Star Wars: Roleplaying Game (Tabletop Game)	comment	Star Wars Roleplaying Game is the third major incarnation of the Star Wars Tabletop RPGs, published by Fantasy Flight Games to succeed West End Games' Star Wars d6 and the Wizards of the Coast's Star Wars d20. It currently consists of three sets, all based on the same Game System set by default around the same time (between A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back), but each with different narrative and gameplay focus:

Star Wars: Roleplaying Game (Tabletop Game) / int_104e61c6	type	No Saving Throw
Star Wars: Roleplaying Game (Tabletop Game) / int_104e61c6	comment	No Saving Throw: It's generally accepted that certain Force powers (like Influence) should just work when applied to NPCs of little or no consequence, such as Minions and some Rivals, and should only trigger an opposed check when they're used against important Rivals or any Nemesis. It's also accepted that any Player Character who's targeted by such a Force power should always be able to make an opposed check to resist, since PCs should always be considered "strong willed."

Star Wars: Roleplaying Game (Tabletop Game) / int_1117770f	comment	Actually Four Mooks: Minion groups serve as this mechanically, though not narratively. Minions are NPCs who are generally non-threatening alone but progressively more dangerous in greater numbers, with shared skills increasing in rank (from 0) for each Minion added after the first one. But your GM will still describe the Minion group as "four stormtroopers" narratively. (At least, if they aren't also trying to get you killed.)

Star Wars: Roleplaying Game (Tabletop Game) / int_113480b7	comment	Canon Foreigner: As expected for a licensed RPG, the books borrow heavily from a variety of Star Wars sources (including the expanded universe and Legends), meaning many characters, items, and locations from the books, comics, and other games make appearances in the RPG. Some notable examples include Doctor Aphra in Allies & Adversaries and the Starhawk-class battleship in Starships & Speeders. So far, though, nothing from the RPG has crossed into canon. (Unless you count the Raider-class corvette in Friends Like These.)

For those unfamiliar with the Star Wars Legends, cortosis is a metal that can block lightsabers, meaning any attempt to deflect a cortosis-jacketed round will meet with problems. In Strongholds of Resistance, a source book for Age of Rebellion, characters get access to Verpine shatter weapons, also from Legends.

Star Wars: Roleplaying Game (Tabletop Game) / int_1527d90d	comment	Early Game Hell: Starting Force-users have an extra set of abilities, in the form of Force powers, to spend their starting points on and therefore will not be as skilled as their allies. Starting Force-users generally don't get a lightsaber either, they have to find them in play. And finally, with a starting Force rating of 1 it's more than likely that you'll have to draw on the Dark Side—with its accompanying costs in strain, Conflict, and Destiny Points—to make any Force power work. This is compensated for by eventually becoming more powerful than other characters once you get further through your talent trees and upgrade your Force powers enough.

The Technician career's "Inventive Creation" Signature Ability lets a PC build any device with a Rarity of 5 or lower (which can be increased with upgrades) that will last until the end of the encounter, at which point it immediately breaks.

Star Wars: Roleplaying Game (Tabletop Game) / int_21f60711	comment	Good Is Not Soft: Played up with many of the specializations across the game books, as several of them provide abilities that increase a PC's killing power, even if they're considered a paragon of virtue and justice. Special mention goes to a few in particular: The Enforcer (Hired Gun) understands that violence gets results, and that even the threat of violence is sometimes enough. The Vanguard (Soldier) excels at moving fast, getting close, and striking first to preemptively eliminate threats. The Colossus (Warrior) can take and dish out a ridiculous amount of punishment, in a somewhat more literal example of this trope. The Executioner (Seeker) embodies the ideals of an apex predator, acting in a way that is both preemptive and direct.

Star Wars: Roleplaying Game (Tabletop Game) / int_25afd4a3	comment	Good Guns, Bad Guns: Disruptor weapons are described as cruel, agonizing firearms that are broadly considered illegal across the galaxy. When compared with more common blaster weapons, they don't have a stun setting and have the Vicious quality, which automatically increases critical injury results when they're rolled. They also have higher damage and lower critical ratings.

