The greatest single action you've had in an EotE session?

By jonamok, in Game Masters

In the Beginner Box, my droid character (somewhat metagaming, but I enjoyed it) hid in the bar, then when the Gamorreans entered, he asked me OOC "Everyone in the party speaks Shyriiwook, right?" So I said "Of course, Lowhhrick wouldn't be understood otherwise". He then calmly walked up to the Gamorreans with two stun grenades in his hand, screamed in Shyriiwook "CLOSE YOUR EYES, ORGANICS!" then detonated the Grenades. All of the Gamorreans hit the floor. I then said "So do you mate, surely?" His response? "No, I closed my photo- and aural-receptors, I'm a droid, I have that kind of time sensitive programming as standard." I was too awed by his ingenuity to argue.

The other time a player really amazed me was when they fought a Krayt Dragon. No-one was doing it much damage, but they were racking up Critical Hits, and it had just received the one that stops it performing actions (AFB, no idea of name). Then the mechanic Scored an insane acrobatics check to jump on it's back use the Quickflash Burning Gel to decapitate the Dragon while keeping the Skull and Pearls intact.

RP'ers, eh? Gotta love 'em!

Nice. Of course it begs the question of how they snagged themselves a rancor to airdrop in the first place?

A series of shenanigans involving using party members as bait, having the ship banged up by an angry rancor and modified tractor beam usage. Amusing, but not nearly as amusing as the end result. For awhile they were contemplating calling their next ship Rancor Rodeo in commemoration of that op.

In "Debts to Pay", we went after Lookout on Jetpacks. We reached the last Storm Barrier Generator before him, but since our blasters couldn't hope to penetrate the hull of his ship, my friend sniped Lookout through the cockpit viewport!

My players picked up a woman trapped in an escape pod. She was a human replica droid working for the black sun unknown to the group of course. The fringer who fancied himself as a smooth operator wanted to "get to know her". I kind of blew it off as unlikely but he was piloting an escape off a planet and rolled a triumph which he request it impressed her a lot and gave him a charm check. 2 yellow and a green with 4 reds and a purple. All of the good dice were successes while the bad were threat. Everyone laughed and no one wanted to use the escape pod on the ship after them. The negative threat was that during their time together he told her the entire party's dirty secrets during their pillow talk.

They found out later what she was and their was a collective "oh crap". I hadnt planned for black sun to be super involved in the campaign but that roll changed everything.

During the adventure in the core book my PCs come to the aide of the female rodian in the bar when the three hooligans show up to torment her. They approach, ask the gang to back down, and when blasters were drawn the leader of the PCs one shot the first goon with a stun blast, making the others run.

Wanting to get the goon back to the ship for interrogation once he woke up the PC leader asked for the party droid's help in carrying him by draping his arms over their shoulders. As they are passing through town the leader "casually" mentions to concerned passerbys "Don't mind my friend here. He got really drunk."

So the droid innocently and loudly asks "Was that before or after you shot him?"

Two of my PC's were on Raxus prime looking through old wreckage to find any salvage that might turn a profit. So, they come across this old republic vessel, inside they find a crate, they open the crate and inside are still some rather intact Old republic blasters that have withstood the test of time in the nicely sealed crate. So they get this crate and are moving it out on a hover pallet, as they are leaving the wreckage of the cruiser a Twi'lek and her goons come a long and ask and try to coerse for the crate.
The PC's manage to stay cool under pressure and try to talk it over one goes to make a deception check.. he succeeds triumphantly! So he explains to the woman "Well you see here miss this here is actually a box of Woolamander socks something they don't make anymore..it was exclusively made for republic military personel some thousands of years ago. Me and my friend have a bad case of 'Stygerrian foot fungus' which can only be worn with these here socks which we learned from our podiatrist.. but they stopped making them because it endagered the animal. See regular socks with this fungus allows it to thrive which we don't want. It's awful and itchy and burns fierce, you wanna peek?" Needless to say with that brilliant and hilarious trick they managed to get away with some antique guns to sale to a collector.
