Game Setup
Last Time on Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game: The heroes leave Ammud and ar contacted by Urshia on the way off world, asking for aid in return for their informant about the contact that told the Xalsis Collective about the heroes being connected to the Rebel Alliance. But immediately the Pykes arrive and hail the ship, ready to board the Silver Siccoro. The heroes are forced to fall and return to the asteroid base in the Umgul sector, where they discuss this with their Rebel contacts, who redirect the suspicion of a spy back on the team. The heroes leave to deliver the Kowakian Monkey Lizard to the Royal Family on Djek 4, where they are treated to a five-star day and a deserved reprieve, until the Pykes arrive and deliver an ultimatum. Let the pykes have the contract on Djek or else. The heroes ignore the threat and as they are leaving, the Tre decides to stay and be trained by a former Jedi in the royal family, and the ISB is waiting for the heroes. They fight through ISB, retaining Djek’s alliance with th eRebels, and they return to Ammud to talk with Urshia about the leak. She tells them it’s their Rebel contact Gursh Forchees, and they try to contact Tiree about him. Meanwhile Tre is seeing the dark side in his new master and reaches out to the group. They all decide to pick him up before heading back to the rebel base, only to have the ISB show up. They evade the starship and arrive back on Djek where the royal family denies knowing where Tre is, but if the heroes can quell a minor revolt against the royal family, they may be able to locate him. Tre defends himself against his master and runs away. Will the heroes ever reconnect with Tre? Are the Royals of Djek still with the Alliance? And what is the truth about Gursh?
Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game 30th Anniversary Edition
Few books or games have had as enduring an impact upon the Star Wars galaxy and its fans as Star Wars™: The Roleplaying Game. Originally published by West End Games in 1987, it arrived at a time when the future of the Star Wars galaxy was uncertain, and it captivated a whole generation of gamers with rules and guidelines that made it possible to design and enjoy adventures truly worthy of the Star Wars universe and its ongoing space opera.
Now Fantasy Flight Games is proud to offer faithful recreations of this influential rulebook and The Star Wars™ Sourcebook. Our Star Wars™: The Roleplaying Game 30th Anniversary Edition is a limited edition set of both books, printed with higher quality than the originals and packaged in a stylized slipcase.
These books were sent to Timothy Zahn as references when he started to develop Grand Admiral Thrawn and his Thrawn trilogy. They introduced materials that were later adopted into Star Wars canon, such as the names of alien races like the Twi’lek, Rodians, and Quarren. They even inspired members of the Lucasfilm Story Group as they worked on their writers’ bible.
Now, Fantasy Flight Games is proud to return Star Wars: The Roleplaying to print as a collectible set of two high-quality, hardbound books presented in a stylized slipcase. You’ll find all the original game materials—just as playable as ever—and they’re presented with the same graphic design and fake, in-universe Star Wars advertisements for the Imperial Navy, the R2 astromech Droid, and more.
Even the books’ use of black-and-white, blue ink, and full color sections have been recreated, along with its use of still photos and concept art, some of which have been updated for this new 30th Anniversary Edition. Finally, the books come with a foreword by Pablo Hidalgo, one of the creative executives on the Lucasfilm Story Group.
