Title: Item Suggestion

If there is an item that we do not provide in the stock that you think would be beneficial to the RPG, then state it here. We'd also appreciate if you provided information on the item aka a link from wookieepedia with the info and picture.

What about an astromech droid?

Or how about bacta? Eg: bacta patches, bacta injections, emergency bacta kits, etc?

How about larger ships, ones that actually require a decently sized crew?

No Star Destroyers just yet though, i was thinking more along the lines of Corvettes, Cruisers, Frigates and the occasional Destroyer.

The smaller range of capital ships, really ^^;

It would require the owner to pay a weekly amount in maintenance cost, supplies and crew pay though, depending on the amount of crew that would be needed to operate it efficiently.

Perhaps if you graduate to a naval commander, or captain, as a rebel or an imperial, you could take command over a larger ship?
Or do you get that already?

Couple ideas as far as items go:

How 'bout allowing players to customise their character's blasters? Make them a bit unique from each other somehow. DL-18s at least are supposed to be reasonably customizable.

Of course, there might need to be some restrictions so people don't do things along the lines of mounting a 20x magnification sniper scope of doom to their Mos Eisley Special, but I think the basic idea has some merit.

Also, what about allowing players to sell used items? They could sell to the stores for a portion of the original price, and the stores could sell them to other players for a larger portion of the original price.

We already do allow people to sell used items or items they no longer need. That's what these sections are for. Concerning modifications, it's tricky because people then may exaggerate with the capability their weapons have etc

That's good to know, but perhaps it could be made a little more clear (I'm not sure there's any mention of it in these sections outside of this thread). What about having threads specifically for the buying and selling of used items (with some instructions on how the process works)? Also perhaps some rules on what the costs of said items are...

As for customisation, what about having a mod approve modifications if one of them was willing to do that? Or, perhaps more simply, what about having someone do up a list of acceptable modifications and what (if anything) they cost. I could probably come up with a short list and send it to you by PM to see if you liked it.

Although if you just aren't keen on the idea in general, just let me know and I can let it drop here.

This thread shows Misc items you can buy, but we did already state on the site that you can put up your own posts if you wish to sell something. You can see evidence of it, such as people trying to sell lightsaber crystals etc

Yea the R series of droids would be cool! :D

Sylvirci - March 18, 2008 03:12 AM (GMT)
Ok how about droids? As F'nor is a droid specialist (builds and repairs them) and as Ayanna said I had to buy my companion droid for assistance and security I feel some droids and droid parts would be nice. Thanks.

This is not necessarily an item suggestion. It's a little more broad than that. What I suggest if it doesn't seem too superfluous is to create a sale for smaller, land vehicles. Or maybe renting places on planets for land speeders and speeder bikes. If someone were in need of traveling great distances on land so as to be undetected they could merely store a speeder bike in their ship.

Kalin Thalis - March 28, 2008 05:12 PM (GMT)
That's not a bad idea, though it's a bit pointless. We understand that people want to buy ships, so they don't have to pay for transport anymore, but we haven't made rules like you can't get post for half an hour, if you don't have a speeder. Though still I like the idea, and I think people would see it as cool to have a speeder nonetheless. (if you have money too much lol)
