No Distintegrations

By Kyla, in Star Wars: Edge of the Empire RPG

So excited for this! My current game is on hiatus waiting for this, soon we can start anew!

I'm very excited from the GM side about tips and tricks for a Investigation campaign, and of course, the X-Wing fangirl in me is excited for the Fang, Aggressor, and 666 to round out the Jumpmaster and Firespray. Of course there's the signature abilities and new careers. The Armor modifications will be neat to see as well.

What is everyone else interested in/hoping for?

I think that is the easiest book title to guess yet.

Is there a news article I'm not seeing somewhere?

What is everyone else interested in/hoping for?

I have a few ideas..............

No Disintegrations: Shouldn't have doubted it.

Operator: something like Gunner with Overwhelm Defenses and Debilitating Shot. The only specialization revealed.

Always Get My Mark signature ability.

If you’re on the same planet as the person you’re looking for, have two Destiny Points to spare and can pass a hard Streetwise check, you’ll instantly find him. Even more, the Game Master then launches a new encounter beginning when you reach his location.

Mentions the Aggressor assault fighter and the YV-666 freighter as vehicles.

New gear mentions:

arm-mounted micro-rockets, rocket boots, precision rifles, inexpensive homing beacons, poisons, and even a holographic disguise matrix for when you want to meet face-to-face with someone, but avoid revealing your actual appearance

Also:

The book also goes in-depth on the type of adventure Bounty Hunters are best suited for: investigations.

Your font and color make your posts unbelievably hard to read...

Switch back to the old Dark theme :D

I am on the old dark theme...

*twitch* *twitch*

The fact that they only revealed ONE of the specs and ONE of the Signature Abilities is really, really, REALLY bugging my OCD. Like, you guys have no idea. All or nothing, please, I'm begging you! I'd be okay with not knowing any of the names of the new mechanics, but giving out a partial, COME ON! *twitch twitch*

That side, though: Cool story, bro! Can't wait! :D

I wanted the book's title to be He's Holding a Thermal Detonatorrrrr (Wave Your Arms Effetely) but that probably wouldn't fit on the spine.

Yeah, this one was pretty light as far as announcement articles go. "It exists; here's, like, two things you'll be getting."

Is telling people the names of what they're getting really so bad?

Marketing 101: Tease your customer base with sparse details to get them excited about purchasing your product.

I am a little surprised that there was doubt they'd go with the obvious choice of title. :)

I was almost expecting Rigger to be in this book, but it sounds like Operator fills that role.

I'm thrilled to finally be getting this book, but part of me is now worrying if EotE is now complete... :(

Why worry about that? I can't wait for all three lines to be complete so we can get "Big Book of Starships" "Big Book of Equipment" "Big Book of Aliens and Critters" etc. I'm tired of having to look through 50 books to find what i'm looking for.

Not complete. At least 1 more region book and probably an adventure. Also i believe Abso also loves listed a couple mystery items with produxt numbers and no product Assigned.

I see that as unlikely. I find oggdudes char gen solves this

Given some of the delays that were likely beyond FFGs control I can see why they'd spread product details over multiple announcements.

I'm already excited!!!! I would be honored for this book to join us.

I wonder what species will be coming with this one. They better be good ones! Also, yes, new ships and weapons will be awesome.

But what I most want to see.....probably the specializations and new weapons.

Do we have EE-3 Carbine stats already?

And I would LOOOVE to see stats for a Verpine slugthrower.

I'd love to see some rules for bounty hunters legally using restricted equipment and appropriate licenses for bounty hunting.

That would be interesting. I was never exactly sure if everyone even bothered with such licenses, TBH.

EDIT:

I just went back and looked at the article. Aggressor? OH YEAH!!

What if the other two specs were the other two subject titles within the article? : Sharpshooter and Investigator?

Well, at least we won't have people complaining about when FFG is going to get around to publishing the Bounty Hunter book.

I know the article says "fourth quarter," but the Endless Vigil was teased for third quarter, and September's just about wrapped up. I'm more inclined to think we'll see ND in January than in time for Christmas as some folks are undoubtedly hoping.

Also going to guess that Zabraks will be introduced to EotE, at least if the piece of artwork showing a couple of Zabraks is anything to go by.