A number of talents and actions also utilize famous lines from the movies, like the talents "The Force Is My Ally" and "Aggressive Negotiations", where others function identically to certain feats from KotOR; "Toughened", for example, serves the same purpose as "Toughness" did in that it increases a character's Hit Points.

Star Wars: Roleplaying Game (Tabletop Game) / int_276ad49e	comment	Karma Meter: Force and Destiny features a Morality score that represents the character's standing with the Light and Dark Side of the Force and is swayed to either side by performing virtuous or evil acts, frequently tied in to a character's emotional strengths and weaknesses. It's not simply cosmetic, either, as being a paragon (over 70) or dark-sider (under 30) has mechanical benefits and drawbacks, but only with Force abilities; players can have a Morality score (i.e. it can be used with Age of Rebellion and Edge of the Empire) without being Force-users, but there's little mechanical point to it.

Linked weapons allow you to hit a single target multiple times (up to the weapon's Linked rating) with enough advantages. Auto-fire lets you do the same thing but with the option to hit multiple targets, though you have to declare it before your skill check and roll against a higher difficulty. (Unless you have a specific talent.)

Star Wars: Roleplaying Game (Tabletop Game) / int_391e5643	comment	Official Game Variant: As with all tabletop RPGs, house rules are generally encouraged and Rule Zero always applies. But one house rule suggested explicitly in the Special Modifications sourcebook: the addition of a Cybernetics skill, for any group with a dedicated cyberneticist in their midst. The given reasoning is that neither Mechanics nor Medicine quite cover cybernetic modifications on their own, and for some GMs it might be preferable to have a single skill that can address all aspects. The devs have said they don't believe the canonical Star Wars characters fit neatly into the careers and specializations on offer in the books. Therefore, they suggest stats for such characters be tweaked depending on their role in the story, such as Luke being a Colonist in A New Hope,note representing his background as a moisture farmer at the start of the film an Ace or Commander in The Empire Strikes Back,note representing his ongoing role in the Rebel Alliance and any one of a number of careers in Return of the Jedi.note representing his aspirations to be a Jedi Knight

Other characters only have to split XP two ways, between skills and specializations/talents. Having a third way to spend XP, in Force powers, can slow their progression relative to other characters. However, once they hit their stride, even having a single fully-upgraded Force power can change the course of, potentially, every encounter. (If signature abilities were not already as powerful as they were, they might count, as their upgrades take them from merely powerful to almost game-breaking.)

Star Wars: Roleplaying Game (Tabletop Game) / int_43555d33	type	Heroes Prefer Swords
Star Wars: Roleplaying Game (Tabletop Game) / int_43555d33	comment	Heroes Prefer Swords: The most obvious Star Wars example is averted in Edge of the Empire and Age of Rebellion: lightsabers are incredibly expensive and are at the highest rarity level so you won't be getting them anytime soon. Played straight in that player characters are able to use various kinds of vibro weapons, which when combined with a high Brawn rating and weapon attachments such as a monomolecular edge, players can still be very, very deadly, if not to Jedi levels. Can still be averted even in Force and Destiny. Starter lightsabers, while formidable, are usually only awarded at the end of a major quest, meaning PCs will be using other weapons (and putting ranks into those skills) up until that point. Even then, only one talent allows lightsabers to reflect blaster bolts back at the target, and it's not found in all the lightsaber trees, limiting the weapon to melee effectiveness. At Engaged range, if the lightsaber-wielding PC misses, the stormtrooper can just step back out of Engaged and shoot the PC with a lower difficulty than the PC had in the melee. Played straight once the PCs have invested plenty of XP in their lightsaber talent trees.

