Iron Age Super Heroes

By damiller, in Star Wars: Force and Destiny RPG

Just wanted to share that I ran a one shot for my group using FFG Star Wars as the Vehicle for an Iron Age Super Heroes game (ala Watchman, Dark Knight Returns) using the archetypes of Daredevil (Sentinel: Sentry), Iron Fist (BH: Marital Artist), and Punisher (HG: Mercenary for Hire). It was a blast!

I altered a couple of things to give it a grimmer feel:

Weapon Crit ratings were 2 less than listed (minimum of 1)
Activating/Using Weapon Qualities cost 1 less than listed (minimum of 1)

I didn't think about Healing, but we didn't have much opportunity , though when I run it again I will for sure alter the Healing/Wound rules to reflect the sensabilities of Iron Age comics. Though in the game we did have one of the PCs get the Crit "On the Brink" that was fun.

That sounds awesome! I love reading how folks have modified this system into other genres.
