The Mandalorian Season 2! [Spoilers]
penpenpen replied to P-47 Thunderbolt's topic in Star Wars: Edge of the Empire RPG
I'm not sure if we're watching the same show, because to me, this isn't something that's also in the show, it's what the show is all about. The rest is varying degrees of (excellent) filler, more or less. -
The Mandalorian Season 2! [Spoilers]

Stun setting! This episode must have been an reference to the classic The Wages of Fear! Made my heart skip a beat! I love the fact that this show is basically a barrage of well-executed clichés and homages from beginning to end. -

Would you, though? Between Peter Cushing and Carrie Fisher this franchise has more experience than most when it comes to post-mortem performances. -

Could be that "Gotra" is a third thing that both this guy and the Droid Gotra refers to. -

I re-watched it and watched closely for this. If you look at the acid attack when the dragon bursts from the top of the mountain, just before the "It's picking us off like womp rats!" line, you see at least one of the silhouettes of the sand people hit dissolving into what seems to be not much more than a puddle. It's subtle, and I too missed it at first, but yeah, it seems like they're nearly instantaneously dissolved. Of course, it's possible that the venom isn't the stomach acid, or even if it is, Mandy didn't end up all the way into the stomach of the thing. Meaning that what he was coated in was could've been a less concentrated solution of the stuff and/or just saliva or some other bodily fluid. On the other hand, it's just as likely that someone gets the bright idea to canonize that Mandy has a beskar-weave scarf based off this. 🙄 -

Cobb Vanth, the marshal, and how he obtained Fett's armor is from the Aftermath books. EDIT: Dammit, who ever heard of a Jegergryte that fast? Must be Instant (just add water!) Jegergryte! -
Encumbrance Houserule

...and this is what will kill it in practice. This house rule will only ever work at a table full of hardcore equipment list nerds (being a card carrying, bonafide, thoroughly vetted and peer reviewed E.L.N., it's not a pejorative when I say it ). Most players will duly jot down their starting gear accordingly, but three sessions in any semblance of order will be gone. I think it takes a very particular kind of group who are all very passionate about their characters' stuff to pull off rules like this. But I wish you the best of luck!
