Eric Trautman, one of the designers and editors for the old WEG Star Wars, wrote up a D6-style sourcebook for Rogue One.

So, my LGS have recently brought some Imperial assault carriers. I really like them, but are they good table-wise?
>>
>>51646002
Are there stats? Please tell me there are stats.
>>
>>51646245

Having had a quick peek, there are stats for the various protagonists. He's also gone so far as to produce two PDFs; one in 'mint' condition, the other weathered and aged slightly, which looks pretty much like all the WEG books I've seen in reality.

X-wing or Armada?

Armada: great filler, slightly less efficient than transports but then you get guns on them. Great for pushing squadrons or using repair crews behind an ISD to keep it alive. The Imperial cheap activation ship. You should probably buy at least two.

I think you mean X-wing though.

Probably the second best epic ship, behind the transport, again. But again, you actually get weapons on it. Also the ability to carry four ships past the initial joust in an epic game is a huge boon, to then push them out in the epic movement phase ready to fire. The cheap way to do this is with four black cracks. The scary way of doing it is with bombers.

Imperials have some fantastic crew to throw in the thing too. My personal favorite is take Tarkin, a Fleet Officer, and Comms booster with Automated Protocols. The ship hands out four focus tokens a turn and can still reinforce the front.

The important thing about building Epic ships though is to not overload them with upgrades. I wouldn't take more than 15-20 points of upgrades on the support ships.

Also it appears I don't have a Gozanti in my art collection. Weird.

>>
>>51646464

Whoa there.

You can't fight in here, this is Star Wars General!

Besides, WEG practically built the Expanded Universe, so anyone who ever plays a Star Wars RPG of any kind owes them a great deal.
>>
>>51646464
Can you kill AT-STs with Rancors RAW in FFG?
>>
>>51646569
A person can shoot and kill a TIE fighter with a blaster pistol if I'm not unable to read in FFG
>>
>>51646585
It's possible but unlikely with the scaling in WEG, but in FFG it's near impossible with the scaling, you'd need to do at least 30 damage to even scratch the fucker.
>>
>>51646402
I've meant Armada. Didn't know there are Gozanti in X-Wing. And what about light cruisers? Are they a good buy as well?
>>
>>51646569

RAW, the AT-ST's armour value means that the Rancor cannot harm it.

This is because the Rancor 'weapon' stats are calibrated towards fighting personal scale threats, not vehicles. Personally, I'd give the Rancor Breach 2 on it's claws when attacking vehicles, to simulate it WORKING LIKE A RUDDY CAN OPENER.

>>51646585

Usually, this would not be possible. A TIE has 2 armour, which translates into a Soak value of 20 from personal scale weapons (unless I'm also unable to read). This puts it well out of reach of even the most successful blaster pistol hit.

Epic ships are a thing. They're pretty fun.

I think Light Cruisers, because they're all sold out. Mine are in the mail, because the only place that had any was on the other side of the country. The Imps needed a decent small ship that could shoot at range, and it looks like they got it.

Sadly haven't played much with Wave 5/CC yet. I plan to fix that the next few weeks.
>>
>>51646684

You are correct. This means that an AT-ST's main gun (which deal 5 damage to vehicles) would deal 50 on a direct hit to an individual.

This, in some ways, makes sense, as if that cannon is supposed to mess up a heavily armoured position, it will make a small crater out of a person, assuming it can hit them.

Hardly "ne-canon" when that's how it's been since 1997.
But with Nu-nu-canon, it's showing there ARE Imperial remnants who didn't immediately bow to the Rebels/Nu-Republic and they became the First Order.

If the book makes you so mad, why don't you unbind it and make a high-quality scan and upload it.

>>51649833

So, you get two ranks of Parry, can Parry unarmed, reduce the critical rating on your bare hands twice, can suffer 2 strain to add up to 5 damage on your next brawl check and can suffer a variable number of strain to basically have your pick of a critical result with any Brawl, Melee or Lightsaber weapon. Keeping in mind that this means you can blind people or destroy limbs with your BARE HANDS.

And that's bad?

So I'm about to run a game of Edge of the Empire for a group on Saturday, and I've been puzzling about what ship to give them.

I don't want to go for the YT-1300 because it feels like a cop-out to just give them "not the Millenium Falcon."

Basically, I'm looking for a ship that's functionally identical, but different enough that they won't spot the similarity. None of the players have played before so it it's got the exact same stats it doesn't matter.
>>
>>51650377

Honestly all the signature abilities are usually pretty dope, though some of them don't have direct combat utility.

Like the Soldier one which lets your group just ignore vehicle soak for a few rounds, you can kill fighters or tanks with just rifles.

I think it's safe to skip X at this point.

