I was wondering which books would be most effective in the running of a smuggler campaign or adventure.

Main Rulebook, Tramp Freighter's Guide, Platt's Smuggler's Guide, Platt's Starport Guide, Platt's Pin-Up Calander (Oups, that goes back in the "Secret Space"), The Far Orbit Project (For rules on Black Markets).

That's about it, really. I think all but the Far Orbit Project is available for DL via PDF in the "Tools" section of the Forum.

That'd be in the deepest most regions of my mind. That's where my imagination is.

You sure you want to find that, Esjs??? Twisted Evil

Pirates & Privateers has a ton of smuggler ships, too.

*Smacks Head* Baka Ray. Forgot that one.

It has almost all the Freighters that were ever published in the RPG books in it! With STOCK stats instead of modified ones that you usually see.

You can generally find ship pictures online though. While it's nice to have the stats and write-ups in a book. :)

Any story about pirates/smugglers can be adapted to Star Wars RPG by changing the names. Try "smugglers" at the library. Your best source is your own imagination.
