GM Questions

Can we go to the mixer but forgo rolling?

[Zimrzala Skalirz]

Oh also - the event has no rules for Triumph and Despair - I've seen some around already (and I've rolled one in the one Part 1 attempt I've succeeded in, just not posted yet ), so should there be any specific rules for those? Or are they gonna be handled on a case-by-case basis?

Cheers!

Assuming whatever it is won't have room for a utility arm, and definitely no weapons?

I'll second the question about weapons. I'm guessing imperial officers get to wear their sidearms, but would civilians be allowed to open carry, concealed carry, or "Just don't, cuz they're gonna scan you before you go in"?

What about armor?

It's a social event with drinks and chatting. If you show up with anything that isn't your fanciest suit/dress you'll be barred entry.

Some folks carry, as suggested by Korvin but they're special exceptions to the rule or they've bribed/hidden their weapons. Though they generally have the influence to get away with it. No PC makes that influence requirement here, unfortunately.

For the event, the difficulties set for rounds 2 and 3 total up to five.

The example given is a Hard round 2 for an Average round 3.

Would it be possible to take a Formidable check in round 2 (5 difficulty) for a Simple in round 3 (0 difficulty)

It would!

No specific rules as affects you guys.

For the most part, you're just making the choices as declared: Who to talk to, and what to talk about, and then from there I'm handling all the rest through the results of the roll. So those Triumphs and Despairs will be part of what helps me decide on who/what you talk about and any information that might be had that's useful, or not!

That's kinda a word jumble but generally, I'll be tallying all the results of the last two rolls in my "building how your night went."

You may!

Just noticed I'm confused about something else about the Mixer event:

Part 3 reads: "These checks are made at a difficulty corresponding to 5 - the difficulty dice of the previous difficulty.
If you failed Step 1, this check is always Hard with Two Setbacks."

So... if you failed Step 1 for all three checks (or those you tried at least), you can still choose one of the options here and try at Hard with 2 Setbacks?
But if you fail step 2 you cannot try it - is that it?

Or is this supposed to be "if you Failed step 2 you roll Hard with 2 Setbacks" instead? (So if you fail all checks in Step 1 you get nothing, but if you fail Step 2 for the contact you get in Step 1 you still have a shot, but at Hard with 2 Setbacks?)

Sorry, I should have also had that notice in Step 2. In general, if you don't know who you're talking to it's a Hard Check with Two Setbacks at base. That goes for Step 2 and Step 3.

Hm... I think I'm still a bit confused. Let me try to rethink and maybe reask later

[Meiyokashi]

Would Respected Scholar apply when dealing with Dr. Novar at the party?

Yes!

[Zimrzala Skalirz]

Ok, seeing some examples there I think I finally get it!

So regardless of how many times you pass in Step 1 you only get one try for Steps 2-3, yeah? And if you fail Step 1 your diff for Steps 2/3 are fixed at Hard+2 Setback?

And then, additionally - if you fail Step 2 you do NOT proceed to Step 3 as the contact refrains from talking to you further... Right?

Think I finally got it

[Meiyokashi]

All of that is correct, yes!


Yay

Actually, one correction I missed!

You do not fail out of the event even with a Failure on Step 2. Merely all the results are taken into consideration when I give you your results so you would still roll for Step 2 and 3 regardless.

[Zimrzala Skalirz]

Oh actually! Just noticed I got 0 successes and 1 Triumph. Does that still count as a fail for part 1?

Stupid me

[Meiyokashi]

Yes!

[Solork Tan]

Are there rules for crafting things at rarity levels above our cap?

More specifically, the Gank Comm Implant

https://star-wars-rpg-ffg.fandom.com/wi ... mm_Implant

[Meiyokashi]

No. Crafting that as well would be well out of the reach anyone currently in the campaign at least.

*thinking*

Would there happen to be any place on Bellionas that sells proper books (the old-fashioned kind)?

Asking for a friend. ^^;
