    Jesus, what's your beef?

    - I think you make perfectly valid, defensible comments.

    - I think certain others make biased, indefensible comments.

    - Don't mistake me rhetorically calling out a prevailing trend as me arguing with you or anyone in particular.

    - I have zero problem with non-gamers discussing the books. You pretend I'm trying to control the conversation, but I've gone out of my way to make myself clear: I'm making an informed response to those who raise uninformed criticisms. You're not one of those people, so I have no opinion either way on your take on TIE Defenders or anything else, beyond "meh, yeah, OK."

    - I've done nothing but state my position and continue to respectfully defend it when addressed. At this point, it's you who is attacking me.

    Fantastic.

    Y'know, about the only thing really lacking with the old WEG overall was the artwork. It's been a joy that FFG's artwork has been consistently top-notch.

    Well, that why I said "overall". ;) But there was also a lot of generic art (moreso in the early material); FFG is almost always full of good art (but that's par for the course for FFG in general, one of the reasons I love them so).

    IIRC, there were some Tim Bradstreet illos too? Maybe not - he was omnipresent at the time, and I just assume all RPGs had some of his work.

    So, er, I'm about two years late to this particular party but I have this game (the core set, soon to be joined by the Smugglers and Spies expansion) and it's really really good.

    Coreworlder: -5 to interaction tests with individuals from outside the Inner Rim
    Thinks inside the box- -5 to perception when in wilderness settings
    Just another face in the crowd- treat crowds as open ground, and opponent's spot checks are -5 against you while in a group of 5 or more.

    Well the Human (Corellian) species is weaker than baseline humans, so one would imagine a ninny Coruscanti would be even weaker still.

    Pfft. Strength is for inferiors. You'd probably roll an Agamarian.
