My latest Star Wars RPG news, reviews and blog posts is up at Nuketown. It has reaction to the Saga Edition cancellation, new fan-created content from Saga-Edition.com, two new Star Wars-related podcast episodes, and much more.

After taking a few weeks off to play Arkham Horror, White Plume Mountain (D&D 3.5) and paragon-level Planetorn one-shot (D&D 4E), we’re returning to our Star Wars campaign this week. As a result, you can expect updates to the Bonus Feats index and some additional campaign write-ups as I reboot my brain into a science fiction frame of mind.

My review of the Knights of the Old Republic Campaign Guide is up on Nuketown. As you might imagine, this is an important book for our KOTOR campaign; we could have run the game without it, but it would have been a lot harder. The single best aspect of the book is its comprehensive history of the time peroid; there’s a lot there scattered through a dozen comic books and two video games, so its very useful to have a single campaign guide that pulls everything together.

My review of the Scum and VIllainy source book for the Star Wars: Saga Edition RPG is up on GameCryer.com

While not directly related to Star Wars, this blog post by campaign member Damon does a good job of why our gaming group ended up playing Saga Edition instead of D&D 4th Edition. Not every Blackrazor agreed with him, but I’d say he speaks for about half the group, and I think even those of us who liked 4E agree with at least some of what he says here.
