[OOC] Star Wars Saga Edition: Storm Commando Raid

[mattmanganon]

@rush99999 Anzat is a planet where most of it is barren dust mixed with densely populated spaceports. So, I'm gonna say:

Language: Anzati
Skill Choices:
*Pilot
*Survival
*Gather Information

[MacabreMoth]

Put me in Alderaan, coach. What am I lookin' at?

[mattmanganon]

@MacabreMoth already one

[Lurking Krog]

@mattmanganon I am going to go with Mandalore as the home planet for my character. Gonna go with the scoundrel class as well.

[mattmanganon]

@Lurking Krog Here's your origin rules

[rush99999]

Just rolled up starting credits. I almost got the maximum amount.

[Varshanka]

first OOC post tells us our cash

[rush99999]

Oh. So it does.

[mattmanganon]

@rush99999 Yes, as pointed, you get very little starting cash, primarily because you get a LOT of starting equipment that is WAY more than you should have.

[Varshanka]

i like presents more than cash from dm's

[MacabreMoth]

But do we get cool space ships

[mattmanganon]

@MacabreMoth Your home base will be on an Imperial Escort Carrier And being that it's a Carrier, yes you'll get some TIE Fighters to start with, with better fighters becoming more available later on. With Lothal's capture by the Rebellion, Defender production has been put back, but someone's going to step into the power vacuum Thrawn left and we'll see what kinds of new projects make their way to production.

[MacabreMoth]

Oh, yeah that reminds me.

What's the over and under on buying personal equipment or tricking out existing Imperial-provided stuff? Will the bureaucrats get mad?

[mattmanganon]

@MacabreMoth You're Imperial Commando's, do whatever you need to in order to get the job done. So long as you succeed, you can pimp your TIE Fighter as much as you like. And yes, you can spend your starting money on Personal equipment, but you cannot sell the provided equipment to buy other items.

[MacabreMoth]

@Lurking Krog This is very much a Multiclassing system. Pureclassing isn't the best, but it's not bad. So, absolutely feel free to multi-class. Hell, one character i theorycrafted had bits from 3 primary classes.

@mattmanganon

@Lurking Krog

I will expand on this a little: in addition to considering base class combos, it's worth looking into Prestige Classes you might want since many of those have both really good talent trees and qualifications that are pretty strict. Some are more forgiving towards class selection than others, depending on how efficiently you want to access them. For example, Elite Trooper really wants you to be either Jedi or Soldier 7 with a few specific feat choices if you want it ASAP, but Ace Pilot is just "have a feat and a skill".

I'd recommend at least considering Elite Trooper, since it has the "Greater Weapon Focus/Specialization/Combat Feat" talents that damage dealers want, or Gunslinger, for trick shots, but there's other stuff you could look at.

[mattmanganon]

@Lurking Krog@MacabreMoth Where are you two on your CS'?

[Lurking Krog]

In progress. Should be able to have it done here in a few.

[mattmanganon]

Well, if you need any help with character creation, just message me and i'll be happy to help anyway i can.

[MacabreMoth]

I'll level with you, boss: I was hoping accepted sheets got posted so I could scope out which of the support builds I liked better lmao. But anyway, yeah, I can get it to you shortly after handling groceries and other housekeeping stuff.

BTW if I wanted to take Crime Lord for some talents, would I have to arrange for a means ICly to actually become a lord of a criminal enterprise before taking levels or is qualifying based on skill and talents sufficient?
