Pittman's Star Wars Characters

[MilkmanOfDoom]

Hello! I have been playing GURPS 3rd edition for many years, and I have decided to begin writing up stats for various Star wars character. Let me know what you think. My first character will be Boba Fett (why not?):

Boba Fett (400 pts., 3rd Edition)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Race: Mandalorian; Age: Unknown; Height/Wt: 1.83 meters/ 190 lbs.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Strength 11 [10], Dexterity 16 [80], Intelligence 13 [30], Health 11 [10]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Willpower 10 (optional rules, Compendium 1, pg. 8)
Fright 21 (with Combat Reflexes, Imperturbable, Collected and Cool)
Specials: Never freeze in combat (Combat Reflexes), once per game hour Boba can roll three times for any action due to his Luck Advantage
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Perception: 10 (optional rules, Compendium 1, pg. 13)
Specials:
+1 to avoid Surprise, +2 if you are the leader (Combat Reflexes)
+6 to recover from surprise or mental stun (Combat Reflexes)
Once per game hour Boba can roll three times for any action due to his Luck Advantage
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Speed: 6.75
Move: 6 (3 with armor)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Basic: Damage: Thrust: 1d-1 Swing: 1d+2
• Punch: Skill 17, Damage 1d-2 (with Brawling)
• Kick: Skill 15, Damage 1d (with Brawling)
• Vibroknife (imp): Attack 15, Damage 2d+2; Reach C
• Sawed-off Mandalorian Blaster (imp): Attack 21; Dam 13d (SS 14, ACC 13, ROF 3 non-auto, Basic pg. 209). Note that due to the Sharpshooter Advantage, up to 13 points of range penalties are always taken off, as Boba always gets his ACC bonus from a rifle. Star Wars blasters fire particle beams wrapped in a magnetic field that allows a slightly disintegration effect. Each dice that hits will cause at least 1-2 points of damage, regardless of DR. Roll for damage. Each 1-3 rolled counts as 1 point of damage, and each 3-6 counts as 2 points of damage. If this total exceeds the normal damage after DR, use it instead.
• Rocket: Attack 16; Dam 6dx4(10) (SS 14, ACC 9, High-Tech. 126)
• Darts (Needler): Attack 18 (13, see below); Dam (drug) (SS 9, ACC 1, Ultra-Tech. 126); This is a sub-sonic setting only weapon (see Ultra-tech pg. 19 and 23) that can fire drugged needles. Treat the drugged needles as loaded with Morphazine (Ultra-Tech 44). Note that the attack is made at -5 when fired from the kneepads where they are hidden. However, the victim must roll vs. IQ or be surprised. If surprised, the victim makes their block or Dodge roll at -3.
• Wrist-Mounted Flamethrower: (see Ulta-Tech, pg. 52): Attack 21; Dam 5d (SS 4, ACC 12). Right Arm.
• Wrist-Mounted Whipcord: Treat as a Tangle Pistol, Ultra-Tech pg. 23 and 126. There is an initial strand that connects the user of the weapon to the victim so he cannot escape, but this can be undone at the touch of a control. Left Arm.
Special: once per game hour Boba can roll three times for any action due to his Luck Advantage
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Depending on where Boba is hit, add PD to his defense.
Parry (vibroknife): 7 + PD = 7 (+1 CR, -1 knife penalty)
Parry (Brawl): 11 + PD = 10 (+1 CR) (x2); hand/foot/close only
Dodge: 6 + PD = 7 (+1 CR)
Block*: 7 + PD = 6 (+1 CR)
Special: Scores above represent a +1 defense from Combat Reflexes
(*) using his wrist-mounted weapons as a buckler of sorts; note that this equipment has DR 6 and 10 hit points before it is disabled. Any remaining hit points of damage go to the arm hit.
Special: Once per game hour Boba can roll three times for any action due to his Luck Advantage
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hit Points: 11
Crippling Hits: Hand/Foot 3 , Arm/Leg 5

Note that Vader often hires Boba Fett, but does not supply him with any special equipment for his missions, so he is not a Patron

[OldSam]

I think there is an unofficial GURPS 3e Star Wars Sourcebook floating around in the net, did you take a look at that, yet? I know for sure that there is one for 4e (not complete but already a lot material), but AFAIK it continued an old 3e project...

[Kalzazz]

Raising his DX by 1 and dropping assorted DX skills by 1 would allow him to retain same level in skills, but the 1/2 point ones would go up and he'd save 1 CP, also his speed would go to 7

Also with so much encumbrance he won't be dodging much, and folks can evade him pretty easy

[AmesJainchill]

IMO, I wouldn't bother with that project. It's not very well done from the beginning, and the current person working on it is simply converting it to 4e, not fixing any errors.
It's easier, in my experience to simply read the species entry in Wookiepedia, and hash something out in five minutes rather than spend that same time fixing whatever your players find when they want to use something.

I am confused why you list Luck so many times...? Also, why not list the RoF of the blaster rifle?

Other than some of his skills being maybe too low, he does seem pretty badass.

[Gold & Appel Inc]

Looks good, but you are forgetting a critical bit of Signature Gear [NSFW].

[MilkmanOfDoom]

Which signature gear is that?

Cloned for the Republic but in the end turning out to be the ruthless enforcers for the Empire (and the Emperor, most of all), Stormtroopers are feared throughout the galaxy as both the law and callous bullies eager to make examples of those that would break that law. Their armor is the distinctive symbol of the Empire.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes: Books used: Basic, Compendium 1

[Flyndaran]

Stromtroopers being clones is only in the most recent trilogy. They were normal humans in the original that had Bobba Fett.

[MilkmanOfDoom]

True, but I wanted to keep some of the new Star Wars stuff in there - it's official now, right?. There is a hint that stormtroopers were clones in the original films, however, when Leia asks Luke "You're a little short for a stormtrooper, aren't you?" That could have meant that stormtroopers were supposed to be at least a certain height, or that they were all the SAME height.

[MilkmanOfDoom]

If you want a Star Wars universe where stormtroopers are not clones, take away the following:

Advantages: Attractive [5], Combat Reflexes [15],
Disease-Resistant [5], Resistant to Poison [5], Toughness [10], Very Rapid Healing [15], Early Maturation [10]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Disadvantages: Callous [-6], Sterile [-3], Weak Will (-4; Enhancement: only applies to psionics or when being given commands by those with higher rank in the Empire, -50%) [-16], Workaholic [-5]
