I suppose the alternative is to merely have a player increase the base skill or attribute of whatever it is they're trying to do. I'm defintely not a fan of "if it's not in a sourcebook, you can ...

I am not questioning the existence of attention span issues (I work in education), I'm questioning how new interpretations of SW and the Force are related. Your argument essentially is:

Yet another reason why the "New" Star Wars material is over powered and shinier, brighter, faster etc. Even though most of the stories take place before the original trilogy!!!
This is sli ...

First, I appreciate all the feedback. This is something I'm still tossing around and have yet to implement. As for the Feats... No beginning character is going to be able to pull them off. It takes ...

I played a Jedi regularly for 2 years and I think I netted 5 FPs total in that time. In a campaign where the judge has any sensibilities, the 10 FPs for one Unleashed feat would essentially be a once ...

First, I'd say that I do not see haggling so much as I see veteran D6ers bouncing ideas off of each other to adapt new mechanics into the old system. I'd rather collaborate in this manner with other ...

The Force Unleashed doesn't really fit into the CANON Star Wars universe, at least in my opinion. I know its cannon, but come on so is the Christmas Special. The Force Powers are way over the top. Sta ...

I guess you could do that, if you really wanted to, but I think that could be really broken. I mean, you could still fail that roll, but that makes it real easy. I think lowering the difficulty for ne ...

Well, sort of. I dislike the d20 rules quite a great deal. That being said, I used to play the old Marvel Superheroes RPG where you could mak ...

Deflecting? Sure, but not deflecting and controlling where the shots go... that's definetly a Force endeavor. It should be Heroic with circumstantial modifiers and should only be used at dramaticall ...

I just had a wacky idea. I like the idea of converting Force Points into Unleashed Points, though, building up 10 FPs could take a while. So what if when you use an Unleashed Point, you double your r ...

I played a "dark" campaign once and it was rather fun. None of us were allowed to be Jedi or Sith and we operated within the criminal underwold, but even the Mafia has a strict and well und ...

Just remember, Space and Vehicle combat are the great equilizers of the d6 Universe. Most non-Jedi dump CPs into Dodge and Blaster, while there's the rare Smuggler/Pilot who actually puts something i ...

My best advice is don't try to stop it. If one (or especially both) want to screw their fellow characters, let it happen. Make suggestions. However, make sure the players are mature enough to not t ...

I'm running a campaign with a 10 year old Padawan whose total cummulative Force Power dice are at 3D. To get a flavor for how the game works, I had him fight in hypethetical combat against a single, ...
