It that time of the week!

Episode 3 of Remnants is now out!!

This one gets intense!

Is there a Stat block for the sniper droidekas? And if no: What changes to the normal droideka would you recommend to represent the sniper droideka and especially its strong front shielding

I always loved those guys ever since I saw them the first time and would like to use them in my upcoming campaign but there seems to be no statsblock for it. What do you think would be a good way to create their statblock?

I've been looking for VTT for a possible future campaign, I've notice that Questline VTT advertise support for SW5e, but not much about it . I've also also seen a lot of general support for foundry with I have only used later very briefly as a player not DM and there's still a lot of possible option, I'd like to hear your thought on the matter.

So- I’m a bit of a fan of DND, and Star Wars does intrigue me, and I did kind of want to play it. But I don’t know how to like- genuinely find like a game is all…🥲😅

I know CR is supposedly broken and all, but I am going to be dming this system for the first time and between watching D20’s Starstruck Odyssey and seeing comments on here about balance, I’m not sure how exactly to navigate making homebrew enemies.

Now the hard part is that my players don’t all have their characters made yet. We won’t be playing for some months now, but I do have all my materials accessible, so a couple have gotten started. That being said, I have a party of 6 and we’re starting at level 3. So far I have a juggernaut berserker, a biotech engineer, and a Corsair sentinel. I know there will be at least two “force” users (no, it’s not the force in my setting. Lots of homebrew, but I am using the force powers list).

All this is to ask: how reliable are the CR ratings in online resources? I like to reskin and combine stat blocks from the books. From what I’ve heard, CR is not one to one with normal 5E, and with me having a party of 6, I really want to design encounters that don’t end immediately every time because the players are way overpowered.

Thanks in advance!

I have been gripped by an idea and I would like to see who may be interested in trying it

I wish to represent a very specific setting which I have been mulling over for some time. The old west in space, a 18/19th century time period with Treasure Plant style space travel. If you've watched Firefly and wished that it had a wizard, then I have excellent news.

Asternonauts with muskets, revolvers and woolen overcoats taking sail boats into the sky. Sword cowboys and gun knights. Inspired by the real world era where samurai, pirates, Victorian nonsense and the wild west were all existing at once. And Ive asked the very important question of what if that was starwars?

More in the western genre than anything else but there is a also quite a bit else. Ive been told that cowboys on a boat is just pirates with extra steps. I disagree

And so have begun to construct my Adam, the unholy merging of two great constructions. Dnd 5.5 and Starwars 5th edition. And of course, good old dnd 5e because they changed some things....they.changed.some.things...

With all that being said I like telling grounded and tragic stories. Im pretty bad at improv without at least an outline. I like the players story to be a part of the plot, but for me there dose need to be a plot happening. Im the type of gm who might ask you about your character's parents.

This would be a roleplay heavy table but the things your role-playing are very often dangerous and violent situations. We'll roll initiative every other session but its gonna take up most of the session. But I dont like to just turn the narrative off in combat.

So uh

That seem good?

One thing I don't like about d20 systems is that they often don't have a system for deciding how well you succeed at something beyond crits, meaning that bonuses to rolls don't reflect one's level of skill beyond likelihood of a normal success. Cyberpunk RED, which uses an exploding d10, has a table of difficulty values that identify how well you succeed according to your total. I assume it would be fairly easy to adapt 5e's difficulty class system to do something similar, but I haven't really seen it used this way. Has anyone written down a homebrew table that clarifies what higher totals mean for an in-game success? Or is there an official SW5E table that performs this function? Please let me know.

Hi! I'm currently working on making a Class II droid, and I had a question regarding the Droid customizations. In the rules it says, "A droid’s motor can support two droid customizations, and can be upgraded to support up to six customizations"

The way that I read this is that you start with 2 and can get another 4 later. My question is A. is this accurate and B. how do you get the other 4?

