Congratulations to the winner, Mike, who posted a message on April 8th at 4:05pm. I am sorry for not posting these results sooner, my bad. COngrats to the winner and be on the lookout for more contests from newbiedm.com and Gator Games.
——————————————————–
I love Star Wars, and I love the idea of a SW roleplaying game. Why the idea? Because I have yet to actually play in a Saga campaign. I did play in a Gencon game, but that hardly makes for a full gaming experience of the system. That’s not to say that I’m not ready to go at the drop of a lightsaber, I have the Saga rulebook, a gm screen, some nice minis to get started with, some maps, and a real strong urge to play. So why haven’t I? Well, my 4e campaign is in full swing and I would hate to stop it to play something else. I don’t have enough free time to go around.
When I do run SW, and I will, I’ll run the Saga game, just to try it out. I love the old d6 system, but I want to try something new for SW, although d6 will always be my first SW love. I even created a scroll for my future campaign some time ago…
So, on to the reason you are here… because you are here for free stuff, not to read my ramblings, although I wish you’d do that too… 🙂 Once again, I’m partnering up with Gator Games in a giveaway… we’re giving you the chance to win a copy of Star Wars Legacy Era Campaign Guide. Here’s the description from the official site:
The Legacy Era Campaign Guide takes players and Gamemasters over a century after the Battle of Yavin to the dark future of Star Wars. Set during a three-way war between two factions of the Empire and the remnants of the Galactic Alliance, the Legacy Era is rife with great opportunities for adventures.
The galaxy has once again fallen under the shadow of the Sith and the Empire, bringing about an age of tyranny not seen since Palpatine took control of the Republic. Sith Lords openly work for Darth Krayt, and the galaxy has been devastated by war. The Dark Times have returned with rampant crime, oppression, and violence.
- Mix the best of the classic trilogy with the exciting elements of this Expanded Universe period.
- Contains adventure hooks and new character options.
- GMs can create campaigns that challenge the assumptions of the Star Wars Universe.
All you have to do is leave a message here, making sure you left an email address so we can contact you if you win. You can also enter via twitter, sending both @gatorgames and @newbiedm a message telling us it’s for the contest.

This contest for Star Wars: Legacy of the Force Campaign Guide will run until this Sunday night night April 11th, at 11:59pm eastern/8:59 pacific.

YEAH! i’m in too.. this is kinda funny cause i just created a Star Wars wall for my 3D Dungeon Tiles stuff. It’s for the Death Star. But i can’t call it death star so it’s called “technological Terror Wall”

I really like Star Wars: Saga Edition (even a little more than WEG Star Wars). I’d been meaning to pick up the Legacy Era Sourcebook, but there’s always been something that come up that stopped me, so I’m definitely interested in this.

yay for star wars and for free rpg books pertaining to it!
actually, i am currently dming a star wars saga edition campaign (my first time dming anything). it’s a pretty good system, despite how i think the force might be broken (but not beyond repair).
if i were to play it again i would modify some rules (like adding skill points). and i do love star wars.
it’s too bad wizards let go of the rights.

That would be awesome to have. I run a Star Wars club at the school where I teach, and we’ve been talking about adding SWRPG to the club activities. This would give us a great start! (Did I mention that we’re a small, inner-city Catholic school?)

Count me in! This is one of the Saga Star Wars books I don’t own. My son is a ridiculous Star Wars fan (he completely puts me to shame) and he has loved all the Legacy era novels he’s read. I’d love to run him through a campaign in that era.

I’ve played or run every version of Star Wars RPG to date. I’d love to have this book for the next time I run it (which should be relatively soon). May the Force be with you, Newbie DM!

I hope you read the comments, despite the fact that most people are here for the free stuff. (Besides I don’t qualify)
We played in a Legacy of the Force campaign. It was totally wicked awesome. Girl DM was a Twi’lek bounty hunter, I was a Duros pilot/comic relief and everybody else were Jedi. Highlights include:
*Me crash landing a Sith starfighter into 11 stormtroopers, and making it my personal vessal, renaming it the Vendaxian Eleven.
*Girl DM destroying the lightsabers of our Jedi players and them not knowing why. Best example of ‘don’t underestimate your female players’
*One player giving up a RL date with a Brazilian-Japanese model so that he could get the powers of Exar Kun.
*Another girl player guesting as a ditzy Duros and then convincing Imperials to make her commander of a Star Destroyer two adventures later.
* Me flying a shuttle with an open airlock and using it to scoop up Emperor Roan Fel and his bodyguards as they get sucked out into space.
