See the Galaxy! Protect the Empire!Crush the Enemy!

Join the Stormtrooper Corps!

When chaos runs rampant, and Rebel terrorists upset the delicate peace of the Galactic Empire,

you can be sure that those boys in white plastoid carapaces will be there to set things right. Do

YOU have what it takes to be an Imperial Stormtrooper? Will YOU heed Darth Vader’s call to

action? Inquire at your local recruitment ofce to see if YOU are loyal enough, tough enough, and

smart enough to don the helmet of an Imperial Stormtrooper TODAY!

Screw You Rebel Scum! is not intended, in any way, to be a serious game of military action and

Imperial offensives. Sure, the whole premise is to play Stormtroopers, the iconic iron st of the

Galactic Empire, and yes, you could easily play this as a serious game. It certainly has enough

crunch for that. However, that is not the actual intent.SYRS was conceived as a tongue-in-cheek version of Star Wars, inspired heavily by the fan-made

short ”Troops”. It lls the same role as past games that are violently comedic, like Paranoia or

Kobolds Ate My Baby. Instead of misinformed clones sent on fools-errands by an insane computer,

or furry balls of teeth that only want to eat babies or their friends, you have armor-clad soldiers who

destroy innocent lives and die ignoble deaths.

In the movies, Stormtroopers are treated as little more than hapless cannon fodder, despite

their fearsome reputations for ruthlessness and deadly accuracy. They were woefully ineffective

against the protagonists, and were seen bumping their helmets against doors, being befuddled

by old hermits, ring wildly at teddy bears, falling into bottomless chasms, and otherwise getting

repeatedly trounced by a farm boy, a smuggler, a princess, and a couple of droids...and sometimes

a Wookie. But then, they were meant to be mooks in the movies, nothing more than disposable

extras.

In SYRS, the story is told from the point of view of the Stormtroopers. You will be sent on missions

to keep the peace on backwater worlds, keep guard at power stations on forested moons, escort

prisoners to the brig, and other mundane duties. Occasionally there will be the excitement of an

actual battle, a raid against a Rebel ship, or maybe rounding up fugitives on a captured tibana

mining colony. Of course, as the Stormtroopers face greater odds and heroic enemies, they will beforced to react to, and think around, these difcult situations, and still try to pull a victory out of their

armored asses.

But it’s not so easy when you, the player, know that those heroes with their individual names and

multi-million dollar paychecks are given certain amounts of script-immunity, and WILL most likely

defeat their characters. Maybe not all the time, but it’ll certainly be harder to capture or kill them

without signicant losses. And if you mess up too much, or call upon the mercies of ”luck” too often

in order to succeed, you might have to face the inquisitorial furor of Darth Vader or the Emperor.

As they say, Stormtroopers wouldn’t be caught dead using the Force...instead, they’d be caught

alive, and found dead from a broken neck or collapsed lungs soon thereafter.

But you know what? That’s part of the fun.

TrainingTrainees who enter into the Stormtrooper Corps are chosen for their tness, cunning and loyalty, and are

subjected to an extensive series of medical tests, brutal exercise regimens, and intense instructional sessions

as part of their basic training. After this initial period, while most become part of the Stormtrooper Infantry, some

are recruited into more advanced programs, becoming either Specialist or Elite Stormtroopers.

• Stormtrooper Ifatry are provided with training in a variety of Prociencies, but do not receiveany advanced training. Because they need to be able to deploy into the eld quickly to ll whatever role is

required, they have to be exible in their skill base. Infantry troops distribute four D4s, two D6s, and one D8

within their Prociencies.

• Specialist Stormtroopers are recruited into very focused, advanced programs that hone their

natural capabilities for use in specic units within the Corps. They are deployed on missions tting their

unit prole, such as Sand Troopers on desert planets, Field Engineers with a cavalry command, TIE Pilots

as part of a squadron, etc. Specialist troops distribute three D4s, one D6, one D8 and one D12 within their

Prociencies. Their D12 Prociency becomes their Specialty.

• Elite Stormtroopers were either enrolled in accelerated programs as cadets, or were recruitswho demonstrated exceptional promise and were hand-picked by their commanders for greater rank and

responsibility. Elite troopers distribute one D4, two D6s, two D8s, and one D10 within their Prociencies.

Elite troopers receive a commissioned Rank and other benets depending on their Command Prociency.

values During a Mission, it is necessary to check the progress of your Stormtrooper as he survives encounters and

achieves his goals. It is vital to measure the damage and stress he suffers, exhaustion and tapped potential,

earned experience and possible demerits. These measures are Health, Wounds, Effort, Victory, and Defeat.

• Health ad Wouds determine how much damage and strain the Stormtrooper can sustainbefore suffering severe trauma, and eventually death. As he gets hit in combat, his Health is reduced,

until it reaches zero, after which all future damage is recorded as Wouds, and you need to mark the

Wouded Coditio on your Prole. Wounded troopers reduce all of their Prociencies by one die

size. Any damage they suffer at this point requires a Death roll of 1D20 plus the current Wound value,

and if the total is greater than 20, the trooper dies from his injuries.

The Stormtrooper’s starting Health is equal to 5, plus the die size of his highest Prociency. Infantry would

therefore start with 13 Health, Elite troopers with 15, and Specialists with 17, due to their advanced training.

Health recovers naturally with rest, one point per day, Wounds being reduced rst.

• Effort is a representation of a Stormtrooper’s untapped potential and experience that he can draw upon in

times of need. The Imperial Security Bureau does not ofcially recognize a measurement of anything called”Effort.” Some unenlightened minds think of it as ”luck,” while there are seditious rumors that whisper of the

inuences of the Force. When the Stormtrooper attempts a risky action, he can spend points from his Effort

to add bonus D4s to his Check. He can spend as much Effort as often as he likes, before and even after

the roll, but there are consequences...

