Rules

The following rules are not to restrict players, but they more as guidelines in how to play in Star Wars Chronicles to ensure that the game can be fair for all.

1 – Star Wars consists in the six movies.

2 – The Expanded Universe (aka EU, which includes games, books, comics and others) is a mere fantasy.

3 – If the GM and AGM wishes to indulge in the fantasy, that is their choice.

4 – If the player wishes to indulge in the fantasy, they must seek the GM's permission.

5 – The Force is powerful, but it is not magic, and it is not the Matrix.

6 – There is a Dark Side of the Force.

7 – Force Lightning is a Dark Side only power, no matter how cool it is. This goes as well for other Dark Side abilities.

8 – The Force abilities are those from the movies.

9 – The Force is mysterious and midichlorians only exist to evaluate the force potential of a person and nothing more.

10 – Force Spirits (spirits of Qui-Gon Jinn, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda, Anakin Skywalker and others) are only controlled by the GM. If a player controls a Jedi Master, Knight, Padawan or other force potential characters that wants to interact with Force Spirits, the player need to ask the GM approval for a Join Post.

11 – Stormtroopers, Battle Droids, Clone Troopers and generic bad guys, can hit you. Really!

12 – The Yuuzhan Vong are not to be mentioned, they don’t exist.

13 – This is not the Cortosis you are looking for. Meaning a lightsaber can cut through everything.

14 – Omnipotent "God Complex" characters (Ex: Boba Fett couldn't slice an Imperial Computer) will not be accepted.

15 – Canon Characters will be only accepted the ones that enter on the movies, even if they appeared two seconds in one of the movies. The rest of the Canon Characters will not be accepted. There are a few exceptions to this rule, so contact the GM and AGM for further information.

16 – Some knowledge of Star Wars is required, especially if you control a Force Sensitive characters. Don't worry, you don't need to be a walking encyclopedia of Star Wars, it is only required that you had seen all six movies. Just keep in mind that this is played in Star Wars Universe.

17 – If you are going to be out of contact for more than one week, please let me (GM) know. I like to be informed why our players don't answer to their mails.

18 – This is a collaborative game. It is not intended to be the site for slandering matches, competitive battles or phantom wars of any kind. Anyone who does use this game for their own purposes in such fashion will be removed. Players are expected, as mature adults, to be able to work together peacefully.

19 – All players are expected to behave in a socially acceptable manner. No rudeness, fighting or abuse will be tolerated. All players have equal out of character standing, and have the right to voice their opinion on every game-related matter. If a player does not get their own way, they are expected to deal with it in a mature manner. (ex: no acts of temper, 'playing up' or 'poor me' acts in an attempt to gain attention or sympathy). If a player does act inappropriately, they will be consulted. The GMs will try to sort out the situation, but further inappropriate behavior will not be tolerated and the player will be asked to leave.

20 – Respect your fellow player. This is not a place for one-upmanship, mean sarcasm or to poke fun. This is a cooperative exercise with mutual support. We are all here to have fun and indulge in a hobby that we all share. Acknowledge the effort and creativity of those who play with you and you will receive the same in return. Praise people when they deserve it, gives assistance when people require it and, if there's a problem, deal with it in a calm and rational manner, rather than screaming bloody murder. In the end, we will all be better for the experience and will continue to make this game a fun and successful venture.
