Osrik Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 So, I've decided that I will be starting a tabletop RPG group here if there is enough interest, specifically playing Star Wars Edge of the Empire . You don't really need to be a Star Wars fan to play, and a lack of knowledge of the events and source material won't put you at a disadvantage. We would probably meet every week or every other week depending on scheduling, using Roll20 and possibly Discord. As we will be doing a continuing campaign, players should try to make the majority of sessions, but missing one from time to time will not be a major issue. So, who's interested? And what is your availability? Right now the possible days/times on my side are: after 8 PM EST on Sunday, Monday, Wednesday, Friday, or Saturday.

Zerig Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 I would play ideally on Friday or weekend nights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osrik Posted September 7, 2016 Author Share Posted September 7, 2016 So, there doesn't seem to be too much interest, but let me just make sure directly before calling it quits... @Feelwell the Rabbit @LadyRadarEars @Eggdodger @DrGravitas @Falaffel I know you guys were involved in Kosha's group, just wanted to see if you were interested in this group.

DrGravitas Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 I don't know anything about this game, but I guess I could give it a shot. Same time as the other game would work for me, as would most weekdays, but I'd be kind of limited in how late I could be up on weekdays because of work.

Feelwell Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Um... Ummmm.... Now that school is in session I'm at my friends less and have a more rigid schedule. The downside is everything is currently as interesting, entertaining or enticing as french-kissing a shotgun barrel. I'm going to have to decline for now, sorry...

LadyRadarEars Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 If its anything like the d20 star wars rpgs I'm interested, although I should note I'm only really free on wednesdays and sundays due to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falaffel Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Sure. I'm free in all weekends at any time, and I'm free after 4pm CST every weekday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eggdodger Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 I said to you in DMs that I would most definitely play. This hasn't changed. =p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Osrik Posted September 8, 2016 Author Share Posted September 8, 2016 Okay, so it looks like Friday works the best for the greatest number of people (sorry Lady, would starting later help?), so we will most likely be aiming for Fridays at 8 PM EST. If this works, I would like to start character creation relatively soon, possibly this Friday or over the weekend. This would not require everyone to be present (and best if you're not; there are aspects of your character you might want to keep secret from the rest of the party), though you might want to confer with each other on character ideas beforehand. 3 hours ago, #00Buck said: Can I be R2D2? 46 minutes ago, Kosha said: I want this. I imagine Buck being a cigar chomping, wise cracking, Astromech droid. Though I am pretty certain this was a shitpost, the funny thing is, that would be a perfectly legitimate (R2 units are specifically suggesting as an option under the droid "species") and even somewhat fitting (we're playing scum, after all) character in this system. Hell, one of my previous parties had an unhinged R2 with a built in flamethrower as an NPC companion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaer Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 I'd be totally in on this. I'm usually free... all the time. Because I'm pathetic and a loser like that. =w= But overall this sounds pretty fun! Count me in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, I think I will start tonight...\ @Kosha @Zerig @Falaffel @Eggdodger @DrGravitas @Vaer @LadyRadarEars For anyone who is available, I can help you start making your character. We will not be starting until next week, but I want to get as many characters done before that as I can. https://app.roll20.net/join/1638445/CS8b3A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, on the off chance it wasn't a shitpost, I'll give it my all to recruit him: @#00Buck Do you want in?

Kosha Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Quick Question: Are we going by Star Wars Canon, Star Wars Legends, or are we blurring the lines between both? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osrik Posted September 10, 2016 Author Share Posted September 10, 2016 5 minutes ago, Kosha said: Quick Question: Are we going by Star Wars Canon, Star Wars Legends, or are we blurring the lines between both? Legends, both because I know it well and the FFG game uses the old canon heavily (as there would be almost nothing to draw from without it). However, the campaign will be taking place during the times of the original trilogy (We'll be starting a bit before the Battle of Yavin), so it won't make a huge difference in terms of timeline events, more just the greater variety in weapons, equipment, ships, and locations provided by the old EU. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Osrik Posted September 11, 2016 Author Share Posted September 11, 2016 @Falaffel @Eggdodger @DrGravitas @Vaer @LadyRadarEars @Kosha @Zerig Continuing with character creation. We will go over general choices of species and career, as well as party decisions, and then I will work with everyone individually (possibly through voice chat, to speed things up) to create their characters. Also Important note: Sessions will now be at 9:30 PM EST on Fridays, rather than 8:00. https://app.roll20.net/join/1638445/CS8b3A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyRadarEars Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Nine times out of ten I have closing shifts from 3 to 11 pm est on fridays, I was only off this past friday because I was almost inordinate and they didn't want to pay me overtime money. I'm free on mondays and sundays all day, everything else is up in the air dependent on the schedule I get on the tuesday of that week, so if its going to be on fridays I'm going to have to bow out, sorry :< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Osrik Posted September 18, 2016 Author Share Posted September 18, 2016 @Zerig @Kosha @LadyRadarEars @DrGravitas @Vaer @Eggdodger @Falaffel Small Update/Reminder: We will be meeting for our first session at 6:30 rather than 6:00 PM EST tonight. Also, would everyone be okay with doing voice chat? With 7-8 people, I expect the text chat could become somewhat chaotic and hard for everyone to follow, so voice chat might work slightly better. We would be using voice chat mostly for narration and role-playing, while the text log on Roll20 would be for rolls, questions, and secret/private interactions (if you're trying to pickpocket another party member, for example) and conversations between party members.

Osrik Posted September 24, 2016 Author Share Posted September 24, 2016 @Zerig @Kosha @LadyRadarEars @DrGravitas @Vaer @Eggdodger Update: Session this Sunday is cancelled due to a player having work. Next session will be in 2 weeks time. Also, I realize I never went over the rules in any detail at the beginning of last session with all the confusion as to where everyone was, so I will go over the rules (that comic is good for the symbology, but there are other things you guys should know) and some gameplay notes/tips at the beginning of the next session.