Star Wars: Roleplaying Game (Tabletop Game) / int_49f8c18f	comment	Ace Custom: In an almost literal example, the Rigger is an Ace who can designate a signature vehicle and get bonuses for modifying and customizing it. The Technician's Modder specialization shares some of Rigger's talents, although not to the same extent. Several of the career sourcebooks also include rules for building custom equipment important to or associated with that career (though anyone can make them, certain specializations are more suited to making certain equipment), which (if the Force or dice are with them) can end up significantly more powerful than equipment of a similar type: The Guardian rulebook, Keeping the Peace, includes rules for making armor. (The Guardian has the Armorer as a career specialization.) The Sentinel rulebook, Endless Vigil, includes rules for making lightsabers. (The Sentinel has the Artisan as a career specialization.) The Technican rulebook, Special Modifications, includes rules to make weapons (except for lightsabers), droids, cybernetic implants, and specialist equipment. (The Technician has Droid Tech, Cyber Tech, Outlaw Tech, and Modder as career specializations.) The Engineer rulebook, Fully Operational, includes rules for making starships. (The Engineer career has Shipwright as a career specialization.) The Mystic rulebook, Unlimited Power, includes rules for the Jedi-forbidden art of alchemy, which covers both the RPG classic potion-making and "enchanting" items by imbuing them with the Force. (The Mystic career has Alchemist as a career specialization.) In the additional rules found in the Force and Destiny GM's kit, players who construct their own lightsabers from the ground up get a say in how the hilt looks and possibly a free modification, depending on the roll.

Star Wars: Roleplaying Game (Tabletop Game) / int_4f4372e9	comment	Early-Installment Weirdness: In the earliest releases for the game line, they not only don't include statistics for canonical characters like Vader or Luke, but even seem to quietly discourage providing statistics for such characters—at one point all but saying an encounter with Darth Vader should be "you lose"—presumably due to the ancient GM's rule of thumb that if you give a character statistics, your players will try to kill it. Starting with Dawn of Rebellion, however, books that include NPCs have started to give statistics to named canon characters. Technically, the habit of including canon NPCs in books started with the adventure The Jewel of Yavin, which included Cloud City as a setting and Lando Calrissian as its baron administrator. However, a sidebar took special pains to explain how the version of Lando presented in the book was only intended for that particular role, and that his statistics could be changed (or be completely different) if a GM wanted to use him as a rebellion general in a separate adventure. While the newer books still generally support this idea (especially the sourcebook Allies & Adversaries) they don't have as explicit a statement about it.

Star Wars: Roleplaying Game (Tabletop Game) / int_51567188	comment	Cast from Hit Points: Many active talents require a character takes strain to activate them, usually 2 or 3 points of it. As implied, strain isn't exactly hit points—characters also have wound points—but you if you run out of strain, you do lose consciousness. The lowest strain threshold can be is generally 10, meaning you could activate these talents up to a minimum of five times. However, you can also take strain from rolling Threat in combat, which can lead to your character getting KO'd after activating a particularly impressive ability. Of course, you can reduce your strain by rolling Advantage or making a Resilience check after the end of an encounter, which can prolong your "casting" ability. In that case it depends on how much the Random Number God likes you on a given night. Some specializations also have a talent that allow a character to recover more or even full strain at the end of an encounter, representing their serenity, bottomless confidence, or sheer cussed stubbornness. The "Channel Agony" talent is a more traditional example. Allowing Force users to inflict wounds on themselves to generate dark side points on Force checks. Similarly, "Power From Pain" is a conflict-generating talent that allows a Colossus to gain Force rating equal to the number of critical injuries they currently suffer from.