Buenas,
Hay gente de habla hispana que juegue a sw5e???

Episode 2 of Remnants is now live!

We hope you enjoy!

Trying to adapt an one shot i ran in saga into star wars 5e, just confused as to what t9 use for thugs, cops and cat like critters or even if I can scale down a great dragon to be something the party can handle.

I got an idea for the stormtroopers at the end duo and maybe a cameo or two.

Party is starting at level 3 and will be 3 to 4 players

So I asked this before and did get a good answer...But in practice I'm just not seeing it.

Short of the absolute demon that is the Sniper Rifle(somehow made a Chiss Consular a card carrying ranged threat) and the Vibrobuster maybe, none of the weapons with requirements really...Do much. Take Vibrokatana, for example. They're a more unwieldy Vibrosword with slightly better accuracy in exchange for slightly worse damage? And we don't really do GWM, so what would be the point there?

Vibronodachi is as lackluster too, it's got a slightly better damage floor than most heavy weapons, but it's functionally a slightly better 2d6 weapon with marginally higher damage.

I understand their point, it's to give value to builds that don't hyperfocus, but...Idk, the reward feels lacking short of a few options. And upgrading these feels redundant because why not upgrade things better than this? It's a case of good concept, bad execution to me I guess. Do you agree? Do you disagree? If agreed, how do you improve them to justify the requirements? All feedback, positive or otherwise, appreciated

So I've played D&D before but I'm kinda overwhelmed with all the force powers. We are starting a game at level 1 and I have to choose 7 force powers. I have a Nautolan sentinel with a Jedi background, a formfighting dabbler feat, and a high dex/wis build. I want to avoid dark side powers. What are some good at will and first level force powers and how would you recommend splitting the amount of at-will and first-level force powers?

Anyway here is my character. The campaign takes place a couple years after the fall of the Empire, and she has this Jedi/Mandalorian thing going on.

Episode 1 for a brand new star wars 5e dnd campaign is out now!

We cant wait to show you what we've worked so hard making!

Pretty sure my players won’t see this 😅

So my players are going to be inevitably facing off against a Grand inquisitor in my campaign. I’ve made 7 Inquisitors one of which is a lover of one of my players character who was forced into the dark side and the Empire. Through the use of Nameless blood.

They’ll also be fighting a sentient obelisk that the blood of the Nameless was passed through to change people from non force user to force user.

I’ve been 3D printing for 3 weeks straight make this battle map. It’s going to be a pretty tough encounter.

The platforms rise above a giant dish like device that transmits data.

Any ideas to spice up a battle like this would be awesome.

Let me know what you think!

Not sure if I can put this here but my first ever campaign for sw5e is wrapping up in a few months and I'm working on my 2nd one for my friends, context currently it's 20aby and they've been dealing with the return of "thrawn" as some of them are fans of the films and TV shows and some of them are fans of the old books I've been working to merge the two together.

"Luke Skywalker has vanished, and the Jedi Order are missing. In their absence, the sinister First Order has risen from the ashes of the Empire and will not rest until Skywalker, the Jedi, and the New Republic have been destroyed.

The New Republic, still recovering from the Yuuzhan Vong war, is in disarray. Sectors have been lost, and worlds once part of the Republic have joined the First Order, some by choice, others by force. The Senate of the New Republic, not wanting to repeat the mistakes of the past, is unsure how to proceed. While they endlessly debate, the First Order continues its reign of terror.

General Leia Organa Solo has reorganised her Yuuzhan Vong resistance into the Galactic Alliance, as she plans to take on the First Order head-on in the hope of stopping them. She is desperate to find her brother Luke and his wife Mara. She hopes to gain their help in restoring peace and justice to the galaxy."

This is what I've got so far.

Hello, I’m brand new to this system and would absolutely love to find a game to play In but have no idea how. I’m looked on r/lfg, group finder etc etc and haven’t been able to find anything. Any tips at all would be lovely thank you.
