Star Wars FFG - Fly Casual!

Hey! I'm starting a light-hearted casual game designed more for newcomers to the system.  Schedule : 10 AM Saturdays PST  Experience Required : None - preferably relatively new but it's not mandatory Ruleset : Edge of the Empire Core Ruleset, Age of Rebellion Core Ruleset, Force and Destiny Core Ruleset Timeline : The Great Emperor has just dissolved the Galactic Senate, in preparation of utilizing the Death Star.  Focus : The focus of the campaign will be on character development and obviously furthering the cause of the Rebellion (maybe? if the characters stick with the Rebellion) and creating genuine friendships within the gaming group. We're going to be sticking as close to the rules as possible but honestly if it's getting in the way of a good time I'm just gonna decide on something to make the game smoother.  Lore : Whatever I want. I'm the GM so I can guarantee it's not going to be 100% canon ( If you're counting on Luke, Han, and Leia to show up and help don't hold your breath) but I'll be taking things I enjoyed from Legends and obviously Canon material to make a good story and lore. I don't expect you to know anything more than Star Wars has lazer warriors with magical mind powers, spaceships and big furry boiz.  Material Required : None. If you don't have the Core Ruleset I don't mind. Our first session is going to be character creation and I have all the books (physically, but you'll have your character sheet with all your stats and effects on the game).  What I Need From You :  Just a personal introduction and what you're expecting from the game. Also, what you generally want to play or the background of a potential character you're interested in making. Oh! Also, if you have the materials or not. Like I stated before, if you don't that's fine. Just want to know what to expect.  Additional Note : I'm imagining most players will be well over 18 but honestly it doesn't really matter. If you're not prepared to have every person disagree with your political or religious views then don't bring them up. Such is the nature of having independent thoughts. If you don't get along with others don't bother coming in because this is more about having a good time in Star Wars with each other than "gitting gud"  Edit - My wife said I came off as aggressive sometimes so I changed some language :)

As for background, I'd like to play a character that's proficient in intelligence/surveillance skills.  I want to be the eyes and ears of the party, and to gather information that will assist the groups endeavors.  Whether that will be via computer skills, sneaking around, or other alternative skills depends a bit on the games theme and background. If you're interested in knowing anything else about me or my character concept, feel free to ask.

Hi, i'm Jack. I'm a 22-year-old Brit/American. And I've just recently left University where I have made several great friends through DnD.  I've been playing DnD for the better part of a year now. I'm looking for a new group to join to make new story's and friends. I've been a massive Star Wars Fan since I was just a kid thanks to video games like Kotor II, Star Wars Jedi Knight and Star Wars Battlefront II. I always love to have a bit of light humour in my DnD Games (nothing too serious). Let's just say i'm not expecting a star wars DnD game to be as dark or gritty as The Walking Dead or Game of Thrones. I've never played any of the core FFG modules and I don't have them, but I can get them. I just want to play a session or two before I commit over £100 on 3 core rulebooks. I'm not really too sure about my character because I don't really know the game. But maybe something like a loveable rogue or a hardline soldier gunt. I'm open to any ideas really and I'd love to have a session 0 so we can flush out our characters better (and so I could get a better grip on the game itself).

Hey there! Im Logan K., 24 years old, long time TTRPG player of many systems, though have yet to try out the FFG System (Though ive been eager to!). As for Star Wars knowledge, ive seen the movies, played some games, and read 1 or 2 books, but im far from super knowledgeable about all things galactic. I enjoy casual, fun games with a lot of character development and interaction, with of course bits of intense drama sprinkled in! I have a bunch of the books, including supplements that ive skimmed through but havent had a chance to actually play. Character wise, I think id lean towards a more supportive modder/mechanic sort of role, or perhaps a pilot/driver. Something techy for sure!
