Starting things off we have what we normally have to start. This makes reading the book an exercise in masochism at times. Instead of commissioning new artwork that didn't suck, they recycled all the retardedly bad art from Star Wars d20. Okay, with that out of the way, let's get on to the actual book review.įirst of all, my biggest complaint: the artwork. Reasonably balanced compared to past editions, no retarded dark side 's got some hideous warts, but comparing it to Star Wars d20 is like comparing a thoroughbred stallion to your grandmother's starving, dying mule. This is like a massive breath of fresh air. * Star Wars Saga Edition: published by Wizards of the Coast in 2007. Seriously, it would be pretty amazing if it wasn't so pathetic. This guy has the inverse Midas touch: everything he works on becomes shit. Wiker, one of the worst professional game designers ever. It's not the worst roleplaying book ever published by Wizards (that would be Weapons of Legacy) or even the worst Star Wars supplement (that would be Power of the Jedi), but it was really bad. This game was pretty much a huge step backwards from d6 second edition in every possible way, and was both severely broken and severely retarded.

* Star Wars d20: published by Wizards of the Coast in 2000. It was actually a good gaming system if you and your players accepted the fact that jedi were simply better than everybody else, houseruled away the retarded dark side points rule, and gave all your players free character points to spend on knowledge skills (and only knowledge skills). This game was far less retarded than the original, but still both broken and somewhat retarded. * Star Wars d6, second edition: published by West End Games in 1992. This game was both broken and severely retarded. * Star Wars d6, first edition: published by West End Games in 1987. It's hard to really understand how different Saga Edition is, and why this is a good thing, without understanding the terrible history of officially licensed Star Wars roleplaying games. So, to benefit all of these people and maybe get a few more into the hobbie, here is a complete review of the new official system for Star Wars published by Wizards of the Coast (the people that brought you Dungeons & Dragons) - Saga Edition. I know that there have to be more complete nerds on this forum than just me, who also happen to enjoy Pen & Paper roleplaying.