Whenever the trooper spends Effort, he needs to make a Chace roll of 1D20, adding how many Effort

points he just spent, and either his current Victory or Defeat value. Which one is added will depend on

the situation, as explained below. If the Chance roll is greater than 20, the trooper marks the Doomed

Coditio on his Prole. Being Doomed has no real effect on the trooper, and it is not immediately fatal

– however, if the trooper becomes Doomed AND Wounded, it is similar to failing a Death roll, and he suffers

some horrible, humiliating fate (like, say, falling off a platform with no railings, getting eaten by the localfauna of a forest moon, etc.)

The Stormtrooper’s starting Effort is equal to 5, plus the total number of D4 and D6 Prociencies he has.

Infantry would therefore start with 11 Effort, because of their room for growth and exibility. Specialists

have focused so much of their potential already, they only start with 9 points, and Elite troopers start with 8,

particularly after the Force-sensitive cadets get weeded out for other...duties. Effort is fully restored before

the start of the next Mission, and may also be earned during play from exceptional successes.

• Victories ad Defeats are a measure of your Stormtrooper’s progress during a Mission. The more

goals the trooper achieves, the more Victories he earns, and the more he fails, the more Defeats he is

burdened with. With enough collected Victories or Defeats at the end of a Mission, the trooper may expect to

get an Advance, or perhaps a Demerit. These are discussed in more detail in Sectio 2: Missios.

So far, this will sound pretty straight-forward.

However, as mentioned earlier, when you spend Effort, the Stormtrooper is inadvertently calling upon the

Force, and the Force has a funny way of balancing things out by requiring Chace rolls. When the

trooper spends Effort to inuence events or Checks with his allies and superiors, he adds his current Defeats

and Effort spent to his total Chance roll, representing the black mark his failures leave on his record and in

the opinions of his fellows. If the trooper is spending Effort on actions involving civilians or ”good guys,” headds his current Victories and Effort spent to the total Chance roll instead, as his many deeds for the sake of

the Dark Side come back to haunt him.

Stormtroopers start each Mission with a blank slate – no points in either Victory or Defeat. As he earns them

during the session, he has a choice of adding them straight to his Values, or he may use them to decrease

the opposing Value on a one-to-one basis. Sure, it makes sense to reduce your total Defeats with your

Victories to avoid possible censure later, but it may seem counter-intuitive to reduce your Victories. Just

remember that Rebels like to target particularly notorious and successful Imperials for ”interventions.” More

on Victories and Defeats can be found in Sectio 2: Missios.

Proficiencies Stormtroopers train in fteen different areas of

military skills, physical conditioning, and technical

abilities. Called Prociencies, each represent a

different role a trooper can be expected to ll in

the eld. While all Stormtroopers are competent

in every Prociency, they will have put more time

and practice into certain abilities. Based on their

Training, Stormtroopers will receive a number of

dice which are then distributed amongst the various

Prociencies, the size of the die determining thetrooper’s level of expertise.

The Prociencies are briey described below. They also include the classication for Specialist Stormtroopers.

• Accuracy: Training in the use of light arms and hurled weapons, such as blaster pistols and ries,

slugthrowers, echettes, thrown grenades, bows, and slings.

Class: Storm Commando.

• Airbore: Training in the use of personal ight devices such as jumpjets and jetpacks, aerial freefall and

deployment, and operating in zero-G environments.

Class: Jump Trooper or Space Trooper.

• Commad: Training in tactics and strategy, as well as directing soldiers in battle, and working within themilitary hierarchy and chain of command. Command is also a measure of military Rank, as described later.

Class: Field Trooper.

• Coict: Training in close-quarters combat, including the use of martial arts and a variety of melee

weapons, as well as a focus on physical strength and persuasion through threats of violence.

Class: Assault Trooper.

• Cotact: Training in dealing with other divisions of the military, handling supply procurement, as well as

how to deal diplomatically with planetary authorities and native populaces.

Class: Support Trooper.

• Covert: Training in techniques of inltration, stealth, sabotage, intrusion, and silent extermination.

Class: Shadow Trooper.

• Egieer: Training in the construction and modication of equipment, vehicles, and fortications, the

preparation and safe disarmament of explosive charges, and the operation of heavy armored vehicles and

walkers.

Class: Frag Trooper or Field Engineer.

• Guer: Training in heavy ranged weapons, support weapons such as grenade launchers and chemical

projectors, and artillery, mortars and vehicle weapon emplacements.

Class: Shock Trooper.

Trooper, Snow Trooper, etc.)

Name and DesignationNames are the easy part. Everyone has a name. Even the old clone troopers would take names for themselves

after a while. The Designation is your individual Stormtrooper identication code. This will be a series of two

letters, followed by four numbers, like CC-0001, TH-1138, or RT-2093. Your Stormtrooper’s Designation is more

important than your Name. Your commanding ofcers will only call you by your Designation, your access codes

only work with your Designation, and you are required to identify yourself and your fellow troopers by your

Designations when in public. The public, especially in areas with strong ties to the Rebel insurgency, should

never, EVER know your real name. Your Designation serves to inspire fear and respect amongst the civilians.

Rank For most Stormtroopers, Rank is a measure of eld experience and unit seniority, which is represented by his

rating in the Command Prociency. For enlisted troops, Rank has no real effect aside from description and

distinction. Elite troops, on the other hand, have a commissioned Rank, which offers them greater access

and privilege. Elite Stormtroopers with a Rank higher than other troopers receive a bonus when giving orders,

asserting authority, or making requisitions, and suffer a penalty when dealing with superior ofcers in the same

conditions. Rank is a Scale modier, which is explained in Sectio 3: Procedures.

Aren’t There Other Proficiencies?

