Yeah its coming along. Don't have estimated time yet though.

Battlestar, I know it is very late in the game, but I just found 4 more templates that were overlooked. They are from Galaxy Guide 8 - Scouts:

• Corporate Scout
• Prospector
• Scout Droid
• Ex-Imperial Scout
I have heard there is a fifth template in this book, but can not find it. If it is too late to add them, perhaps in a version 2. I am trying review other books for templates today to see if there were any more.

Ok man thanks, I'll hold off posting the file til you get a chance to look through the books. I have GG 8 in pdf so I can just extract the pages from that.

Ok, a search through the various core rules, sourcebooks, and Galaxy guides has found a few more. While this was not an exhaustive search, it was a fairly competent one. I am still reviewing campaig packs and adventure guides in search of character templates I have heard mention of on this forum as well as others (Saber Rakes, Fringers, etc...). Here is what I found that you do not yet have so far (in addition to those already mentioned):
Tales of the Jedi Companion
• Battlemaster
• Beast Master
• Ex-rocket Jumper
• Freedm Warrior
• Mystic
• Shadow
• Healer
While these are set in older times, many of the templates can be used in contemporary campaigns to add flavor. A GM could always tweak them to desireable/appropriate tech levels.

**Edit**
Ok, couldn't find a strait "Fringer" template. I have completed my searches, and, though not exhaustive, they were fairly comprehensive. I have found the following templates I do not believe you have yet added to the compilation:
Players guide to tapani
• bacta merchant
• bacta pirate
• bacta smuggler
• COMPNOR Military Liason
• Corporate Slicer
• Disgraced House Guardsman
• Disguise Artist
• Freeworlds Artist
• Freeworlds Trader
• Herglic Archaelogist
• High Stakes Gambler
• Holo-Vid Gossip Columnist
• House Guard
• House Guard Captain
• House Guard officer
• House Knight
• House Retainer
• House Troubleshooter
• ISB Agent
• JAN Operative
• Locator
• Mining Guild Recruiter
• Mrissti Roving Entertainer
• Mrissti Swindler
• Mrissti Tutor
• Proffessional Thief
• Rebel Conspirator
• Saber Rake
• Security Specialist
• Weapons Instructor
Lords of the Expanse - Box Set
• Saber Rake
• House Troubleshooter
• House Knight
• Mining Guild Recruiter
• JAN Operative
• Rebel Conspirator
• Mrissti Tutor
• Freeworlds Trader
Death in the Undercity
• Mon Calamari Pilot
• Mon Calamari Mediator
• Quarren Deep Hunter
• Mon Calamari Technician
• Quarren Street Hustler
• Quarren Miner
• Quarren Street Hustler
Best of Adventure Journals 1-4
• Privateer Captain
• Pirate
• Outlaw Tech

So, do I at least get a footnote in the credits for assistance? Wink

Yikes didn't realize there were that many... ETA on the book is postponed.

You do get credit for pointing these out Wink

I may have spoken prematurely, i did find 2 more, hidden in Politics of Contraband in very non-templatey form. They are:
• Brash Smuggler (page 2)
• Faithful Co-Pilot (Page 3)

I do honestly believe now that this about does it. The only books/PDFs in my collection I have not checked are the 3 planet guides, the planet's collection, and volumes 1-5 of Classic Adventures (though I did check campaigns). Other than that I checked every book, adventure, boxed set, sourcebook, and supplement. Granted, my checking consisted of scanning the thumbnails in the PDFs for Templatey looking pages, so there is a chance that I may have missed one or two here or there, but all in all I am confident that this list is now complete. I really must get back to work on my campaign and my pet projects too Wink

Thanks I'll get to these now and let you know if I need any pdf's of these as I might only have some in hard copy.

KageRyu I'm in the process of extracting alot of these template now and WOW there are quite a few there.
As always if you find anymore be sure to post back here.

This templates collection is an excellant start Battlestar. With your permission I would like to do some work with it, cleaning, expanding, making it more uniform? I basically wish to extract the templates to images, clean them up, add them all to a uniform 2nd R&E sheet (what do you know, I have a scan of one handy Wink

) and fix the page number to match. Not sure how long it will take, and I wont start until I get your permission.

Well, if you want to be totallly complete, there's some very cool templates in Classic Adventures Volume 4. They have a variety of street types and Swoop Gangers. On page 118, the swoop section starts and has the following templates:

Swoop Gang Leader
Outlaw Swoop Tech
Street Thief
Street Weasel (nice attributes & skills!)
Swoop Brute (a favorite of mine, comes with cool shades, says so on the sheet!)

Hope these help, I can post the pdf in the file sharing group if you don't have it.
