GAME mechanics

  • Storytelling - In Star Wars Roleplaying Game: Saga Edition, storytelling is key. The Game Master guides players through a rich narrative in the Star Wars universe, creating scenarios and challenges. He describes environments, the actions of NPCs (non-playable characters) and responds to players' decisions, weaving the story in a dynamic and engaging way.
  • Paper and pen - Although it may seem old-fashioned, the use of pen and paper is essential. Players use character sheets to write down attributes, skills, equipment and health. This traditional method makes it easier to track progress and updates during sessions.
  • Data Scrolling - The dice-rolling mechanic is central to resolving actions and events. A 20-sided die (d20) is used to determine the success or failure of the character's attempts, whether to hit a blaster shot or hack a computer terminal. Rolls are modified by bonuses or penalties based on the character's abilities and situation.
  • Role-Playing (RPG) - Role-playing is where the magic happens. Each player takes on the role of a hero or anti-hero, such as a Jedi in training or a cunning bounty hunter. The mechanics involve making decisions and taking actions on behalf of the characters, favoring immersion and building the plot collaboratively with the Game Master and other participants.