Because SYRS is centered around Imperial military operations, the Prociencies here focus entirely on theStormtrooper’s military training. We can assume that, unless they are clones, they have other things they

might be good at, such as arts or crafts, scholarly pursuits, hobbies, and so on. However, none of these are

necessary to a SYRS game (which almost sounds like a pun). Of course, the people Stormtroopers encounter

(read as: kill), may have any number of different talents of their own, such as Artisan, Merchant, Rebel Spy,

or Doctor, some which include abilities that Stormtroopers are not trained in (avoiding falling off walkways

without railings), and others that may overlap with their abilities (I’m sure a Rebel Spy would have training

similar to Intrigue). A lot of it is left up to the Mission Director’s interpretations, since it would be a pain in

the ass to list the dozens, if not hundreds of different skills that would accurately represent the dichotomy of

abilities in the Star Wars universe.

unit and AssignmentThe team you are assigned to is your Unit. There are no game rules related to your Unit, but it gives the

players an idea of how many other Stormtroopers are stationed with them, wherever they might be assigned.

While the Old Republic and the Rebel Alliance tend to have colorful

monikers for their Units, Imperial Units will typically use spartan Unitnumbers, such as the 501st Legion, 102nd Battalion, or the 25th

Advance Fireteam. Units with a history of distinction or under the

direct command of a particularly prominent gure may earn a more

descriptive nickname. The 501st Legion, for instance, is also known

as ”Vader’s Fist.”

The Unit’s Assignment is the name of whatever world or location

they are stationed at, whether that is the Tatooine Garrison, Endor

Front Lines, or even the Death Star Brig.

HomeworldWhile this may seem like an insignicant detail compared to everything else, your trooper’s homeworld is an

important detail for the ction you and the other players will weave. Between the many worlds of the Galactic

Empire, there are rivalries, enemies, deep friendships, mysteries, mistrust, and shared legends. People from

different worlds will have their distinct accents and attitudes and ways of doing things.

If you can somehow work your Homeworld into your actions and activities, particularly in a creative or

interesting way, the Mission Director may even reward you for it, either with a bonus to your Check, or maybe

even Effort points. Are you Corellian who tries to change the duty assignments with a little gambling? Or maybe

you are from Coruscant and use your street-smarts to uncover some information from underworld scum?

Perhaps you are a native of Tatooine who knows all of the local moisture-farmers by name, and has a good

reputation with them? Think creatively, since your Stormtrooper will often need all the help they can get.We’re not going to describe the multitudes of different worlds for you – we assume that if you’ve seen enough

Star Wars, you can name at least ve or six planets. Need any help? Here’s a list of different planets that are

per mission. Elite and Specialized troopers have additional or variant equipment per their seniority and

operational focus. If you need special equipment, troopers can try to requisition them through proper channels

AssignmentIn Screw You Rebel Scum!, there are no ”adventures.” Adventures are for foolhardy, reckless individuals who

care only about fame and fortune. They will call themselves heroes because of their exploits, but they do

nothing to serve the public or the good of the Empire.

Stormtroopers don't have adventures – they have Missions. Missions determine where the troopers need to

go and what they need to do. The Mission Director has the responsibility of putting together Missions, andassigning them to an expendable responsible team of troopers. It is then up to them to carry out their orders

obediently, no matter what they are. Their loyalty and hard work will see them through, and if their Mission is

completed successfully, they will reap the rewards.

Missions are built from a series of Objectives and Limitations.

•Objectives are the goals of the Mission that need to be accomplished. This may be as simple as guarding

a particular post, as dangerous as inltrating a terrorist cell, or as difcult as holding a position against a

superior military force. Objectives should be short and to the point: what needs to be done, where does it need

to be done, and who does it need to be done to. The Mission Director will make up to six different Objectives for

a single Mission. Most of these goals should be Primary Objectives – they must be completed for the Mission to

be considered a success. There can also be Secondary Objectives, which are supplemental goals – not vital tothe Mission, but ultimately helpful if accomplished.

•Limitatios are restraints that dene the stakes of the Mission. Perhaps an Objective must be completed

within a certain timeframe, or they must prevent a particular outcome or situation from occuring, or maybe

they must take a particular target unharmed. Potentially, any Objective can have one or more Limitations

attached to it, even if only arbitrarily assigned by a commanding ofcer who takes perverse pleasure in making

Stormtroopers suffer.

AssignmentThe Mission Director can present the Mission in whatever manner he sees t: providing a Mission print-outwith the Objectives and Limitations clearly laid out; reading out the Mission goals in character like an actual

brieng; he can even toss the troopers in blind, and let them use their expertise and clues they nd in the eld

to determine what the Mission is (if the MD wants to be really dastardly).

Whatever method is used, it will be up to the Stormtroopers to keep track of their Objectives and Limitations

once they are on the move. In the eld, they typically can't ask for reminders from their commanders, and doing

so would cast serious doubt on their ability to complete the Mission. However, how the Mission is completed is

up to the discretion of the troopers. It can be played by the book, they could jump in recklessly, take it carefully,

approach it with completely irregular tactics, or even put it off completely until the last minute! It doesn't really

matter, as long as they are successful. Of course, the very nature of some Objectives and Limitations may

make certain options unavailable or extraordinarily risky. For example, using high explosives to inltrate an

enemy base, when you are supposed to go unnoticed, would make things rather difcult.

Reports and Rewards While the Stormtroopers are seeking to accomplish their Mission, it is up to the Mission Director to decide if

and when Objectives have been achieved. It is expected that during downtime, the troopers will be sending

progress reports or making records of their Mission for review by their commanders. Of course, we don't expect

you to write real reports...we aren't sadists. Between each Scee, the Mission Director will dole out Victory

and Defeat points based on what has been completed. These points are given equally to each trooper, even if

they were only nominally involved in the action.

•Primary Objectives: If the troopers have completed one of their Primary Objectives, they earn fourpoints of Victory. If, instead, they have failed at an attempt, they receive one point of Defeat. If the failure is so

great that the Objective is completely FUBAR, they get two points of Defeat.

•Secodary Objectives: Because these goals are not essential to the Mission, completing them only

earns two points of Victory. Similarly, losing it won't affect the Mission's main goals, and only forces the troopers

to accrue one Defeat point, no matter how badly things went.

