FFG have the licence for Star Wars hobby games.

This'll probably mean a big lots-of-nice-plastic-minis game like Descent at some point. Maybe chasing around the Death Star, with lots of cardstock corridors and white plastic Stormtroopers, temping me to buy it even if I never play it?

And it might mean a shiny Dark Heresy RPG. Or a lots-of-little-bits-for-players-to-lose game like their variant of WFRP. Still, it's not the first time Star Wars has been attached to a system I don't get or want. It's also the most hacked licenced setting, seems like just about every game gets the "can you do Star Wars with it?" test at some point. I've played it in first and revised edition WEG, first edition d20, Feng Shui, Cinematic Unisystem, boffer LARP, non-boffer LARP...

I could talk about Stephen Hawking being alive despite the wicked NHS Sandmen's best efforts to kill him, but I imagine my grumpiness about what is now being called Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay would make for more amusing and less furious reading.

Although I'm half tempted to buy a Dictaphone so I can podcast Liam's response...

Pegasus includes playable Cylon leaders with random Agenda cards that change their victory conditions.

Making a common viewer complaint into a rule amuses me greatly.
