The last Star Wars Saga Edition Preview is up

Star Wars Saga Preview #8

Starship and Vehicle Combat

Please note the previews were written months ago so they didn't know there were going to be a production issue delay.

It looks interesting. I'll need to review this a bit more before commenting further, but I'm somewhat hesitant. I definitely preferred Traveller T20's approach to space combat over that of D20 Future, and I wonder how the SECR stacks up against both.

Thanks,
Flynn

You know, the "ships remain in place during a dogfight" sounds like they've made Dogfight into a Grapple offshoot.

That's really neat. (and I wouldn't know if they did that in the previous edition, never read it)

 

[Ankh-Morpork Guard]

Very interesting.

I've never really had problems with the current Star Wars rules, but I really do love these changes. I'd say the vehicle/starship stuff seals the deal for me. Now its just a matter of getting the book and seeing how this works in play.

I am so glad to see this overhaul of the starship combat. When our group did a Star Wars campaign with the RCR rules the starship battles felt clunky.

I like the sound of the starship/vehicle combat rules too

Very interesting.

Isn't that the way it always is? You never know you wanted the new and improved until someone showed it to you...

Now, if this IS as improved as it's looking to be, I may fall in love with it despite the "per encounter" stuff!

C'mon June!

Isn't the book out now?

The very last paragraph reads:

NEXT TIME


Well, there is no next time, actually. This is the final preview of the Saga Edition rules. But if you want to learn more, all you need to do is pick up the new Star Wars Roleplaying Game: Saga Edition rulebook, which should be available by the time you read this!

Well, I am reading it. So it must be available.