•Limitatios: There are no additional rewards for working within the restrictions of your Mission – it is

expected for troopers to follow their instructions to the letter. If the Limitation is ignored, the Mission Director



10

S e c

t i o n 2 : M

i s s i o n s

will add a point of Defeat to the troopers' total, whether the Objective was successful or not. It is also important

to understand that Limitations are often there for a very good reason. Not heeding them could lead to

complications later in the Mission.

Report Supplementals There are other ways of earning Victories and suffering Defeats as part of the Mission, too. As Imperial

Stormtroopers, there are certain things that MUST be done, no matter where they are in the Galaxy, and theycan be used to bolster their reports...or to further doom them to a week in the Brig for insubordination. Because

these supplementals are often performed by individuals, the points earned are only given to those Stormtroopers

responsible.

•Hearts ad Mids: If your troopers manage through their deeds and actions to inspire respect in

signicant portions of the local populace, they earn two points of Victory. They can also get two points of Victory

by intimidating a community into complete subservience to the Empire. This reward is subjective, based on

the situation. Obviously, a community that fakes its respect for the Imperial way of life will not earn the troopers

anything, and may bring them under suspicion for being complicit with supporters of insurgency.

•Bouties: The Empire has a tight budget (heck, they can rarely affort safety railings...), so any Credits theycan save from capturing bounties rathering than paying for mercenaries or the villainous Bounty Hunters' Guild, the

better. Bringing in a signicant bounty earns a Victory point, unless it was already part of the Mission Objectives.

•Tributes: Some cultures and alien species revere the Emperor and Darth Vader as gods. Sometimes, they

need to be reminded to please their gods. If the troopers collect offerings and tributes and deliver them to the local

Moff or system governor, they earn a Victory point. However, any report of embezzelment is a good way of getting

your trooper killed, and also earns two points of Defeat!

•Property Damage: Normally, destroying public property is a standard part of Imperial operations –

buildings and dwellings are, after all, just a convenient and concealed shortcut in urban environments when

explosives are carefully applied. But the Stormtroopers must be careful not to destroy the property belonging toimportant and inuential citizens, which may get you one point of Defeat, or Imperial property, which is worth two

Defeat points. Crashing vehicles or getting blown up in such property usually doesn't count...your trooper won't be

alive long enough for it to be written up in a report.

•Casualties: No matter what their Mission is, Stormtroopers are always expected to protect important

members of the Empire, such as admirals, Moffs, and governors, except when otherwise ordered by Lord Vader.

Any superior ofcer or important individual that dies under your watch earns the trooper two points of Defeat. Dying

of natural causes doesn't besmirch their report, though it will be necessary to PROVE it was natural causes...

Being a Dick There will always be some troopers who feel that they deserve all of the praise for successes, and are

blameless for all failures (these are, more likely than not, Elite Stormtroopers with a commissioned Rank and

feelings of entitlement). When Victories and Defeats are being dished out, such enterprising individuals can try

to screw over the other troopers by Takig Credit, or Placig Blame.

By Taking Credit, he earns two more Victory points for a successful Objective, while the other troopers earn

nothing; by Placing Blame, he avoids taking any Defeat points while his teammates suffer two additional points.

In each case, this requires a special Contested Check – the trooper and all of his teammates make special

Checks adding their Command Prociency, and compare their totals to each other. If the weasel of a trooper

has the highest outcome, he is successful.

Taking Credit and Placing Blame may seem like a really disruptive thing to do, particularly when you are trying

to work together to accomplish a Mission. Hell, it IS disruptive. However, since both of these actions involvereporting to superiors with embellished Mission progress updates before anyone else has the chance, the other

troopers won’t actually nd out what has been done until it is too late (at least in the ction...obviously, the other

players would know about it). By the time of the Mission Debrieng, it will all become clear when one of their

team makes off with an Imperial commendation and a promotion, while the rest of them get garbage-scow duty.

Of course, a trooper who does this too often may nd themselves making the acquaintance of a dianoga in the

near future.

Debriefing At the end of each Mission, the MD will ask for a Debrieng Report from each of the surviving Stormtroopers.

Each trooper will take the Debrieng Report, and distribute 5 Victory and 5 Defeat points secrectly amongst

each of the other troopers. This is a subjective opinion of the effectiveness or liability posed by the other

troopers. The Mission Director will collect the Reports, average the ratings

for each trooper (rounding up), and add it to their current values.Once the Stormtroopers have logged their nal totals, they will subtract

their total Defeats from their total Victories, and check the following chart

to see what possible Advances (or Demerits) they may receive.

Many individual Advances will have an associated cost – if the trooper has

earned enough Advances, he can select a more expensive award. You

cannot collect Advances over several Missions to spend them at a later

time, because Military bureaucracies simply don't work that much in your

favor.

When a trooper receives new Prociencies or advances current

Prociencies, this will retroactively affect their Health and Effort totals.

For example, if an Infantry Trooper advances a D6 Prociency to D8, hewould lose one point of Effort.

Advances •Advaced Traiig (2): Your trooper is enrolled in an advanced training program. He may upgrade a

D8 Prociency to D10, or a D10 Prociency to D12. You cannot have more Prociencies than you have space

on your Imperial Prole.

•Developmet: Your trooper is given additional training to improve his skill base. You may add a new

D4 Prociency, upgrade a D4 Prociency to D6, or upgrade a D6 Prociency to D8. You cannot have more

Prociencies than you have space on your Imperial Prole.

•Medal of Hoor (2): Your Stormtrooper has been recognized by several commanding ofcers has

having gone above and beyond the call of duty, and is awarded the prestigious Medal of Honor. During the

next Mission, this counts as a +5 bonus to all Checks when inuencing or asserting his authority over other

Imperials. However, this also counts as three automatic points of Victory when making Chance rolls.

