[QUOTE="masshysteria, post: 4854337, member: 16055"] Oh well, I'll participate anyway. Honestly, I'm a bit fan of the Saga Edition of Star Wars. The OCR and RCR editions of the d20 weren't bad, but they definitely had too many D&D trappings. I had fun with the games, but there were a number of moments where square pegs were pounded into round holes. The old WEG version is good, but I think it breaks down when you start adding numerous Jedi, try to play in the prequel era, or even the legacy era. It was good for the Original Trilogy and the New Republic era. However starship combat wasn't easy and there were some wonky rules. Saga Edition is the best all around fit of Star Wars. Jedi are balanced against the other classes, starship/vehicle combat is easy to run, and it can be tuned for all eras. The down side is, like more WotC games, if you allow all the supplements into the game, you can end up with some very broken one trick ponies. However, by limiting the books to the themes/era you are using in the game, this can eliminate that problem. Honestly, the best game I've probably run and some of the most fun roleplaying I've had is with Saga Edition, so that probably colors my opinion but is also a great testimony to the system. [/QUOTE]
