Recommended Reading: Revenge of the Sith novel adaptation. Matthew Stover does a stellar job depicting the mutual give-and-take of using just Sense in combat.

There’s sufficient evidence in the EU to indicate that ships’ comms are blacked out while in hyperspace. This fits with my overall concept that gravity is the only energy form that carries across ...

That’s not what happened, though. Her ejection seat took an ion blast -
and she lost all power, including to comms and life support. She was then concussed by debris from an exploding TIE fighter. ...

Even better, a portapotty that both disposes of the waste and converts it into something useful. Mundane things like this often get forgotten about in high-tech settings, but biology isn’t going to ...

I’ve talked previously about doing an “energy cannon heavy” stat for the Starhawk II, but never really felt motivated to do it. My original plan was to just delete the Magnite Beam Projector ent ...

But yes - as CRM states - all the force stuff needed to be done together (have five force users in our game) if the force is going to be a major part of a game.
Here you go.
But all he’s saying ...

Basically, I disagree with pakman's assertion that if one PC is a Force-user, than all PCs need to be a Force-user. I also believe that the balance types I described are equally applicable to Force- ...

That’s a lot of text to parse through. Could you pare it down to a specific sentence or so?

If it's expensive, I wouldn't exactly call it common.
The impression I got was that it was mainly hugely expensive because they built an entire prison tower out of a single piece of molecularly bonde ...

Fair points, but IMO, the technological level of the SWU will be a major factor. We know from Han Solo at Stars End that molecular bonding is relatively common (IIRC, Han’s main reaction to Stars En ...
