    I guess I'm in the minority, but I really liked NJO and the Yuuzhan Vong. I think what they did to the galaxy was exactly the kind of shake-up needed to give us even more awesome stuff like Legacy of the Force and the Legacy comics.

    You are not alone. I liked YV and LotF too. The problem with YV was that the series was much too long.

    Using the force die to represent biotic powers, each power will require a number of certain coloured pips to use.  So a barrier may require 3 white pips to activate a feature whereas a lift might require 2 black, etc.  The force die represents how element zero works.  Positive/negative current equals more/less mass, etc.  As a biotic becomes more powerful they will roll more dice.  There will also be some strain cost for some powers to represent the extra body energy required.  ie, biotics have a higher caloric need than most soldiers. 

     

    What do you say for this: the player rolls the Force die, white pips allows to activate a feature whereas dark pips allows to activate a feature too, but the character suffers strain as he is not trained well enough and the biotics become a burden for his organism? The more rating he has, the bigger chance he will have a white pips and can use biotics without strain. When he rolls both black and white pips he can choose which use and which not...or maybe he needs all of them.

    I convert NPC this way:

    1) Attribute dice number is EotE attribute value, round up for +2 pips. Use common sense when dealing with Tech and Mech.

    2) Skill ranks: 2-3D = 1, 4-5D = 2, 6-7D = 3, 8-9D = 4, 10+D = 5, npcs have skills exactly like in d6, dont waste time to make them like EotE.

    3) One or two special npc talents like adversary or command.

    I was thinking about it, orginally I wanted to create a new skill, but then I started to understand that in this system one skill can be used for completely different purposes. Mechanics is alrady IMO overloaded with possibilities, so I have chosen a Cool skill, as you have to keep your nerves when playing with that stuff.

     

    The attribute will be Intelligence. The skill depends on the kind of explosives:

    - Setting an explosive - Cool (cause it is easier to set something then to disarm IMO)

    - Disarming an explosive - Computers (electronic clock or something) or Coordination (some cables to cut), but you could also use Cool for everything.
