It's meant to be a tool of fear and power that immediately destroys a peaceful planet, which is why when it's revealed to the greater galaxy that it garners so much sympathy for the Rebellion. There's no real sugar-coating it.

At best, you could probably go the "Palpatine is not dead" route and make it seem like it's Rebel propaganda in some way, but that'd be difficult for even the Empire to do since an entire planet was destroyed and Rebels obviously don't have the power/resources to take out planets and blame the Empire.

Everyone knew about it, that was the point. That's why they blew up Alderaan. The Death Star was a terror weapon and that doesn't really work if you hide it from people.

Does anyone ever explain how slavery remained viable in a technologically advanced interstellar society where droids can do any labor for nothing by maintenance costs and without any of the hassle? It's not like Dune or 40k where robot rebellion has made them taboo or something. Droids are everywhere, and for some reason slavery isn't obsolete yet.

I guess you'd want droids for the insanely hazardous stuff that people/aliens couldn't possibly survive in- high radiation, zero-gee and toxic atmospheres.
But intelligent beings do have their advantages, they don't nearly need as much supervision as a droid does to do their work and can do a fair few of the more delicate and finesse tasks like husking precious seed pods, filleting meat, massages and all those kinds of things.

Plus, they might just be for all intents and purposes- cheap.
Roll up on a civilisation, blasters set to stun and fill the holds with unfortunates. Fly back to wherever and sell them.
Course the upkeep in terms of food, housing and the like 'might' be more expensive, but on low-tech planets where a droid technician could be a rare skillset, parts aren't available, oil-baths and diagnostic gear just isn't readily available, I guess slavery makes sense and still gets shit done.

Well, remember that slavery has been illegal in the Republic since forever, and even the Sith didn't utilize it for their entire history. In KOTOR, slaves of the Sith seem more like the quaint pastime of noble douchebags rather than an institutionalized thing. The only long-term slavery we see for most of the series' history are women enslaved because of RotJ Leia setting such a sexy trend, and the Hutts enslaving people for any and all reasons because, let's face it, the Hutts are slithering assholes.

Other than that, I know they tried to shoehorn a droid rebellion into the setting's ancient past, but obviously it didn't affect much since Star Wars droids have not only been commonplace for thousands of years, but they're also some of the most human and emotional robots in any science fiction as long as they go without memory wipes.

So, I think the prevalence of slavery in Star Wars is the same as it is in real life. It's illegal in most of the Galaxy and very much frowned upon, but there will always be a market for selling sapient women into brass bikinis.

They blend well. Some rules override others, like for example lightsabers in EotE are stated absurdly well where as they toned that down a bit when officially making a skill to actually wield the damn thing. I think F&D characters might get more to them in terms of powers, and a lightsaber is a devastating weapon even with the retcon nerf to them, but thematically the games all work well together.

Each player got to make their own Sith Lord to challenge our party down the line, and also to occasionally switch over to and play against, since all the Sith at the time are competing with each other even more than they're fighting the Jedi. Mine, known to most of the Galaxy as "The Sarlaac" is a powerful Hutt secretly controlling most of the Cartel behind every other Hutt's back while positioning himself against the other Sith and the vestigial Republic and trying to find a good replacement for his apprentice (we killed both of his so far, and he's possibly trying to tempt our PCs into trying to join him). Most of the galaxy thinks of him as little more than a powerful crime lord and he's the only Sith Lord we haven't physically encountered yet as his space station is impossible to find (we tricked our DM into revealing it's orbiting Sleyheron, but our PCs haven't figured it out yet).

All around, he hasn't been the most antagonistic villain for us so far, and the other Sith Lords have actually tried to kill us, but my DM's playing him just as I intended, as an extremely patient and far-seeing schemer with a mastery over a vast network of droid soldiers. And organic soldiers. He's also by far the oldest Sith Lord in our game so far.

Yes. So force powers are hard to explain but you roll a force die based on your force rating to use a power. There's an equal amount of black and white pips, but white get some pips clumped together in packs of 2. Basically what I'm saying is you're more likely to roll black than white. If you get a black side you can treat that as ammo for your force power if you're desperate, but it's considered tapping into the dark side.

Since the PCs decided to back up the Sith Empire during the Old Republic era, the Republic.

Currently they're committing war crimes on Korriban, 1 PC shot a kid in the head and then raped a twi lek. He then defended it saying he's a Trandoshan merc so he should be allowed plus it's a battlefield so he's allowed to do it saying that no one could recognize him underneath his armor.

Then his friend shot the kid's mom in the head to end her pain and let a Sith Soldier choke and rape to death the twi lek that the Trandohsan had earlier.

