Star Wars: Age of the Empire
Part of doing the final round of edits to the beta test document is giving everything a little more attention and polish. I was never really enthused about the name, it was something I just kind of settle on and was felt it was too generic or evocative enough for what I was going for. After re-watching The Force Awakens (for probably the fourth time…), … Continue reading Star Wars: Age of the Empire
Species of the Galaxy
Part of the final re-write is fleshing out certain sections. The species section has seen a significant addition. Unlike other settings that try to fight the ‘cantina effect,’ SW is where it originated. With Fantasy AGE races having fewer things that differentiated them, it became more important to give each a trait that added a benefit while not merely giving an extra ability focus. UNCOMMON SPECIES … Continue reading Species of the Galaxy
Update and The Scoundrel
Unfortunately, progress on finishing up Age of Star Wars is a little behind. Life stuff aside, editing and tightening-up certain game mechanics has taken longer than expected. Not the least of these is the scoundrel class. It is the only class that has not seen a whole of playtesting. Hopefully that will change after Wednesday night when I will be running a one-shot. The class as … Continue reading Update and The Scoundrel

Age of Star Wars Preview
Below is a preview of the print-friendly version of Age of Star Wars. Still working on balancing on embellishments with keeping it non-ink intensive. As it is meant for print, it will not have some of the hyperlink functions seen in the Beta test document. Enjoy and let me know what you think! Continue reading Age of Star Wars Preview
Force Powers Reference and Errata
I apologize for the quality of the Age of Star Wars Beta. I have found numerous errors as I have been combing through it for the final product, but none more so than what I found amongst the Force Powers. Luckily, none were in the descriptions and it has not caused an issue so far at the table, but when there is a discrepancy between … Continue reading Force Powers Reference and Errata
