Halo/Mass Effect combo using the Star Wars Saga Edition
I am thinking of running a game where the players have a choice between as an augmented human or an Esper.
The AH will have a pre-set stat block that will have a small variance between the players, chosen by the players. The AH will wear top of the line armor and be able to customize it to suit the players need. Also they will have a selection of weapons that will be modifiable to better suit the character’s needs.
The Espers will have a modified stat from a random rolled or point pooled generated stat base. They will be limited in their physical abilities but will make up for that with enhanced mental scores. Their armor will be more a protective nature and the weapons will be limited unless the player takes additional feats to compensate. They will make up for this by have access to special abilities from the start ( i.e. Force sensitive and training at first level).
I am hoping to have a small elite unit from four to six. They will fill the roles of specialists. I would be looking for a leader, medic, sniper, heavy weapons, mechanic/tech and a close-quarter combative. I understand that there will be cross over and expect as much. I want them to be able to insert behind enemy lines and be able to fight and survive for long periods without aid.
If this game sounds like it would be up your alley. Then let me know so I can start to flesh out the details. Also it will be sort of sandbox so you will be able to choice missions and I am a old school DM, I am used to rolling with the punches groups throw my way.
