Star Wars World: Rebel Ops

Hey all.

I know there’s a fair bit of love for Andrew Medeiros’s Star Wars World around here, so (prompted by Aaron Griffin​) I thought I’d share a hack of that hack – Star Wars World: Rebel Ops.

The really short version of the changes from SWW is:

* Slightly tougher characters/less brutal combat.

* Different Force mechanics, mostly related to Corruption/Dark Side stuff and how that’s handled by the players and GM.

* 66% fewer Jedi playbooks, to match the era/scope.

* Three new playbooks: The Droid, The Partisan, and the Slicer.

* Changes to pretty much every other playbook, except (for some reason) Gearhead.

There’s a longer changelog thing on the front page.

Anyway: my group switched from FAE and have been playing with this for a couple weeks now, and it’s going well, so I thought I’d share the fruits of many late-night editing sessions.

  1. And for extra kick, I caught the new Old Republic trailer, and then went and reminded myself of the previous trailers. Maybe I’ll put together a one-shot.

  2. Document and the link are updated. We’ve been playing this hack for almost three months, now, and it’s holding up pretty well. We had a pretty brutal mission last session that cost our Partisan an ear, and our Ace one of her ships – things get VERY interesting when the dice take bad turn, but hey: at least you get to mark XP? 🙂
