February SNSO: SAVAGE STAR WARS!


"Why, you slimy, double-crossing, no-good swindler. You got a lot of guts coming here, after what you pulled."

Attention Space Pirates!
Join us at a run-down Tatooine spaceport as we try to teleport off this rock! We'll either steal a spaceship or get enough credits together to smuggle ourselves out... before the bounty hunters on our tail catch up to us!

We'll be playing Savage Worlds in a Star Wars setting. Think Edge of the Empire without the handrails!

DECEMBER Star Wars: Rebels caught at the wrong place at the wrong time!


The premiere of the latest tale in the Star Wars saga, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is just a few weeks away! We can't contain our excitement an longer--we need some Star Wars RPG action!

Game master Matt Towle returns to run one of his favorite systems--Star Wars Roleplaying Game (Second Edition) by West End Games. Remember when Princess Leia seemingly gave up her pals to Governor Tarkin on the Death Star? It seemed as if she'd ratted out the location of the rebel base. Luckily for her Tarkin wasn't into blasting Dantooine just then. But you better believe he followed up on that tip--and woe to any rebel who didn't get the message to stay away!

Here's a synopsis for Matt's original, one-shot adventure: LAST CALL ON DANTOOINE!
A team of out-of-touch rebels arrive at the main rebel base on Dantooine, months after the Alliance has moved on. It won't be long before they have a little company--Imperial company! A free-form adventure that might lead anywhere, from the badlands of Dantooine to the spice mines of Kessel!
Can your team of rebels survive on the run from Imperials?

What other dangers await you if you escape the doomed rebel outpost? Climb aboard and find out!

FAR TREK! Bring Back Vulcan!


UPDATE: Far Trek has been rescheduled for Saturday, December 10 at Fantasy Flight Games.

Our tribute to everything Trek continues! This time it's an old favorite with a new twist as game master John Till leads a session of Far Trek, an indy, fan-created RPG set in the original era of the Star Trek universe. It combines material from 60s TV series, plus the 70s animated series, and various other sources.


The twist is the adventure itself--set in the Kelvin timeline of the new films. But everything still looks like the classic Trek you know and love. Here's the mission brief for his original adventure, BRING BACK VULCAN:
Can Romulans and the Federation work together to reverse the greatest disaster in the history of the Alpha Quadrant? See for yourself, as teams from both civilizations come together to rescue the Vulcan homeworld from oblivion.
Will the crew succeed in their plan to help the Vulcan race live long and prosper?


Beam up and join us to find out!
