New RPG and Minis products
We're on a roll now.....

As already mentioned, the much anticipated Starships of the Galaxy is due out in December. The first preview is now up, which is a ship well known to d6 RPG players - the Ghtroc Freighter. Check out the new art and deck plan (by Christopher West).

There are also a number of products showing up on Amazon, but aside from the Force Unleashed Campaign Guide, I can't confirm or deny any of it. Amazon has been both correct and incorrect in the past in terms of actual products and their release dates.

On the Star Wars Minis front, now out as a Target exclusive is the Battle of Hoth set. I've yet to see one of these in person yet, but they should be available now. There is at least one exclusive mini, plus you get a re-posed AT-ST, a snowspeeder and a collection of other minis you may have seen before like Han on a Taunton, which I've heard referred to as the Hantuan. This set is good if you're looking for those specific pieces or are wanting to get started in the miniatures game.

And, of course, the Force Unleashed set was released earlier this month (see previous posts).

The Star Wars pages at WotC are seeing new activity - and often on days other than just Thursday:

Star Wars Miniatures updated errata

The return of the Tips and Tactics column, for both the RPG and minis games.

The minis customization articles continue.

And, in case you missed it, the Saga errata was updated in October.

In fact, you might want to check out the downloads section for other RPG freebies...like the Tech Specialist feat and don't forget to look at the conversion guide! There are a few additional species hiding in there.

And while I'm covering overlooked items, don't forget that there is a nearly complete minis database (doesn't have the current sets yet).

I am tempted to get into the minis. The problem is, I don't know anyone in my area who plays the "Star Wars" RPG and also, I'm not very good at them.

Well, they were more right than wrong in the past, so one can hope!!! The Ghtroc looks fantastic (much better than in de WEG-days)! I cannot wait for this sourcebook to hit the stores! And I hope that this time, many sourcebooks (and online updates) will follow!!

I have a few suggestions about that, but I think there are enough for a good post on the subject. Maybe when I have more time this evening...