•Medal of Service: Because of your Stormtrooper's hard work and steadiness under re, he has earned

the award of the Medal of Service. During the next Mission, this counts as a +2 bonus to all Checks when

inuencing or asserting his authority over other Imperials. However, this also counts as one automatic point of

Victory when making Chance rolls.

•Medal of Victory (3): Your trooper has been recognized by Lord Vader himself as being an example

to other Stormtroopers throughout the Empire, and personally awards you with the Medal of Victory. During the

next Mission, this counts as a +10 bonus to all Checks when inuencing or asserting his authority over other

Imperials. However, this also counts as ve automatic points of Victory when making Chance rolls.

•Procuremet (2): At the beginning of the Mission, or any time you have access to an Imperial supply

base, you can spend a point of Effort (no Chance roll required), to obtain a non-standard piece of equipment for

use during the rest of the Mission. This can be any sort of weapon, vehicle, droid, or other gear, as long as the

Mission Director deems that it is available.

•Promotio (2): Your trooper has been recognized as having signicant potential, and has been givena promotion to commissioned status. If the trooper was already commissioned, he increases his Rank by one

level instead.

•Quartermaster (3): Your trooper is assigned the special position of the unit's eld quartermaster.

He has a utility cache that he carries with him (-2 to Checks when carrying it around). Any time during the

Mission, he may spend a point of Effort (no Chance roll required), to produce any piece of Gear from one of its

compartments, as long as it isn't Heavy or Large.

Total Outcome

-11 and below Judgement

-6 to -10 Retraining

-3 to -5 Demotion

-1 to -2 Reprimand

0 to +5 Nothing

+6 to +10 1 Advance

+11 to +15 2 Advances

+16 and up 3 Advances

•Requisitio: Your trooper gains the regular use of a non-standard piece of equipment, such as a special

weapon, forceeld, vehicle, or droid. The Mission Director will have nal approval of the item – obviously,

you can't expect to quickly obtain an AT-ST or a Heavy Combat Forceeld. However, each time you get a

Requisition, you can either select a new piece of equipment, or upgrade one of your current items.

•Special Traiig (3): Your trooper has been recognized by Lord Vader for having exceptional loyalty

to the Empire, as well as an uncompromised command of the Force. He takes your Stormtrooper under his

wing for secret training in the Dark arts, and when he is through, he is assigned special red Stormtrooper armor.Now, when he spends Effort, he rolls D6s instead of D4s.

Demerits •Demotio: Your trooper has done poorly enough that your superiors want to make sure that you won't

forget your indiscretions any time soon. If you were a commissioned trooper, you now become enlisted. If you

were already enlisted, you lose one of the Advances you have previously earned (Medals do not count, since

their effects are temporary).

•Judgemet: Feel that tightening sensation on your throat? Word of your abject failure has reached the

ears of Lord Vader…maybe even to Palpatine himself! The Dark Side is not very forgiving, and perhaps you will

remember that next time with your new Stormtrooper.

•Reprimad:Your superiors have decided that you need to learn a little more respect and discipline, and have given you

an ofcial Reprimand. During your next Mission, you suffer an automatic -5 penalty with any Checks when

inuencing or asserting your authority with other Imperials.

•Retraiig: Your commanders have decided that you need to be made an example of, and have

assigned your trooper for Retraining. After a few sessions with an Imperial Interrogation Droid (just to make

sure he isn't actually a Rebel operative), he is subjected to several painful mindwipes and indoctrination

sessions. By the time it is complete, drop his highest Prociency by one die size.

order of ActionDuring Missions, the ow of the action depends on the decisions of the Stormtroopers themselves – whether

to attack an outpost, complain to a commander, talk to a merchant, to duck for cover, and so on. The Mission

Director will be presenting situations and choices, explaining what opposition or hazards they face, and the

troopers decide what they will do based on that. Because of this, there aren’t any rolls for initiative or rules for

holding actions or anything like that.The Mission is divided into Scees, which are broad segments of time that focus on a particular location and

goal. When the Stormtroopers are investigating a suspicious cargo bay, questioning an informant behind his

junk shop, scouting for enemy units in the jungle, or shooting it out with Rebels while boarding their ship, all of

these qualify as Scenes. Think of it in terms of the movies – if there is something exciting or interesting going

on that the audience would want to watch, it should be a Scene. Everything else happens between Scenes, and

should be handled quickly.

Scenes are broken down into Turs. Each Stormtrooper has a Turn, in order of ascending Rank, from enlisted

to commissioned (hey, the non-coms should have SOME advantage over the ofcers, right?) and if there are

any ties, they can duke it out with each other over who should go rst. Once everyone has had their Turn, the

Mission Director summarizes any changes to the situation as necessary, and the series of Turns starts again.

You will notice that the Mission Director doesn’t actually get a Turn for his NPCs. That is because NPCs arealready assumed to be acting as part of the situation. Rebel soldiers are shooting, informants are scheming

and lying, smugglers are hiding things, and so on. The troopers will try to curb or benet from the actions of the

NPCs on their Turns with their own actions, or Checks.

Checks The Stormtrooper’s actions determines how the situation plays out. Does the trooper succeed with his action,

does he prevent an NPC from being a problem, or does he defuse the situation? Does he fail and suffer a

consequence, does the NPC take advantage of the trooper’s mistake, or is there some kind of setback?

When a trooper is deciding what to do in a situation, it will be up to the Mission Director to decide if it is risky

or questionable enough to require a Check. As long as the trooper’s action is reasonable given the Scene,

and has little risk associated with it, the MD should say “Yes,” allow it to succeed automatically, and move on

with play. Not everything will require a roll of the dice, and this will help keep things moving smoothly. Does the

trooper mow down the helpless crowd with a barrage of blaster re? Say “Yes.” Does the trooper get permission

from his commander to take sentry duty? Say “Yes.” Does the merchant give the trooper what he wants at

gunpoint? Say “Yes.”

Sometimes the Mission Director might want to present possible complications to the Stormtroopers’ actions.

