beyond the rim

By syrath, in Star Wars: Edge of the Empire RPG

I picked up mine last night. Seems gaming shops got it early? I was very excited. I planned on getting it from Amazon, but I was able to get it three weeks early at my local gaming shop. Good job!

I've briefly read into it. I plan on incorporating it later in my ongoing campaign, so the PCs will have much more XP under the belts than the "brand spanking new PCs" it's designed for, so I'll require some work on my part. The plot looks interesting to me with a lot of focus on exploration. It also seems to give a lot of examples for using Advantage/Threat/Etc. in various checks, which is nice for the GM.

Mine showed up unexpectedly just now. It's a very pretty book, as you would expect. I don't recognize any of the art. Looking forward to reading it, and running my spouse through it.

Sell me more, FFG!

If you have specific questions, I'll gladly share what I can.

So what is the Treasure, been dying to know? :)

I was totally thrown off guard by this, wasn't really following the release schedule so it was an unexpected surprise, and with the palava over the dice shortage I went and ordered mine straight away.

I'm thinking the semi-structured story line I'll probably use at a university RPG where I won't know people as well, my home group would probably just go right off the rails...

I ran a sidebar game with the CFS Republic last week (the Titanic in space). How is the story compared to that? I don't want my players saying we already did that.

Basically, I have an amazon gift card to cover BTR, or should I skip this and use it on Enter the Unknown when its available.

Beyond The Rim really isn't anything like "Space Titanic." Rather than being on a ship that's doomed, the players are looking for a ship that crashed around twenty years ago.

If you mean they found the CFS Republic, then the setup works great, explains why they'd be contacted for this one in the first place ("Hey, they found one ship, they're perfect for finding another"). The presence of survivors and the extensive Imperial presence in the whole thing is also a potential difference from the Titanic thing if memory serves.

Got mine yesterday at my FLGS, was very please/surprised.

Ah, yes very nice. Sold, then!
