| Credit Line -- Wealth Rules for Star Wars d20 |  |
| Posted by GM Sarli on 5 January 2004 at 08:57 AM |
d20 Content Update |
This article provides rules for using the Wealth rules from d20 Modern in other d20 system games (specifically Star Wars, but it has all necessary information to adapt these rules to any d20 game). Originally something developed for my own campaign, I realized that other d20 Modern fans may want to adapt those rules to their SWRPG games. Enjoy! |

| Chase Rules | |

I've just posted a set of chase rules for d20 Star Wars. This is a relatively simple version that I'd like to expand in the future, so feedback in strongly encouraged! |

| Second Printing Updates | |
| Posted by GM Sarli on 23 December 2003 at 10:35 PM |
d20 Content Update |
All starships have been updated to conform to rules changes found in the 2nd printing of the Revised Core Rulebook, including:
- DR for Shields and Hull has been doubled
- "Range Modifier" has been changed to "Max Range"
- The space speed of transports has been changed to fit the fact that the stock YT-1300 and the Millenium Falcon both have the same speed. Basically, most space transports will have a speed of Attack (8 squares/action) unless their WEG stats had a Space speed of less than 4 or greater than 8.
Also, I fixed up a few odds and ends here and there. Enjoy! |

| Look, Sir, Droids! | |

d20 Content Update |
Here's a collection of 1st-degree droids from WEG's Cynabar's Fantastic Technology: Droids and Galladium's Fantastic Technology. Part One of an expansion for WotC's Arms and Equipment Guide.
Comment from the Author: Sorry for my extended absence. I've been editing books for JD Wiker's new company, The Game Mechanics, and writing other freelance articles for Star Wars Insider. But I'm here now, so it's back to work! -- Gary M. Sarli |

| Revised Core Rulebook updates complete | |

d20 Content Update |
Okay, so it took me a couple months longer than I thought it would. The important thing is that all d20 content on SWRPGNetwork Conversions is now Revised Core Rulebook compatable!
Now that that's behind us, I can get back to making new content. Enjoy! |

| Floating Hutts! | |
| Posted by Jan Tolbara on 25 August 2002 at 12:33 AM |
d20 Content Update |
Does your Hutt character have trouble getting around in your d20 campaign? Have him try this out!
The Gefferon Nimbus Rider 2000 is now available for use in your d20 campaign, either as a Hutt floater or a quick getaway vehicle when your PCs do something really rotten to the local Hutt crimelord. |

| The Next Big Thing | |

d20 Content Update |
Now that the Revised Core Rulebook is out, I'm going to be updating all the d20 content on SWRPGNetwork Conversions. That's right ... every single entry is going to get inspected by your friendly neighborhood conversions man to bring it up to code.
I know what you're thinking: "Doesn't this guy have a life?" Unfortunately, yes, which is why I've been a little short on the new content this year. Working on a PhD, getting "The Sharpshooter" published in Gamer #10, consoling Moridin when my name accidentally got put on "The Medic", planning my trip to Gen Con, pre-paying for my trip to Gen Con, selling a kidney to pay for trip to Gen Con, and grading tests by students who never should have made it as far as college, etc., takes up a lot of time. But I am here and I plan on making it up to you, our loyal patrons, who so graciously look at our free stuff and then decide you can do better and head over to SWRPGNetwork Submissions.
Just kidding ... I hope! :-) |

I'm actually in the midst of a big d20-to-D6 conversions project at the moment, but this is a droid that I converted for my own SWRPG game tonight. I needed a mid-level security droid so I turned to an old WEG favorite of mine, the K4 series. Enjoy! |

| Trench Warfare | |
| Posted by GM Sarli on 18 March 2002 at 10:25 AM |
d20 Content Update |
A few more things that no well-prepared soldier would be without: Bayonets, vibrobayonets, and smoke grenades. Bayonets and vibrobayonets let you use your blaster rifle as a spear so you can engage in melee without wasting the time to draw another weapon. Smoke grenades, on the other hand, are a great way to get out of trouble when you're a little outnumbered and in need of some concealment. |

| Tempest Feud replaces some entries | |
| Posted by on 18 March 2002 at 12:18 AM |
d20 Content Update |
Tempest Feud is out and it replaces a few entries we had in our database for the Corporate Sector Authority: Authority IRD starfighter (pp.121-122), Etti Lighter (p.122), and Invincible-class Heavy Cruiser (see Resolute, p.122). It also has some more stats for Corporate Sector Authority personnel (CSA Troopers, CSA Sergeants, and CSA Liaison Officers), so in addition to providing plenty of information to run a campaign in Hutt Space it gives you lots of good info for the Corporate Sector. |

