Battlelore never really did much for me. The addition of the magic seemed to complicate the simplicity of the basic mechanic needlessly. Still anything that gets you playing in Commands & Colors is good.

The Age of Rebellion beta book went on sale today at GenCon. We've got a look at it for you on The GSA http://gsa.thegamernation.org/2013/08/15/first-look-star-wars-age-of-rebellion/

Yes, they are present in the Edge of the Empire book. And you are correct, the write up does sound as if they are new to Age of Rebellion, but it was more a case of 'What besides humans and droids are in there?" than anything else.

I was lured here with an offer of money.

Fantasy Flight Games has announced the next core book in their Star Wars Line, Age of Rebellion. We've answered a few questions about it on The GSA.

GenCon is a big Con, what games should you check out and how can you make the author jealous? You're heading to GenCon soon, I can tell. I won't be for...reasons. Much as I would like to go, I just can't. In order to promote more efficient gloating on your part, here are the board games that...

Facebook the Board Game was recently announced. What could possibly be bad about that? Each one of these news items, and several others, appeared in my board game news feed over the weekend. All about the Facebook Board Game and all assuring me that the game would bring an unheard of...

Man, my D&D Games were never that cool when I was a kid. How did I miss out?

Gaming pieces. Plastic, Wood, or Cardboard? Which one makes a game sing for you? I picked up Agricola this week. I know, I know, it came out ages ago and I'm behind the curve. Everyone who was interested in it has already got it. Except me, of course. So, why do I mention it? Because...

You aren't. All three books are meant to stand alone just fine and be complete games in and of themselves while also integrating with each other once they all come out. re: Jedi - You are on a journey. Your journey pays off in the Force and Destiny book (2015), but you can choose to begin it...

Seems like FFG might have heard you. Perhaps watching this will help clarify? http://fantasyflightgames.com/edge_news.asp?eidn=4228

I think it is also important to realize that those NPCs were all pretty much provided by Kickstarter backers as part of their pledge rewards. Attaching particular stats to them from an 'official' standpoint beyond the specific needs of a particular encounter or usage would take peoples...

Well done, sir. My only quibble, your space combat may have suffered from a bit of killer GM syndrome :) Most folks seems to do the encounter without much difficulty.

Abstract and lots of folks have trouble with it. We're sort of hoping for some clarification from the core book when it comes out. It helps to consider that your ship is at the center of the combat and all other ships and whatnot essentially maneuver relative to it. Like a fixed viewpoint in...

Hastur?

Now, for the sales pitch. Edge of the Empire is wholly different from the majority of mainstream RPGs that are the usual fare on ENWorld. If you are a lifelong player of D&D or Pathfinder, you are in for a learning curve that some folks have found difficult to surmount. Fair warning. The key...

Ahh Morrus, 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...

As long as he doesn't call it a Tarasque and alters one or two key features, he'll be back.

In attempting to get a count of my Do Not Pass Go articles, I went to my profile and clicked on the Articles link on the right under my name. Instead of taking me to page displaying all articles I have written, it throws an error at me as follows: I've tried on two successive days and...

You'll note that in my summation of the suggestions, I end up by saying that the it is probably some combination of the reasonable ones that would prove most effective. So, letter writing (communication) along with boycotting. Boycotting without explanation just means you aren't a customer and...
