I'm missing a lot of things, but here are the general fun extra things in the books I have access to. Sometimes where the books overlap a certain topic each book will add a little something different.

- Special modifications: crafting droids/weapons/cybernetic/armor/gadgets, slicing

- Forged in battle: battle scars, environmental modifiers (wilderness/ship boarding/urban}, crafting bunkers
- Fully operational: crafting modifiers, vehicle/ship/space station crafting, converting civilian vehicles for military use, expanded mechanics mods
- Endless vigil: Lightsaber crafting, investigations & information, creating networks, contact scope, environmental mods (vertical spaces/confined spaces/traffic/crowds/urban settings

Rules and suggestions
Starting XP options
Begin with starting XP as defined by your species, augmented by your choices regarding Duty/Morality/ Obligation. Additionally, as GM I’ll give you bonus XP for…
- Human: +5 XP for playing a human character.
- Character Connections: +5 XP for tying your character to at least two other characters in the party.
- Story Hook: +5 XP for making interesting hooks/motives investing your character in the story.
- Game Resource: +5 XP for contributing something to the game outside of your character (e.g. description of a planet/site/NPC, providing a cool web resource, sketching one or more PCs).
Awarding XP points
The GM should award experience points after every session. The amount awarded is typically 10 to 20 XP per character for a session of two or three major encounters and a handful of minor ones. An additional 5 XP bonus may be granted for reaching key milestones or completing story arcs. Playing to a character's Motivation also grants 5 XP per session at the GM's option. The GM may consider awarding an extra point or two of XP for exceptional roleplaying or highly clever thinking. Published adventures may recommend XP awards.
The GM should give the players an idea of the source of their XP. For example, they may receive 5 XP for avoiding a bounty hunter and another 5 XP for successfully transporting their cargo to their client. Any bonus XP that is awarded should definitely be explained to the players so they may aspire to those standards in future sessions.
Mechanically, the reward for adhering to a Motivation is simple: 5 XP per session, with a one-time 10 XP reward for an exceptional session, occurring once in the character's life. Additional awards are not usually necessary, as they become the regular awards normally integrated into the campaign.
Improvised weapons
EotE p212. Improvised weapons are Small, Medium, or Large (one handed, two handed, or bigger than a chair); have a +1, +2, or +3 damage rating; Crit 5; Medium and Large are Cumbersome 2 and 4 respectively. They are all Inferior, so generate 1 Threat automatically. The GM can use 2 Threat or 1 Despair to break them so they become useless.
