Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game (WEG/D6) Star Wars d6 Character Sheet: So'Zen Al Saba

How So'Zen should attack with a lightsaber using Lightsaber Combat:

1. At the start of combat, or just before if you know it's impending: Activate Form VI: Niman: roll your dice in the Form (currently 3D+1) and try to reach a total of at least 15. Let the GM know what your roll was.


2. Put Lightsaber Combat (force technique) up: Roll Control and Sense (minus one die to each because of using 2 Force Powers at the same time). The GM will tell you if you have succeeded at your control and sense rolls. If these rolls fail, no extra dice are added to “melee combat(lightsaber)”.


3. Keep track of how many rounds of combat it has been since you activated Niman and entered, because Niman is active for 2x{number in front of the D for Form VI: Niman on character sheet} rounds. As of September 2019, that would be 6 rounds to settle everyone's hash. No problem!


4. if rolls on step 2 succeed and So'Zen is attacking:
   
   
   
   1. add Sense dice to Melee Combat (lightsaber),
   
   
   2. and subtract 2D for having 2 force powers in use at the same time.
   
   
   
   
   This means, as of September 2019, he rolls 7d+2 to attack.


5. if rolls on step 1 succeeds and So'Zen is defending:
   
   
   
   1. add Sense dice to Melee Combat (lightsaber),
   
   
   2. and subtract 2D for having 2 force powers in use at the same time.
   
   
   3. Then, think about how So'Zen is defending himself!
      
      
      
   4. Is he doing a Melee Parry with his lightsaber? Add half of his Persuasion skill (round fractions down).
   
   
   
   
   This means, right now, he rolls 9d+2 to do Melee Parry with Lightsaber or 7d+2 to defend himself (with lightsaber) in other ways.
   
   


6. If rolls on step 1 succeeds, AND So'Zen is trying to deflect a blaster bolt: Roll a Control roll minus subtract 2D for having 2 force powers in use at the same time. This may only be done as a reaction roll to being shot at! GM applies modifiers, and roll may be done only if a die has been reserved ( like what is done for dodging ). Form VI: Niman does not help with blaster bolt problems, but does not make it more difficult, either.


7. For the time being, So'Zen's study of Niman on the path of Peace has led him away from trying to aim any blaster bolts that he deflects. (Those rules get a little complicated; let's wait 'til your studies are further along.)

In addition: So'Zen can subtract up to his total in Control dice from lightsaber damage to make sure the target is less hurt (in this case the lightsaber is more like a baseball bat, instead of a sword), OR ADD up to his total in Control dice to lightsaber damage to make sure the target is more hurt than normal ( like cutting through a blast door ).
