  1. The RPG template probably only needs to be on the last part of the bio involving the players, but I'll leave it up to you. Ayrehead02 (talk) 10:54, January 29, 2015 (UTC)

Ayrehead
  • A RPG template is needed in the body as its assumed the players accept the job. Ayrehead02 (talk) 10:10, January 15, 2015 (UTC)
    • Actually, I don't think this is necessary. The adventure only has them doing the job, and doesn't really give them a choice. The only things that could be changed by player choice are what they know about some of the npcs involved (not Rikal or Ungassan). The only choice they can really make about Rikal and Ungassan is about their fates after the fight in Juaka Canyon, and I refer to that in the Bts.
      • In an RPG though players can do anything, they could immediately kill Stargunner upon seeing him for the first time. I've had players do it in sessions I've run. In general as soon as players are introduced in the body I think an the RPG template is needed. Ayrehead02 (talk) 20:33, January 15, 2015 (UTC)
        • I've added it, though I still don't really think it applies here
  • He can have a personality and traits section and an equipment section based on his roleplaying stats. Ayrehead02 (talk) 10:10, January 15, 2015 (UTC)
    • Snow Job doesn't give Rikal any stats, but referred to him as a general elite trooper (soldier 4). Is the information in the Star Wars Roleplaying Game Revised Core Rulebook applicable for Rikal?
      • If it says use the stats from that book then I would think so. Ayrehead02 (talk) 20:33, January 15, 2015 (UTC)
        • Added his equipment per Revised Core Rulebook Trip391 (talk) 03:55, January 29, 2015 (UTC)
  • The intro should include a little more detail about the fight. Ayrehead02 (talk) 10:10, January 15, 2015 (UTC)
    • Added Trip391 (talk) 18:53, January 15, 2015 (UTC)
501st
  • I believe that the RPG header should be moved further down into the body, where the players are introduced. The players have no control over things that happened before they get there.
    • Done
  • Intro could maybe use a tad bit of beefing up. It's looking a little short at the moment. 501st dogma(talk) 03:29, March 4, 2015 (UTC)
    • Added a bit more Trip391 (talk) 06:13, March 4, 2015 (UTC)
    • Objection(s) overridden by AgriCorps 03:03, March 16, 2015 (UTC)
Manoof
  • Context on Vonium. You say it's valuable, but is it a mineral, metal, crystal...? Manoof (talk) 07:48, March 9, 2015 (UTC)
    • It's a metal; added
  • You should specify before using CSA that you are talking about the corporate sector authority. Manoof (talk) 07:48, March 9, 2015 (UTC)
    • Done
  • I'd recommend you change "sources of vonium" to "deposits of vonium" or something similar, but this one's up to you. Manoof (talk) 07:48, March 9, 2015 (UTC)
    • Changed
  • I'm not 100% on this, but should the second ref specify that Snow Job says Stargunner uses the stats of the general elite trooper (soldier 4), which are found in the core rulebook, rather than just the core (since I assume it doesnt have his stats by name)? Manoof (talk) 07:48, March 9, 2015 (UTC)
    • Specified Trip391 (talk) 15:09, March 9, 2015 (UTC)
Cav
  • To do this, Ungasan planned to host a new event, the Ungasan Cross Country, had the Twi'lek Podracer Ree acquire scanning equipment from Geon Justic of the Elesa Mining Union in exchange for CSA merchandise, and had the scanning equipment attached to Podracers to scan for deposits of Vonium during the new event. - the middle part of this sentence doesn't flow from the first. Also, I would consider breaking it up for clarity. - Sir Cavalier of OneFarStar(Squadron channel) 13:04, March 16, 2015 (UTC)
    • Reworded a bit Trip391 (talk) 17:44, March 16, 2015 (UTC)
Toprawa
  • Are we sure "Vonium" needs to be capitalized?
    • The source capitalizes it
  • There is no way that Gamer 2 states that it was published on November 1, 2000. I don't know where that info comes from, but it's not self-sourcing for the BTS. I would suggest sticking with whatever the magazine it self says, which I'm assuming is either Fall 2000 or November 2000.
    • Corrected
  • Reference 2 needs to clarify that, as I'm assuming, the mentioned equipment applies to the General Elite Trooper (Soldier 4) from the Revised Core Rulebook. The connection is not clearly stated as is. Toprawa and Ralltiir (talk) 23:47, April 8, 2015 (UTC)
