Recruiting for a new AoR PbP group

By ShadoWarrior, in Star Wars: Age of Rebellion RPG

Prospective players do not have to be experienced in FFG's SWRPG (although it will make things go much faster if you do know this system), but I would prefer that if you're new to FFG that you at least have played d6 (WEG) or d20 (Saga) SWRPG. There are a total of six (6) player slots.

I have commitments from:

Recruiting is now closed.

The game will be set in the time frame 0.5-1ABY. None of the PCs will be Force-sensitive. Play will begin with the Beginner adventure Takeover at Whisper Base, progress to Operation: Shadowpoint, followed by Onslaught at Arda. This sequence will advance the characters to roughly "knight-level" before I throw custom adventures of my own creation at the players.

Once all available player slots are filled, character creation and gaming will take place at Friends and Nemeses.

I'm very interested in your AOR play-by-post game. I'm comfortable with AOR/EOTE but I can't seem to keep a local group together, so playing online seems pretty appealing. I haven't done a play-by-post in many years though, but I'll get into the swing of that quickly. What kind of characters are you looking for?

Roles:

  • Face - Presence; Charm + Negotiation
  • Tech - Intellect; Computers + Mechanics
  • Rogue - Cunning; Skulduggery
  • Medic - Intellect; Medicine
  • Ace Pilot - Agility; Piloting (Space)
  • Close-combat - Brawl; Melee
  • Gunner - Agility; Gunnery + Ranged (Heavy)

Hello there.

Hello there.

Is that your way of saying that you'd like to play in this game and reminding me that you are on my waiting list?

It would, yes. Trying for humor.

I'll bite. I can play any role except Face, I have too many face characters right now. I'll probably be a droid or a hutt though.

Edit: Do you want us to use just AoR careers, or are EotE careers open as well?

I was hoping to play an Engineer (Saboteur), which sort of blends the tech and rogue roles, but I'm open to looking at other things. I don't have a particular species in mind yet, but probably nothing too weird - I like humans and humanoids without a lot of crazy oddities (ie - I won't be looking at a Toydarian, a Hutt, a Chevin, a Droid, etc).

Are you opposed to people who have ran through those adventures already?

Trying for humor.

Humor is good. Usually.

Edit: Do you want us to use just AoR careers, or are EotE careers open as well?

EotE careers and gear are okay.

Are you opposed to people who have ran through those adventures already?

No, so long as players can separate what they know from what their characters know. I crack down quickly and strongly on players acting on knowledge that their characters don't have.

In that case, I think I'd like to throw my hat in the ring for a Rodian Zabrak some species of pilot

I'm starting to find myself partial to the Melee Character myself. Probably as Bounty Hunter: Gadgeteer (even if it means I have to out-of-spec my Melee). Spy:Infiltrator just doesn't seem to have the right skills, and bodyguard had to much heavy gunner...

But I can still do others if someone else want to take the Melee slot.

Welcome to slot #5.

I was thinking of a Nikto Commando, myself, but I can always go to another concept if you want that one.

Oh, no, Please - take the Melee slot, I'll go with Medic and a touch of Rogue instead. :)

Edit: Maybe like this.

Much obliged.

I am available ! I would be interested in playing the Ace Pilot.

I believe What already called for pilot.

Edited by Quicksilver

I am deff. open to giving up the pilot slot. I had a smuggler pilot (assuming that was ok) half built to kind of overlap both face and rogue as secondary abilities, but...

Which leaves:

Face

Gunner

Pilot

Meynolt, if you're set on pilot, we could easily combine to be a pilot/gunner team (Any maybe even convince Dr Lucky to make it an astromech...)

Alternatively, I would absolutely love to play a Kaminoan medic with Human or some other species as a "counts as."

I will clone you all! :ph34r:

Edit: For some reason I had Quicksilver as a tech primary, not medic! I'm kinda faced out, since that's my go to and will still probably show up as a secondary or even tertiary skill investment, but I'm ok with the pilot/gunner team.

Edited by What

Yeah, I'm not settled on the Rogue part. Of course, if you want, What, I'm glad to hand over Medic (a kaminoan would be pretty cool.). It wouldn't be hard to talk me into an Astromech or a Ship's gunner. Just as long as I don't end up with Face.

This group is entirely too accommodating. :P

This group is entirely too accommodating. :P

It's also still short one player. {sigh}

Just making sure you saw that!

This group is entirely too accommodating. :P

I've been gaming for about twenty five years, trust me, this is better than the alternative.
