Hello everyone, and welcome to Chapter 1 of the Star Wars adventure "Storm Front."

The Cast: (In no particular order...)
Silas Drexan by RandomLunatic
Jarik 'Crash' Corrino by Noedig
Darren Korr by Thundercracker
Omearen Kaballa by Doc_Pippin
Taconite Tora by WrathOfLife

I'll be using the colours DarkGreen, Olive, and YellowGreen for NPC text.

Venture forth and claim your colours! The IC will be up soon.

I shall have...



Blue, of the navy variety.

EDIT: Anyway. Tossing together the sheet for my minion. Are we using Starship Maneuvers, or not?



And since we have a large number of people, I'm adding some quarters to the Fool, if that's alright.


EDIT 2: Here's the ship's build, for future reference.


Spoiler



And my sidekick's sheet (He'll use lesser Blue, or whatever you want to use, Iron.)

I feel like we're the cast of a Dirty Dozen movie from what I've seen of everyone's backgrounds. We are a bunch of hardasses, killers and louts. We're awesome.

Not sure if this was seen. Just quoting it.

I'll post something in IC a bit after I wake up- Finals week is annoying.

Dude... ace your finals. It's not worth compromising that to keep us from waiting a day or two.

Sure, the modifications sounds fine. Good luck on your finals.

@WrathOfLife
I'll give you the results of your Knowledge Tactics check tomorrow morning. (Im going to sleep now) Nice first roll of the game, by the way! You don't have any detailed information about his yacht, are you asking about large pleasure-ships in general?

I figured the hutt would be a complete fool to give out detailed information in regards to his yacht, so large pleasure ships in general. E.g. cons/pro's of ships compared to spacecraft simply ducking in and nuking it, boarding teams, verse forcing a surrender. Common defensive mechanics that might be in play for the Hutt, ejection seats, a mini sub, etc?

Y'know, that actually opens a good point. Is this yacht a spaceship or a wet-naval craft?

Hmm, fair point. I assumed when it said docked for refueling that it was a world craft of some kind, not a spaceship.

It's a space-yacht. Sorry for the information dump. TMK, you don't have to make a full sheet for him but would you mind posting a statblock of Crev Kallos in your "Additional Information." Starship Maneuvers are completely fine. I know you're busy right now, so it can wait.

So, updated my first post in the thread with my ship's build and a link to my sidekick's sheet. Which is missing a tiny amount of stuff.

Not really.

@RandomLunatic.
Thanks for finding that, you've been very helpful with questions.

@Doc_Pippin
You can swap out your repeater if you have the credits, or re-fluff it as you want. For kama, it can just be assumed to be part of your armour. (or a utility belt)

@ Iron Victory
I will most definately check this out! Thank you

@ Randomlunatic
Im currently AFB would you just happen to have the differences in stats between the two, (and the cost of the improved energy gear enhancement for x2 then I can use that plus extra enegry source ((Could this be added multiple times???))) On a different note why does the power generator not work is it considered a rifle or exotic or does it specifically note, Just curious as I would like to be sure its worth changing or if I should just fluff it

The Rotary Blaster Cannon from Gal at war, which you appear to be stating says rather plainly in its text "This weapon can also be attached to a power generator for longer use" I'm unsure as to where you saw that it could not be. But the text is rather clear.

It is 5.5k credits, 3d10 damage, A only, military Availability.

Glad to help.

Aside from the special rules attached to it, the Rotary Blaster has the same stats as the Heavy Repeater save for it weighing more (16 kg) and being more expensive (5,500 credits, Military).

Also, it turns out you can use a generator with it for unlimited ammo-I had it confused with the Repeating Carbine.

Actually how would Autofire sweep work with the Rotary Blaster Cannon would it be 4x6 4x8 or still only 4x4. I feel like a lost and confused yet strangely happy noob
