StarWars the Roleplaying Game d6 rules return!
« on: August 18, 2017, 05:38:38 pm »
It may not be SAGA but it looks like FFG may be releasing the SWRPG that WEG produced in honor of its 30th anniversary. 

I've never looked at FFG's SWRPG because I've often considered SAGA and WEG to be two sides of the StarWars Roleplaying coin.  If I want "hard" stuff I go for my SAGA rules but if I want "free flowing, make things up as I go" rules I'd go with the d6 version and its mountains of dice.

"Bucket of dice" is what I hear people call D6, but this is cool. It's probably 1st edition, given it's a 30th anniversary thing. But it is cool to see it back.

Personally, I go for Savage Worlds for ease, but I do miss the old WEG Ghostbusters and Star Wars now and then.
