Something Extra for the Career Sourcebooks

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

I just picked up Enter the Unknown. I love the new material and the production values are up to FFG's usual outstanding level. However, I feel the book is lacking something.

Here's what I'd love to see as an extra in the career books:

A selection of planets in the style of the single page spreads in the core book somehow tied to the career. Star Wars is full of amazing locations and this would be a great way to add a bit extra.

It would have been great to get a bit on Csilla, Duro, and Toydaria as well as a couple of additional worlds of interest to explorers. Similarly, the Dangerous Covenants book could have the home worlds of the new races from that book and worlds of interest to hired guns. I know it's too late for both of these supplements, but it would be great to see in future career sourcebooks for Edge and the later lines.

What do you all think?

Not a bad thought, but since it is about Exploring I wanted more ideas on creating new planets (not pre-existing ones), fauna, flora, and dangers. That is what I found to be lacking.

Yeah, something like the first Planets of the Galaxy that west end did would have been awesome. Still, there's plenty of room yet to go on the game shelf!

I was also expecting the home planets of the new races. A guide for creating planets would have been useful.

For a minute I thought Desslok posted this...

Be careful, Desslok loves his avatar. ;)

I think it already had tons of stuff in it.

I assume we'll be seeing planets etc in the 'Suns of Fortune' type books rather than the career books.

I'd have preferred to see some adversaries, especially things for the Big Game Hunter to hunt, but I think it's a bit unfair to say that a book with new species, specialisations, talents, signature abilities, equipment, weapons, droids and ships is 'lacking'.

Plus there's some useful fluff to go with all that crunch.
