As with most conventions this year, Kantcon was cancelled and is hosting an online version July 17-19, 2020. I’m running a pair of events - Star Wars Edge of the Empire (The Sandcrawler Gambit) and Genesys Android (Solar Storm). Both are adventures I created, though The Sandcrawler Gambit has been a regular con event for me for a while, including a previous Kantcon.

Read MoreStar Wars Wednesday - Rebels and Rogues
Rebels and Rogues...I feel like that would make a good title for something beyond a blog post. In any case, this week includes a few thoughts about how Rogue One and Rebels reveals details about the state of the Rebel Alliance, and how that might impact RPG sessions. Then I'll switch gears and note a few things about the rapidly approaching 2017 convention season.

Work has kept me so busy, that I'm way behind schedule here and elsewhere. I'm also fighting another bout of hand issues, not unrelated to the above, so that doesn't help. So, short and sweet for now...
Read MoreStar Wars Wednesday - Force Focus
Fantasy Flight Games' Star Wars RPGs each focus on different aspects of the Star Wars universe.