All the while the Mandolorian just looked at them like what the fuck, and then made a mental note to leave them for dead if they're caught.

Out of all of them, the Mando has the highest sense of morality.

Meanwhile, the Republic is mobilizing their newest weapon to fight the Sith.

Each time you try to use a Force power, you roll Force dice equal to your Force rating. Usually you need at least one Light Side pip to show up, but you can use a Dark Side pip if you gain 1 Conflict. You also gain Conflict for doing bad stuff, ranging from 1 point for inaction in the face of evil to 10+ points for murder. At the end of each session you lose morality equal to your conflict, but you also gain 1d10 morality. Morality starts at 50, and you only actually fall to the Dark Side when you reach 20. Once you've officially fallen, you can no longer use Light Side pips at all, you still gain Conflict for using the Dark Side, and it fucks up the way the party's Destiny Points work.

It's complicated, but the long and short of it is that you can draw upon the Dark Side now and then without ever actually falling. You can steal and Force choke people and still actually go up in morality if you roll well.

It works well enough. Force ratings prevent Jedi fuckery at the start, the the revised lightsaber rules aren't game breaking.

I'd personally advise picking only one background quality (Obligation, Duty, Morality) and just stick with that for the game. Makes running it a lot easier.

If you half-arse it as most Niman users do because you're more interested in dilomacy/scholarship etc. then quite high. If you actually put effort in or even master it though, it's just as good if not better than any other single style. Good breadth of techniques, exotic styles like double-bladed sabers, dual wielding, a lot of focus on integrating force powers into your attacks etc.

If you're asking about crunch-wise though, I wouldn't know as I've not played a jedi in Saga/WEG, nor gotten around to playing FaD yet.

Keep them as having been that weird 3rd player in the jedi-sith wars, but make them culturally stagnant. Like, everyone else moved on, but the mandalorians are just this world full of hard core traditionalists that are just waiting on the edges of their seats for a proper war between the jedi and sith to fuck right up. Meanwhile, certain families or individuals who get tired of training for a war tehy think won't happen, leave to make use of all that training they got (bounty hunters). THese are regarded poorly by their more faithful kin.

TL;DR I want my mandalorians to WORSHIP the concept of getting to fight a pair of rival cultures they have pretty well outlived.

Honestly, I'm okay with a lot of the concepts behind the Protectors/Traviss-style mandos, if you remove how much masturbating Traviss did about them.

They have an ancient culture of war and conquest. Their armor has (or had) some quality or significance to be known around the galaxy as "mandalorian armor". But to counterpoint Jedi and Sith, they usually have strong family or clan ties. They constantly train for war, but when there is no war to fight for Mandalore, Mandos are okay getting paid to fight with other people. They have a big cultural chip on their shoulder about Sith/Jedi (who they often regard as two sides of the same thing), and love chances to fight either. Because they're a scattered, almost nomadic people, they have to have a culture which reinforces and teaches itself - giving you something resembling Resol'nare, some quick cultural basics you can teach anybody and they're "mandalorian".

The people of Mandalore are proud and strong, warriors of great renown. Joyous in battle, despairing in defeat.
Once they had enough might to best the Republic, and they did so in their gleaming armor that seemed to reflect any blast that struck it. It is said that their warriors could even stand against the mystical powers of the mysterious Jedi Knights, but none who live have seen such a thing.
When not fighting, they farm and experiment with smithing, shipwright-ery, and occasionally with trade. Though they are known to raid more than engage in open exchange.
But that was a long time ago, when the Jedi roamed the galaxy in adventures and committing deeds of great derring do, or turning their great skills to selfish ends. Now the people of Mandalore live much as they always have; they farm, they build ships, and they even trade openly. Though yes, neighbors are still faced with the occasional raiding party.
The way of the warrior is part of Mandalore's glorious past and some still follow it to no shame of their kinsmen. Many of these strike out to find a good fight, others find coin in the hunting of others, and some take up a great cause.

But there are those who ape Mandalore in their ways or their armaments who have not earned them and do not honor them. If they were still as warlike as their ancestors, these peoples might have been run down, but the galaxy has been too peaceful in that of late.
Perhaps they have truly changed, perhaps Mandalore only waits for one more big war to awaken again.

Three not-Sith who fancy themselves the heirs to the Empire, each of whom were personally wronged by Palpatine in the past and each of whom think they can run the Empire better than the others.

What they're actually doing is serving an ancient Dark Side entity who seeks to resurrect herself with a physical form by continuing the cycle of pain and war that powers the dark side, which was weakened by Palpatine's death. Even their deaths benefit her by letting the next in line take over and continue the cycle.

