I and some of my friends have been playing d6 Star Wars for years and when D20 SW have published, we just disappointed. One of my friends have clearly state that he will never ever play d20 SW (FYI, he really loves both SW trilogy and DnD 3e).IMHO, there were 2 very big problems. Classes, and starship/vehicle combat.Classes are not balanced at all. And for role playing purpose, old d6's templates were far much better. Also, I hate some very popular character concepts being prestige class (bounty hunter! starship pilot!). Also, I can't really understand why Soldier, expected to be a combat expert, have the worst defense value.Starship/vehicle have fixed AC and skill of the pilot was almost irrelevant. It is definitely NOT Star Wars like. In d20 SW, Millennium Falcon cannot survive the attack of Star Destroyer Devastator.And, why we cannot play droids in this edition? I must allowed to be a protocol droid!Still, I think combat system itself is good. It is almost 3e indeed. So it is good for playing lightsaber combat.By the way, one of my friends have mixed d20 SW with DnD3e and ran a fantasy/space opera campaign. And they were enjoying it. So, maybe d20 SW was just not SW-like and not so bad as a kind of space opera RPG.</blockquote>
