Recently, I've only been running West Marches.Dennis Laffeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03053699552003336733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5255299705122830812.post-74569868570863689372021-04-19T13:33:32.967+09:002021-04-19T13:33:32.967+09:00Huh.

Would certainly enjoy hearing about both these games.JBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03263662621289630246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5255299705122830812.post-52390604345615697852021-04-19T10:59:57.540+09:002021-04-19T10:59:57.540+09:00My main game has been set in the Rebellion era bet...My main game has been set in the Rebellion era between Yavin and Hoth. This game with the boys, though, as I mentioned above, is just an everything on the table sort of game. <br /><br />Still, I've used some "clone war remnants" on remote planets in the main game.Dennis Laffeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03053699552003336733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5255299705122830812.post-89998623869629787242021-04-19T09:56:12.836+09:002021-04-19T09:56:12.836+09:00Are you playing in the pre-Empire era?Are you playing in the pre-Empire era?JBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03263662621289630246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5255299705122830812.post-17020492979590614182021-04-19T07:41:32.332+09:002021-04-19T07:41:32.332+09:00There's a free fan edit pdf of the rules, cond...There's a free fan edit pdf of the rules, condensing stuff from various sourcebooks and adding stuff from the prequels. I've been using that plus the 25th anniversary reprints of the original game I picked up last year.<br /><br />https://www.boardgamegeek.com/wiki/page/thing:169685Dennis Laffeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03053699552003336733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5255299705122830812.post-27601792487820150302021-04-19T01:10:46.677+09:002021-04-19T01:10:46.677+09:00Well this is a timely article for yours truly. My ...Well this is a timely article for yours truly. My kids have been on a bit of a Star Wars kick lately as well, being in the process of re-watching Tar Wars Rebels. My boy has gone so far as to even design his own SW RPG (based on early D&D) which he calls “D&D 5;” he’s formed his own club at school to play and has a pool of about half-a-dozen 4th graders involved.<br /><br />Thing is, I was just considering digging out the old D6 Star Wars and running it for my kids. Seriously...like the day before I saw this post. <br /><br />Which edition of the game at you using? I thought WEG quit publishing before the prequel era of SW, so what did you use for battle droid stats? Did you kit-bash them yourself? <br /><br />Jedi characters (even the Jedi templates in 2E are pretty weak compared to the padawans seen in post-WEG SW (the prequel versions of Obi-Wan and Anakin, Ahsoka and her peers in Clone Wars, etc.). It’s purposefully designed that way (based on the original trilogy), but it’s sure to be jarring for younger generation fans who’ve seen the entire swath of SW media...fans like my kids who are sure to want to play Jedi.<br /><br />Anyway. Right on.<br />; )JBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03263662621289630246noreply@blogger.com
