META: House Rules

in META

Falling to the Dark Side continues to mean that, at the end of the scene, the GM will take custody of the character (and their sheet), to the detriment of the remaining adventurers.   But not every rule in the original system applies as originally intended.   Furthermore, our group has a knack for finding scenarios that the rules never covered.   Herein will lie our variants: The Cool Rule. The Rule of Maximum Dreck. Funds. Rewrites of some Force Powers. What you can get for which kind of bribe to the GM.   Why you really shouldn't rely too hard on VNY'S Notes to be the whole truth....

  • Tapani Imperium
Star Wars: Shards is a work of pure, unabashed fiction. In fact, it considers itself rather heroic, noble, and quite proud of itself.   The opinions expressed on the in-world pages or within quotation boxes are those of the characters and should not be confused with either of the authors, since the characters and authors tend to disagree a lot. But … This is the Way.   Names of characters, places, events, organizations and locations are all creations of the authors' imaginations for this fictitious setting, except where credit is given to the sources of inspiration. Any resemblance to persons living, dead, or reanimated is coincidental.   Star Wars TM & © Lucasfilm Ltd. Tapani Sector created by West End Games for Lucasfilm, and used in homage only.
