Star Wars Wednesday - Preview and....post view?
It’s November, which always brings a convention and often an end of the year project or two, and this year is no exception. There usually seems to be one or more previews of upcoming or soon to be released works, and that too is on schedule.
Read MoreStar Wars Wednesday - Ghosts of Star Wars Past
So, the title mixes the holidays a bit. and this being Halloween, there should be some sort of spookiness going on around here. Except I’ve already used my semi-decent Star Wars Halloween stories long ago, and don’t have anything new… But there are a couple of other things, and I’ve really missed too many weeks in a row…
Read MoreStar Wars Wednesday - Cyphers and Masks Unmasked
Star Wars Age of Rebellion Cyphers and Masks is interesting in that there have been few past Star Wars RPG resources devoted to spies and espionage. Infiltration and working behind enemy lines is obviously a major element in Rebel era games and touched on often in all kinds of sourcebooks. WEG's various Cracken's books were intelligence oriented, some with gear, though most concentrated more on providing NPC adversaries and some adventure ideas. Cyphers and Masks is the first to really pull together in one place, everything from character options to spy gear to campaign ideas, to new ways to use the narrative dice with skill checks.

The Clone Wars is making a huge comeback these days - on the screen and on the tabletop.

It's August, and time for Gen Con once again. This year saw some new Star Wars game announcements, mainly minis products.
Read MoreStar Wars Wednesday - Kantcon & 30th Anniversary Set Approaching
These two subjects aren't related, other than they both occur this week...
Read MoreStar Wars Wednesday - Edge of Solo
Kantcon is coming up in July, and I'll be running a new Star Wars RPG adventure, and a panel/workshop. The adventure is definitely going to be Solo deep dive of sorts....Kessel Breakout. The panel/workshop will build on some of the items I discussed at my GamerNation Con panel earlier this year, but more organized and focused more on process.
Read MoreStar Wars Wednesday - Solo is Great Fun
Solo released last week, and I had a great time watching it. There is room for all kinds of stories within the Star Wars universe, and this one is a more focused story on characters than obvious galaxy-spanning events. Go see it if you somehow haven't yet. Spoilers ahead.
Read MoreStar Wars Wednesday - Star Wars Nite at the K
Star Wars Day at the K actually fell on Star Wars Day this year, and a Friday at that, so it became Star Wars Nite at the K. Yes, last week was busy, so I'm a week late...
Read MoreStar Wars Wednesday - Beyond a Name
At GN Con, someone asked me a question about a creature I used in Star Wars Edge of the Empire Beyond the Rim. It took me off guard, so I've gone back to look at it, and here's the follow up on the answer...
Read MoreStar Wars Wednesday - GamerNation Con 5
Thanks to deadlines, work travel, and more, I've been remiss in posting these past few weeks. This lasted right up until last week when I was on my way to GamerNation Con 5, The Order of the Gamers (with a Harry Potter theme). I was the Guest of Honor this year, and it was a great time. Lots of Star Wars RPGs were played, and much more.
Read MoreStar Wars Wednesday - Farewell Rebels
This week featured the much anticipated end to Star Wars Rebels. It would finally answer some of the most pressing questions since the series began...to a point. Spoilers ahead.

Since I keep watching the Solo trailer released this week, I'd say it has my attention...
Read MoreStar Wars Wednesday - Resource Sources
When working on my own game and other projects, I periodically need photos or other resources for reference or other uses. Some might find them useful for their home Star Wars or other RPG game sessions.
Read MoreStar Wars Wednesday - New Year, New Game Previews
With the new year, some new Star Wars game previews have appeared in the past few days...
Read MoreStar Wars Wednesday - The Last Jedi Catching Up Post
With the holidays and various things happening, I didn't do my somewhat regular end of the year post...or any other posts. Time to catch up.
And, just in case even though its been a few weeks, warning: spoilers ahead.
Read MoreStar Wars Wednesday - Things to Watch During the Last Wait...
There's only one thing to talk about this week, and it's The Last Jedi....which of course won't release until Thursday evening. I'm still avoiding spoilers reasonably successfully, so here are a couple of other recent Star Wars things to watch while you're waiting...one with the cast of Rebels.
Read MoreStar Wars Wednesday - Various Updates
So, with a week to go before The Last Jedi release, I'm still largely in spoiler avoidance mode. I've done a pretty decent job avoiding the rumor mill. The only Journey to the Last Jedi books I've read it are a couple of out of order issues of the Captain Phasma comic. Out of order because there's been a couple of hiccups in my recent comic book store deliveries.