| Index Updates | |
| Posted by GM Sarli on 20 February 2002 at 03:07 PM |
d20 Content Update |
The Index to d20 Prestige Classes and Archetypes and the Index to d20 Species have both been updated to include material from the New Jedi Order Sourcebook. If you've ever had trouble remembering where you saw a prestige class or species, you'll want to print a copy of these! |

| Long Arms of the Law: Sector Rangers and Special Enforcement Officers | |
| Posted by GM Sarli on 18 February 2002 at 03:59 PM |
d20 Content Update |
I've updated this conversion using the Sector Ranger prestige class in Star Wars Gamer #8, pp.106-107. Also, I've added stats for Special Enforcement Officers (SEOs), highly experienced Sector Rangers empowered to cross sector boundaries in pursuit of criminals. Two favorite Sector Ranger starships, the Law-class Patrol Craft and the PB-950 Patrol Boat, are included as well. Sector Rangers fit into almost any campaigns, whether as heroes, villains, or just supporting cast. |

| Fists of Iron: Martial Arts from Rules of Engagement Converted to d20 | |
| Posted by GM Sarli on 10 February 2002 at 08:27 AM |
d20 Content Update |
You know you want it. Martial arts feats. Tons of 'em. I've gone through the martial arts rules from Rules of Engagement: The Rebel SpecForce Handbook and converted it all to the d20 system.
If you're using the Master Martial Artist prestige class, you can may integrate these feats into your game and create a more flexible prestige class. Remove Lightning Fists, Foot Sweep, Flying Kick, Defensive Throw, Choke Hold, and Improved Critical special abilities. At 1st level, you gain the Multiple Strikes feat for free. On every even level (2nd, 4th, 6th, 8th, and 10th), you may choose one bonus martial arts feat from the link below.
Feedback is welcome and I'm sure some of you will think of better ways to translate some of the martial arts techniques, so take a look and let us know what you think! |

| A New Look ... and Dead Links | |
| Posted by GM Sarli on 8 February 2002 at 07:20 PM |
d20 Content Update |
Welcome to the new SWRPGNetwork Conversions. Some of you may have noticed that a lot of news posts that were previously on the site were not carried over to this new page ... sorry about that, it was a complication that couldn't really be avoided. On top of that, some of the posts below ("And what did Santa leave under your tree, Mr. Fett?") have incorrect or dead links, and some technical difficulties are preventing us from deleting them.
So, if you want to find all the current armor conversions for d20, follow the link below. We'll try to get things in order as soon as possible. |

d20 Content Update |
At the request of a veteran Holonet member, D20 stats for the Dathomirian Rancor have been converted from Cracken's Threat Dossier. Both standard creature stats and PC/NPC species traits have been included for use at the GM's option. |

This is a conversion of a Force power from Tales of the Jedi Companion. Although this is not explicitly stated, Darth Vader appears to use this power during his confrontation with Luke Skywalker at the climax of the novel Splinter of the Mind's Eye. |

| New Dark Side skill use: Memory Wipe | |
| Posted by GM Sarli on 9 August 2001 at 02:58 AM |
d20 Content Update |
How do you deal with someone who knows to much? Try this on for size: Memory Wipe is a new use for the Drain Memory skill in The Dark Side Sourcebook. It is based on the Force power Memory Wipe found in Tales of the Jedi Companion by West End Games. Imaginative GMs will think of all sorts of scenarios that can be built around a party of PCs who have portions of their memory erased, so read and enjoy! |

| Squibs and Svivreni species stats | |
| Posted by GM Sarli on 28 July 2001 at 05:19 AM |
d20 Content Update |
In response to a request, I've worked out the d20 stats for Squibs (from Galaxy Guide 4: Alien Races) and Svivreni (from Alien Encounters). Remember, if you have a stats request, let us know and we'll do our best to get it into the database! |