Ys still have cheap turrets, Bs are great jousters and even As can be decent swarms, but Xs (outside of Biggs and already in the core set) are terrible even in casual games because of how expensive and inflexible they are.
>>
>>51650731
Well, as you said they are in the core set so it's not like you're not going to get at least one.
>>
>>51650695
The problem with that is I'm not sure if any of the players are knowledgeable in Star Wars to really choose one that's not in the books, and there's not much in that price range beyond the YT-1300. Also, I wanted to have the first session be based around stealing the ship, so them designing it doesn't really make sense.

IIRC, Laminate has more hard points, and says it can come with environmental seals or other factors - like how stormtroopers typically have coms and visual elements in the helmet. Padded is just a big cushy safety suit, like a redman suit.

To keep it in context, those are from the 1980 newspaper strip adaptation. Things were super fast and loose in that era, and I don't think the Headhunter's appearance was really set until the 90s.

>>
>>51653675

Those aren't even comparable and you know it. It makes sense to upgrade and overhaul an already existing design like the TIE/fo is than it does to build the fourth-grade doodles that those ships are.

>The greatest sin WEG ever committed.

>>
>>51653675
That's bad, I'll admit, but that headhunter looks like... nothing. It's the most generic spaceship design ever. It could appear in any setting and it would be boring. It's just... a nothing ship. Plato's ideal form of "a doodle"

And it's lazily drawn as well.

Zero fucks were given.

We don't know how restrictive Disney or Abrams were in the design process, but at least there was an attempt. There was clearly /some/ thought put into it.

Doesn't matter, TIEs are sealed and do air now. It was spelled out in the R1 VD most explicitly but Pablo's been saying it for a while now.

they are not, however, resealing, so god forbid you break the outer hull you'll really wish you had a helmet on.

No matter what anyone else tells you, West End Games' Star Wars D6 is superior to any other Star Wars system. It came first, it was the foundation upon which the EU was built, it's still being referenced in canon today, it is more simple and cinematic than any alternative, and it feels like a pulpy space adventure. Tons of people still swear by it, but there are many who are swayed by the flashy graphics and modern stylings of FFG's offerings.

But they're expensive as fuck, and now owned by Asmodee. They've turned and become the Dark Side.

I have brainstormed a couple of things an extremist like Gererra would do.

-The Widower's tears: A suicide tactic used by people who just lost a loved one to the Imperials. They would go to a crowded area and make a speech about the atrocity the empire did to them and have them draw attention. Upon being detained by the authorities they would either personally or remotely detonate explosives with the intention of killing people while making others question the Empire.

-Bribing a crime lord to install a rebel friendly government. Or a cult to train fanatics for the rebels. Make claims about how the Empire denies them the right to practice religion and form a Space Isis

Also, (c) if they didn't forget everything about the Sith Emperor to turn him into Valkorion. He was released by Revan, wanted to wipe all life from the galaxy, consumed Ziost... it was all building up to something!

Guy posting stuff from No Disintegrations has a Ranged (Light) flame projector in it. Use that and the wrist mount attachment if you can get a Tinkerer point, otherwise get armor with 2 HP and use the hands-free weapon system attachment; I believe both are in Dangerous Covenants.

So, watching a lot of Rebels, I have to hazard a guess about stormtrooper armor. I think it's kind of like military-grade ceramic armor of the present in that it can take a few hits (1.65 for ceramics, I dunno about star wars) and keep the wearer alive, if not completely knocked flat and injured due to the force of the round.

I mean honestly, it could be that Rebels is a kids' show, but most of the downed stormies are still moving after they get shot with blasters, mostly like they got the shit kicked out of them.

And I mean, it kind of makes sense... armor's supposed to stop some bolts and it dampens explosions, but it doesn't guarantee that the guy is doing okay inside after keeping him alive.

Just late-night wank. Thoughts?
>>
>>51656666
Quads confirm. Also, yeah, that's pretty much how stormtrooper armor is supposed to work. We see plenty of instances in Legends where wearers manage to survive hits that might otherwise have been lethal.

-Kidnap the family of an Imperial officer or sympathizer. Use them as leverage. They rarely survive.

-Poison the wells.

>>51657094
I guess it's supposed to force missions-specific gear choices, or one or two "emblematic" items, rather than the classic murderhobo wall-o-weapons. Couldn't say whether or not it works, but the hard choices can be fun.

Plus, a stable gear selection allows the GM to plan more interesting encounters. If they knows how much damage you can output, and at what ranges, and with what effects, it's easier to balance an encounter or set up unique (but not dickish) situations.

-Hold a village hostage and present a military front in order to get the Imperials to turbolase them from orbit. Film the results, post it to the holonet.

-Hold public executions of captured stormtroopers. They don't die cleanly.

-Burn the crops of farmers who are forced to feed the Imperials. Destroy their speeders and droids.