Star Wars: Roleplaying Game (Tabletop Game) / int_6320eced	comment	Gameplay and Story Segregation: The Last Jedi and The Empire Strikes Back imply that actual training with the Force isn't all that important when it comes to moving huge boulders or X-wings around. Instead what matters is believing you can do something with the Force. In game, for obvious balance reasons, it doesn't matter how much you believe; beginning characters are stuck straining to move lightsabers and blasters around until they can increase their Force rating enough to handle larger objects - though due to balancing problems, a mid-level force-sensitive character could telekinetically move a star destroyer, while a high-level one could move the Death Star. The effortless deflections of dozens of blaster bolts shown by the Jedi in the movies is not really possible in the game. The Reflect talent does allow you to negate some of the damage from a blaster bolt, but you would have to master multiple Lightsaber talent trees in order to buy enough levels of Reflect to completely negate a single bolt from a low-end blaster pistol. You'll also suffer strain with each Reflected bolt, so it's not "effortless" even for a master of Reflect. Reflecting vehicle-scale weapons is effectively impossible, as they do 10 times as much damage as regular blasters, and there aren't enough levels of Reflect to buy across all of the available Lightsaber talent trees to negate that much damage. The Peerless Deflection signature ability, for the Jedi career introduced in Rise of the Separatists (though the ability is printed in the companion book Collapse of the Republic, somewhat mitigates this—with the right upgrades and supporting talents, a Jedi can protect an entire party if they stay close enough for up to four rounds, twice per session, at the cost of 1 strain per round, if all they do is deflect, while also requiring fewer ranks in Parry and Reflect. It still costs strain and destiny points, so it's not "effortless", and it still can't do much against vehicle-scale weapons. It's also at the end of a talent tree and therefore rather expensive to get to and upgrade.

Star Wars: Roleplaying Game (Tabletop Game) / int_688bddeb	comment	Guns vs. Swords: The standard Star Wars tension of "an elegant weapon" vs "a good blaster at your side" is present, but they each have their uses, and many PCs will likely find themselves carrying one of each. In fact, it's possible to use each of them at once. Firing guns at Engaged range increases the difficulty of hitting the target, while Brawl, Melee, and Lightsaber attacks are always the same base difficulty. In addition, the damage of an attack with any kind of melee weapon is increased by your character's Brawn (unless it's a lightsaber). Meanwhile, ranged weapons generally have a higher (though static) base damage than their melee counterparts (unless it's a lightsaber). The difficulty to hit is based on the range of the target, so if you survive the initial attack at Engaged range, it's just a single maneuver to step out of range for an Easy difficulty shot. As a note, your character's defense rating can be different for ranged and melee attacks, which can give one type of weapon a distinct advantage over the other when dealing with certain foes.

Star Wars: Roleplaying Game (Tabletop Game) / int_812ee32b	comment	Linear Bounty Hunters, Quadratic Jedi: This is mostly downplayed throughout the game, but there are shades of this at the extreme ends of experience point totals. Since beginner Force-using PCs have to purchase Force powers through earned XP and are unlikely to begin with lightsabers, non-Force users have something of an edge in the early game as they have more XP to put into skills, talents, and extra specializations. The gap closes fairly quickly and stays closed for a long time, keeping Force users and non-Force users in balance for most of the game. The quadratic part comes into play more strongly with abilities that let the force users cheaply add their force rating into the dice pools of certain skills - not very relevant if it's just a single additional die, extremely powerful if it's four of them that suddenly get applied to every social skill and put the face character out of a job. Additionally, some of the force powers published during Edge of the Empire were balanced around the assumption players would never advance past two force dice. Signature Abilities mitigate this somewhat, allowing non-Force users to accomplish profound (if still mundane) feats. But these are limited to being used once per session and cost Destiny Points to attempt... and anyone who started with a Force and Destiny career (and thus begins the game with Force sensitivity) gets them, too - if they can spare the XP.

Star Wars: Roleplaying Game (Tabletop Game) / int_869ffa6b	comment	Random Number God: The custom dice take some getting used to, with the symbols used for some of the results being rather abstract. The Force dice are simple white or black pips and fairly easy to read. Threat looks somewhat like the Imperial symbol, so that's appropriate. Successes are explosions, and Triumph is a cool Jedi-like sign, both not too bad, though some players have found it difficult to remember that explosions are good. Nobody seems to know what the Advantage symbol is supposed to be, though (laurels? A pair of headphones?) or why something that looks like caltrops are Failures. Or why Despair, the worst result you can get, is a triangle in a circle. Many players also refer to the dice by color rather than their name in the rules. "Hand me a yellow and two greens" is more common than "I need a Proficiency die and two Ability dice." The Advantage symbol, combined with the Triumph symbol, forms the symbol of the Jedi Order, while the Despair symbol strongly resembles that of the Old Sith Empire. The failure symbol is a bit more tricky; perhaps because it looks like a Sith holocron. The dice mechanics also mean that the GM of these games needs to be ready to improvise at all times. Results like rolling no net successes (and so failing at whatever the character was attempting to do) but a lot of Advantage, and a Triumph (indicating something very good has happened to the character) are not only possible but not at all uncommon with experienced player characters rolling lots of dice on their checks. It also means that assembling all the dice for a roll, picking what talents should apply, rolling, deciding whether other talents should change the results, and finally interpreting the results tends to take much longer than in systems that use fewer dice and a more simple "success or fail" mechanic.

