I’m calling this a post-mortem on FFG’s Star Wars line, but I’m really focused on the end of my time running Age of Rebellion. To be fair, it hasn’t been the longest run. For my full FFG Star Wars resume, I’ve played in two short Edge of the Empire campaigns, ran one with the Beta rules that lasted about
Read moreFunny thing. I started reading through this to review it back in December. I was going to try and get this and maybe one more Star Wars RPG review out to commemorate Rogue One being released. I forgot one small detail, that being that the holidays were going to cause chaos and unpredictability, and then January showed up, I started
Read moreDaunting challenges of juggling work and family obligations nearing the holidays aside, I’ve finally made my way through the next book on my backlog. Feels kind of appropriate to finish reading and reviewing an Age of Rebellion book this close to the release of Rogue One. One Moment In Time Strongholds of Resistance came out in November of 2015. By
Read moreOne of the things that I really liked when I first saw the D&D Basic Rules for 5th edition were the Backgrounds. I really liked the idea of having easily summarized character traits that, if roleplayed well, would result in a character getting Inspiration. The better the roleplaying, and the more the character defines their character, the more Inspiration. The

Until everyone wants to interact at the same time, one player goes, and if they aren’t in combat, once they take an action and do everything they want to do, it moves to the next player. When all of the players are present and may need to quickly interact with
Read moreThe weekend rolls on, and I roll out another review as my backlog grows ever smaller. This time, I gave the cover to cover treatment to the first stand alone published Force and Destiny adventure, Chronicles of the Gatekeeper. This was interesting for me, because to the best of my knowledge, there haven’t been many published Star Wars that focused
Read moreLet’s keep this train rolling! In my continuing quest to clear up my backlog of RPG books that I haven’t yet read cover to cover, I just finished up The Jewel of Yavin, another adventure for the Edge of the Empire RPG line, and collected a few thoughts on the subject. Ready to depart for Cloud City? Let’s head out.
Read moreMy backlog of cover to cover reading and reviewing brings me to the first published adventure for the Edge of the Empire system, Beyond the Rim. In keeping with the theme of Edge of the Empire, this adventure has to do with shady merchants, lost treasure ships, and rival criminals. Backstory Beyond the Rim was originally published in 2013, early
Read moreLast time I posted one of these reviews, it was for the 2014 Edge of the Empire product Suns of Fortune, a Star Wars Edge of the Empire supplement detailing the Corellian Sector. As a comparison, I thought I would look at Lords of Nal Hutta, another supplement dealing with a geographical region of the Star Wars galaxy, for the
Read moreThe first book that I’m going to review from my infinite backlog of RPG books just happens to be one that I read quite a bit from in the past, but recently read cover to cover. It was one of the earlier releases from the Edge of the Empire line of Star Wars RPG products from Fantasy Flight, a soucebook
