Now you see me

Might be a stupid question, but how do I roll vigilance?

It's Willpower + Vigilance skill. I don't see Vigilance on your sheet, so it would be two green dice for your Willpower stat.

this doesn't seem right

Oops, Sorry, from the dropdown after 'Add new roll:' you pick the Star Wars FFG and then at the end of the Roll box there's a + that shows you the colors of the dice, click on the green one 2 times.

oh. Guess I'm a little blind there.

I like the setback or Life or Death. But yeah, would have been an easy check. So pass two Advantage to the next Character and anyone doing what Creds suggested won't need to roll, since he did the thinking and shared a plan.

ChrSch -- not the GM, of course, but I'm sure if you describe what you want to do, Esidrix (and the rest of us) can suggest what to roll and when.

In a scene like this, where we have a turn order, and every little move counts, you get one action and one maneuver per turn. A maneuver is something like drawing a weapon, aiming a weapon, moving a short distance, opening a door, taking cover in the tree roots, etc. An action is anything that requires a roll and a few random things that come from your Talents if you have them. You can always trade your action for a second maneuver if you want (so if you need to pick up your blaster and run, say. Or you can do action + free maneuver + extra maneuver by taking 2 strain.

In your case, it looks like you moved to a tree (maneuver) and took cover in the roots (maneuver). If you also wanted to do an action, like firing on the creatures, you would need to suffer 2 strain.

Does that make sense?

Also, Savagebob is an experienced player and GM with this system, so he had an idea of what made sense. But as he mentioned you can always ask, "Is there something I can roll to get an idea, understand the situation, etc." I'm more than happy to pull up your character and offer a couple examples on what skills would help you out.

alrighty, I'll be keeping that in mind :)
Thanks for the patience @all
