    Basically an internet version of one of the old WEG sourcebooks based on a single work.

    Like the Tales of the Jedi sourcebook.

    As long as there can be a chapter titled "Thought-Punches, by Duxa" I'm in.

    I was thinking a few things...

    1) Synopses of the episodes
    2) Planets visited as well as bits of what's important there
    3) NPCs, same sort of thing as above

    Also I sent y'all a link to a spreadsheet with a bunch of music. Feel free to contribute to it as much as you like!

    I was thinking about it and my little brother (not Buddha but another one) makes music from rock to hiphop to techno/dupstep. I could ask if he could make something up special for us.

    I asked my brother and he said he'll see if he can come up with something. It will give him a reason to try out his new Theremin.

    So we didn't actually come to a resolution with the group currently split 2-2 I think?

    To reiterate my earlier statement; I just don't see any way I can justify Duxa leaving for dathomir under these circumstances, at least not in character. As a player I think Duxa on dathomir would be rather entertaining, and probably effect the results in a rather... dramatic way.

    But someone is going to have to make the hard sell for that in character to get her to go.

    Side note: we were going to have Kik'tl make/modify a rifle with a stun function for Rayner for reasons that seem pretty silly now that we've determined that Rayner can just shoot random things to make things happen to bad people.

    Plus apparently there are vibro-machetes. So, obviously, that's a must have. (The Seeker book has a lot of really cool survival gear, frankly. Also cool Jedi stuff.)

    There is the LBR-9 Stun Rifle (not kidding) in the Explorer Book. It's 10 damage, no crit, long range, 6 encumberance, 2800 creds, Disorient 2 and obviously does Stun damage.

    Of course there's also custom work (from the Tech Book): Energy Rifles are Hard mechanics checks to produce. There's a ton of spending options based on advantages and triumphs (and also flaws to build in based on threats and despairs). One of them is adding the Stun 3 quality.

    Rayner and Kik'tl may have discussed this; they can likely make some credits on the side selling Kik'tl's experiments. It isn't as if there's much else to do while transiting about and if they have the parts available -- and they've got some -- why not mess about with them?

    Just realized that I didn't send invites for the next session. Here it is! I realize that it's in the OP, but figure it's always better to have something formal. If it's too late and there are conflicts, we can reschedule.

    So it's been two weeks and a PAX since we last played.

    What was the burning debate again?

    Head to spookyforcewitchtown or sit on our thumbs and watch the galaxy burn?

    FTFY.

    Kik's totally on board with trying to get Rayner a non-murderiffic weapon, it's on my to do list! I was going to try and sort that out before next session but it sorta snuck up on me here.

    Right.

    That was the other side.

    We should maybe also investigate (if babysitting) why the dark side seems to be creepin' round and spooking our crystal-shitting bugmonsters.

    Also how has Luke not noticed that yet?

    Do you need the Tech construction charts or anything? Also Rayner can give you another proficiency die.

    I only have the Armor chart so probably? That or you can tell me what to roll. I don't think Kik is likely to NOT build things the way Rayner prefers for Rayner's gear.

    Creating a heavy energy rifle is a daunting (4 purple) check that takes 1 day and costs 1k credits. 10 damage, 3 crit, long range, cumbersome 3.

    Leftover advantage and triumph can be spent on qualities (like stun).

    For the record, building blastswordchucks is the same check over two days.

    Just sayin.

    Heavy Energy Rifles are Gunnery weapons, though. Blaster rifles are Energy Rifles, which is a Hard (3 purps) check that takes 16 hours and costs 450 credits (or you have parts lying around -- which we probably do). Every success past the first cuts 2 hours off the work time (to a minimum of 1).

    Edit to add: there may be value in accepting a couple of throwaway efforts because there are spends that reduce difficulty on subsequent checks. i.e. we could spend 10 credits and an hour making a bow (2 purps) to take the Lessons Learned bonus twice, which would make the rifle check 1 purp difficulty. Because gaming the system is the correct approach...

    That's a weird inconsistency. Both examples given for heavy energy rifles are Ranged Heavy weapons.

    All I'm saying is that if somebody doesn't help Duxa build blastswordchucks, she's going to do it herself.

    And nobody wants that.

    Alright, to reiterate: Rayner has delivered super bad news about Dathomir and how the First Order is trying to persuade the Dathomiri Witches to join them (maybe).

    But the Rising Knights also have an Academy with 1.3 Jedi Masters, neither of whom are up for managing the schedules of all of the trainees, or even teaching classes.

    Currently we're sitting a 2 votes to go to Dathomir and 2 votes to stay on Yavin and manage the Academy.

    Dur'rahl would vote Academy, but he doesn't know about Dathomir.

    What's the approximate student/refugee/stray kitten population of the academy at this point, anyway?