Notably, the six careers for each game line correspond roughly to one of the six stats (it's more obvious in Force and Destiny, where each career has a specialization for lightsaber combat that relies heavily on one of the stats)—and in some cases it's even possible to puzzle out that each of the six specializations for each career relies more heavily on one stat, thematically if not mechanically, than the others.

Sometimes the difference is "this talent tree is for Force-sensitives; that talent tree is not". But even when the two trees are largely similar, such as with the Doctor (Colonist) and Medic (Soldier) trees, a character can skip right over having to buy non-ranked talents they already have from other sources. That said, if a character only gets specializations that fit into a narrow focus, they will end up very, very good at one thing—and not much else.

Star Wars: Roleplaying Game (Tabletop Game) / int_aaaca277	comment	Luck Manipulation Mechanic: Light side Destiny Points can be flipped by the players to upgrade their own skill checks, upgrade the difficulty of enemy skill checks, remember a small item they forgot to bring with them, or already know an NPC in a given scene (subject to GM discretion, of course) among other things. Be warned, though: the GM can flip dark side Destiny Points to make things harder for the player or easier for the NPCs. In many games, this back-and-forth leads to a vibrant Luck Manipulation Economy. This is the Gambler (Smuggler specialization) skill tree's specialty, and the Hotshot, a high-risk high-reward flavored Ace specialization, has a couple of talents in this vein as well. Curiously, the Juyo Berserker perhaps has the most direct use of the Destiny Point pool, with the tree splitting into two branches, one that gives combat bonuses based on light side points in the pool, one that gives combat bonuses based on dark side points in the pool. The total number of points in the Destiny pool and the initial balance of Light side to Dark side Destiny Points is itself determined by random die rolls at the beginning of each play session. It's therefore possible for the pool to start off all Light side or all Dark, and for the number of Destiny Points to be as few as the number of players or up to twice as many. A group that generates a pool of twice as many Dark side Destiny points as there are players with no Light side points is probably in for a rough night.

This can be a criticism of high-XP games, where characters can become indistinct if players put their XP into a broader and broader selection of skills and talents so that they're never completely useless in any one situation. Combat can be the most obvious example, with every character being able to handle every type of weapon, at least a little bit. This is especially true if the GM tends to focus on particular scenarios, which often leads players to give themselves ranks in skills that come up most often. The different careers and specializations help somewhat, especially as adding more talent trees has an increasing XP cost.

One of the novels re-introduced cortosis into the canon continuity, and while useless until refined, cortosis is, in fact, very very tough towards normal attacks and resistant to lightsabers nearly as described in the game book.

Star Wars: Roleplaying Game (Tabletop Game) / int_d291ea97	comment	No Campaign for the Wicked: All of the books are generally written with the assumption that a PC will be a light-side Force user, a rebel against the Empire, or a Jerk with a Heart of Gold. Only a couple of sidebars spread out across the entire game system mention playing an "evil" campaign. However, the rules for playing a dark-sider are well-established in Force and Destiny,, it's easy enough to take the rules for rebels in Age of Rebellion and turn them around to use for Imperial characters, and all you have to do to be a complete Jerkass in Edge of the Empire is not have a heart of gold. It helps that all of the Careers and Specializations are archetypal, meaning they could be applied to any number of PC builds. (For example, the Vanguard is simply a specialization of the Soldier that closes the distance to the enemy, distracts foes, and takes hits. It's very easy to play such as either a brave selfless soldier looking to protect his comrades, or as a kill-crazy Blood Knight who likes to charge in because they prefer the brutality of close combat.)

