Star Wars RPG From Fantasy Flight Games: Everything You Need To Know

[@SimonChambers]

Yay! I made the list of advice- thanks for a really good review of the systems! I havent' picked up the other games yet, and I'm not sure I want to drop the money on core rulebooks for the other 2 games. But I'm really enjoying the EotE game and look forward to the next session!

[@devonlee5298]

Thank you for the in depth review, a lot of intersting information

[@Lone_GamerUK]

Loved this, thanks for the all the thoughts, and review. Space Cowboys, War & Wizards (nice one). Just getting into these not sure why I'm buying them as no game group to play with irl. Watched some of the crazy loose fun story telling plays of this on Yogacast channel, and unsure of dice at first but the more that I've learned the more unique and cool the dice story telling is! ATM I'm drawn to the rougher wilds of Edge of Empire, and unsure how important to get all different rulebooks eventually or not. But love SW, RPG's, Call of Cthulhu etc. Are there unique details on each of the different GM screens do you know? Super detailed thoughts & very helpful - thanx. ❤👍

[@jasonbratley9924]

Really enjoyed your review.

[@Standby_JRB]

Is it even possible to buy this game and dice anymore?

[@TheByteknight]

At least you mentioned WEG's Star Wars back in the good old days..

[@tuebecksaarie9601]

Awesome overview. Thanks

I'm a newbie to Star Wars in general (more of a Trekkie personally) but my boyfriend has been into it for a very long time. We're both into D&D/TTRPG's, and I thought it would be fun to find a Star Wars TTRPG to run for us and friends. I had no idea there'd be so many different ones! I just want a Star Wars TTRPG that is comprehensive in the information and the story can be set at any point in the Star Wars timeline, allows you to play a variety of Classes such as Jedi as well as like, bounty hunters, pirates, etc. If anyone can point me to a specific SW TTRPG that would fit my specific needs, I would immensely appreciate it! I'm perfectly fine with homebrewing some extra details, I just need the base information to be good.

If I were you I’d take a look at Star Wars REUP it’s a fan made update for Star Wars D6 filled with content and the rule book is available online for free. Iirc REUP specifically has some guidelines for different time periods and is pretty much able to be dropped into any era. D6 still has a pretty large fan base so there’s a lot of fan made content for it. Ffg is the current Star Wars rpg that’s in stores. The three core books and the dice system are probably the biggest hurdles to getting into it the game. The three core books aren’t all essential purchases to play the game, I personally only got Edge of the Empire and Force and Destiny as they’re less specialised than Age of Rebellion and can be used in a wider range of settings. Whilst the equipment and vehicle content in the books are based around the original trilogy the rules and classes pretty much fit any era you’d wanna play, there’s again a very large fan base that have created a ton of home brew content to fill in the gaps. It’s worth noting that there are some supplement books available that contain content from both the clone wars and pre rebel eras if you’re interested in those settings.

@@AtomicBanana2000 Just now saw this, thank you so much, super helpful!!

[@KageAkarui]

Good on you for reading original Star Wars and not starting with Disney Wars garbage.

[@gamingwithjoseph714]

Is there a specific site where I could get certain games I want? I want to try and get the force and destiny stuff but I also heard the edge of empire is really good too

[@daedalus1]

The lounge singing at the beginning was good. Not quite Bill Murray level, but close. Cheers!

[@Mop-Tollsy]

The pronoun thing is actually very accurate to starwars, right out of the hero with 1000 faces,

[@CountAdolfo]

Yup. You are right. Your pronoun nonsense is nonsense. There are ACTUAL issues with the game and you waste time on nonsense. You didn't even address the glaring problem with the mechanics when dealing with healing or repairing droids. Seriously, leave the SJW crap out and focus on the real issues.

[@Shanezkool]

Agreed.

[@wickan7333]

Could anyone help me out? I'm wanting to play a Age of Rebellion Campaign using the Dawn of Rebellion Era Sourcebook (Give it them Star Wars Rebels/Rogue One vibes) however, some of my players are wanting some force related journey for their characters (Like Ezra in Rebels etc) Since I've already got the AoR core book and the Era sourcebook, do I need the Force & Destiny beginner game or corerule book for the force rules if my players want to go down that path?

[@notesontabletoproleplaying9576]

The AoR has a small section on Force Powers, but definitely doesn't go into much detail about them. The easiest, but most expensive solution would be to shell out for the full Force and Destiny book, but there is probably enough info online through 3rd party sites to give you the gits of it.

[@Azrealophion]

Well…you can’t pronounce Timothy Zahns name correctly and we do not care if you want to identify as Ze Zem…address the game and not your imaginary reasons to complain.

[@DelayofUpload]

Where did he mention pronouns? I see that mentioned several times, did he remove it or did I just miss it?

[@Reaper2127.]

@DelayofUpload it is at 29 minutes. It is his first complaint.

[@justinsane7832]

seems like all the force and destiny core stuff is all sold out everywhere :/ sucks because I have 4 new players (including myself) that wanna get into but now can't.

[@martinbowman1993]

You had me up to the pronouns part.

[@Shanezkool]

Agreed.

[@richardhead7937]

I turned it off as soon as he said it.. Ain't nobody got time for that gendertard BS!

[@Freds911NatureCall]

Was interested until you got your butt hurt by pronouns. lol.

[@Shanezkool]

Agreed.

[@Azrealophion]

Agreed
