Star Wars RPG? (group gaming!)

Hey folks, t'is me, the elusive Lazuka. xD

Anywho, lately I've been pondering something. I got my brother this very cool looking RPG book about the Force Unleashed. I read through it yesterday, and fell in love with the idea. I mean, more than normal. I did some background checking, and have ordered the main book I need from amazon. Ultimately, since it's made by Wizards, it's a lot like D&D, just, Star Warsy.

If anybody feigns interest, or better yet actual interest, I may want to start something up with you folks. So, I've posted it here to ask for thoughts and comments on whether or not it'd be a good idea or a total waste o' time. I expect different opinions, but comments are most welcome!

I've been itching to have a go at a D&D game ever since I saw Unforgotten Realms. I'm sure it'll be fun.

Hoorah! The book arrived. All is well in the universe. Now to get reading this bad boy and understanding how a GM does his/her job

Perhaps this should go in the tabletop part of the forum, we have a DnD thread there and are currently in the process of setting up a second Campaign group

Hmm....star wars huh, might be worth a look

Well, if it can be shifted over that'd be great. And aye, Star Wars... Interesting, if complicated read.

I call shotgun on the misunderstood bounty hunter.

Only if I can be the moody GM.

There should be no 'save the clonetrooper pinned down' missions and we get to pick up Darth Maul's lightsaber along the way.

That's entirely up to you... Personally, I'd let the Clone die and get the job at hand done... And as for that lightsaber, it is possible. Who knows what happened to it?!

Anyway, I'm going to get some planning done...

Alrighty. I must warn, though, that if there is to be calculations of damages and exp and stuff, then I'm bringing my calculator. I cannot do maths. Ignore the A level in maths I got, I cannot do maths. I even embarassed myself during my SPF meeting by taking minutes to work out how many hours of work I do a week.

Personally, I think that idea is a good one. Luckily, it's mostly dice rolls and you have to get higher than your opponent's. But, it could be handy for designing a character. Plenty of modifiers to keep one happy. Also, as far as I'm aware there is no meeting today, so I'll be using the week to get a little story set up
