They are definitely scaled down, but you can easily run a game with characters starting at a higher XP level and compensate. The best way to get into FFG is one of the Beginner Game boxes. You'll want the Force & Destiny one if you want a game of force users.
My suggestion, which could help you a bunch would be to track down a PDF/ebook of the "The New Essential Guide to Alien Species".
It has most of the species in there, each with a gorgeous picture, many of which have become the gold standard on how some species are portrayed (every time you se a picture with NEGAS in the filename it's from that book! The wiki uses them ALL THE TIME!), a nice description and a lot more info.
Here's also a nice project someone on this sub is making:
Race Cards, which are printable cards with a little race info on them (he uses NEGAS images mostly as well!).
You could just as well copy the images and display those on your screen! :)
I understand now - sorry. I thought you were making a joke about the dice system because it is so free-flowing. I get it now. You did lay your complaints out clearly. I thought you were asking ironically. :)
I personally think that this system is so heavily narrative that it is not going to appeal to everyone. It just isn't. For me, it's breathed fresh air into a hobby that I really didn't care about anymore and caused me to discover a number of narrative-style systems and I find the complication of every single roll to be interesting and fun. I was so tired of just hitting or not and just playing math against terrain, conditions, and ultimately baddie hit points.
It sounds like you favor the "strategic" side of role-playing more than the creative nature of storytelling - and I've said this before on this sub, that's totally ok. There is no shame in playing the game the way you like it! I don't know that there's a way to address the complaints you have for the system without tearing out parts of the spirit of the game. For me, limiting how Advantage/Disadvantage and Triumph/Despair can affect every kind of roll is limiting the game potential both from a mechanical and a player perspective.
Have you played Star Wars d20 or Star Wars Saga before? It sounds like these systems would appeal to you far more than FFG's narrative dice system. They're d20 based and lend heavily to a grid map battle system and a simple "hit or not" system. They've got the Star Wars feel (especially Saga) with that tried and true "roll a d20 and add some stuff and simply hit or not" method of gaming.
Hope this helps - and sorry again for the confusion on your post. :)
The old West End Games d6 system had two great source books.
The Death Star Technical Companion has a lot of interesting floorplans, and according to that, things like the Death Stars and Star Destroyers were basically built using the same modular rooms. They're not ready to use battlemaps or anything, but I remember there being a good deal of great layouts for things like crew living areas, detention center, etc.
http://www.amazon.com/Star-Wars-Death-Technical-Companion/dp/0874311209/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1452105488&sr=8-1&keywords=death+star+companion
There's also The Imperial Source book from WEG. I don't remember if there are a lot of deck/floor plans in it, but there is a TON of information on the Imperial military is organized.
http://www.amazon.com/Star-Wars-Imperial-Sourcebook-2nd/dp/0874312108/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1452105642&sr=8-1&keywords=west+ends+games+imperial
Obviously, neither will have compatible stat blocks for the new system, but if you can find paper backs of either for <$10, I'd say they were essential if your game is going to have a lot of Imperial Entanglements, and you want a solid source you can pull from without having to invent it all on the fly... which is also certainly an option!
Heard good things about https://www.amazon.com/Return-Lazy-Dungeon-Master-Michael/dp/1726631826/ref=sr_1_6?keywords=rpg+planning&qid=1570600458&sr=8-6
Also this is pretty good https://www.montecookgames.com/store/product/your-best-game-ever/
And this aint half bad https://www.amazon.com/Odyssey-Complete-Campaign-Management-EGP42004/dp/0983613338/ref=sr_1_21?keywords=odyssey+rpg&qid=1570600553&sr=8-21
&#x200B;
Probably Monte Cook's is the most complete product.
To start I would do the Edge starter set adventure and then the follow up. But if possible use the core book and have people make their own characters. You can use the Lords of Nal hutta book to add a bunch of extra encounters and details into those. Then if you want to stick with printed adventures is is easy to move them right into Mask of the Pirate Queen.
Look for a beginner game box set. Comes with dice, pre-generated characters, and a short adventure that slowly introduces you to the rules and concepts. FFG also has some sample characters and the second part to the adventures contained in each available for free download.

Get this one.
It seems to not have been updated for The Last Jedi, but otherwise has material from all eras. The photos of the blaster props from the movies, labeled with their in-universe designations, in the section on blasters, is worth the price alone. Just a really great all-around reference source to use for visual aids in the game.
Not quite as old as WEG, but for a Dark Side campaign I love going back to the Dark Side Sourcebook. It's from the first D20 SWRPG.
Looks like they are sold out now

I agree with everyone here. While it's confusing to start if you take the time to learn it you'll find it's very rewarding and fun. To do what you want would be impossible. It would not convert well.
However, there is an older star wars rpg that uses an older system that is probably what you're looking for. https://www.amazon.com/Revised-Core-Rulebook-Star-Roleplaying/dp/078692876X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1486065166&amp;sr=8-1 You might want to check this out if you still can't figure out the new system.

I've used one of these or a similar one during a One shot for dnd at a job I once had. Kinda pricey but making a board anywhere is fun.
Thanks for the heads up, I just placed an order. I wasn't planning on picking up any adventure books, but for this price, why not?
Heads up - Endless Vigil is also pretty deeply discounted through Amazon:

This has been awesome, by providing some basic phrases in Huttese i've been able to spice up soem of the interations with Hutts in game.
The whole Age of Rebellion Line (Careers/Specs are pretty era/faction agnostic), Imperial Duty Chart, and maybe the WEG Imperial Book.
Of course if you wish to follow the new Canon: Aftermath Trilogy, Bloodlines, Marvels Shattered Empire and of course watch/play the upcoming EA Battlefront II campaign.
There are a few 3rd party sellers on amazon with them [1], but you'll pay about $20 shipped per set.My FLGS has some in stock (or did the last time I looked about 2 weeks ago) so I could get them and ship them to you and you can paypal me the money, but it would probably cost the same at just ordering from those amazon sellers.[1] http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/1616616598Edit: Nevermind, I apparently can't read, none of those are actually in stock. If you want me to check my FLGS tonight, I can. I think they are $15 a set and I could stick them in a USPS flat-rate $5 box, possibly without their original packaging, if you're willing to paypal me (or some other form of getting cash to me) the money.
Not sold out.
