Star Wars Hero Resources

Just wanted to say,

for the latest versions of my Star Wars Hero documents go directly to my web site here

or click on the link in my signature.

We'll have to start calling this the Star Wars Hero Forum

Thanks, I think.

Nevenall's Star Wars Hero has moved to

http://mysite.verizon.net/nevenall/

Plus last night I uploaded my most recent versions.

There is now info about Hyperdrive and Sublight engines in the Starships document.

Weapons and Armor now included info about armor.

And as always there are Force Power tweaks. Most Mind powers now cost no END, Running, swimming, and leaping are combined into one Multipower, and check out Master Level Deflect Blaster Bolts. :thumbup:

Re: Star Wars Hero Resources

Still working on it but here is a Prefab converted from http://rivendell.fortunecity.com/dark/791/blasters.htm

Started out as 1d6(WEG) = 1DC (HS)but once i hit the first sniper rifle and noticed a head shot with a powerful rifle wouldn't instakill an unprotected unaware normal doing some math figured it should all be 1d6(WEG) = 2DC and it all works out prety good on average damage.

Havent gotten to protection yet but 1d6(WEG) armor should equate to 2rpd

Also weg asumes Armor defenses stack with a characters natural defenses. To emulate this I have come up with 2 options.

A) Double defense to 1d6(WEG) = 4rpd

Every point of rpd granted by armor makes up to one point of a characturs PD resistant.

Personally I like option B because Hevily Armored but low PD characters will have lower defenses than an equally armored high PD character as long as Armor is greater than natural PD. It also make PD more useful and valuable in a Seting that has a strong slant to KAs.

Kept all the flavored text and included some of the bonuses and penalties implied in the descriptions. To avoid making weapons compound powers or something more complex.

Weights are not listed in most cases. So they might be serriously off. I Min STR is based of 5+DC/2 though when implied by description, heavier or special functionality weapons I increased Min STR. Some may still be off. 2H weapons usually have a break in Min STR of x.5

Hopefully i will finish the list sometime this month (Aug 08) and will re-upload when done.

Please Comment.

Steamteck, you're my hero!

I'm going to buy Spaceworks on Friday. I'm looking forward to customizing it for my own campaign. It'd work well with Star Wars minis too.

Re: Star Wars Hero Resources

I'm not putting up a resource link and I'm hoping I'm not gonna get yelled at for that but I'm hoping this helps nonetheless:

I'm currently in the touch up period of starting my own SW campaign. We chose reletively low powered high-fantasy like point totals. (130pt characters not including the force VPP) We ended up rather then making up our own new weapons and armors we simply adjusted slightly existing items from the dark champions book as they are well suited for the power level of the campaign. This action helped us actually get that more Pulp like feeling we wanted to get.

Example: Blaster Rifle: 2d6 AF5 with +2 Increased STUN Multiplier with 40 Charges

The orginal base model was a M4. We applied this principal to all firearms to simulate their rather dangerous and painful effects. If one thinks about it from seeing footage from the series how much BODY do you think stormtroopers actually took? What with no blood, no limb removal, etc (although this is in reality a example of the pulp feeling of the setting)...rather then dead a good deal of many victims may end up getting a big dose STUN. Multiply that by hit location multipliers and you have people who aren't getting up for a while. This is of course...all just theory and what we've come to enjoy for our campaign.

Re: Star Wars Hero Resources

They might not have had limbs blown off, but they were still dead. I'm guessing Lucas just didn't want to have a lot of blood and gore in the movies. And Body damage is just an abstract mechanic. You don't have to really do a lot of traumatic damage to a body to kill a person.

BAAMM!!

"See, gone."

Guys dead, yet no limbs were blown off...

Lol good reference but my point is somewhat still there I mean a Stun multiplier isn't too far fetched. I mean yeah it's pretty safe to assume that since they were minions of the highest caliber that they were dead. THey'ed by lucky if one hit kill rules weren't being applied but in some of the Heroic level games we've played that use firearms etc...we've come to notice that just as many people that we actually kill (10 body reduced to a -11 body) we've seen just as many end up with somthing like -1 or -2 Body but they took a crap load of stun (40 in the hole etc...) to the casual observer yeah he's dead. But if he gets medical attention he'll be just fine. I just like to think that the armor they wear actually means somthing is all lol.

Still the point I'm getting to is that the current system with it's write ups for some setting works wonders if modified just slightly. I can't say the same for higher level settings but to each his own.
