Star Wars Wednesday - Number One

Yesterday, I got out to see The Force Awakens again, so I - and everyone who saw it - contributed to today's announcement that it is now number one for the domestic box office. Amazing. 

Beyond that, this is another one of those wide ranging posts...

Author Jason Fry offered up a tour of his office and boundless Star Wars library. 

I've made steady progress in digging out my own office, which will be instantly undone by the next project or attempt to organize some other part of my office. That's my way of saying that most of the time, any tour of my office would feature a pile of books and games obstructing my path to my shelves of other books and games.

Star Wars Force and Destiny made Game Informer's list of Best Tabletop Games of 2015 (along with a few other FFG board game and RPG titles).

Starwars.com posted an X-Wing vs TIE Fighter (computer game) soundboard.

And finally, this isn't directly Star Wars related, but RPG GMs and players may find it useful. The New York Public Library posted a collection of 180,000 high resolution items for public use. Some could be useful for a variety of RPGs - maps, pictures, story ideas, etc.
