If you want DoD, click <a href="http://community.wizards.com/go/thread/view/75862/24900413/Dawn_of_Defiance_Modules_and_other_Adventures" target="_blank">here</a>.It's also worth checking out all the "Enhancing DoD module" threads in the WotC DoD forum. DoD makes for a great basis for a campaign, but it can be a bit thin in places, as well as a bit nonsensical or just plain wonky in others. Quite a few people have put heaps of effort into fleshing it out.You could also check out my DoD group on the WotC site: <a href="http://community.wizards.com/absolutdawn" target="_blank">absolut dawn</a>Old comments, I know, but I feel I cannot leave them unaddressed.1) Mace Windu taking on a platoon of droids at once - this is from the original Clone Wars animated series, which is generally regarded as ridiculously over-the-top anyway, so the fact that the Saga rules can't emulate what's seen in that series should not be regarded as a weakness of the game system.2) Sidious carving up three Jedi in three seconds - I reckon this probably can be emulated in Saga with judicious use of Destiny Points, Force Points and perhaps some feats like Whirlwind Attack and Triple Attack. Failing that, there's nothing wrong with a bit of GM fiat (there was even an article, entitled "Power Beyond Belief", that advocated doing just that for some of the more extreme Sith abilities).3) Vader choking a Rebel trooper - I'm assuming you're referring to Vader physically choking the captain of the Tantive IV in A New Hope? I'm not sure it's entirely impossible, but it probably involves a number of talents and/or feats that Vader wouldn't likely have. But I'm sure you could find a way to replicate that scene using Saga.I'm not saying it's perfect, though. There are some scenes and/or abilities seen in the films that Saga genuinely can't replicate, like jumping vertical distances. Having to spend a Destiny Point to move your speed vertically with the surge power just seems too costly for scenes like Obi-Wan leaping up to chase after Qui-Gonn and Darth Maul in The Phantom Menace or Luke leaping up out of the carbonite pit in The Empire Strikes Back.</blockquote>
