Character Creation

I was split between little guy with a big gun and explosives 'expert'... I could easily redistribute if the Twi'Lek still has a hold on your imagination :-)

No it's honestly fine mate :) I'm thinking of some sort of Sharpshooter/Medic hybrid at the moment but we'll see how things shake out

Ok, I've gone completely in a different direction now and gone with a Gunslinger Thief lol Character sheet is here if anyone fancies a look, still need to work through his Duty and Motivation in addition to his equipment but the bare bones of the character is done

I went for a scrappy outlaw tech/mechanic whose got an appetite for serving it to the Imperials after they took his lfies work and destroyed everything else, leaving him with nothing except for a few things hidden in a secret compartment, including his modified blaster pistol. Im planning on buying the manuals for each ship we have to help assist repairs on our ships.

I'm leaning towards Squadron Leader now instead of Ace or Engineer, I think, but I'm still good with splitting a ship and being the pilot if you want to. There's only like one talent in Squadron Leader that actually has to do with personally shooting people anyways (Quick Strike), and that can be useful outside of the ship too. I think we'll both have enough to do in-ship. Otherwise, I'd probably just take an X-Wing :)

Also, for ship roll-call, it looks like we have an A-Wing for flug, an X-Wing for mcneils and a possibly a shared Y-Wing for Tookie & I? Not certain what Kzz'ix is flying or what Nox is thinking of though. And perhaps our most important question yet: what is our squadron name/callsigns?

Mynock Squadron? :-)

Although we're not really a Squadron are we? Something Force? Squad? Team? Cell?

B wing sorry I forgot to add that

Rathtarr Squad? Or, how about Blixus Squad? A Blixus has six tentacles, there are six of us...

Let's try it out... If it doesn't work I'll grab a couple ranks in Pilot and we can requisition x-wings.

Blixus Team abbreviates nicely... B Team, anyone?

Sounds like a plan. I wonder how callsigns work for multi-person ships? Would the ship collectively be referred to as "Red 5" or whatever, or would we be Reds 4 & 5 respectively, for example? And yeah, I like the sound of Blixus Squadron!

It makes more sense to me that the call sign would be assigned to the ship... But I have no idea.

Speaking of the ship... @DarthWash: can the creds that would've gone to a fighter be applied to the shared ship?

Yes you can use the credits to add attachments and/or weapons to your ships.

I might have missed this but are there any rarity limits to what we can buy?

Not at the moment. Once we start play it'll be like normal to aquire anything.

Bit late to the party sounds like we have a Smuggler Pilot, Ace Gunner, Smuggler Gunslinger, Technician Outlaw Tech, Commander Squadron leader? Shooting, flying, mechanical/computers, leadership/face seems covered. What do we need? Someone with med skills, sneakiness, and support type stuff?

If you can fit all of that into one character!

Finally finished my characters gear!

Actually looks like Skulduggery/stealth/computers are covered

So Tookie, what were you thinking in terms of ship mods? You mentioned an Advanced Targeting Array, which would fill up our remaining HP, did you have anything else in mind? We could potentially replace some of our weapons, but unless I'm overlooking something (I probably am), there isn't a ton else that we can do. If we do end up getting something, I'm happy to pitch in or just buy it completely; I'm still at 4550 creds, and I haven't bought anything for the ship yet :)