(Unless the weapon has the Limited Ammo quality.) Instead, the GM can use a Despair on a ranged attack roll to declare your weapon has run out of ammunition. This can be avoided if your character has the "Spare Clip" talent; otherwise, you'll need to switch to a different weapon, use an extra reload if you have one, or get creative.

The Hermit (Seeker), Sage (Consular), and Seer (Mystic) specializations might also count, the first relying on withdrawing (at least partially) from and surviving without society to contemplate the Force, the second involves studying the world and the Force in equal intensity, and the third being about using the Force to unlock greater wisdom and even powerful visions.

Star Wars: Roleplaying Game (Tabletop Game) / int_da6264c7	comment	Action Initiative: This system has two skills for PCs and NPCs to use when rolling initiative: Cool, for if the character could have reasonably expected the encounter, and Vigilance, for if the character could not have foreseen it. Initiative outcomes determine the order of PC and NPC slots in the order, with the players able to decide which PCs go in which PC slot at the top of each round and the GM doing the same for NPCs. This can allow players to be tactical with some abilities, such as buffs that end on their next turn. They can activate that ability in the first PC slot of the first round and then take the last PC slot of the second round, in order to maximize the ability's effect. Of course, the GM can do that with NPCs, too. It's also worth mentioning that different characters might end up using different skills for initiative, even in the same encounter. For example, if the Bounty Hunter starts a barfight while the Smuggler is making a deal with a Hutt, the Bounty Hunter rolls Cool (he started it, after all) while the Smuggler is as surprised as everyone else and rolls Vigilance.

Star Wars: Roleplaying Game (Tabletop Game) / int_e1636077	comment	Schrödinger's Canon: Understandably, as this incarnation of the roleplaying game began around the time the Star Wars franchise was sold to Disney and was rebooted, the information used here is a combination of Legends material and new canon material. It is officially considered Legends, and as such, info from new canon is instead renamed or squeezes around Legends material. However, Pablo Hidalgo from the Lucasfilm Story Group has gone on record to say that the information in the RPG are not thoroughly looked through and filtered by the group, meaning that information here might contradict upcoming information in new canon at some point. For example, the Journeyman Protectors shown in Rebels were brought into the game, but was renamed to the Concord Dawn Protectorate in order to differentiate from the original Journeyman Protectors the new canon is based off of. Another example is that that the "True Mandalorian" faction (otherwise known as the faction that supported Mandalorians following the Supercommando Codex and the honor code) is renamed to "Old Mandalorian", now including the Concord Dawn Protectorate. Lothal and its Jedi Temple are locations in "Nexus of Power" which also says that the temple is the site of a vergence in the Force. A Siege of Lasan is also mentioned (and there was an Apprehension of Lasan in Legends), having been massacred by Imperial Security Bureau agents wielding T-7 disruptors. Sabine can be seen in an illustration for "Friends Like These", as well as Ezra in an illustration for "Forged In Battle". "Forged In Battle" also features an illustration of rebel soldiers in similar attire to that of Phoenix Squadron. Ezra and Sabine can both be seen in "Endless Vigil", as well as Ezra next to Kanan in "Disciples Of Harmony". Ketsu can also be seen in "No Disintegrations". Picaroon and Gorc from the Dark Forces Saga can also be seen in "Disciples Of Harmony". The "Dawn of Rebellion" supplement features Kanan on the cover, and almost all art in the book is based on the show (with some from Rogue One), on top of every member of the Ghost cell getting stats, as well as other characters from the show.

