Lots of things went awry, many improvisations went well. I think that's most games.

Thanks for running the game, and seeing it to the end.

I can't imagine it was easy to adjust for a smaller playerbase, but I mostly had a good time overall. There are some things I'd like to give as feedback, but I'll get to it later.

But thanks for GMing for us again. :D

Thanks Nekoinu! I really enjoyed the Mandalorian experience. As usual my own lack of time in RL made it difficult in places. I had ideas for threads I wanted to do but some days I could hardly find time to look at the forum. So it goes!

Oddly I found the gear side of things was the least enjoyable purely due to how much of it is out there now :P

Loads of great events, and I liked the polls and alternatives based on the different approaches of the kids (even if Kairi kept losing).

Hurray, Nekoinu! Thank you so much for running this, and for keeping it going all the way you the end.

My questions:

Why Mandalorians? Do you have your own view of Mandalorians?
Did we explore the things you wanted us to explore? Any awesome stuff we missed?
What NPCs did you most enjoy?

... crap, I swear I had more questions! Well, that's it for now. Thanks again!

Feedback is welcome. Learning is always an objective. But yes, adjusting to a smaller team was actually jarring. I expected to have a rotation of people participating in events instead of the same group everytime.

Ha! I might pull back gear for a sequel. This was supposed to be a more high power game.

Since it was a smaller game, I knew I had the capability of adjusting to more changes. But I kind of wish I had pulled back a little bit on it.

What are for-Mandalorians? Anyways, I see Mandalorians as a warrior culture with a checkered history. They're bred for war and imo can be a little xenophobic. Their crimes are often not due to pure malice but rather belief that their cause is just. Out of all of my Mandalorians, I'd only say Enna Saxon was pure evil. I kind of run them similar to Rokugani samurai, actually...

I wish I had explored Corellian unrest more. And maybe a few more activities on Zeltros. I'm sure there's more too.

I'm fond of Daerah subverting her people's stereotypes. Dennah has grown on me and her tendency to just live. Keh'ral came out of nowhere and was fun for me.

Thanks for the running of the game, as always.

Overall, I'd only wish I'd asked more questions sooner so I could have set my goals a bit differently. Beyond that, the game was an overall enjoyable experience. Enjoyed the opportunity to explore Riza's character a bit and interact with the world.

Definitely vibed well with Tatooine. Had a lot of contacts to work through and it was a pretty stellar opening sequence.

Again, thanks.