Perhaps there are inconvenient witnesses when the trooper res upon the defenseless civilians, or your

commanding ofcer wants you to take sentry duty in the festering sewers, or the merchant is sly enough to

provide false information. When this arises, the MD should say, “Yes, but...” and explain the situation to the

troopers. If they are still willing to accept the complication in exchange for their success, then no rolls areneeded. Otherwise, a Check is required. Checks are also required when the outcome of an action is clearly in

doubt, or carries considerable risk. For example, engaging in a reght, sneaking past a guard, or telling a bold-

faced lie to a commanding ofcer all should require Checks. In both cases, the troopers should know what the

possible consequences of their actions are,

even if “in-game,” they would be blissfully

ignorant.

Checks involve rolling a single 20-sided die.

If the trooper has a Prociency applicable to

the action, he adds its die to the roll as well.

Any Effort spent adds extra D4s to the roll.The total of the roll determines the outcome

of the action, lower rolls failing and higher

rolls succeeding.

Contested Checks Sometimes a Stormtrooper will have compete with another trooper. Maybe they are arm-wrestling, ghting over

a piece of equipment, arguing over the best course of action, or trying to kill each other! In these situations,

the trooper that initiated the action will make a Check as normal. If the opposing trooper has an applicable

Roll Result Description

Prociency or helpful equipment, he subtracts if from the acting trooper’s roll as a penalty. There are two special

types of Contested Checks that work slightly differently, Takig Credit andPlacig Blame, which were

described inSectio 2: Missios.

Results and Dangers The outcomes of the Stormtrooper's actions are determined by what Results they earn on their Check, and

what Dangers are presented by whatever hazards, obstacles, or threats they face.

•Results are rewards and effects that occur because of a successful Check. With your total Results, you

can narrate what happens on your Turn, whether beating a criminal senseless, outrunning an X-Wing ghter, or

discovering hidden evidence. The more Results you earn, the more that can happen, as long as it makes sense

for what you were trying to accomplish.

For example, if your Stormtrooper was engaged in a reght with some Rebel insurgents and received two

Results, he could use one Result to Do Harm to one of the Rebels while Taking Cover from their attacks. Some

of the sample Results listed further on are marked with a ”+,” and these can be used to modify the effects of

the Result preceeding it. In the above example, the Stormtrooper could use his two Results to instead Do Harmwith a Critical Hit, and do more damage to his opponent, or Take Cover with an Evasive Action if there was

nothing he could interpose between him and the blaster re.

It is possible with a good enough roll to get as many as three Results.

•Dagers are the effects of an enemy's action, a hazardous situation, or some other disadvantageous

circumstance. Dangers allow the Mission Director to narrate what happens on your Turn, such as your

Stormtrooper getting shot, mind controlled by a Jedi, or trapped in a cave. Most Dangers will result from poor

rolls and the logical consequences of the trooper's actions. However, sometimes he will be facing situations

or opponents that are particularly dangerous. If an NPC or other obstacle has a Trait that would be applicable

against the trooper's action, it adds an automatic Danger to the outcome. A Rebel soldier with the Marksman

Trait would be more likely to inict damage in a reght, while a swamp with the Miasma Trait may poison an

uprotected soldier or make it difcult to navigate.

As with Results, the more Danger that occurs, the more that can happen, though not in the trooper's favor.

Some of the example Dangers are marked with a ”-,” which can be used to modify the effects of the Dangers

preceeding them. A device could be Broken instead of Malfunctioning, or the Trooper could be Deceived

instead of Misled.

It will be important for the Stormtrooper to take potential Dangers into account when choosing their Results.

If they know that they are being red upon, it is just as important to take a defensive Result along with your

counterattack, to prevent your trooper from getting injured or otherwise endangered.

ModifiersThere are many things that may modify the Stormtrooper’s Check, either to his advantage or not, like

Opposition described here.

•Assistace: If another trooper is helping with another's action, they add their Prociency die to their

roll when it is their Turn. The troopers may also be aided by droids or helpful members of the community, in

which case their Traits are added as a bonus 1D6 to the Check.

•Creative Descriptios: If the player acts out his trooper's role particularly well, he may earn a few

points extra on his roll. The Mission Director should base this bonus on how despicable and evil it makes the

Stormtrooper seem in the eyes of the Rebel insurgents!

•Equipmet: Some of the trooper's gear may be of exceptional quality, or is designed to assist specic

actions. These provide a base bonus to the appropriate Checks.

•Heroes: In addition to whatever threat an NPC poses, Heroic opponents are very difcult to overcome.

Because of the Hero's script immunity, Stormtroopers suffer a -5 penalty with ANY action against them!•Rak Scale: If a trooper has a higher commissioned Rank than another trooper or other Imperial ofcer,

he receives a +2 bonus to his Check per level of difference. Similarly, he can suffer a penalty when dealing

with superior ofcers and other important members of the Empire.

•Speed Scale: This functions much the same way as Rank, except in realtion to the relative quickness

and maneuverability of vehicles. If one vehicle has a higher Speed than another, it gives the pilot a +2 bonus

per difference, or -2 penalty if slower. Despite a TIE ghter's lack of shields, its higher Speed often lets them

y circles around the ponderous Rebel Y-Wings.

Movement and Range Distance and speed are an important detail in many games, and SYRS is no different. However, unlike older

versions of Star Wars, we don’t need to worry about careful measurements, range penalties, or ddly bits like

”ve foot steps” or such. Instead, we measure distance very generally, in Areas. There is no exact measure of

an Area – instead, think of it as far as your trooper can walk in one turn. When using weapons, their Range tells

you how far the weapon can bered in Areas. Pretty simple.

On the Stormtrooper’s Turn, he can

walk one Area without requiring an

action. If he wants to chase after

someone or escape from them,

it requires a Result like Catch Up

or Outrun. Otherwise, you can

assume that opponents will be

moving about as well.

