Star Wars RPG: Edge of Rebellion

Fantasy Flight Games will release a limited edition beta-test rulebook for Star Wars: Age of Rebellion soon. The book will be available through Fantasy Flight Games' webstore and participating retailers. The Star Wars: Age of Empires beta-test rulebook will consist of 224 pages and will be softcover. It will be retailed at a MSRP of $29.95. The beta period will end on October 8, 2013.

There are three planned cross-compatible Star Wars RPG systems from Fantasy Flight Games. The first is the recently released Star Wars RPG: Edge of the Empire Core Rulebook. The first adventure for this system - Beyond the Rim - shouldbe released before the end of the 3rd Quarter. Star Wars: Age of Rebellion is the second system and Star Wars: Enter the Unknown the third.  Star Wars: Enter the Unknown is expected to be released during the 4th Quarter of 2013.

Star Wars: Age of Rebellion allows players to take the roles of Rebel Alliance members fighting the Galactic Empire during the Rebellion time period. Unlike the final version, this book will have much less art and background material because, being a beta, it is intended to generate feedback. For the same reason, the information on adversaries, equipment, and vehicles is abbreviated to focus on the playtesting.
