I would not like to be the gateway for updating every FOTM that comes along. ID is generally about style and social aspects of the game and hopefully some money while doing so. The market for this product would be mostly powergamers and this has proven a bad mix in the past.

I like the idea of IDs being able to give disguises, but there are limits to that ability. It could too easily be used as a griefing tactic.

Image designers need to play a factor for both players and the GCW.

What would I propose?

*Let physical appearence play a factor*

Now what do I mean by this?Well let me explain.
Don't you find it weird at times,when you see an obese character burst running as fast as a well built character?Yes?No?

If your getting my picture,Let weight,height,torso(yes torso) play a factor.




*For players characters that are overweight

*Pros
-Take less wounds and fatigue during battle
-Can consume more edibles

*Cons
-Burst running will be slower
-Foods will digest slower,meaning to reach an empty stomach


*For players with an average sized body

*Pros
-Burst runs faster and longer than the obese character
-Has a slightly quicker burstrun usage timer
-Digest a full stomach a bit quicker than the obese character

*Cons
-Cannot consume as much edibles as the obese character
-Takes more wounds and fatigue during battle than the obese character


*For players with an skinny/boney/petite body

*Pros
-Can burst run the fastest of all
-Digest foods the fastest of all

*Cons
-Takes the most wounds and fatigue during battle
-Cannot consume as much edibles as the obese or average character

This is only an example.Of course with an idea like this,alot of "tweaking" must be done.


Moving on to the GCW factor.

*Disguises
-Can sneak into enemy bases
-Mask themselves from other players(This feature would be nice,If the ImageDesigners can actually ghost you from other people's lists /grin)

*Let the ImageDesigner be useful in a group!
You say what?Okay I'll tell you why.

With all the disguise *talk* going around,wouldn't it make sense If Image Designers are able to give a tef reduction time while grouped with members?sound good? bad?


Anyways last but not least.

*Torso Factor (you'll like this one /giggle)
Due to the law of the empire,alot of people suffer what you would call "contrabrand" searches.Yes,I know you know :-)

Let see,can you list what makes a stormtrooper so special?
-Clumsy
-Annoying
-Stuffs their cups(okay this was random)
-Can persuade them easy.

With these four attributes of a stormtrooper given,which choice sounds good?
If you picked the fourth on the list,your smarter than you look /grin.

Well moving along..
*Torso

*pros
-Gives Female entertainers the ability to persuade or seduce imperial stormtroopers and various imperial npc's!

TK-69 - TK-6969 Sir!We have a situation sir!
TK-6969 - What is it TK-69?
TK-69 - This female has checked positive for smuggled goods and illegal substance sir!
TK-6969 - Good work Trooper! Lets take her in and lock her up.
Whats this? TK-6969 is focused on something,but we do not know what,hmmm. Oh my gosh! he is staring at her torso!
TK-6969 - I'm sorry miss,you may move along.
End.

Seeing the picture? These are all examples of little things that can be done to give us more content!

P.S please excuse any discovered typos .