Combat and Damage There aren’t any long lists of combat maneuvers, options, modiers, or tactics to choose from, and that is

intentional. What your Stormtroopers accomplish in combat is determined largely by the outcomes of your

Checks, and how you narrate the action. You can describe the many Events in any way that seems appropriate

– do you Gain an Advantage by sweeping the legs out from an opponent, or do you have the higher ground?

Do you Suppress a situation with covering re, or with superior tactics? It is up to the individual to gure out

what makes sense, sometimes in concert with the Mission Director.

The only rules specic to combat are Damage and Defense rolls. All weapons inict some sort of damage with

a Do Harm or Suffer Harm result, and all armor will absorb damage. This is all determined with the roll of one

or two dice (and is, in fact, one of the few things a Mission Director actually has to roll for when dealing with

his NPCs). The target’s armor Defense total is subtracted from the attacker’s weapon Damage total, and the

remainder is subtracted from the target’s Health, and once that has been depleted, the rest is added to his

Wounds.

Size ScaleWhen dealing with vehicles, damage presents a rather unique problem. It is much harder for Stormtroopers to

destroy vehicles with weapons that were meant for killing organics. Even starghters will have a difcult time

destroying space stations, no matter how easily they hit them. On the other end, the weakest weapons on the

Death Star would easily vaporize a snubghter, much less a Stormtrooper, were it actually able to hit...

The Size Scale reects how much more powerful large vehicles are in comparison to smaller things. Multiply

the total Damage or Defense of the vehicle by its Size before applying the outcome. This will be a substantial

amount in most cases, but there are always methods of working around such an advantage. All it takes is

some clever thinking and some stolen plans to destroy an otherwise formidable battle station, for instance.

Vehicles with a Size of zero or one are a special case. Size 0 vehicles are considered human-scale or

smaller, and thus have no multiplier. Size 1 vehicles double their Damage and Deense against human-scale

targets ONLY, because of their comparative durability. Against larger vehicles, however, they would have no

multiplier.

Range Areas Description

Close 0 Same location as the trooper, whispering range

Short 1 Within walking distance, talking range

Medium 2 Within running distance, yelling range

Long 3 Within sprinting distance, bullhorn range

Extreme 4 Visual contact still possible

Conditions There are two persistent effects which can drag down your trooper’s performance, called Conditions, and this is

as good a place as any to discuss them. They are Wounded and Doomed.

• Wouded was already discussed in Sectio 1: Recruitmet, and is the most common, as well as

the easiest to remedy; once your Wounds have been cancelled out, you recover. If you are Wounded as part

of a Danger effect, any rst aid treatment will remove the condition.• Doomed is a special Condition resulting from a failed Chance roll. As mentioned earlier, if you are

unlucky enough to be Doomed twice, or suffer both a Wounded and Doomed Conditions, it’s just as if you

failed a Death roll – you die, in some hideous, humiliating, and quite possibly silly way. You get eaten by

Ewoks, crushed by Vader’s Force Grip, fall off a platform with no handrails into a bottomless chasm, etc.

e ct i on 4: opp os i t i on

Building oppositionThe level of threats, hazards, and enemies the Stormtroopers face will depend on how difcult the Mission

Director wants to make it. While creating the Mission, the MD should set aside a stable of Opponents

that are tied to the various Objectives, and possible have a few stashed away as consequences for not

following Mission Limitations. There is no attempt at balancing the strength of Opposition to the ability of the

Stormtroopers, however, just like in actual military operations. The Mission Director may, however, want to givethe troopers some idea of the odds they will be facing as part of their brieng...though this is not required.

The Mission Director will possible have to throw together new Opponents on the spot as well, particulalry if

the troopers wander off on their own and cause unexpected trouble. To aid this, the creation of Opponents has

been boiled down to a very few, simple steps. Once the MD is used to it, he can bring hazards to life quickly.

Once he knows how tough he wants it to be, everything else is a snap from there.

Opposition Points Description

Slight 2 An inconvenience or insignicant NPC.

Minor 4 An irritating obstacle, a mook, or a troublesome personality.

Moderate 6 A trap, a signicant obstacle, a minion, or a prominent personality.

Major 8 A well-planned trap, a difcult obstacle, a minor protagonist.

Great 10 An ambush, a challenging obstacle, a major protagonist or a minor hero.

Extreme 12 A death-trap, an immense obstacle, a major hero (typically named)

Legendary 15 A named, major hero or Jedi

•Traits: While Stormtroopers are dened by their Prociencies and learned abilities, Opponents are dened

by Traits, which encompasses any sort of advantage they may possess, whether learned skills, Jedi powers,

cybernetic implants, alien physiology, elemental features, descriptions of why they are difcult, etc. They are

broad denitions, and open for the Mission Director to interpret as needed during the game. One point will buyone Trait, which adds an automatic Danger to the trooper's action if the Mission Director thinks it is applicable.

•Health/Frame: Static obstacles will typically only need to be dened by Traits. Once the Stormtrooper

succeeds his Check, it is no longer a threat to him, and he can move on. Interactive Opponents (e.g. people,

creatures, and droids) on the other hand, will keep coming back until they are defeated (or convinced to do

something else). Thus, they need to have either a Health or Frame value. When it has been dropped to zero,

that Opponent is defeated, whether killed, destroyed, knocked out, deactivated, or otherwise incapacitated,

unless the Opponent is Heroic. Each point adds 5 Health or Frame, and shouldn’t exceed a score of 20.

•Heroic: For two points, you can make Heroic NPCs. Heroes always have names (and are mentioned in the

credits), and are extremely difcult to defeat. Just confronting a Hero will penalize the Stormtrooper's Checks by-5! You want to know why the Stormtroopers could never accurately shoot Han Solo when he was running from

them in the Death Star? Because he was a Hero, that’s why.

Heroic Opponents also withstand considerably more damage than other NPCS, and take Wounds and make

Death rolls when their Health or Frame is reduced to zero, just like Stormtroopers.

