Introduction
On the desolate surface of a remote moon, an isolated outpost withstands the tumultuous currents of galactic conflicts, its silhouette casting a watchful gaze over a valley scarred by an ancient clash between Jedi and Sith. Balanced on the precipice of a cliff, this lone trading post extends a silent invitation to all wayfarers, especially those bearing credits or murmurs of covert dealings.
As fabled as these locales may be, their origins are rooted in the endeavors of visionaries propelled by mysterious motivations. For those with the means—or influential backing—a pathway to leave an indelible mark on the galaxy unfolds.
From Jedi in search of enlightenment to soldiers navigating the shifting tides of war and even droids yearning for purpose, all aspire to forge something monumental that transcends the sum of their parts. These structures can reshape the very essence of the galaxy, whether ushering in a new era, sowing discord, or providing sanctuary. When created by player characters, these locations become hubs for roleplaying, quests and narratives.
These structures can also serve as lucrative investments for those with entrepreneurial inclinations. The commitment of credits and time to expand, enrich, and staff these bastions results in proportional benefits, fortifications, and functionality. A meticulously managed structure may yield a formidable military base, a bustling nexus of interstellar trade, or a spiritual temple that resonates with the Force. Regardless of their purpose, those who command these constructs find themselves in control of their own destinies.
These rules will be a work in progress for some time, with the latest version posted on this page.

Bases
The entirety of adventurer buildings, facilities and defenses and their respective modifications are collectively called Bases.
Constructing a Base. Should players wish to build a Base, they must pay the associated construction fee and invest the appropriate construction time to build it, as seen in the Sample Bases Table. Characters are not required to be present during Base construction. If the Base is planned to be built in an area controlled or owned by another faction, the real estate must be purchased at a price determined by its size and location, typically between 1,000cr and 50,000cr.
Acquiring a Base. Instead of constructing a Base from scratch, players may also acquire a Base as part of a questline, or be allocated a base by a Faction they are a part of. Working the acquisition into the narrative would negate the need to expend significant credits to build one. Note that most large structures are held by large factions in pivotal locations, such as the Jedi Order temple on Coruscant or Jabba’s Palace on Tatooine.
Daily Maintenance Cost. Each Base has a basic daily cost to keep it and its related Facilities in operation, including repair and resupply costs. If a structure’s Total Cost per Day is unpaid, the Base and its Facilities cease functioning and providing benefits for every day it is unpaid. These payments may be collected monthly instead of daily; if so, the daily cost is multiplied by 30.
Construction Time, Cost and Assistance. Construction cost and time is considered accomplished by hirelings and materials covered by the credits listed. Other individuals, which can be player characters, additional hirelings, and or other NPCs, can choose to help if they are present for the entire duration of a Base’s construction time. If this is the case, reduce the Base’s construction cost by a percentage equal to the individual’s CR or half the individual’s total character level (round up), whichever is applicable. Treat CRs of 0 as if they were 1/8 for this purpose. Multiple individuals can work on a structure for its entire construction time in this way to secure this benefit multiple times.
Administrative Hub. All Bases have an included Administrative Hub facility that houses basic command and control functions for the Base, along with power generation. Note that the Administrative Hub does not count toward a Base’s maximum Facility Slots.
Facility Slots. While not tied to the physical space of the Base, Facility Slots represent the amount of infrastructure a Base can support. Facilities built in or around a Base use up its Facility Slots.
Bonus Facility. Most Bases come with a bonus Facility that does not carry a separate construction cost unless otherwise stated. A bonus Facility also does not count against a Base’s maximum Facility Slots.
Sample Bases Table
Base | Facility Slots | Auxiliary Slots | Construction Cost | Construction Time | Bonus Facility | Daily Maint. Cost |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Trading Post/Inn | 2 | 1 | 20,000cr | 60 days | Market or Residential Quarters | 100cr |
Ground Outpost (Small) | 4 | 3 | 40,000cr | 100 days | Armory | 200cr |
Ground Temple (Small) | 4 | 3 | 40,000cr | 100 days | Garden | 200cr |
Ground Outpost (Medium) | 6 | 4 | 60,000cr | 400 days | War Room | 500cr |
Ground Temple (Medium) | 6 | 4 | 60,000cr | 400 days | Force Shrine | 500cr |
Ground Outpost (Large) | 10 | 6 | 120,000cr | 500 days | Armory or Briefing Room | 1000cr |
Ground Temple (Large) | 10 | 6 | 120,000cr | 500 days | Library or Vault | 1000cr |
Ground Complex (Huge) | 20 | 9 | 500,000cr | 1200 days | Any two Facilities worth 1 or 2 Facility Slots | 4000cr |
Facilities
In the context of player Bases, Facilities are additions to Bases that represent the Base having certain physical locations constructed that provide a benefit of some kind.
Adding Facilities. Any time after a Base has finished construction, its owners can choose to construct Facilities in available space within, selecting from the following list. The owner then expends the related cost to provide for materials and labor, and, after the construction time elapses, the Facility is completed.
Construction Time, Cost and Assistance. As with Bases, characters do not need to be present while Facilities are being constructed. Construction cost and time is considered accomplished by hirelings and materials covered by the credits listed.
Other individuals, which can be player characters, additional hirelings, and or other NPCs, can choose to help if they are present for the entire duration of a Facility’s construction time. If this is the case, reduce the Base’s construction cost by a percentage equal to the individual’s CR or half the individual’s total character level (round up), whichever is applicable. Treat CRs of 0 as if they were 1/8 for this purpose. Construction can be done on multiple Facilities at once, but laboring characters can only gain a discount on one of them.