Star Wars: Roleplaying Game (Tabletop Game) / int_e6630c8b	comment	Gameplay and Story Integration: The Shien Expert specialization has a branch of its talent tree representing a variant more focused on raw physical power, Djem So; rather than using Cunning, the talents in that branch rely on Brawn. Similarly, the Juyo Berserker specialization might be the most difficult tree in the game to fill in, and further splits at one point, allowing one to follow a quick path to "Juyo Savagery" or a longer yet gentler path to Vaapad Balance, Juyo being a dangerous lightsaber form relying on aggression and Vaapad being Mace Windu's slightly more refined and controlled variant. The Force Die has the majority of its faces (7) covered with Dark Side points, six of which are singular, while three of the remaining five faces have two Light Side points. This means that while you're more likely to roll Dark Side results, rolling Light Side results generally gives you more points to utilize for Force abilities. Which fits into the lore that the Dark Side is "quicker, easier, more seductive", but that the Light Side is more powerful overall. In Knights of Fate, the final career sourcebook for Force and Destiny, the last chapter of the book includes a history of lightsaber combat which also attempts to explain why and how different forms are able to use statistics other than Brawn with different forms of lightsaber combat (Presence with Form II, Intellect with Form III). It's up to the reader how good a job it does. Many specializations tell stories even with the generic ranked talents they include. The Surgeon talent, for example, simply increases the number of wounds healed by Medicine checks, and is found in several specializations: Cyber Tech (specializing in cyborg implants), Doctor, Healer, Medic...and Interrogator.

Star Wars: Roleplaying Game (Tabletop Game) / int_f4cc3a09	comment	Right Makes Might: Averted. The Force die, which controls a Force user's ability to tap into the Force, has an equal number of dark and light pips on it. There are more sides with dark pips, but the light pips are usually doubled up. This means that, while you're more likely to roll dark pips and either not use the Force or take strain (and a Morality hit in Force and Destiny) to convert them, when you roll light pips they're more likely to give you the points you need to use some of the more intense Force powers. This was done specifically because FFG wanted to allow players to be dark-siders if they wanted to. It also applies to benefits for falling to the dark side or being a light side paragon: falling to the dark side increases your strain threshold, but staying in the light increases your wound threshold. It also fits well with Yoda's statement that the Dark Side isn't stronger, just "quicker, easier, more seductive."

Star Wars: Roleplaying Game (Tabletop Game) / int_f89f164a	comment	Purposely Overpowered: In the Edge Of The Empire and Age Of Rebellion books lightsabers were an Awesome, but Impractical Infinity +1 Sword—one of the most powerful weapons in the game, but hard to find, dangerous just to possess, and with no way of gaining the skills necessary to use it correctly (though a house rule allowing characters to use the Brawl skill is suggested). Though still powerful after being toned down to more balanced levels in Force and Destiny they're still high on the power curve, with high damage, and low critical thresholds, while ignoring all soak, and all this before attachments and mods are factored in. But then...they're lightsabers. Each career's signature abilities, meant to represent a character's mastery of some aspect of their career, such as a Colonist reducing the difficulty of all their skills checks for a time, or a Hired Gun instantly killing all the minions in an encounter. They're only available after reaching the end of a career skill tree, and only one can be taken. Force Powers become obscene at later ranks, with Jedi sending entire groups of enemies flying with Move, automatically generating success or advantage on physical checks with Enhance, and making others unable to see them or objects with Misdirect. These come at a steep XP cost, though. In addition, while it's difficult to take a character to such levels of power, and the game's default setting is the relatively "low-magic" time frame of the original trilogy, it's entirely possible with the rules as written to take powers to the levels seen in the Old Republic games and books, such as Battlemind influencing conflicts on a planetary scale. But again: it's the Force.

Star Wars: Roleplaying Game (Tabletop Game) / int_ff34c05a	comment	Item Crafting: Mostly figures into supplementary books (see Ace Custom, above). Players can craft weapons and armor with Mechanics skill checks, spending Advantage and Triumph to grant the item additional bonuses and perks. Disadvantage and Despair adds flaws and mistakes though. Several specializations, talents, and at least one Force power include ways for characters to use the Force to temporarily or permanently enhanced crafted items. With a high enough Force rating items can become extremely powerful using the custom crafting rules.
