SO I bought the core book, and we ran a couple of combats..personal, vehicle, and starship...YUK...totally non-cinematic...None of use were familiar with WEG's version ( Iwas out of RPGS for half of the 1980's and almost all of the 1990's), so I went out and found a copy. Again we ran a couple of combats, and we all decided it was much more cinematic and "fit" Star Wars much better..easier to run, easier to play..yep it does some have some loopholes, and D20 SW does some things better (I think the Force is handled a bit better in D20), bit overall we like WEG much better...We wrapped up that campaign, and I was looking forward to seeing the Revised D20 SW book to see if they had improved anything...pretty book, but it has made the combat systems even more complex and cumbersome. The Starship rules are like playing a wargame...Ill play Star Fleet Battles if I want a tactical starship combat minatures game..differents trokes for different folks...but IMO D20 SW is overall a step-down form the revised 2E WEG rules..</blockquote>
