One thing I need to mention is that Endurance has changed to Fortitude, and will be referring to it as such from this point forward (or until it changes it again…). Although it seems out of theme, I included the Cold Arcana and will be creating two or three additional arcana in the future. Otherwise, the success of Force Power stunts showed me how individualized … Continue reading Mythic Magic: Arcana Stunts
With the launch of Age of Star Wars, I decided to go back and update Expanded Classes with the revisions that have been made at the table after play. With the release of the Fantasy Age: Bestiary (which deserves a review, but the short of it is: it’s amazing and essential if you are interested in running Fantasy Age), I decided to try the ranger … Continue reading Expanded Classes 1.75
I just want to thank everyone for their encouragement. This ended up being a huge project and it could not have been done without your support. ~Bests, Dustin Star Wars: Age of the Empire (10/1/2016) REVISIONS: Wow, thanks everyone for your interest. Hours old and already tons of downloads! However, a few people have already pointed out some typos/omissions. I have corrected these in the … Continue reading Star Wars: Age of the Empire Launch!
Unfortunately, AGE of the Empire will not be launching this week. I just ran out of time. Part of the process has been incorporating things on the blog that did not get included in the playtest document. Here is a run-down of some of things being added: Kel Dor: One of the coolest things in the prequels for me was kel dor. They are an … Continue reading AGE of the Empire Update
One of the classes missing from Enrique Bertran’s Age of Rebellion was the diplomat class. I like ‘face’ classes and felt that the scoundrel fulfilled that role. I also wanted to emphasize Leia’s role as a rebel spy and covert operative, using her position to aid the rebel cause and her cunning to subvert the Empire. After some discussion regarding the diplomat, I decided to … Continue reading The Art of Diplomacy: The Diplomat Class
Happy Labor Day! Here is a preview of the first few chapters of AGE of the Empire. UPDATE I realized there is a pretty glaring typo and have added another chapter to the preview! Age of the Empire Extended Preview Continue reading Preview

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
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
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
