So before then it unlikely any one region of space could stand up to the Imperial war machine.If you were going to start a campaign with defending a world then I would expect it to fail and perhaps the world the PC are defending gets burned by massed Star Destroyer fire and the ships that flee that world become the seed of the rebellion fleet. And the reason the fleet does hit and run tactics is because their homeworld is destroyed or enslaved (like the Mon Calamari).Of course most players aren't happy being on the losing side.By "Jedi killed off" how long after Ep III are you thinking, as the Jedi that die in that film are only the beginning of the Jedi purge, that could be an interesting adventure with the PCs being Jedi or friends of a Jedi on the run from the Empire.Although again its not the sort of adventure most players are use as it involves the PCs running away the whole time.I think this is one of the problems with this particular Era, because its the time when the Empire is winning, which generally means the good guys (the PCs) are losing. Most players like to win, the only victories that can be found are usually pretty small until the Battle of Yavin.</blockquote>
