Well my first attempt died in flames.  I am tossing around three other ideas but unsure if they'll have much success.

Edge of the Empire idea would be a sort of Bounty Hunter/Special Forces group run by the Hutt Council.  Essentially they face threats to the Hutts as a whole and "try" to stay above the politics.  Much of this would be the characters acting as bounty hunters and doing some spy vs spy type things.

Age of Rebellion idea would be a fighter wing type situation.  Thinking the characters would serve as escorts at the start of the game, working their way toward a more specialized attack group that operates in space and on the ground.  Do have some ideas for a side project of the group but need to do more research into Clone Wars.

Force and Destiny idea would focus on the characters doing a lot of exploring and digging through old ruins.  Sort of an Indiana Jones style game or perhaps Tomb Raider with the characters trying to track down the history of Force user societies dead and current.  Thinking of a trip to the prison planet Belsavis and also some run-ins with the Night Sisters.

I like those latter two ideas. I'm not a fan of politicking, I'd much rather a combat oriented or exploration based game, personally. Veering more towards the Force and Destiny idea, just because I'm a biggy when it comes to Lore in any setting.

I'm still newish to the system though. Ideally I'd like to be able to roll my own dice and see how my rolls affects the game, to be able to learn the system better.

Saying all that though, I'm not OP... I just wanted to state more the sort of things I'd enjoy or want from a game.

So there is interest in Force and Destiny explorers.

Alright, so I'll start setting up a recruitment thread for the game.  Will be going with Force and Destiny as a base rule system.

My question is with those funky dice how do we roll?

The rolling process is a tough one.  So far I have used standard dice with a the conversion tables.

I'm still eager.

Pondering on a concept for muh character. Anyone have any thoughts of the kind of character they're going to playing yet?
