Tales of the Old Republic game

[Doctor Who]

Would people want more defined maps or just sketches/pictures?

I ask because I'm the kind of guy that likes map tactics as a player, but what say you three?

Defined maps are great but sketches will work.

[DeepSpacer]

Maps are fine with me so long as they come easily. I wouldn't want to wait around just so a map could be put out there. In such a case, cinematic verbal descriptions are fine for me.

[ThreeBFour]

I personally happen to love looking at maps, layouts, and floor-plans, but am quite willing to accept sketches, especially if it makes life easier on the GM and the other players are smart enough and imaginative enough to figure things out, and I'm pretty sure these guys have those abilities.

[ThreeBFour]

Quick question Are you allowing any of the species from OggDude's?
Just tinkering with ideas, but figured I'd ask.

Also what do people think of a Verpine Artisan?

Play what you'd like. I tend to stick to main species prevalent in the movies. Verpine have all verpine weaponry named after them and are a good maximizer race, which, I think, makes them popular. If they have a significant meaning in the novels or comics, then I wouldn't know about it.

[kanila]

Play what you think will be enjoyable.

[Doctor Who]

Yeah,I'm fine with the 3pp species on OggDude's app.

And definitely go for something you enjoy. Balance isn't that big an issue, you're all Jedi in training, not Jedi commandos specifically chosen for a balanced party for a field mission.

They did built the B-Wing...lol

Like I said before just tinkering around, looking at something not normally seen mainstream Jedi-wise.

[kanila]

Why not a Jawa or an Ewok?

[ThreeBFour]

I have thought of a Jawa, but that may just be too corny even for me, although maybe a Squib. I figured Ewoks were probably completely unknown although possible, but I really don't like the Unofficial version of the Ewok either. I think they should have come with the Primitive flaw as an automatic, and increase the smell out to medium range. It would be more fitting with RoJ.

I did consider a Ryn maybe.

[kanila]

Ryn are pretty cool.

[Doctor Who]

No Ewoks, they won't have been discovered yet.

[kanila]

The Ewok was more of a joke than anything. Like recommending a Tuskan Raider as a pacifist monk.

[Doctor Who]

I'd play a pacifist Tusken, would be an interseting character dynamic.

[DeepSpacer]

The Ithorians supposedly have a pacifist tradition. I was considering an Ithorian who would focus on Suppress and powers to stop people. The Warden lawkeeper was my other idea at this time.

I managed to give myself a good laugh earlier with an idea I hit upon. Although a pacifist Tusken is pretty good. Hutt - Warrior - Aggressor with the Force Power of Enhance, right now Force Leap Horizontal and Vertical have been chosen. Holy jumping Hutts Batman.

[Doctor Who]

Hoping shadow gets some time soon. I've just about finished the first 2 big chunks, and the opening chapter, and next is lightsaber creation, for which I'll need backstories to design. But I don't want to get too deep into that until I have all 5 people.

[kanila]

I have the stats for my character pretty much done but I have been holding off on his background. If you want/need it I'll work on it so you have it.

[Doctor Who]

I'm not gonna do much with them till we have a start date. I'm just waiting to hear from Shadow, and then one more person. Hopefully it'll be one of the recent new guys on the site, but I haven't gotten a bite from them yet.

[ShadoWarrior]

I'm in, Doc. Post #1 does not list anyone's build choices (yet) so I have no idea what sort of Jedi Padawan I should (or should not) create. As best I can tell, this game doesn't yet have it's own forum, so there's no concepts subforum yet.

[swrider]

I haven't created a forum yet as Doc was still a ways out on starting. I can create the forum whenever Doc is ready, unless Shado beats me to it.

[Doctor Who]

Make a forum I guess, who ever wants to.

I hadn't put up what people were planning because no one had locked in on an idea yet.

[Doctor Who]

I don't have a good name for the campaign yet.

[swrider]

Doesn't seem like their is a hurry. Ill get one up in the next day or two.
