Star Wars Silhouette Guide

We recently played Star Wars: Edge of the Empire for the first time. It was great fun, and the system has a lot of potential for future play.

I've seen some confusion about silhouettes from some folks. In SW: EotE, the silhouette is the abstracted size of the object/creature in question. It ranges from zero to ten. There is no separate scale for starships versus people; this is an exponential scale.

Here's a brief description of each silhouette, along with some examples.

Silhouette 0 Astromech or smaller, such as Yoda, bogwings, or mouse droids.	photo credit: Ѕolo via photopin cc
Silhouette 1 Human-sized, like most humans. Also rodians, droids, and whatever the hell this thing is supposed to be.	photo credit: Bopuc via photopin cc
Silhouette 2 A vehicle or creature of mountable size, like a speeder bike, swoop, or bantha.	photo credit: mharrsch via photopin cc
Silhouette 3 Starfighters or very large creatures: Scout ships, Rancors, X-wings, Y-wings, Tie Fighters, and AT-STs.	photo credit: msaari via photopin cc
Silhouette 4 Basically anything roughly the size of the Millennium Falcon. Like the Millennium Falcon.	photo credit: cszar via photopin cc
Silhouette 5 Large transports, or small capital ships - usually corvettes, like the CR-90 series Corellian Corvette pictured here.	photo credit: skpy via photopin cc
Silhouette 6 Mostly light cruisers and frigates, like the Nebulon-B pictured here.
Silhouette 7 Heavy cruisers, like the Battlestar Galactica. No, wait, that's not right.
Silhouette 8 Star Destroyers, and other stuff an average pilot hopes to never encounter.
Silhouette 9 Unfathomably large battleships, like this super-star destroyer.
Silhouette 10 Small moons.	photo credit: stick_kim via photopin cc
