Well, for me the whole Sifo-Dyas thing is still quite a mistery. I thought they would explain it in Ep3, but the thing just got left out. Was it explained in some book or whatever? I think it's ok to extrapolate based on official info, but it'd be quite risky to go on a limb on something this important. If you have enough info, I think it's great to write about Sifo's backstory. I'm not sure there needs to be stats for him, though, considering he died around the time of Ep1....

I have found basic information, Sifo-Dyas's back story is talked about in Labrynth of Evil, the comic star wars visionaries, his lightsaber is General Grievious first, given to him by Dooku. I have the basic story down, I just thought it would be neat to do something a little diffrent, but hey we don't have to use it

Thanks

I think it's ok to add the story if it's based on enough of an official skeleton. It would be very neat. I just wouldn't like to see something completely made up.

I'm pretty stumped as to how to handle Boba. On one hand, he can't have 3D+2 STR, it should be something like 2D+1. On the other, I'm not comfortable with him having less than 18D in attributes (if the Kid template has 18D, the Boba should as well). And then, I don't see how I could raise any of his other attributes to compensate. The only one I might consider raising would be DEX, but then old Boba already has 4D!

Why couldnt you do like a 3D+1 or 3D+2 for dex and maybe 2D+2 for str, if you want me to I have a list of most of the jedi at Geonosis, I could post it. I guess I will work on Saesee Tiin, Plo Koon if that is ok with you.


Thanks

Ok, here's my take on young Boba:

Boba Fett
Type: Young Bounty Hunter
DEXTERITY 4D
Armor weapons 4D+2, blaster 5D, brawling parry 4D+1, dodge 5D, grenade 4D+1, thrown weapons 4D+1, vehicle blasters 5D
KNOWLEDGE 2D+2
Alien species 3D, cultures 3D+1, intimidation 4D, languages 3D+2, planetary systems 4D, survival 5D, willpower 4D+2
MECHANICAL 2D+2
Astrogation 3D, jet pack operation 3D, repulsorlift operation 3D+1, space transports 3D, starship gunnery 4D, starship shields 3D+1
PERCEPTION 3D
Con 4D, investigation 4D+2, search 4D, sneak 5D
STRENGTH 2D+1
Brawling 3D, climbing/jumping 3D, swimming 4D+2
TECHNICAL 2D
Armor repair 3D, computer programming/repair 2D+2, demolition 3D, security 2D+1, space transports repair 3D
Force Points: 1
Dark Side Points: 1
Character Points: 7
Move: 8
Equipment: Blaster pistol (4D)


Go ahead and convert some more Jedi. I don't think we need more Jedi than what's on my list on the previous page. That list already covers all the Jedi of some significance.

Now that's what I am talking about, did you make that or just stumble across it. That looks awesome.

Thanks

That does look awesome! Please tell if you found it or made it.

But isn't the sourcebook in question going to be Revenge of the Sith?

Either way, it's all good! The stats are awesome.

Actually when I first posted it was Revenge of the Sith, but as we discussed it we decided to do episode II first then episode III.

Thanks

Oh, I did make it myself, thank you very much. I think it would be awesome if we could follow the movie Galaxy Guides format very closely, which I think is pretty much the easiest way to go around it. It'll basically be a collection of characters bios and stats, with some section dedicated to specific planets or battles. To spice it up, it would be great to have some of those little snippets of extra fluff thrown in in a boxed text. Perhaps the Sifo-Dyas thing could be handled that way. I think I'd prefer it if we followed more the GG model than the Thrawn Trilogy model, and as it turns out, that way we'll have the items scattered around the chapeters as Cody originally intended.

I assigned the number 15 to this book because there already is a fan-made GG14-The Dark Side. I've never found the fan-made GG13, but in any case we can assume it was Ep1 (and hey, maybe we could even do that in the future...)

And just for a tease:
