Miniatures and Star Wars

By Arc 724, in Star Wars: Edge of the Empire RPG

hello, new to the forums.

Last time I played an RPG was back about 15 years ago. I played a Star Wars RPG that used A LOT of 6sided die for everything. Well after coming back to the miniature painting hobby I was looking to merge the miniature based RPG with a Star Wars RPG. Does this system accommodate for this or does anyone have any ideas how to do this?

I have a few Jedi miniatures I'm working right now for some friends and they LOVED the idea of merging the two.

You could easily do this with the Imperial Assault game FFG has.

Make up maps and scenarios and work out your combat in the IA setting then do between combat sessions with Edge of the Empire (or what not).

The RPG uses a special Range Band system that's intended to be kinda flexible and not lashed to any specific distances. Minis work just fine for showing relative location or defining bands, but you'll have to lean to ignore grids and exact distances on maps and just go with whatever the GM says.

Excellent idea. I will have to look into Imperial Assault.

I'm trying to make a game everyone can enjoy. I'm making an all-inclusive game where space/ground/roleplay come into
effect.

Whenever I use any miniatures, I'm usually inexact. "This square? That's the house. The stormtroopers are about . . . here. You guys come into the field about here. We'll call it medium range - okay, first PC?"

...kinda like how the D6 mini wargame actually was compatible with the RPG?

That was a great game! I made a space combat version based on those rules.

That's a nice story you have there. I will have to use that. Thank you for sharing.
