No Magic stopped being Magic when they removed Banding and Rampage.
You are behind the times.
Excuse me Lord Vador, why have we used decades of labor to develop and build the Death Star?
Our Emporer can ravage planets with force storms and our fleet can leave worlds uninhabitable. We can already virtually destroy planets.
Also wouldn't destroying our own worlds be an economic disaster and breed discontent?
And this is why retconning expanded universe was a good idea.
>>49552917
Because KOTOR came long, long after the original trilogy.
Are you familiar with the Hutt superlaser? He tried to skimp on quality labor.

uh, well there is the Imperial Senate Planet. Im thinking of renaming the Senate the Security Council as well, as it wouldn't be so much a governing body but one dedicated to maintaining the semblance of balance and uniting against external threats.
Thoughts?

>this guy invented a programming language called loliscript to run things in his game
This is what getting shit done looks like.
When they say follow your dreams they probably didn't mean write complex programs for calculating the volume and color of little girl pee, but I guess this is what they get for being vague
Is it you? I hope it's you.
I'm going to be running a Destiny game for my group soon, using a modified version of Fantasy Flight's Star Wars system. It's a bit tricky, so if you've got any ideas for that, lemme know- but that's beside the point.
What I'm here to talk about is how to unfuck the Destiny lore. Because as it stands, shit is thoroughly fucked. There's tons of cool stuff in there, but it's all surrounded by bullshit. I've basically run down what I think the major problems are, and thus what I've tried to solve, or already changed. So you tell me if you think it's shit, or what you'd add, or whatever.
So, the core problem is that in real Destiny there is far too much shooting and far too little actual roleplaying (I.E. using your brain). I believe this stems from two major problems. The first is the fact that everyone in the universe seems to have picked one of two sides in a galaxy-sized war, with little to no room for deviation. The second is that even within those groups, people rarely disagree or conflict, at least to any real degree.
This SEVERELY limits the rad-ass shit you can pull. It means you'll never lie your way into attending a Cabal commitment ceremony in order to steal a precious artifact, or hold a teetering relationship with a Fallen crime lord, or any other number of cool things.
Barring this in mind, these are the changes I've come up with. Not a lot, but better than nothing.

>>49534379
>Guardians can die just like everyone else.
Their armor and light do a lot to keep that from happening, but apart from death saves or standard amounts of tabletop character resurrection, you won't be seeing them respawn. This keeps it more in line with the actual lore, where it was a risky move for Rezyl Azzir to intentionally die so he could ambush a Kell.
>Guardians don't all work directly for the Vanguard.
Most work through a faction representative, either to facilitate their own interests (New Monarchy), or so the Vanguard can avoid any backlash from working with morally questionable individuals, since technically, they're working for, say, Dead Orbit, and not the Vanguard.
>The Vanguard is basically a security council for The City, setting up expeditions and assignments.
There is an elected head for each sect of Guardians (Titans, Warlocks, and Hunters), as well as a representative for The Speaker. If a tie vote is reached on a particular subject, which rarely happens, it's brought before the Cryptarchs.
>The Speaker is not the type of dude who would have casual chats with any Guardian who washed up like in the game.
He's basically the pope / the emperor, so he's going to have security. This is a shady guy- I mean, he's a religious leader in a Bungie product for Christ's sake.
>Guardians aren't necessarily "good".
All Guardian even means is one able to wield The Traveler's light. It doesn't dictate what they do with it. And this could even be a point of contention among the very few extremist who don't trust The Traveler. Although most Guardians do work for The City in some capacity, it's not a fate shared by all. Some places wouldn't even offer shelter to a Guardian, or allow them into their village, seeing them as a burden and potential danger. So while, yes, there are songs sung of great Titans and all that, the job, on some level, at least to the average person, is thankless.
CONT.
>>49534387
>The Last City IS the last city, but it isn't the last town.
There are pockets of civilization across the solar system, or at the very least on Earth. Perhaps some trapped researchers on Venus- that kind of thing too.
>The alien factions present have a bit more gray area.
Meaning, not all Fallen are going to blow your head off on sight. Some think their brothers have shamed themselves- that they somehow upset The Traveler and have thus fallen from it's graces. To this end, they might try and help humanity in some way, or at least remain exiled from their Fallen house. This would usually mean they end up as a gunrunner, beggar, or information broker in a human village. Mostly illicit shit, as very few people like seeing a Fallen alive, much less prospering. However, in very rare cases, one might, for example, find a Fallen that's become a baron of a human town, having lost an arm defending the villagers from attack, but gained their respect.
>No one actually thinks the Fallen or the Hive were ever bless by The Traveler.
They WERE, but nobody, PCs least of all, know that upfront. Perhaps this could lead to a plot point of meeting a Fallen who's able to wield some light, however small, and prove they were once the children of The Traveler too.
>The Hive are a single consciousness apart from royalty.
Most Hive don't even have any conscious thought- they simply follow instructions sent by a higher level of the Hive. It's thought that this is simply how they function as a species, but one might eventually learn of their grotesque relationship with the five* Worm Gods (*four, eventually). Basically, all Hive are infested with the larvae of these Worm Gods, driving them to feed off constant conquest and destruction lest the worm grow unsatisfied and consume them instead. The Hive royalty still have worms within them, but it's more of a threat than an iron hand, as the Worm Gods would prefer to keep intelligent beings running their army destruction.
CONT.
>>49534398
>The Hive are way more like moth people now instead of crusty cicada alien things.
It's got those too, don't get me wrong, but the higher up in Hive 'society' you get, the more flare they have. Crota, for example, would look fabulous as shit with big wings, and large antennae tipped with light hairs. This is of course because the less corrupted by the worms one is, the more they look like their true form.
>The Cabal have a secret off-and-on truce with humanity.
They'll still let their troops slaughter each other, but they won't actively try to fuck each other over whilst they deal with a more important mutual problem- For example, the Fallen using SIVA. Obviously this would cause an uproar if people actually found out about it, even if it's done with their best interests in mind.
>This is a terrible idea, but maybe The Speaker is one of the original humans who created the Exo.
They tried simply making robotic bodies, but the minds of the researchers who tried the transfer had their minds rejected, and subsequently died. So then they gave the Exo the capacity for true though, but that also meant they developed their own personalities. All the researchers, upon 'jacking in', tried to force out these personalities, and failed. Except for The Speaker, who was able to mentally coexist with the Exo personality. And being the complete fucker that he is, he decided to be a total fucking peppet master by acting like (or perhaps even believing) they could speak to The Traveler. And every time people get too pissed about what he's doing, to the point of revolt, he "dies" and simply modifies his voice, and becomes the "new" Speaker.

Why scion and not WoD/CofD? I like Scion, but it is small compared to the other franchises of OP
>>49534811
Because they do WoD and CofD kickstarters all the time for those products too? Or do you mean wanting print runs of books rather than PoD? In which case I think it is just that most of the core books get those but none of the little side ones?

Which of the following Dreadnought weapons would you say is the most Chaos-y?
>Lascannon
>Plasma cannon
>Hurricane Bolter
>Autocannon
Got a conversion job coming up in a while, and those are the weapons I have to choose from unless I want to truly scratchbuild something (Autocannon is just Lascannon with the barrel ends changed, and maybe some ammo drums added)
>>49552544
Hurricane bolter made from absorbed bolters melded together by chaos flesh.
>>49552572
That'd actually be kind of cool. Just put a bunch of greenstuff or something organic looking in between the bolters and paint it up.
