Summary: Beggining Role Playing
Review: I have to say that this book is excellent for begginers since it uses the simple d6 system(six sided dice) the book is very specific in listing what to do if such and such a thing happens. I loved learning how to GM(GameMaster)and play a character, they give you some already made character sheets in the back, some are Jedi's and gamblers or even a kid. Like I said, this is a great book to learn with.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: May the Force be with you..
Review: I picked up this book about a year ago and I have yet to be dissapointed. The format is really easy to get into with the narrative intros and highlighted basics so that you can start your adventure as soon as you want. For all Star Wars fans, (inluding the nitpickers, who need to relax) and roleplayers who want more than just guns and trolls. P.S. Hey Bradley, keep up with the times before you mock others. Wizards of the Coast OWNS TSR, which now has the Star Wars license. Read a little more often.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fast-paced, easy-to-learn roleplaying game
Review: I've been playing the Star Wars RPG since 1989, and this edition of the game is the best ever. Not only is it easy for a first-time gamer to read and understand, it builds on and expands the material for more experienced gamers. Unlike earlier editions, this book includes plenty of starship, vehicle, equipment, and character data to allow a novice game master to host a session without a library of Star Wars RPG books. Also, its rules are streamlined from the first printing of the 2nd Edition (most noteworthy are a simplified scaling system for large vehicles vs. smaller ones and a quicker and more flexible round sequence). Most importantly, the format is much better for learning and finding information; for example, all equipment, vehicles, and droids are toward the back, while all character creation chapters are clustered at the front.

As an avid roleplaying gamer of many years experience, both familiar with the classics and open to the newer systems, I have to give Star Wars: RPG the highest rating of all. For simplicity and capturing the Star Wars spirit, there is none better.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: STAR WARS SIMMING/RPGING
Review: I've been playing this for awhile, but after I got this book, everything got REALLY clear. If you like SIMming or RPGing, or just want to learn more about STAR WARS, get this book. By The Way, (BTW), Star Wars SIMming and RPGing means you play an interactive Star Wars game with other people.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent! You must get this game!
Review: I've been with SWRPG ever since 2nd Edition came out, and I have to say that the R&E book is well worth the investment. It clears up a lot of grey areas that were present in the 2nd Edition book and has much greater resources from a beginning gamer's point of view. It also offers many fresh perspectives to those who have some experience with the game. All around, a worthwhile purchase.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: HHHMMMM...
Review: I've heard that this is a good RPG, easy to learn and fun to play. But I have no way of knowing. I ordered this product two months ago, and it still has not arrived. as I am living on an airbase in Japan, I have no other way of getting this game. I hate this company.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fabulous Book
Review: In my opinion the STAR WARS RPG book is excellent. Learning how to play the STAR WARS RPG was never so easy because of all the examples in the book of certain rules. The most important stuff is highlighted so that if you need information on a specific topic you don't have to read the entire book again. Superb!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: PDG - Pretty Damn Good
Review: Of all the Roleplaying games out, i was glad to see one that successfully game from a movie universe. Unlike MiB and the such, this was a good book and i found it to be quite accurate. I was also glad to see a very good sci-fi rpg rather than another fantasy one. The game is also good in that it kept up with supplements and was able to expand the universe. The game was in depth and accurate, but has great playability and is quite easy to learn. After one or two games of playing, one gets the hang of it and understands the rules very well. It is also very easy to game master and this book helps. And Wizards of the Coast do not make AD&D you nut job Benjamin. TSR makes AD&D. Wizards of the coast makes card games, numbnutz!
