Name/height/weight/sex/age/description are all text only and have no mechnical value?
Correct. Any species modifiers will be spelled out under that species description.
What does the D+# mean in the attributes?
3D is 3d6
What is 3D+1?
The +# represents a modifier that a particular species or template (archetype) comes with or perhaps an advancement after spending Character Points. So 3D+1 is 3d6+1 where the 1 is added to the final roll.
So if I have Dexterity 3D
and Dodge 2D
does that mean when Im using a Blaster I roll 3d6
but when Im Dodging I roll 5d6?
Correct. Your Dodge would be written as 5D
What does the result of my roll mean?
Success or Failure depending if it equals or exceeds the Difficulty Number assigned by the GM.
If I roll 2/1/2 what do I report?
Total of 5
If I roll 1/1/1 or 6/6/6 does it report something different?
They are a straight up addition, so in your example it would be a 3 or 18 unless the Wild Die is a 1 or 6!
THE WILD DIE
One of the dice you roll should be of a different color than the others. This is called your “Wild Die.” Anytime you roll skill or attribute dice, pay special attention to what you roll on the Wild Die. If the Wild Die comes up as a 2, 3, 4 or 5, just add it to the total normally. If the Wild Die comes up as a 6, you add the six to your score, but also tell the gamemaster. He will have you roll that die
again — add the new roll to your score, too. If it comes up as a 6 again, add the six and roll the die again — and keep on doing so
as long as you get sixes. If the Wild Die comes up as a 1, tell the gamemaster. He will have you do one of three things:
• Just add it to the total normally
• Subtract that die and your other highest die from the total
• Add it to the total normally, but the gamemaster will warn you that a complication happened — something unusual (and probably bad) has happened that livens things up for your character.
What are Force Points?
Beginning characters start with 1 (non force sensitive) or 2 (force sensitive) Force points. Force Points are awarded for being heroic. When you spend a Force Point, that means your character is using all of his concentration to succeed — and whether he knows it or not, he is drawing upon the Force! When you spend a Force Point, you get to roll double the number of dice you would normally roll in a round. You can only spend one Force Point per round and you have to say so before you roll any dice. You can’t spend any Character Points in the same round when you spend a Force Point.
What are Dark Side Points?
Characters get Dark Side Points for doing evil. If a character gets enough Dark Side Points, he or she turns to the dark side of the Force and will likely become a gamemaster character; the player must create a new character.
How do you use them?
By simply declaring their use before you take an action.
How should the game report their usage?
<Character Name> is using a Force Point!
How do you gain them?
Awarded by the GM
Same with Skill Points...
What are they? How do you use them? How should it be reported?
Ok, I don't actually find "Skill Points" in the latest d6 rules. Instead there are "Character Points" and I believe this what the CS image you uploaded should reflect. Skill Points may have been from an earlier edition (I'll keep checking to be sure). Character Points can be used to add an additional die to a very important roll or they can be used to advance skills later on. These are awarded by the GM and need to be tracked. If used for adding a die to a roll it would simply state "<character name> is using a Character Point!"
Example: The stormtroopers have taken cover. Now Rojo needs to roll a 20 to hit them. She rolls her blaster skill of 4D+1 and gets 17 — a miss. Rojo decides to spend one Character Point (she only has four left). Now, she rolls the extra die and gets a 4. She adds this to her blaster roll of 17, raising the total to 21. Rojo hits another stormtrooper.
How does Combat Work?
For every task (including shooting a Stormtrooper) the GM and will decide what the difficulty numbers are. The chart below lists the six levels of difficulty and the numbers associated with them. Roll the appropriate skill or attribute dice. If your roll is equal to or greater than the difficulty number, your character succeeds. If it’s lower, your character fails.
Difficulty Difficulty Number
Very Easy 1-5
Easy 6-10
Moderate 11-15
Difficult 16-20
Very Difficult 21-30
Heroic 31+
Is it different for NPCs attacking vs Players attacking?
No
Do you only roll for damage/strength after getting hit?
Yes
How do you know if the attack is a hit?
See Difficulty Numbers above (assigned by GM)
Do you track ammo?
The rules state that ammo is not generally tracked
