Back in a Game! StarWars RPG. Troopers.

Well, I'm back in a campaign. It'll just be for the Summer but (as yer man in the Amstel Troy ad says:) this is gonna be great.

The background of the game that I know so far is that all the group are troopers stationed out in a remote outpost on the fringe of the galaxy. We work away and do our duties all the while we stargaze thinking of our career prospects, how we ended up on this assignment, how we'd rather be on Alderaan with all the fancy (but expensive) chicks there, why the empire never really sends us any orders other than our original ones to patrol the area... you get the idea.

The only problem is that it is four years after the fall of the EMPIRE. Yep you heard me, we're kinda stationed in the backwater outpost that everyone forgot.

Ah, this can only lead to hilarious consequences. I've already mentioned that I wanna be a henchman type character. I'm gonna be one of those oldish types who is set in his ways (you know like how peter parkers uncle was in the first Spiderman Film). Except, I'll be a slightly grumpy auld soldier (the like of that nasty german who kills one of the americans with a knife in hand to hand combat in Saving Private Ryan). Oh yes, you've got that right, I'll have some serious five o clock shadow at around 11am every mornin!

I now anxiously await character creation day so I can see how to play around with the stats. As for the other bits, like skills, I'll probably be looking for reasonable statics with a close range blaster (Clint baby YEAH!) and general survival and mercenary stuff.

More on this, Later!
