Force Skills and MAPs & some other rules.

[ZzaphodD]

Was going to answer in the other thread (under official rules) but as this is a house rule I made my own here instead.

These are my house rules when it comes to force skills/powers.

-MAP from using several Force Skills.
For each full 5D in a force skill, one MAP is ignored when using a power related to that force skill. For example, a Jedi with 5D control (or Sense) do not suffer a MAP when activating Lightsaber Combat. This bonus is NOT cumulative for having several force skills at a minimum of 5D. In any case, activating a force power is allways a minium of one action.

-MAP for having Force Power 'Kept Up'.
For each full 5D in a force skill, one MAP is ignored when keeping a force power relating to that force skill 'kept up'. For example, a Jedi with Control 5D suffer no MAP for keeping Control Pain up. This bonus is not cumilative for having several force skills at a minimum of 5D. The only way to ignore two MAP from keeping powers up is to have 10D or more in the associated Force Skill.

These comes from the idea that I think use of the Force should be more intuitive when the Jedi gets more powerful in the Force.

-Lightsaber Combat
Lowers the difficulty for the Lightsaber to Easy.
Adds Sense/2 to the Jedis Lightsaber skill.
Adds Control/2 to the Jedis Lightsaber damage.
