to post Share on other sites
Lee Torres 10 Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 (edited) Checked the 2nd Ed. R&E, and the boss is right - "The skill is used when trying to hide weapons on one's person, conceal goods within luggage, plant objects to be left in a room and other similar tasks." So my situation was literally a textbook case! Sneak would be "the character's ability to move silently, hide from view, move in shadows and otherwise creep around without being noticed."

Rerun941 12 Posted February 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 I had to check myself before I answered your question, Lee. Sometimes I have to stop, go back and read the actual rules to remind myself what they are. Too often, us old timers THINK we know a rule or have played it a certain way for so long, that it's a surprise when we go back and read what it actually says. hehehe Link to post Share on other sites
Lee Torres 10 Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 (edited) True, true. Been a while since I've played SW, and then it was running a "Tales of the Jedi" era campaign - not too much hiding and sneaking in that one. Young Jedi at war need not these things! \sw\ Still, it's good to dig into the old books again... Had a copy of D6 Space and the various 'Verse-related books on the table so long I'd been lax in keeping the old flame alight. Edited February 24, 2010 by Lee Torres Link to post Share on other sites

I'm defaulting to the wrong attributes and such, and have to be reminded that we are not playing my version of the rules. In this particular case I've re-married Hide to Sneak so hiding one's self or objects is the same skill (like back in 1E). Checked the 2nd Ed. R&E, and... my situation was literally a textbook case! Only here could I ever see the R&E book being referred to as a textbook. I love this place! OK, great start to a game. Carry on, men. Link to post Share on other sites
