Pity WotC d20 was chosen for RPing.. I've roleplayed for years, years, and then some more. I find that GURPs is by far the most realistic system available for tabletop type RP. Gods.. the ship combat to boot! It's awesome. Really the simplest system there is, straight up the most complex. I swear these people get physics profs to work for them or something.  Can I ask why d20 was chosen for the RP system? Where other ones looked at at all, or mostly just because it's what people seem to be familiar with?

Methinks because there is already a clearly defined Star Wars system in place for the d20 system. Really, its not that bad, when you really look at it. Ideally there should be a minimum of dice involvement anyway, so its not such a big deal.

I actually have an amazingly well done Star Wars system done for gurps too here. 3rd party, but my god.. it's so well done I thought it was a pirated book at first, but no! There was actually someone with no life, and way too much free time on thier hands. lol I was really impressed by it.

What we have is what we have to work with. It's not D6 but it plays alright. Personally, I find that people who rely on GURPS always bring some non-subject matter material into the game (trust me on this, I used to game Robotech). D&D players usually know better than to do that with SW players. And Otto...I hope you were wearing gloves.
