I think you meant "can't reach out" but he's Long range is a **** of a tech to tickle someone.

I did indeed mean can't. I suspect you meant "reach" rather than teach as well. But it is indeed a **** long range to reach out.

I have (yet) another question for those with books, the Brawl talent Far Strike , does it have any range limits of is it just one range per pip , allowing for a weirdly entertaining sniper shot with a punch.

I imagine it more like a fireball, à la Street Fighter II . "Hadouken!"

I'm more inclined to say a "ki attack", ala Dragon Ball .

How many maneuvers do you have to spend grunting and sweating before it drops?

Any European players? My copy still isn't here :(

About 1 session...

The range on these Stands are incredible!

Farstrike has a maximum range of Long

Funny language at the end makes zero sense...

If the target is at medium range or longer you have to succeed at the attack and get enough force pips to meet the range requirement?

Also Broadsaber = Darksaber so if you want to make a darksaber like lightsaber you got the broadsaber....

My question is can you make either the greatsaber or the broadsaber have another plus 1 damage by adding the two handed upgrade? I have the book but nothing says that can't be done, but in the back of my head at least the greatsaber already seems to have that attachment.

That funny language is supposed to mention that the Difficulty of the attack changes with range, but as worded, it means nothing.

Where is this Admirer tree? I'm fascinated!

It focuses on the Performer for Obligation,,,you know, autograph hunting and selfie taking.. things like that. If the Performer is on the same planet the troupe have to go off to a gig etc

Every time I look at the pictures of the Colossus and the Juyo Berserker, I feel like they were accidentally switched. IMO, the angry and active Mikkian looks more like a model of a Juyo Berserker and the fairly static stance of the Dowutin seems more Colussus-y to me.

The way I see it as a GM is that attachments are suggestions for how to add specific bonuses to a piece of equipment. I don't think that EVERY attachment that could add a +1 damage to a lightsaber is ALWAYS the same. I let my group take whatever attachments they want and if anybody has a problem with multiple hilt modifications that seem not to make sense together, I just fiat and say the offending attachment is something else that adds the same bonus.

My special rule that I always make sure to explain is: whatever a player can get, an NPC can get. Often easier and maybe a bit better since they're supposed to be a challenge to overcome.

Does anyone have an Oggdude Character creator XML that includes these new trees?

It also has the Conflict talent Stalker which removes a setback on all chase checks and gives you a boost die to stealth and Coercion checks..

I wonder why they made the Hardened Comlink in KOF less effective than the Hardened Com in Dangerous Covenants.

The Taggeco Shockhold Hardened Comm in DC adds TWO Failures to decode checks and TWO Successes to break through a Jam while the KOF version only adds ONE each.

Ask them. It may be an error. I found a similar error in Fully Operational regarding the Autopilot droid brain.

The Camouflage netting is the same way with one reduced effect. I have a feeling we'll be seeing errata on one of the two books soon.

Errata perhaps, but soon... No, never soon.

could you reflect far strike? also would a short distance far strike still be a single purple attack?

Next week (UK at least) according to Asmodee New Releases.

Not per RAW , reflect lets you block dmg from energy weapons only, anything else is subject to GM approval , which is also mentioned (one of the devs described a picture showing a jedi "reflecting" a rocket and it was described as " narrative use of improved reflect". edit im quoting improved reflect, however reflect specifies ranged light, heavy or gunnery checks, so again no, nor can you reflect move.

Face it both Rian Johnson and JJ Abrams have both screwed up 7 and 8.. along with Disney!

Can't argue with that. Not because I would agree with you, but because I would talk myself into a killing spree.
For me, TLJ is better than even Empire, especially because it had to deal with that mystery box turd JJ left behind.

Cotorsis beats breach, And if you have Colossus and Armorer you can easily go 11-12 soak and if you activate Sense and the new Sig Ability good luck scoring hits or damage on them with 4 upgrades to the attack, I hope he's in close range when you Fire!

It's a vehicle weapon. Range is irrelevant. ?
Sil 2 vs Sil 1. Oh an average shot with 4 upgrades, so three reds. Trivial to hit, like most shots in the system.

Because Editors costs money and we buy the books regardless of the editing. :)
