[QUOTE="wingsandsword, post: 5295560, member: 14159"] No, and if WotC thought it wasn't cost-effective anymore, who really could afford it? Honestly, the more I think about it, I think that we don't [i]need[/i] any more support for a Star Wars RPG. Like, yes, need, no. Between 14 books for Saga Edition, over a dozen for the RCR and OCR editions, and over 100 for the d6 game, not to mention non-gaming setting sourcebooks that have been made (The New Essential Chronology, The Essential Atlas, ect.), do we really need more books, especially when the same turf is tread over and over so many times? (How many versions of a Rebellion-era sourcebook do we really need: One for SAGA, one for OCR, the Movie Trilogy Sourcebook for the d6 SWRPG?) We've got entire sectors of space detailed out down to each world in each system (Tapani sector from the d6 SWRPG box set Lords of the Expanse), we've got every canonical star system charted and located (The Essential Atlas), we've got loads of random tables for generating new worlds (Galaxy Guide: Scouts and Planets of the Galaxy from the d6 SWRPG), we've got loads of creatures and antagonists for each system, we've got the entire history of the setting charted out in significant detail from about 4000 BBY to about 145 ABY (and at least loose sketches of history going back to about 30000 BBY, with the Rakata and Hutt Empires that predate the Republic by a few millennia). We've got multiple editions of books full of starship stats (Starships of the Galaxy for OCR and SAGA). Enough minis have been made to run games in any era from Old Republic through Legacy, and the Starship minis are enough to run from the decades predating the Clone Wars through the late New Republic Era (only really missing Yuuzhan Vong ships and Legacy-era ships, or Pre-Ruusan Old Republic designs, or some space station minis) So, while it's sad that it's not supported, there is plenty out there to work with.
