Conversion - Galaxy of Intrigue

[Gry Sarth]

Since it seems Cheshire is well underway with the Scavenger's Guide to Droids conversion, I've decided not to mix things up right now and instead focus on the Galaxy of Intrigue conversion. Seems like an easy enough book.

[cheshire]

*gasp* Two books at once? That's crazy talk!

I'll be picking this book up soon. I should be able to jump in with the weapons and equipment sooner or later if you want to share the load.

No pressure, I'm just putting it out there.

Well, looks like this thing is finally up and running. So here I go with my contribution in terms of reducing your workload.

Wow. That's really light thus far.

Told you it was an easy book. That's whay I wanted to start tackling it, instead getting mixed up in the work you're doing with Scavenger's.

BTW, thanks for that, Forceally, it's a really nice aid.

I didn't know why it would be light on stats. Now I do. Since the Unknown Regions sourcebook is going to be the last one, I think this is the calm before the big send off. I'm thinking the last sourcebook is going to be big on stats. Maybe on the same scale as the Scavengers' Guide to Droids. I'm hoping for stats for the Vagaari in the last sourcebook.

[cheshire]

I'm guessing that the last one will have lots of new species, lots of new planets, but beyond that I'm not sure what the expect. The Galaxy of Intrigue is more of a GM guide than anything from what I've seen of it briefly. So, I'm not particularly surprised.

BTW, is there a lit of gear and guns that need to be converted in that?

You don't know how extraordinarily grateful I am to you in the formation of these lists. It really speeds my work along, particularly with Scavenger's Guide.

I don't do the gears and guns, but I can try and compose a list for you. I do recall though from the WotC boards that people were complaining about the Xerrol Nightsinger stats in the books. And I seem to recall that you and Gry already have d6 stats for that. Don't know if they're WEG or converted from WotC, though.

[cheshire]

It's no biggie, the guns and gear are much easier to cross reference anyway.

The Xerrol Nightstinger looks like it's pretty much the same as when it appeared in the Arms and Equipment Guide, which had good stats for it. The only slip-up is in the fluff text, where it says it uses a canister of exotic gas instead of a power pack. That's BS, every blaster has both a power pack and a gas canister, the only difference with the Xerrol is that its exotic gas only lasts for 5 shots, so it must be replaced much more often than the power pack, which is the opposite of what happens with normal blasters.

Here's the only new weapon:

Wrist Blaster
Type: Concealed wrist blaster
Scale: Character
Skill: Blaster: wrist blaster
Ammo: 1
Cost: 1,500
Availability: 2, R
Range: 3-5/10/20
Damage: 3D+2
Game Notes: Special alloys mask the wrist blaster from weapon sensors, detecting it with a sensor scan requires a Very Difficult sensors roll.

I'm not too keen on assigning our own model names to these items, though. the problem is that if afterwards some other book contains the same item, now with a proper model name, we will think they are two different items since they have have different model names.
