X-Wing conversion for EotE and AoR

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

So, this is not one of those "should I" or "how do I" threads. This is an "already have" thread - so if you want to debate the merits of doing so, this is not the place for it.

That said, I have put together some rules that I created to use for my home games into a pdf for those of you that are interested. We use space battles sparingly, usually once every story or so. Some missions see little to none, others see a sortie or two.

That said, the few space battles we have had went smoothly using these rules. I'm interested to get constructive feedback on improving them!

As I say in the opening, they're intended to accentuate the story, not hinder it, and I give a few guidelines on when to use them and not, so - here you go!

This is great and well thought out! I totally intend to try to implement this into our current campaign which just started Saturday night, we quit right as they were about to leave Tatooine in the Beginner's module -- perfect time to break out the X-wing for this Friday's session!

Thanks for the vote of confidence, regal! I actually have updated a typo and adjusted the download link accordingly. I'll try and keep it updated as changes come in.

I love the positive constructive energy you bring to the game. Good stuff!

Thanks Yivrael! I really hope this helps people, I know that I want to have s many tools in my toolbox as I can get for telling the story I have in my head, so when I get a chance to share that toolbox with others I feel like it's my responsibility to do so!

Plus its just fun digging into the "game". Now if X-Wing would start releasing ships like the Loronar E-9, Sorosuub Lux 3000 yacht etc...good time to be a Star Wars and tabletop fan.

What I really want is a Kazellis light freighter ... I've wanted one ever since I saw it in one of the old West End game books ... so pretty ...

Yea, though, I have to admit, it's a good time overall to be a Star Wars gamer.

Did you see they're releasing the Tantive IV for X-Wing? That and the Medium Transport from Empire.

They're also doing another scale that will cover fleet actions and Capital Ships called Epic.
