I've run many Star Wars D6 campaigns over the years playing through many time-periods in the Star Wars universe. I've gotten to a point where I'm worried about simply rehashing old adventures I've alr ...

If someone is behind you, can't catch up, and is only firing at you from one direction, then it makes sense to change shield levels.

If fighters are circling around you, then it isn't wise to lower ...

I don't think the rules are designed for a character (or ship) staying still behind cover... cover bonuses also apply to moving targets. It's really pretty simple, there are no complicated die roll ...

I am now a player in your game. I want to trip a guard. Explain how the gambit mechanic works for me to do that. I have said exactly how I would do the rolls in mine.

You are utterly convinced that ...

Actually the book is clear on this one. It does clearly stipulate that a Force Point doubles all ac ...

But I was using a gambit system you say. add three gambits and roll. Hooray! Its fixed without thought or effort. This IS simpler, and you avoid all that pesky plot. (though not sure where the creativ ...

drop with the personal attacks. They are unwarranted.

And uncalled for. Sorry that happened.

Now, you wanted detriment, I think I can bring you detriment.

Tripping-you want to have a gambit system where the GM figures out an increased difficulty so you can roll and see if you trip and say its simpler. I say tripping is sticking your foot in front of som ...

I'm only 12 pages into D6 Space, and I'm already regretting purchasing this. I hoped and assumed it would be a logical progression of Star Wars D6, and provide some good ideas for a new revision of t ...

You know enderandrew i thought i knew the worlds biggest rule lawyer but after reading your posts i think i owe him an appology. You'r post's indicate that you are so pedantic and offensive that i can ...