The Jedi in my campaign were fractured and outcasts from the Republic (set a while before the movies) and the padawan trial was basically ripped off from KOTOR. You have to recite the code, though I tried to have the master NPCs trick the students or test their wisdom on it. Then build your own lightsaber, and I wish the Gathering episode of TCW was out back then because I would have ripped that off as well. Instead I kind of rushed through giving them crystals without any trial of the soul within, which in retrospect was extremely fucking boring. And finally they had to face a dark side challenge in a cave, some of which was facing dark side ghosts of themselves and others were fighting corrupted beasts.

The Knight trials were more fun for me to write because I skipped the 5-trial system in canon and went for a rip off of the Quarian Pilgrimage from Mass Effect. A padawan must go on a journey into the galaxy alone while their Master remains in the temple and meditates, guiding them through the Force or at least making sure to keep some track on their students while they're alone. The goal is for the padawan to find something, anything that can help to reconstruct the Order, while helping anyone and everyone in need along their journey, until finally, the Force will guide them to another Jedi temple and their pilgrimage will be complete. Then they get knighted.

And rather than make Hutt a title they make it a species, every one of whom has that exact job, because species and jobs are basically the same thing for aliens in Star Wars

And now that I think of it, everything said about wookies as a whole in A New Hope suggests that they're mostly complete assholes, maiming and killing people for petty reasons, and Chewie is an exception for being a mostly good guy. But because the law of Star Wars demands that every alien species be identical to its most famous member, now all wookies are good guys and that stuff about maiming gets swept under the rug.

Though, we've gotten a couple of evil wookies since and I'd love to see more. Lobacca didn't last long enough after selling the rebellion out to the Trandoshans before Chewie sliced and diced him, and I've still never added that psychopath Hanharr to my party in KOTOR 2 because Mira's my preferred choice and I can't play Dark Side in that game without cringing at the dialogue choices

My players were early NJO Jedi (Jedi Academy Era), so their "trials" weren't formal, but they did undergo them in spirit over the course of adventures, mostly in excavating an old Jedi Temple.

They followed the wook outline; Skill was a set of fairly standard athletic challenges, requiring someone to display multiple physical talents. Courage was fighting a set of training droids armed with Ancient Swords. Flesh was a door which was like the gom jabbar, but with less poison. Insight was the most complex, there was a pool of mirrored water with something important in it - they solved it the second way, by being calm and reciting the Jedi Code, rather than to figure out how to search the pool they couldn't see into.

I brought spirit back in later, when they cracked open a Rakatan vault and found dark side wooj inside and faced mirrors of themselves in a skill challenge like the one in the adventure in the back of FaD.

The problem with quests is not necessarily the concept itself, but the quest player base; if I finally got my shit together and ran Harpoon Quest like I've been meaning to, the first thing they'd do is scour the ship for female crew members, and immediately attempt to waifu the youngest one.

Makes sense, but one inconsistency really bothers me. Is Mandalorian armor supposed to be full self contained and usable in space/poisonous gasses/etc but then there's some Mandos with exposed skin? Is it an inconsistency, something thats variable from one person to another or reflective of their purpose some work as bounty hunters who probably don't need as much protection as mercenaries and soldiers?

Well, in Saga, beskar'gam comes in like, three levels of coverage (one for each armor proficiency level). I can't remember if only the heavy offers full environment seals, but I could see mandos having different levels of armor for different tasks. Scouts an assassins are lightly clad, heavy hitters like the ol' Supercommandos are loaded in the full plates and seals.

I'm sure it's just variable customization. The trick with mando armor, though, is some artists and authors in the EU have tried to depict it was uber-invincible sealed and powered Pess Mehreen armor that can resist even lightsabers, while others depict it as it looks in the movies – metal, leather and cloth, basically just space versions of fantasy adventurer gear plus jetpacks and gadgets.

Well, again, depending on the continuity, beskar can be super-invincible, just wearing it over chest and head is pretty solid.

In Rebels, the armor is tough enough that Sabine takes one in the head and one in the chest from a pistol, and while the impact floors her she's able to walk it off right after. It's a sight better than Laminate, where taking one in the torso at the very least incapacitates you - even if you're not dead.

