[SWRPG] Conversions

Post by Iceberg »

Does anybody have conversions from WOTC SW to WEG SW? I'm especially looking for conversion for Starships of the Galaxy.

I like to help but I don't play RPG's. What do you mean by conversions?

Can't help you there, sorry. But I always take the RPG stats with a grain of salt so to speak.

He's talking about converting the WOTC RPG stats into WEG RPG stats, the two versions of the game use completely different systems. The WOTC game is built around their d20 system while the WEG version is built around a d6 system. Anyway I think both the original and revised core rulebooks have conversion factors but I'd have to double check...get back to you on that one Mark?

My advice? Don't bother. The D20 space combat system was, even by WOTC proponents, recognized as a ludicrous venture. In it, an ISD could easily destroy another ISD in a single broadside, and a pair of binders have more strength than an X-Wing's armor.
