FFG Forum?

[cheshire]

We have a forum for the D6 and d20 versions of the game. Do we plan on having a forum dedicated to the FFG version of the game?

As far as I understand, yes. I asked the same here.

Yes, cheshire, I think a FFG forum is in our near future. Moridin (the site owner, for any who don't know) was in favor of the idea, and I haven't heard anyone against it, so it seems only a matter of time.

I suggest anyone with comments or questions on the system and/or the new beta post them in General Roleplaying for now; if there are a lot of FFG threads we could always migrate them to a new forum later.

I think to keep Holonetters in the loop in terms of official Star Wars RPG material, it would be prudent to have an FFG forum. In fact, I think we could also try to attract more gamers with an "Other Systems" forum, because there is an entire range of unofficial Star Wars RPG systems out in the wild free for download each with their own little community of players, like Star OREs (One Roll Engine), Savage Star Wars (Savage Worlds), RISUS Star Wars (RISUS), Star Wars Fate of the Galaxy (FATE). I think there might even be hacks for Barbarians of Lemuria and such. Star Wars gaming has gone so much out of the d6/d20 reserve it's not funny, and I think it's time the Holonet Forums capitalized on that and try to attract them here.

That's a good idea, Hish. I don't know how many people play those other games, but if this really is supposed to be the one-stop site for all Star Wars RPG, it seems best not to exclude them. Perhaps not each having their own set of forums, but having a single "Other" section would be good.

The FFG forum is now open.

Thanks, Moridin!
