|
|
As I announced elsewhere, once the last WOTC Star Wars books rolls out in April, I intend to start re-editing all of my Stats books so that they contain all of the up-to-date information.
It would be a great help if people could use this thread to point out typos, mistakes, missing stats and whatnot. certainly my personal files currently have a lot more than what is contained in the old Stats books, but don't be afraid to point out anything you deem fishy.
I also intend to play around a bit with the formatting of the new books. I want to make them even more WEG-looking (something I learned from doing GG15), with a new layout, some flavour text, new covers and a new name for the series. Something a little less dry than "***** Stats" and more in line with some of the old WEG book names. So, I'm also open to suggestions and offers in the whole layout department. _________________ "He's Gry Sarth, of course he has the stats for them." |

I'm sure you've already made note of everything there, but don't forget about this thread!!

Remember to use the Cheltenham font for body text.
The other thing is could we have synchronized stats between the stats books and the Saga conversion books and Cody's AOTC and eventually the ROTS Galaxy Guides. _________________ The Enteague Sector | Cracken's Collection of Crackpots

For the most part, the stats will be synchronized with these other books. However, these new Stats books will represent the most up-do-date version of them, so there might be a few alterations that were made with time. _________________ "He's Gry Sarth, of course he has the stats for them." |

This isn't necessarily a correction but a clarification, the stats for the Scarab-droid do't list a Fire Control. I'm not sure it it was meant to be Fire Control: 0D, or if there is some value that was accidentally omitted. |

Thanks for the heads up on the Scarab. It made me look again at the whole stat block and there quite a few weird things about it, so I made some changes.
Keep'em coming guys. _________________ "He's Gry Sarth, of course he has the stats for them." |

The hard bit is remember just where the little "oopses" were when I last broswed through the books. It's like searching for the proverbial needle in the haystack. Probably a sign as to just how much you guys did right.
BTW, Any chance of a peak at the new Scarab stats? My PCs are going to have a space battle with some on Monday. |

I think he might add on all the conversions that have been made to date. But with one more sourcebook coming out, you don't need to worry about laminating them yet. |

I imagine that there will be quite a few additions to the book. I'm guessing that we're going to add some of the Saga powers, plus there are two misprints that I can think of off the top of my head. (Not bad considering how many WEG would have on average.) I'm also going to add a couple of mechanical tweaks to places where there are obvious mistakes when Gry gets to that point. _________________ __________________________________
