Jedi_Dajuan Title: Admiral keeps forgetting to change her title! Registered: Dec '02	Date Posted: 2/12 6:35am Subject: RE: Drumming some life into RPG/Minis
	FlareStorm posted: I switched back to other games: D&D, WoD, et all. Can we post about those? I know some of us can reminisce about the 80's rpg heydays. I don't see a problem having a thread or two about some other game systems, as long as they don't take over the forum. Moridin posted: For the record, I still read this forum almost every day, to see if there's anything I can chime in on...just hasn't been anything going on here. We've got some very active forums over on Wizards.com and the Holonet is still going (though I don't see as much traffic there these days), so there's plenty of people out there talking about the books. Glad you at least check in We'll try to make this place a little more hopping for you. -----signature----- EV got me demoted, a winnar is him "you will quickly be known as the cool teacher. just be sure to start of the clas by explaining to all students they are to address you as the admiral." -- jedi_knight_birr

	I have an idea, but it might be a bit of a logistical head-ache. How about having a store of fan-made content, much like SWRPG Network. I don't want to step on Moridin's toes but It would be nice if we could organise the stats that people here went to a lot of work to put together rather than have them disappear onto pages of locked threads. -----signature----- Excellence - "'Cause some American-accent informed me Kun is Koon and Yun is Yoon doesn't mean I'm going to Megazord myself into robotic obediance."

	which stats? Sorry, just trying to make sure I understand. People have posted builds for everything from SW characters to builds for characters from movies, cartoons, and tv shows. -----signature----- Create happy mediums: Free prozac to all psychics & Jedi I'm met 6yo adults and 36yo children Still working toward Ni-Kyu Go Ju Ryu

	Yeah, could you give a little more info about what you're talking about? Are you thinking just a thread gathering these things, a whole separate site, focusing on just SW stuff, other genres? -----signature----- EV got me demoted, a winnar is him "you will quickly be known as the cool teacher. just be sure to start of the clas by explaining to all students they are to address you as the admiral." -- jedi_knight_birr

	I'm pretty sure (correct me if I'm wrong) he means people can just post fan-made stats for vehicles, ships, droids, characters, etc. from Star Wars lore. I don't know how we'd store that, in a single thread, or a forum or a website.... -----signature----- "You look so tiny down there... like a little mean pepper shaker" - Palpatine to Darth Vader "I gotta say Boba this is one beauty of a ship... not crazy about the name though" - Lando to Boba Fett

	I'm always game for new reading material. We have a thread for low-level characters, and one for adventure ideas. A thread for monsters/beasts might not be bad. Also one for starships could be good. Getting pictures up as well could be a hosting problem. Somewhere there used to be a thread for non-sw characters where I put Blakes7 and such, but would also be handy for anyone else building any character inspired by non-sw sources (wolverine, superman, etc) -----signature----- Create happy mediums: Free prozac to all psychics & Jedi I'm met 6yo adults and 36yo children Still working toward Ni-Kyu Go Ju Ryu

	I could host pictures if people email me them.

	How about if we did a thread for each one: Gear (weapons/armour/supplies), Vehicles (starship/ground/air), People & Droids (random characters and canon characters not covered by the sourcebooks), then fears, force powers and so on. -----signature----- "You look so tiny down there... like a little mean pepper shaker" - Palpatine to Darth Vader "I gotta say Boba this is one beauty of a ship... not crazy about the name though" - Lando to Boba Fett

	Rogue_Thunder has the idea; As RPG-ers we have to have some sort of creativity, but this isn't really being shared on this forum right now. The social thread is the busiest thread pretty much, very little that's created for the benefit of the game is being talked about. -----signature----- Excellence - "'Cause some American-accent informed me Kun is Koon and Yun is Yoon doesn't mean I'm going to Megazord myself into robotic obediance."

	Rogue_Thunder posted: How about if we did a thread for each one: Gear (weapons/armour/supplies), Vehicles (starship/ground/air), People & Droids (random characters and canon characters not covered by the sourcebooks), then feats, force powers and so on. Now that I've got a bit more time to expand on my ideas, this (above) is generally what I meant. I think of the above thread suggestions, it's important the feats / force powers one doesn't grow to the dereliction of the house rules thread which already exists. The thing to remember also is that rather than just purely homebrewed stats, it'd be advantageous to have 'modified' item stats. How have your party pimped their ride? What weapon mod gave you the capability of taking out the crime lord who killed your characters' family? -----signature----- Excellence - "'Cause some American-accent informed me Kun is Koon and Yun is Yoon doesn't mean I'm going to Megazord myself into robotic obediance."

	So now that we're all on the same page, what are the chances that we can create the threads and have them stickied? That way they're all together and easy to find, and we're only talking about 4 or 5 threads tops, and the Lit forum has more stickies than that at any given time. -----signature----- "You look so tiny down there... like a little mean pepper shaker" - Palpatine to Darth Vader "I gotta say Boba this is one beauty of a ship... not crazy about the name though" - Lando to Boba Fett

	Personally I don't like having more than one or two threads stickied in a forum. But we could create an index listing all of them and put it in one sticky. That would just leave us with two stickies. Forum will look neater and we could use the index for other threads too. -----signature----- EV got me demoted, a winnar is him "you will quickly be known as the cool teacher. just be sure to start of the clas by explaining to all students they are to address you as the admiral." -- jedi_knight_birr
