2P51 33,591 Posted February 6, 2015 My character is a Scoundrel so I've been eagerly waiting. In regards to BH my guesses were/are.. Skip Tracer/Repo Trapper Private Eye Privateer 2 GM Hooly and miishelle reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RogueCorona 1,044 Posted February 6, 2015 I would love for the last one to be in the book. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miishelle 377 Posted February 6, 2015 skip tracer/repo? what does that mean? like a tow truck driver? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DanteRotterdam 3,941 Posted February 6, 2015 I've been saying Repoman for a while now and the more I think about it the more I like the idea. With all the stealing of ships going on this seems like a natural. I think a private detective / journalist (hunting for scoops) could be a good career and the skiptracer is what I came up with earlier but had no idea what it was called Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miishelle 377 Posted February 6, 2015 duel purpose it wish a shipjacker, and it should be in fly casual. or the techie book Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DanteRotterdam 3,941 Posted February 6, 2015 I think the tech book will have a biotechnician, an inventor and a shipwright. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miishelle 377 Posted February 6, 2015 (edited) and Gilligan, and the skipper too. how about the millionaire and his wife. the professor and Mary Anne. here in the tech book this is what happens with miishelle at 4 am Edited February 6, 2015 by miishelle 2 Maelora and Richardbuxton reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Atraangelis 301 Posted February 6, 2015 I would like to see a Coreworlds source book , I know corellia is pretty close but... Or a corporate book, or a book about the Area around Tattoine. 1 miishelle reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kaosoe 7,583 Posted February 6, 2015 I've been wanting the Technician book the most. Outlaw tech is my favorite spec form EotE and I'm hoping there's rules for inventing gear and items. 2 dougansf and miishelle reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HappyDaze 10,145 Posted February 6, 2015 Outlaw Tech is awesome on flavor and has a nice variety of talents. I do think it needs a bit more rules coverage on inventions/building/modifying to really shine though. 2 miishelle and kaosoe reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shadeleader 328 Posted February 6, 2015 I think the tech book will have a biotechnician, an inventor and a shipwright. I'm thinking that, instead of shipwright, it could end up re-using the Rigger. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Outlaw Tech is awesome on flavor and has a nice variety of talents. I do think it needs a bit more rules coverage on inventions/building/modifying to really shine though. Inventing in RPGs is a nightmare, especially in a setting that is practically the poster child for Space Age Stasis. I don't think it's a good idea to get your hopes too high for any sort of "build your own invention" rules in the Tech book. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2P51 33,591 Posted February 6, 2015 skip tracer/repo? what does that mean? like a tow truck driver? Yes, but not a tow truck driver. A person's whose job it is to recover stuff, not people. Private investigator is pretty straightforward, someone paid to recover information. A trapper, someone paid to get live targets. A privateer, ship based and acting on things Like letters of Marque http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Letter_of_marque 1 miishelle reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think it's a good idea to get your hopes too high for any sort of "build your own invention" rules in the Tech book. Maybe. But the other auxiliary rules released so far have been pretty good. After seeing how well done homesteads were done in Far Horizons (something I didn't think would interest me at all. Glad I was wrong), I know they got the talent to pull it off if they want. Edited February 6, 2015 by kaosoe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mitrokhin 40 Posted February 10, 2015 Upcoming page has been updated to Shipping Now. Expected arrival date 20 Feb. This is turning out to be a good month for supplements as my group of exceptionally lucky highly skilled criminals finishes up Beyond the Rim and may start more smuggling in Hutt Space! Assuming they don't do something foolish like join the Rebellion... 1 JRRP reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2P51 33,591 Posted February 11, 2015 Good stuff. As to being quick, FFG probably posts shipping with time spent in port included. We all got lucky, probably port of LA wasn't a total traffic jam as usual and FFGs stuff came through quick. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Desslok 13,575 Posted February 11, 2015 Considering that all ports on the west coast is shutting down for the weekend, we got very lucky indeed. 2 Iosuah and kaosoe reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2P51 33,591 Posted February 11, 2015 Considering that all ports on the west coast is shutting down for the weekend, we got very lucky indeed. Yup. I ordered my car online and it shipped from Japan. This was a few years back. It had a link that I could track it as it traveled from Nippon to America. It sat in LA for 3 weeks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RogueCorona 1,044 Posted February 11, 2015 Figures they start releasing books faster when I'm short on money. Still good news though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeadBothanSpy 146 Posted February 11, 2015 Wow, two books released two weeks apart? That's crazy! Maybe if they announce the next splatbook it can hit stores before St. Patrick's Day. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Utsanomiko 171 Posted February 11, 2015 Any last bets on the species before another preview goes live? It's been discussed before but I'm putting my money down on Gotal and Falleen simply for lack of any hints beyond the artwork so far. A classic race and a 'pretty' race. Third one is going to be Cha'wen'he. I have my sources. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
