Which NPC collection should I do next?

Guardian_A

With the completion of the Stormtroopers, Imperial Navy, and Imperial Army collections, I'm now on the home stretch of my Imperial NPC collection.

With the Imperial NPC collection approaching completion, I am starting to think about which group I should start working on next. I figured I'd start a little poll to find out what people think.

I feel like most major military organizations are pretty well covered in most books. I personally would enjoy the militia and merc. NPCs as there is minimal info on them and my campaigns interact with them often Smile

Very Interesting, . . . . I had honestly expected people to want the Rebels/New Republic or Grand Army of the Republic. So see so much interest in Mercenaries & Militias comes as something of a surprise!

Does anyone have anything specific in mind? The more I know about what everyone is looking for, the better I can try catering the projects to people's needs.

I'm planning to do the following Militia/Mercenary groupings:
Primitive Militia
Archaic Militia
Untrained militia
Simple Militia
Organized Militia
Mercenary Navy
Mercenary Army
Mercenary Commandos/Specialists

Shameless Plug:
I just posted the following WEG adventure books on ebay (Among a few other items). Go take a look!
Classic Adventures Volume Four
Starfall

Interesting Stats. Is there a particular reason why you gave them Beast Riding and not Ground Vehicle Operation? How have you put them to use in your adventures?

I saved the stats to a doc so I can go over them in detail later.

When I get started, I'll probably be starting with the Militia (All of them) since those would probably be the easiest to assemble. With that said, I should be able to put together all of the Militia groups in an afternoon.

I'm planning to do a set of baseline stats for everyone, avoiding labling any race or gender with the stats. With thousands of races in the Star Wars universe, it just dosnt make sense to do stats for even a fraction of them. On the other hand, if anyone can think of a few particularly common, militaristic races, I would be willing to do stats for a hand full of them. Does anyone want any specific races represented?

The Chiss come to mind, perhaps Gamorreans as well.

Mandorlians, Echani, and Iridonia's come to mind. The last one mainly being from Knights of the Old Republic influence, as while most Zabrak we see are warriors I don't know if they are traditionally known as that in all of EU.

I just noticed that you've finished your rebellion/new republic bits and I was curious what was next on your agenda. Any idea Guard?
