One question - how much in the way of wealth will characters have? If you go by the official-ish FAQ it should be about 144,000 credits (I think), but I dunno if you'd want something lower or higher.

I'm pretty ignorant about the setting (just a casual fan of SW, if fan is not too strong a word), but I've enjoyed KotOR 1 and 2 so I think this could be fun. Are the rules the same as those in the KotOR games or is there some other easily accessable sourse of rules I can use, an SRD or similar?
The higher level games sound more interesting to me. Generally low level games give the players too few options for my taste both in and out of combat.

To those who don't know much about legacy era I think this article http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Sith-Imperial_War gives a good impression about what has been happening in the galaxy for the last decade. To put it short there was a war between the new empire and galactic alliance. The empire won. Darth Krayt assassinated the emperor and took his place. The jedi were again driven to hiding and New Sith Order rose to dominance. That's about where the galaxy stands in 130 ABY. Later it will be revealed that the emperor didn't really die and a "civil war" in the empire will occur.

Woo, I guess I did good with this game concept.
Official rules posting for making characters tomorrow or Thursday. Level will be 9. I have some houserules I use that may influence the game, but nothing too earth-shattering.
As others have said, Legacy era is more than a century after the original films. None of the classic characters are around any more (except R2-D2 and maybe C=3P0). There are two major political entities, The Galactic Alliance (the current incarnation of the Rebel Alliance) and The Empire (the current incarnation of the Empire).
As of the beginning of the campaign, the Empire has just defeated The Galactic Alliance with the help of The New Sith Order. The Sith then proceeded to take over the Empire and kill most of the Jedi (who were, at the time, being led by Kol Skywalker, a descendant of Luke and Anakin).
Emperor Roan Fel (a pretty good guy, LN-LG I think, and I am fairly certain a descendant of both Han and Leia) has now started a new Rebellion against the Sith-run Empire, trying to get his Empire back.
There is also a rogue Admiral of the Galactic Alliance who is fighting against the Empire, but is unaffiliated with the Emperor's rebellion.
You will be playing a team of Sith (who tend more towards NE/LE in the future and less towards CE) who are assigned to specialized tasks in dealing with the various rebellions, rogue Jedi, and threats to the common peace.
