[QUOTE="Fiddleback, post: 6147985, member: 6704070"] Ahh [MENTION=1]Morrus[/MENTION], it gratifies me to hear that you have an interest in the game. It truly does. Before I launch into things, allow me to point you at some basic resources for coming to grips with a system which is both beautiful and challenging. The Order 66 Podcast is THE premiere resource for all things Edge of the Empire. If you play the game, either as a GM or a Player it is the Go To source for understanding the system and getting the most out of it possible. Begin with Episode #1 (rebooted from Saga Edition) [URL]http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Order66/~3/7vKM08ng9hE/episode1.mp3[/URL] You'll probably find (tooting my own horn a bit here) the Skill monkey segment most useful for getting your head around how the dice work. Bonus, this episode has Jay Little, the lead designer of the game, on the show to explain the system. Continuing the theme of plugging stuff I am involved with, The GSA has TONS of articles on Edge of the Empire. Specifically useful articles include: GenCon last year saw the release of the Beta Rules for EotE, a review of which is here: [URL]http://gsa.thegamernation.org/2012/09/06/review-edge-of-the-empire-beta/[/URL] A review of how the Beta game plays: [URL]http://gsa.thegamernation.org/2012/09/07/poking-around-at-the-edge-of-the-empire/[/URL] For those looking for more species to add to the game: [URL]http://gsa.thegamernation.org/2012/10/31/star-wars-edge-of-the-empire-the-unofficial-species-menagerie-2-0/[/URL] The Edge of the Empire Beginner Box came out just before Christmas and was reviewed: [URL]http://gsa.thegamernation.org/2012/12/15/rpg-review-star-wars-edge-of-the-empire-beginners-box/[/URL] Jay Little himself provided the GSA with a primer on how and why the dice system works as it does: [URL]http://gsa.thegamernation.org/2013/01/16/nerd-numbers-terminal-outcomes/[/URL] There is a ton more EotE related stuff on the GSA and it has probably the largest archive of pre-gen characters, set pieces, and other plug in style resources of anything currently out there on the internet.
