gallis-tech 48 wheel roller bike

The effects of the "used" condition for starships was accidentally left out of the core rulebook. It was instead printed in Starships of the Galaxy. The text is as follows:

Owning and operating a used starship can be a risky business. Though used starships are cheaper and easier to get hold of, they often develop their own unique quirks that prevent them from operating at full capacity. Whenever a used starship moves -3 steps on the condition track (to the point where the vessel is taking a -5 penalty on attack rolls, skill and ability checks, and defenses) or lower, the used ship's condition becomes persistent. Until the ship receives repairs (using the repair object application of the Mechanics skill), it cannot move up the condition track by means of the reroute power action (although other means, such as jury-rigging, can still be used).

For future reference, saga edition threads belong on the "other rpg" forum, not 3.5.

This is the d20 games section, and Saga Edition is a d20 game.

No he's right. Check the other forum and you'll see all the other posts about it there. Despite its similarities, saga edition isn't really based on the 3e/3.5 OGL like other d20 systems. It was made by WotC and seems to be more a hybridization of 3.5 and 4e. 4e isn't in this forum either despite the core dice mechanic revolving around the d20.
