In the battle between Obi-Wan and Vader, old Ben defeated his old padawan and escaped the Death Star with young Skywalker in tow. Being a bit more careful, he managed to persuade Leie and the rest of the rebellion leaders to abandon station and escape. There was a small skirmish at Yavin, but no try to destroy the Death Star.Now with Vader at the brink of death and an old legend re-appearing, Moff Tarkin tries to seize power. He has the most advanced piece of technology in his hands and is not afraid to use it. He also starts the propaganda machines, telling everyone the emperors true nature, i.e. "outing" him as a force user and Sith master. So now, one year later, we have three camps: The rebellion, where Obi-Wan is one of the new leaders and two Empires. Due to the fact that Tarkin has the death star, he was able to get quite a few systems in his faction. Now that the escaped Vader is apparently restored to a semblance of health once again, things might heat up a bit.So much for the general background. Whether this actually manages to have a huge impact on the party will be determined, depending on whether they want to stick to a smuggler's campaign or join the rebellion. Currently, I'm using lots of SpaceMaster material to create a few star systems with much political infighting. Local dynasties + 2 empires + rebellion + players == fun.</blockquote>