| Rebel Combat Vehicles | |
| Posted by GM Sarli on 25 July 2001 at 01:08 AM |
d20 Content Update |
This is a compilation of combat vehicles used by the Rebel Alliance, put in one place for your convenience. The various paragliders (from Rules of Engagement) are often used by Rebel SpecForces for silent infiltration into enemy territory. Most of the remaining vehicles are from from The Rebel Alliance Sourcebook. |
|
|
| Imperial Combat Vehicles | |
| Posted by GM Sarli on 21 July 2001 at 08:51 PM |
d20 Content Update |
This is a collection of Imperial vehicles I've had in the database since SWRPGNetwork Conversions was launched, but I thought I'd put them in one place for those who haven't stumbled across them yet. You'll find all the vehicles from the Imperial Sourcebook as well as a couple from other sources. |

| Luke Skywalker: "... the last of the Jedi will you be." | |
| Posted by GM Sarli on 18 July 2001 at 04:46 PM |
d20 Content Update |
Today's featured conversion is in response to a request for Luke Skywalker's stats in the period about one month after the Battle of Endor. These stats are usuable for any period between the Bakura Incident (from The Truce at Bakura) until the Hapan Cluster Incident (from The Courtship of Princess Leia), including the period detailed in the X-wing series of novels. |

| Artillery: Call in the Big Guns (part two) | |
| Posted by GM Sarli on 17 July 2001 at 02:43 PM |
d20 Content Update |
Continuing our coverage of artillery last week, today's conversions focus on the Golan Arms DF .9 anti-infantry battery, its variants (the Twin DF .9 and the SP .9), and its precursor (the C/AF .9). The DF .9 is the turreted tower-like artillery piece used by the Rebels at the Battle of Hoth. |

| Gallandro: "... to judge the quick and the dead." | |
| Posted by GM Sarli on 12 July 2001 at 06:12 PM |
d20 Content Update |
The legendary gunslinger known as Gallandro has been a mercenary, bodyguard, bounty hunter, and hired killer ... and his lightning-fast quick draw and deadly accuracy make him most efficient at this last role. He has killed more people than most have met in their entire lives, even bloodying the Assassin's Guild itself during a feud. He had settled down to a hard-earned good life in the Corporate Sector when a young punk named Han Solo happened to cross his path ... |

| Spacetroopers: "In space, no one can hear you scream ..." | |
| Posted by GM Sarli on 11 July 2001 at 03:54 PM |
d20 Content Update |
Spacetroopers are one of the more elite stormtrooper units, specializing in boarding hostile targets while under fire. Carried through the thick of battle in a Gamma-class assault shuttle, an entire platoon of Zero-G Assault Stormtroopers -- armored like a mountain and armed with more firepower than an infantry squad -- swarms over the target, slicing through its hull and taking control before its crew is fully aware of the danger. Almost every Imperial Star Destroyer carries a platoon of Spacetroopers, so be afraid ... be very afraid. |
|
|
| Artillery: Call in the Big Guns (part one) | |
| Posted by GM Sarli on 11 July 2001 at 05:30 AM |
d20 Content Update |
Today's conversions are the first part of our artillery conversions, featuring four pieces found in the Imperial Sourcebook. Two of these weapons, the Light Anti-Vehicle Cannon and the Anti-Orbital Ion Cannon, were used by Rebels at the Battle of Hoth. |

|
| "Shields Up!" New vehicle and starship shield equipment | |
| Posted by GM Sarli on 9 July 2001 at 09:39 AM |
d20 Content Update |
Today's conversions are particle shields (standard equipment in WEG's SWRPG) and static power buffers (introduced in WEG's Far Orbit Project). Particle shields increase the DR of a vessel against attacks but must be lowered to launch missiles, torpedoes, starfighters, etc. Static power buffers allow a shield operator to increase the longevity of a vessel's shields by shunting damage away from the shield generators. Together, these items greatly increase the survivability of starships and vehicles, and you may consider making them standard equipment in your campaign. |

| Rebel SpecForces Infiltrators: Tools of the Trade | |
| Posted by GM Sarli on 3 July 2001 at 07:32 AM |
d20 Content Update |
Todays conversions focus on Infiltrators, the most-feared branch of Alliance Special Forces. They are silent death, slipping into Imperial strongholds to neutralize sentries, weapon emplacements, and Imperial officers, softening up targets for other SpecForces troopers to assault. Here are the stats for Rebel Infiltrators as well as some silent or compact weapons that they are known to use. |

| Coynites: The Ways of the Warriors | |
| Posted by GM Sarli on 30 June 2001 at 10:29 PM |
d20 Content Update |
Today's featured conversions center on the Coynites of Elrood Sector, a warrior culture known for their high quality arms exports (Ekkar Arms) and some of the most capable mercenaries in the galaxy (Mercenary Guild of Coyn). |