Facility Modifications
Individual Facilities can be built up, improved and modified in a small variety of ways. These modifications are called Facility Modifications.
Adding Facility Modifications. You can choose to purchase a modification from the list below for a Facility being built or for one that has already been built. If the Facility is being built, the modification adds its construction time to the Facility’s total construction time. If a modification is purchased for an existing Facility, the modification’s building begins immediately, and the Facility does not provide a benefit until the modification is complete.
Construction Time, Cost and Assistance. As with Bases and Facilities, characters do not need to be present while Facility Modifications are being constructed. Construction cost and time is considered accomplished by hirelings and materials covered by the credits listed. Other individuals, which can be player characters, additional hirelings, and or other NPCs, can choose to help if they are present for the entire duration of a Facility Modification’s construction time. If this is the case, reduce the construction cost by a percentage equal to the individual’s CR or half the individual’s total character level (round up), whichever is applicable. Treat CRs of 0 as if they were 1/8 for this purpose. Construction can be done on multiple Facility Modifications at once, but laboring characters can only gain a discount on one of them.

Auxiliary Modifications
Each Base has a number of slots for Auxiliary Modifications, providing benefits beyond what is provided by base Facilities.
Adding Auxiliary Modifications. Auxiliary Modifications can only be built on a Base that has completed its initial construction time. If a modification is purchased for an existing Base, the modification’s building begins immediately, and the modification does not provide a benefit until construction is complete.
Construction Time, Cost and Assistance. As with Bases and Facilities, characters do not need to be present while Auxiliary Modifications are being constructed. Construction cost and time is considered accomplished by hirelings and materials covered by the credits listed. Other individuals, which can be player characters, additional hirelings, and or other NPCs, can choose to help if they are present for the entire duration of a Facility Modification’s construction time. If this is the case, reduce the construction cost by a percentage equal to the individual’s CR or half the individual’s total character level (round up), whichever is applicable. Treat CRs of 0 as if they were 1/8 for this purpose. Construction can be done on multiple Auxiliary Modifications at once, but laboring characters can only gain a discount on one of them.

Staff and Vendors
Some characters may want to see a friendly face on their Base, or even fill a role that the characters cannot fill. Staff can be hired to fill those roles, and some Facilities allow the addition of Vendors to provide shopping options.
Facility and Professional Staff
Staff come in two varieties: Facility Staff and Professional Staff.
Facility Staff. Many Facilities require an experienced artisan to work with the characters to perform the duties associated with the Facility. For the right amount of credits, NPC Staff can be hired to fulfill those duties.
Professional Staff. Player characters may wish to recruit staff of varying types to populate their Base, for offensive, defensive or other specialized purposes. Most of these professionals can be hired to fulfill those purposes.
Hiring. Typically, recruiting Facility Staff can be done via the Holonet, with the Staff member arriving at the Base in 1d6 days, though availability and cost depends on the details of the Base location and campaign story details.
Quality and Cost. Staff can be hired at one of three tiers: Basic, Proficient and Elite.
Facility Staff skill modifiers and payment are as shown in the Staff Quality and Payment table, with Staff being proficient in the relevant skill for the Facility they are being hired to work at.
Professional Staff can usually be hired three tiers: Basic, Proficient and Elite. The capabilities of each Staff member can vary depending on the specialization of that staff member, see sample Professional Staff tables below.
Payment and Desertion. Staff must be paid to retain their services. Staff will typically desert their service after 7 days without pay every 30 days/1 month. Generally, even if Staff are still present on the Base after desertion, their abilities cannot be utilized until they are paid.
Facility Staff Quality and Payment Table
