Fantasy Flight Games Rules

• Talent – Quick Draw – 10 XP
  • Activation – Active (Incidental)
  • Ranked – No
  • Trees – Assassin, Force Sensitive Exile, Marshal, Scoundrel
  • Once per round on the character’s turn, he may draw or holster an easily accessible weapon as an incidental, not a manoeuvre. This talent also reduces the amount of time to draw or stow a weapon that usually requires more than one manoeuvre to properly prepare or stow, by one manoeuvre.

Genesys Rules

In the Genesys system this becomes a Tier 2 talent.

• Attributes – Talent Tier 2 – Quick Draw – 10 XP

  • Once per round on the character’s turn, he may draw or holster an easily accessible weapon as an incidental, not a manoeuvre. This talent also reduces the amount of time to draw or stow a weapon that usually requires more than one manoeuvre to properly prepare or stow, by one manoeuvre.

Design Details

I have made this a Tier 2 only Talent and will be moving all version of it in other tree’s to Tier 2 in the future.
