Has anyone given their player's hirelings?
My (EotE) players are very interested in getting a larger ship, specifically a repair / carrier vessel. Sil 5 - 6. Most of these ships list dozens or hundreds of crew. Have you encountered that scenario? How did you handle it?
-
Interdictors
Has anyone used an Interdictor in their campaign? Was it mostly narrative, or did you use game mechanics around it?
-
Custom Ships?
Has anyone or anyone's players built a custom ship? I don't mean just adding the items & mods from the books, but building a whole ship?

EotE to AoR
My players are following the Han & Chewie path from smugglers / mercs to wanting to be part of something bigger, namely the fledgling Rebellion. They have done a couple of jobs for a small rebel cell. Has anyone mixed Duty, Obligation, and / or Conflict (for the Force sensitive in the group)?

I haven't played Blades in the Dark, but some of my players have. I really like the FFG/Edge and have built a pretty good collection of the books. So I am not looking to move. I also have some West End and WoTC Star Wars books as well.

Title is a little bit click-baity but relevant, honestly. Pretty decent interview with Sam Stewart, RPG manager.
As usual he can't answer as much as we'd like, but there's some tidbits of info peppered in.

Star Wars RPG - A Beginner's Guide
Really good video series by Tabletop Empire. Good way to get your newer players up to speed with the more important aspects of the game.

Share an NPC!
My current campaign is set on the planet of Caradu. A formerly metropolitan world devastated by the Clone Wars. We're playing in the direct aftermath of the war's end.
I can always use more interesting NPCs, give me a name, look, or even a short description of their motivation and I will put them in the game! (Assuming they're not a dumb joke🤣)
Example NPC: Gardner Prospas - An older human man, with graying auburn hair, a thick close-trimmed beard, and an easy smile. He is compassionate, and jovial. Prospas travels Caradu by wagon sharing his rare herbs and saplings.

Hello and Welcome
I didn't see a community out there for SWRPG, so I created it. I have been playing, for a couple of years and GM'ing since our group started playing. We passed Episode 25 a little bit ago and are going strong!