First things first: DO NOT MAKE THE PC FORCE SENSITIVE
2: going in with a defined character is an infinitely better idea than board chargen, which will produce such snowflakes/sues/edgelords that you would be struck blind by looking at such reckless faggotry
3: do as much as you can to avoid waifus, for they are the bane of quests; I would honestly recommend simply having the protag be happily married; it would be pretty odd for an officer of sufficient rank and age to command a Warship not to be, and it would eliminate waifuposting
4: decide at the start if there's going to be a main plotline or semi-sandbox. for a naval campaign, both are possible
5: ignore write-ins which wouldn't make sense for the PC (this will help immensely when the edgefags come around)
6: keep the area of operations well-defined; if the ship is only authorized to operate in one sector, the chance for the players to get on the train to shit-crazytown is minimized

Shitty diction, present tense narrative, jumps around abruptly in perspective, made half the cast have only a single character trait; "gay".

His foreward is painfully evident of how twippy he is.

When people complained he accused everyone of being just homophobic in continual hissy fits. He ignored gay people complaining of course.

Since a bunch of aftblasted EUfags spammed all Disney Star Wars products with negative reviews he claims that's all there is even though his is the worst reviewed work and the critics shrugged at it.

One main character is gay along with two minor characters with the homosexual tendencies of the latter two being limited to the knowledge that they are married. The other three main characters, the half-dozen villains and a number of secondary characters are either explicitly heterosexual or their sexuality isn't noted.

To borrow a term /co/ likes to use and get triggered over, most of it is "dubious" where nothing has overwritten it but it still isn't canon until it gets a mention in a new material and that outside of what is canon is also unknown.

We know the Zann Consortium and Black Sun both exist for example as both were in Uprising. We know Xizor does as well. We have the YT-2400, and Sabine's story hints as Imperial occupation of Mandalore.

Shadows of the Empire isn't canon, but parts of it are and Disney may very well make it canon again.

Yeah, I'm sure he does, but in the case of the "glass/transparisteel" thing I actually can't blame him. Star Wars EU is filled with asinine terms for things that don't need them and can be easily described with basic terminology. It's a not-so-common common convention of good writing that you avoid bogging down your reader with made-up words that can be easily be replaced with common terms and phrases. "Transparisteel" is a perfect example because like I said it's awkward to say and is totally meaningless beyond being a word some fuck made up so he could pat himself on the back for "solving" one of the thousands of things in Star Wars physics tells us shouldn't exist.

To be fair, the pre-Disney canon is they were an evolution of the Jedi Starfighter design, which had retconned the "response to Interceptor" story from before the prequels anyway.

Plus Ackbar still creates the B-Wing. It just predates the X-Wing now.

Not to mention both are still just prototypes. They could just go into mass production only in respone to later TIEs.

This triggers my autism in a terrible way. The B-wing is such an outlandish and specialised craft, while the X-wing is just a logical progression from the Z-95s and the ARC-170. The rebellion was much more in need of better space superiority fighters than attack crafts in their first 20 years.

It really isn't; it's piss easy, no real depth to the combat, and it takes forever to progress through the story missions because they try to force you to be a certain level/have upgraded gear first.

I think that's what it is. It's some kind of transparent alloy made out of unobtanium or something. It's meant to explain why ships in Star Wars have all those big windows (something that is both unfeasible and extremely dangerous on a real space ship).

While some things in Star Wars definitely do require some kind of jargon or explanation to help give it flavor, I don't think the material starship windows are made of is one of them. Glass or transparisteel, I don't see the point of broaching that subject in a story to begin with unless you're going for some kind of Tom Clancy-style deconstruction of everything. Which doesn't really strike me as being very Star Wars.

We don't know that for sure. The X-wing's origins weren't mentioned in Star Wars movies either, I wouldn't be surprised if we see them in Rebels at some point.

We're getting an earlier variant of the AT-AT too.

Prototyping phases, testing and mass production should still take some time to get everything rolling out.

I find it odd we're going with A-wings as the distinctive Rebel fighter over X-wings, but it's not crazy that we're getting them. Hell, do you know how many different model numbers with very little actual difference there were for the X-wing in Legends?

The AT-TE actually had some advantages over the AT-AT, including not being vulnerable to cables, wider firing arc, and being usable in space. The AT-AT could wade through deeper water and had better armament and armor though.

I agree more firing arcs would be useful, although I think the biggest problem with the AT-AT would be the legs. Not only are they too tall as you mentioned but the way they're also too straight and don't seem to have any flexibility. It makes it easy to trip them like at Hoth and perhaps more importantly it makes them useless on anything but flat terrain- which sort of defeats the point of a walker in the first place.

I'd give the AT-ATs at least some degree of three-dimensional flexibility at the joints -maybe angle them to begin with like the AT-TE - and redesign the 'feet' to better handle uneven terrain. You combine that with the extra guns you mentioned and those things would be fucking terrifying.

The Hutts/Sun/Pikes probably went back to their usual routine of scheming, stealing, killing eachother, and just generally being criminal assholes.
