Currently playing a game with a tiny crew, of me (Bounty Hunter/Assassin, except that he isn't an assassin, it's just that he's a weapons/combat expert but Gadgeteer or Survivalist doesn't map out well enough for that, he was a former Imperial Commando turned prison guard, now out for revenge) a second player (Smuggler/Scoundrel, a former Pirate's Cabin Girl whose also a member of the Rebel Alliance) and the GM.

It's worked out so far for us.

The only real issue I have is the progression system.  The inability to increase your stats is a bit silly, so we house ruled that you can increase them but 20x the new cost (so a 2 to a 3 will cost 60XP, 3 to 4 is 80) and it caps out at 5, Talents are the only way to get a 6 in something.  So far, it hasn't broken anything.  But the dice work fine for us.

Quote from: lacercorvex;961264At first I had trouble getting the dice symbols down, but once you learn the symbols the game takes on a life of its own, the different tiers of results on the dice can lead to interesting encounters on the fly, for example, you can succeed at a task , picking the security lock on the door, but also get a few threats left over in the roll, so the gm decides a silent alarm is triggered, and so a couple of Stormtroopers will soon be visiting our group of heroes, if a despair was rolled then maybe a squad of Stormtroopers happen to be behind the security locked door on cash counting detail, assuming it's a imperial pay vault, or it's a armory with weapons being cleaned. My point is the dice are story elements used to make a skill test better then pass or fail, it's a good solid system to me.

Actually, I could describe one of the adventures my character had, where every gun he had (which was about 4?  Carbine, two pistols...  And... No, just three) jammed.  I kept rolling despairs and triumphs.  The guns would jam, or be drained or something, but the GM decided that the Triumphs meant I'd find a replacement.  It played out like a Hong Kong action comedy, the moment my character found blaster pistols stashed in the potted plants in the local cantina.

Was very silly, and very fun.
