So, I guess GenCon goers have gotten their lucky mitts on the new Force & Destiny Beta. I tried to find some post about what's in it, but my search fu isn't strong enough.

So, what's in it? Careers? Species? Force Powers? I read some place about a new Morality mechanic?

Uh...It's only the longest thread on this page...

Go to the long thread called "thinking about the force and destiny beta" and do a search for Niman. That should get you about the place you wanna be.

There is a full thread about it, the thinking about Force and Destini beta. Thee from page 40 to the end there are lots of info, inckudkng a link to a file with 68 scanned pages frkm tne beta book.

Anywzy to answer your questions briefly: 6 careers and 18 specs all force sensitive. 6 of those careers are focused on the lightsaber combat. The morality is the new mechanic, it is based on the creatikn of conflict points through actions or the use of dark side pips, at the edn of the session a check determines if your morality increases or decreases based on the conflict score and a dice roll. Mora,ity starts at 50 and can go up to 100, over 70 youre a paragon and get increased strain, below 30 you're a dark sider and you get lower strain threshold and other problems but you can use dark side pips to fuel your power. You can redeem yourself but it is very hard, you need to get the morality above 70.

The careers are Consular,Guardian,Mystic,Seeker, Sentinel, Warrior. Rules exist for lightsaber use and modding, plus various types of lightsabers.

Thank you, folks. I noticed that huge thread after posting this. Nice to get a shorter version here, though.

Yeah, sorry for the dickish response...it was 4:15AM, and I did *not* want to be wide awake...

No worries, whafrog. I'm just too excited about Force and Destiny to be in any way offended. Your all good!
