Beginner and GM Kit Adventure Questions

By Ultraman, in Star Wars: Force and Destiny RPG

Hey Team!

I've come across a bit of a question while prepping for adventures with my new group:

In the Beginner Game it is mentioned that Mount Tellec has a 'curious crystal of uncertain significance' (pg 28) to be collected.

Also in the GM Kit game, the Rubat crystals aren't given any stats.

Is this deliberately left vague to allow us to award players with a random (or tailored) lightsaber crystal reward?

Not sure about the crystals on Mount Tellec (though I'd still stick with garden variety Illum, as it's the "starter" crystal around these parts), but the GM Kit adventure is very specific that Rubat crystals be treated like Illum crystals. Annoyingly, I don't have it the adventure close at hand, but I'm sure others here can provide a quote. Or I can, later.

Yeah, for the GM Kit adventure, rubat crystals are spelled out as being identical stat-wise to the Ilum crystal as described in the core rulebook.

For the Beginner Box adventure, it'd probably be the same, but then the basic lightsabers in that don't have any options to be modified, so the type of crystal used is largely irrelevant; it'd be a case of "find suitable crystals, build a basic lightsaber, carry on."

Same here. Though I never thought of it.
