"Many Bothans died..."
After their crushing defeat at the Battle of Hoth, the Rebel Alliance is on the brink of annihilation. To make matters worse, a coded message from the Suprosa, a Bothan spyship disguised as a freighter, hints that the Empire may be building an even larger and more powerful Death Star. As the Suprosa returns to Bothan space, all communications with it are lost as the ship is intercepted by an Imperial customs patrol. The entire Bothan crew was killed in a fierce boarding action, but not before they bought enough time to encrypt the reconnaissance data stored in the ship's computer core.

Desperate to obtain the information that the Bothans sacrificed their lives to protect, the Alliance assembles a crack team of commandos. Their mission: travel to the secret Imperial base on Krant where the Suprosa has been impounded for examination, and retrieve the computer core before the Empire can slice into it.***

This game will use the Star Wars Saga Edition rules, with pre-gen characters (8th level) that will be posted prior to the event.

Slot 1: Caffeinator
Slot 2: Xer0
Slot 3: Wednesday Boy
Slot 4: Son of a Madwabbit
Slot 5: Wunderkin
Slot 6: OPEN

Alt 1: OPEN
Alt 2: OPEN

***I know this this is not exactly "canon", according to the X-Wing Alliance video game, but I think this is well within the spirit of the "Many Bothans died..." story implied in Episode VI: Return of the Jedi.

I think this solidifies my game as a morning slot...

Well, I've decided to run in an afternoon slot, so I am going to have to bow out.

No problem Psion, I will take you off the list. I noticed that you were running a game when I signed on today. The more games at gameday the better.

It is sure to be action packed and in the spirit of Star Wars and the old serials, from the 50's.
