[QUOTE="Lord_Blacksteel, post: 7722221, member: 53082"] Fair enough. I suppose I could say something similar ;) In case I am coming off as not liking this project I actually am pleasantly surprised - I really liked this game and I've run 3-4 sessions of d6 Star Wars in the past year and my teenagers love it. I'd just like to see a little [I]more [/I]if they're going to go to this effort. WOTC added in the errata when they reprinted the AD&D books and added in an extra intro adventure when they collated the Slavers series. Green Ronin added designers' (and others) commentary when they created the 10th anniversary Mutants and Masterminds book. Some kind of enhancement would make this a lot more interesting I think. The sourcebook was a pretty complete entry on aliens and gear etc. when it first came out (1987 remember) but that was when we only had 3 movies, a few novels, and some comic books. If your personal sweet spot is the original trilogy then it's great. If you're into the prequels, Clone Wars, Rebels, the newer movies, the Old Republic material, or the ever-growing set of novels or comics then you're probably going to want more. When it was new I thought it was awesome and it pulled me into the game in spite of the unusual (for the time) dice mechanics. I'm not sure it's quite as magical today for someone who is seeing it for the first time as there are much prettier books out there that cover this kind of stuff. The good thing about d6 is that there are a lot of options out there. Our own "core" here is 2E R&E with a lot of the extra heft trimmed out or just ignored. The fan version is solid too if you poke around the internet. I just like having some physical Star Wars books around the table for people to use so that's what I keep handy. d6 Space is a good version, it's just not as Star Wars-y as one of the original books.