-Engage Imperial supply convoys only in heavily populated areas, using the locals for cover. Blame resulting casualties on the Empire.

-Have one of your team pose as a holojournalist and surreptitiously detonate the initiating charges for the ambush. Leak his "innocent" death at the hands of the Imperials to the holonet.

-Kill stormtroopers who are off-duty in the cantina by destroying the entire cantina.

Might I suggest instead of the Z95 a TIE with Rex, Stealth Device, the title and a scavenger crane? Or Ahsoka with a Recon Specialist? With those two you wouldn't lose out on the free action if you don't have a shot and with Rex you'd be able to fly him around freely and he'd be much less likely to get shot down than a Z95.

Armada is dying down, it's not so much a problem of money but of space.

It is also even more horrendously imbalanced than most FFG games, lacking a third faction to counter balance builds and many of the best ships are just objectively good rather than meta choices (MC30c and rebel transports are big offenders).

TLDR Armada isn't gonna be seen or as well received in certain FLGS.

>>51657961
Rex with Stealth gives you an agility 4 ship that can place suppressive fire. But what's good about the Scavenger Crane, is that you can (in theory) repair the Stealth Device after taking a hit. Provided of course you don't explode spectacularly in one volley.
>>
>>51657961
With Rex you fly him around pretty much freely taking evade actions and shooting at whoever is lining up a big shot on your ghost so that they have to choose between losing a die to shoot at the ghost or shooting at a 4 green + evade tie and if they shoot for the TIE and hit and you survive you have a chance to get your stealth device back later with the scavenger crane. You lose out on giving the Ghost two actions for Lando + evade but you're reducing the incoming damage by 1 die so it's functionally the same as having an evade.

With Ahsoka and Recon Specialist you'd be doing pretty much the same thing Cracken would be doing except Cracken can only give an action if he's able to shoot while Ahsoka just needs to have taken a focus and if somehow the Ghost isn't in danger but Ahsoka is you can use her ability on herself to get effectively two actions and maybe even barrel roll to arc dodge higher PS pilots.
>>
>>51657936
1) you can't use a free action to do the same action twice in one turn so landi can but an extra evade on the VCX
2) the VCX moves like a potato and most lists will avoid it
3) Most lists are designed to burn down high HP ships anyway

finally that list is nowhere near 99 points

break down the numbers for me. and how the lando combo works is this

How would you do this?
>>
>>51658118
you will only reliably get 2-3 evades on a fat ship with 0 defense dice, that's maybe one volley of soaking power.

TLTs don't cut it in this meta (esp against defenders or palp).

Kanan is pretty low PS and the ship turns like a boat so that front arc isn't gonna be doing much work 4 atk or not.

The Z-95 is known as "the dying-est ship to ever be" and even cracken's PS wont save a ship with literally no repositioning actions.

Anyone with a brain is gonna fuck cracken turn 1 and the strat falls out underneath you completely

Armada is a fun game. If you already have a bro to play with, go for it.

>How do I do ?

One of everything isn't a bad call. Make sure to get another set of dice and a movement tool so you can make a smaller one. Will seriously save on frustration.

Get at least three of the flotillas and two of the small ships. You only need one core, but will want the individual expansions for the ships that come with the core because they have different upgrades. After that buy what you want. Want two ISDs? Go for it. You can make a decent list out of them.

Also probably want at least two of each squadron pack and CC for the extra squadrons. Corellian campaign also comes with campaign rules, which could be a lot of fun to play with your brother, since you'd have an overarching thing going on.

Getting people at FLGS can sometimes be a challenge, but check online at the FFG forums to see if anyone is in the area.

>>51657972
>It is also even more horrendously imbalanced than most FFG games

This is patently, objectively, false. There has never been an errata for Armada the way both X-wing and Imperial Assault have had. At the Regional I went too, literally every ship was used besides one of the generic squadrons.

>(MC30c and rebel transports are big offenders)

Oh look, it's the fucker who complains about MC30s. Who'd of guessed.

Do you seriously have nothing better to do with your time than bitch about Armada literally every time some one asks about it?
>>
>>51658416
that is what I was thinking. I'll try it.
>>
>>51658416
Also drop the push the limit on the shuttle and change to zeb for more points ( you are never gonna undock it anyway).

Take fire control system on the Ghost to synergize the the TLTs and EMP illicit on the TIE to lock ships down and allow a turn to position them in the VCX's firing arc.

5-6 dice per attack, usually 2-3 ships in a single turn.

Sometimes they have stress and ion mechanics attached.

Stricken with grief and anger, he would stop at nothing to find the culprit and in doing so his firm tanked, he lost his home and almost lost his mind. He realized he'd have to play the long game find the culprit. He will not rest until his family's souls are at peace.

He's a skiptracer/marshal with revenge obligation and finish the job motivation. Figured it fit well.
