| Star Wars Miniatures | The Star Wars Miniatures collection offers a great board game that doesn't require too much time or space to play. The miniatures are also exactly the right size for use with the Star Wars Roleplaying Game, which I would highly recommend. The old roleplaying system was made by West End Games, which I haven't tried.

Not really aimed towards players. July 14, 2008
This book, Threats of the Galaxy, is a great addition to the Saga edition game. It provides over 100 stock characters, a couple of new character trees and a couple of vehicles. So, is this product for the just gamer who is always a character and never a GM, probably not. Because it is for the most part characters, the everyday player won't find much use out of it.
 Good read and usefull July 5, 2008

Threats of the galaxy is a great collection of information for both villian and hero NPC characters for all eras of the Star Wars galaxy.For the Saga edition of the role playing game.
Excellent Supplement June 28, 2008

Highly recommended for GMs. Although players can get a little bit of use out of this book, it will be more of a tool for GMs.
 A useful tool June 20, 2008
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I saw this book and had to have it. For I am GM who constantly does things on the fly, and doesnt preplan adventures. Face it, you have no idea where the group is going to go, and I hate "railroading" them. This book is perfect if you need some quick stats or just some random encounters. A lot of Useful info in this book. Only bad thing is that it is very small in pages, and I do not think its worth its full price, even at the discounted prepaid price I got. This book is maybe a 14.99 - 19.99 type book.
EDIT: (Dec 2008)
Now that I have used this book more since I first purchased it, I am quite happy I did, this is a great tool for GM's. Its full of great ideas for mini-adventures as well as enough to pre-plan a full blown out campaign. If I could re-rate this, I would give it 4 stars. Still, I wish it was bigger as in more pages, thus I can't give it 5 stars.

Wat Tambor & Droid Reinforcements
Maybe I'm having a brain fart, but do you have to follow the normal squad building rules when bring in the non-unique droids for this SA? It doesn't say from any faction, so I'm assuming you must follow the normal faction rules.
Female Minis Players
Out of curiosity how many girls do you guys have in your Minis Group. My LGS has two that shows up for tourneys on a regular basis, myself and another. Also how do the gals do in your events? Are they frequent attendees and what do they play?
I had a dream, it was weird.
I had a dream last night. It went like this:
I went to my LGS and bought a pack, I don't remember what it was, but I remember being sad about what I pulled. Until I opened the cards and there was a letter from Rob in there. It said "congratulations, you've won a tour of the factory and you also...

House rules for melee
Please let me know if this thread belongs in a different forum (customs perhaps?)...
Would like to hear what folks are using for house rules to help melee out. I know a lot of folks generally agree that melee is underpowered in the game, and I happen to be one of them (and yes I know a lot of...
Vong able to go into any army?
Can't remember where I saw this notion but somewhere it was suggested that the Vong could act as Fringe and be added to any army. Was this just an "idea" or something that's actually done in tournaments and whatnot? Personally I find the Vong near unplayable in any effective manner, but if they...
Oddball's CE
So, Oddball's CE says:
Allied characters with Pilot gain Grenades 20 and Penetration 20.
Does this mean that a Shistavanen Pilot does not benefit from his CE, because he does not have the Pilot ability? I'm assuming that's the way it works (see Nym's CE for a similar example).

Green Stuff?
Hello all you costomizers out there,
I was wondering what "green stuff's" official name was? And also, pretty much how to use it to sculpt minis or mini parts?
Thanks. :D
Looking for checklists
I seem to have misplaced some checklists and wondered if there's anywhere or anyone that could help me out?
I'm missing Force Unleashed, Bounty Hunters and Champions of the Force.
