Character Creation and Discussion

[Garlen Veir]

Re: splitting starship duties, will the former Imperial trooper or anyone else also will be mechanically inclined?

I still want to claim the Merc template with a background of ex-Imperial trooper;and spend my extra points (dice) on I guess Mech and Tech?  To make him a land assault vehicvle driver (he drives tanks, at-art,s, at-st's etc).So he'd be a decent mech and pilot. I still am quite clueless about how character generation works. To be honest I will not have time to do any reading of the 1st edition rulebook until Monday (I work a 12 hour day tomorrow, and run aPathfinder game at a local store on Sunday. So yes i wnt him mechanically inclined (more mechanic than pilot. He'll make a good co-pilot/gunner on a spaceship, but be good with keeping vehicles combat ready, at least that's the role I want)

Okay i thought he was to be a pilot my bad.

Then lets try again then shall we
Repair tings is Tech attribute, driving things is mech so. Since he was in a vehcile witha a primary repair roll maby lower his Dex and and str as suggested, making him a little more like a wookei first mate template, more balanced but still combat capable.

DEX 3D
KNOW 3D
MECH 3D+1
Perc  2D
STR 3D
Tech 3D+2
Skills
Heavy weapons 4D, Walker op 4D, repulsorlift op 4D walker repair 4D, repulsorlift rep 4D dodge 4D, Blaster 4D + another 2D to others skills or to incease the skills he already has .
Suggestions
+1D to walker and repulsorlift repair
or
+1D to starship gunnery and byrocracy (got to fill out those forms before reparing)

This would be a resonably balanced template

Holy cow!!! Thanks! This is perfect.. I will do a little reading on Sunday and Mon day and pick the remaining skills and flesh out the background. is theer a character sheet available for d6 star wars on myth-weavers, or can I download one somewhere.