The Mission Director may also want to tie some of the Mission Limitations to Heroes. Darth Vader may want

some of them alive, for questioning or father-son reunions, after all. This just makes a Stormtrooper’s job even

more difcult.

•Equipmet: The Mission Director can arm and equip his NPCs with any weapons, armor, or other gear

he deems t, as long as it makes sense. Equipment is treated like a prop, and like in the movies, a character

will rarely have more than one or two pieces of recognizable equipment unless it makes sense for his concept.

Boba Fett, for instance, has probably a dozen or more gadgets on his person, but we only really notice his

blaster rie, armor, wrist launcher, and jetpack. If, for some reason, the MD needs an NPC to have a particular

piece of equipment for a Scene to make sense (like the spy pulling out a concealed holorecorder), just go

ahead and give it to them.

If, on the other hand, you think your Opponent needs to have a trick up his sleeve, like a couple of thermal

detonators, or a portable forceeld generator, give it to them, but give each Stormtrooper facing that Opponent

an extra point of Victory after the Scene is over.

S e c t i o n 4 : o p p o s i t i o

•Damage ad Defese: While NPCs can have weapons, armor, and other gadgets, it doesn’t make

sense to use the same equipment to allow a creature or environmental hazard to inict or absorb harm.

Creatures would have claws, teeth, and scaly hides, while traps and hazards explode or shoot out poisonous

darts. In this case, you can spend points to give them an independent Damage and Defense score. For

creatures, the rst point spent adds either 1D4 Damage or Defense, and each additional point increases it

by one die size, to a maximum of 1D12. Hazards don’t need a Defense score, so instead each point assigns

double the dice for Damage (2D4, 2D6, 2D8, etc.) to a maximum of 2D12.

•Size ad Speed Scales: While we don’t suggest it, you can make Opposition of extreme Size or

incredible Speed. Giant things do show up from time to time in the movies, like the Rancor or the Sarlacc, so

are given more leeway; but preternaturally quick creatures really aren’t part of the Star Wars ction (except for

some little fuzz-ball on Endor, but we are NOT discussing that). Still, we aren’t going to say you CAN’T have

a super-fast NPC, it’s just going to cost you dearly. Each level of Size will cost two points, to a maximum Size

of 3 (trust me, they shouldn’t get much bigger than this). Each level of Speed will cost four points, also to a

maximum of 3.

DEFInITIOnS• [A] D [B]: Roll A# of B#-sided dice, e.g. 2D6, 1D10.

• [A] /D [B]: Roll A# of B#-sided dice, taking the best of the two results.

• ”s” Damage: Stun Damage. Only affects living targets. If their Health drops to zero, they are unconscious.

• ”i” Damage: Ion Damage. Only affects droids and devices. If its Frame drops to zero, it is deactivated.

• Autore: You can divide the total damage rolled among any legitimate targets in range.• Blast: How many Areas the damage effects. A direct hit does full damage, and everyone else within the

Blast Area takes half damage.

• Bur: If you are hurt by the attack, does 1 additional point of damage each Turn for the die result in turns.

• Cocealmet: Smoke makes it difcult to see, imposing a -5 penalty for the die result inTuns.

• Freeze: If you are hurt by the attack, suffer -2 penalty to all Checks for the die result in Turns.

• Grapple: Target is caught and can do nothing except try to free himself. Effect has a Frame equal to the die

result.

• Pierce: You halve the target’s defense against a Pierce attack.

• Rage: The maximum range of the weapon. Indirect range counts as Long, but doesn’t require line-of-sight.

If you re Indirectly, you suffer a -5 penalty to your Check.

• Reach: A long melee weapon. It can be used to attack any target within Close Range.•Melee Shields: These usually require one free hand to use. While there are no rules about one-handed

and two-handed use, it is a descriptive detail that can affect certain tasks (such as, do you have a free hand to

defuse that bomb?).

•Forceelds: These portable deection shields are small enough to be worn on a gauntlet or belt. When

you roll dice for a Forceeld, if either turn up the maximum for that die, it reduces it by one size. For example, if

you roll 1D8+1D8, and get a 4 and an 8, your next roll will be 1D8+1D6. One the dice have been exhausted, it

requires a power pack to recharge.

Gear All personal equipment that isn’t either armor or weapons are considered gear. This includes sensors, commu-

nications, weapon scopes, medical or tool kits, outdoor supplies, rations, etc. Most Gear will be a mere detail,

and necessary only as a component for the character’s actions. For example, it would be impossible to reload a

blaster without an available power pack, and extremely difcult to repair a vehicle without a tool kit.

Some Gear, due to its features or superior construction, will have certain bonuses associated with it. Thesebonuses typically aid particular actions (like encrypted comlinks), or perform the function of a certain action

automatically (such as a Medpac).

Some Gear is exhaustible, so you will need to take note if it mentions how many uses it has. Otherwise, they

can be used repeatedly until lost, broken, or destroyed.

vehicles There are a wide variety of vehicles in the Star Wars universe, such as jetpacks, swoops, speederbikes, repul-

sor sleds, tanks, walkers, starships, etc. Most vehicles that Stormtroopers will be using are assigned per Mis-

sion – very few troopers have access to personal vehicles, typically only Jump Troopers and Space Troopers.

Even TIE Pilots don’t have their own TIE ghters.Vehicles are built in a similar manner to Opponents: they have a Frame and Defense, sometimes modiers for

particular actions, Damage if they have weapon systems, and a Size and Speed Scale.

Droids Stormtroopers will often have Droids assigned to their Unit in a support capacity, but they will rarely have any

signicant access or interaction with them except when necessary. The most common will be medical and

engineering droids, which is essential to any Unit that sees combat on a regular basis. Protocol droids are also

fairly common, taking care of civil affairs, management, and logisitcs. Combat droids, on the other hand, are

extremely uncommon except for special Missions, mostly because of memories of the Separatist Droid Armies.Droids are built exactly like Opponents, with a Frame, Damage (if applicable), Defense, and Traits.
