 Posted: Tue Jun 21, 2011 11:40 am Post subject: List of Jedi Force Powers |
 |
|
Hello everyone
I was wondering if anyone had a PDF with descriptions of all the force powers for d6. I would like to get a list of all force powers converted from the d20 system too. Can anyone help? |

The link below would be a good place to start. Not only does it have a nice little fanbook that collects the Force powers, but there is also a fanbook for Aliens, Creatures, Droids, Equipment, Starships, Vehicles, Weapons, and an assortment of other resources that you may be interested in. They are the most complete Star Wars D6 resrouces I have ever found.

Hope that helps! |

Note that the document you found there does not contain all of the SAGA edition force powers. Those are listed in separate pdfs, sorted by SAGA book. You can find a link to the SAGA conversions in my sig.

That's a listing of WEG and fan-made powers. |

I had made the D6 power for Phase, and it never made it into the book. I have this as an alternative to what is listed on the Holocron:
| Quote: | Phase
Control Difficulty: Difficult
Alter Difficulty: Very Difficult
Required Powers: Absorb/dissipate energy, concentration, hibernation trance, emptiness (or rage), telekinesis, cloak.
Effect: Phase allows a Jedi to shift his body out of phase so that it does not interact with physical matter for one round. This effectively allows the Jedi to pass through doors, walls, or other solid objects. However, while using phase, the Jedi reduces his movement score by two-thirds. If the Jedi is unable to finish his movement in an unoccupied space, he takes 8D damage for materializing while occupying the same space as another object.
Source: Clone Wars Campaign Guide, page 51 |
If you like it, feel free to use it.

So can anyone here explain how a jedi can walk when he's doing this, instead of falling straight through the crust of the planet, or rocketing off into space at an angle tangential to the rotation/orbit of the planet?

That's always been my issue when people are phasing through one thing or another in Sci-Fi and Fantasy. I was watching Star Trek once when two characters were out of phase, yet they're walking up and down the decks like nothing odd is happening. Yeah, they could fall right out through one of the walls and through the hull of the ship, but apparently floors don't operate on the same principles of physics.
Again, I didn't make up the power, I just converted it. There's a reason why it was laughed at rather than listed in the final book.

Probably the same reason that Yoda could lift an X-Wing with his mind; because that's what the plot called for. Granted, I've never seen the Phase ability used in anything but the comics, but even so, its appearance there makes it official, if not canon. Whether or not you choose to use it is up to you.

Well officially comic at least.  I couldn't resist. But if that was the one comic with the Dark Woman, I liked the character and thought her unique possession and use of the power was interesting. I'd consider letting the player who has a Jedi who is a whiz at Alter discover/learn this skill.
As for how it works, take your pick: (i) rule of cool or (ii) the phasing occurs in combination with a vector. If the vector is positive and mostly horizontal (to move in the direction of and through the door) rather than vertical and negative (to fall through the floor) than the Jedi goes through the door and not through the floor. |

I see the mishap possibilities are endless...

Yeah, the Clone Troopers following Padme's instructions in E.II though she was of no official rank or had any obvious military expertise or authority was also cannon. Doesn't mean it makes any sort of sense.

I do recall mention somewhere (in the ImpSB, actually) that Senators could command military forces up to division size, and that abuse of this power was part of what prompted the nomenclature shift from division to battlegroup. I'm sure it did wonders for Army morale; lose enough buddies to idiotic orders from rank amateurs and you will certainly be glad when that practice becomes illegal.

Well at age 14 Padme did lead a small group of Naboo security volunteers to retake control of the Naboo palace! 8) Padme didn't have military "expertise" but she did have some military training in her background. And as far as "authority" goes, I refer you first to ANH:
| Quote: | | General Kenobi, years ago you served my father in the Clone Wars... |
Before the prequels, I always imagined that Senator Organa had directed Obi-Wan in "The Battle of Alderaan" and this horific conflict is what directly lead to
Alderaan adopting a stance of being weapon-free and peaceful. Even by 2005, I still expected to see this battle in RotS. That obviously didn't happen, but we did get this line from Obi-Wan:
| Quote: | | Anakin, my allegiance is to the Republic, to democracy! |
In light of the completed prequel trilogy, I read that the line Leia's hologram said now just refers to the fact that, in general, the Jedi served the Senate of the Galactic Republic. So General Kenobi served Senator Organa... from a certain point of view. 8)
My point is, the clones served the Jedi, and the Jedi served the Republic Senate. Ergo, the clones served the Senate (until Order 66 that is). As Padme was a Senator that had just fallen off of a ship carrying Jedi on a desparate mission to confront the enemy's leader, I think the clone had every reason to follow Padme's reasonable order. Since the pilot of that ship was a clonetrooper too, it is not beyond reason that the clone would have radioed in his location, who was on board and the Jedi-directed mission at that moment, so the clone on the ground would know who Padme was.
That all works for me anyway.
