WEG STAR WARS COLLECTION LIST

[RyanDarkstar]

I found mention of Fate Points on this site, which seems to corroborate your memory.

Question for you Whill, or anyone else who might know.

Years ago I downloaded a list called the Star Wars Collector's Bible from a site called Sandcrawler.com
In the section listing boxed campaigns they listed "Corporate boxed set". It said it contained a corporate sector player's guide, maps etc. This was listed between the Lords of the Expanse and Darkstryder so it appears they meant it as a seperate and different product. It is stated to be released in 1998 and retailed for 30.00

Does anyone know if this is an actual product?

I figured as much, every other source I have checked never mentioned it, but nor did they ever mention the Swedish box set versions of the core books, so I hoped perhaps it was just a rare piece that I can set my sights on.

I guess I stick to finding the Masters of the Universe rpg and the other swedish Star Wars box sets as my holy grails.

I will skim the Thrawn Trilogy sourcbook tonight and see if it reprinted the fate point reference or if it was updated correctly.

Whill, congratulation for having such a magnificent collection. I have spent few years on collecting WEG supplements and did not even reach half of your collection. The thing I am interested in - as a GM what is your favorite adventure supplement?
One additional remark - to a large extent WEG owes the SW mood to Allen Nunis graphics. Are there any information why he ceased to create graphics for later supplements? He would make Rules of Engagement a lot better than it is – I decided not to buy it due the style of the graphics.

This week I repurchased the 1e adventure module Riders of the Maelstrom. When I got the 2e republication of this adventure in Classic Adventures: Volume Three, I didn't look at it closely to realize that the 2e version leaves a lot of stuff out. I got rid of the module except I kept the fold-out color map of the Kuari Princess. Now when I wanted to have the 1e module again, it was kind of expensive until I found one on eBay that was sold without the map I already had, so now I have another copy of the module. (Maybe it is even my original copy that I had sold without the map – I don't have any way to confirm that since I never wrote in it.)

Seconded on Mike Vilardi's art. I appreciate Allen Nunis' contribution to the old WEG books, but the much cleaner feel of Vilardi's art always seemed superior to me.

I got to thinking about my collection recently, and not for good reasons. My hometown was recently struck by a pretty severe wildfire that burned into the western suburbs before the wind shifted. Over a thousand homes burned to the ground, and the fire has burned nearly 200,000 acres in the last two weeks. I was out of town the night of the worst of it, and had to describe to family members what items I wished to save as they prepped to evacuate, and there was no way I could ask them to evacuate my books collection. Out of everything I could've lost, that's what figured most prominently in my mind.

Fortunately, the fire lines stopped a couple miles west of my home, and we never had to actually evacuate, so for now, the danger is past.

As far as my collection itself, it's easier for me to list what books I don't have:

Galaxy Guides 1, 3 & 5
The Introductory Adventure Game
Miniature Battles & Imperial Entanglements
The Solitaire Adventures (Imperial Double Cross, Jedi's Honor & Scoundrel's Luck)

I didn't bother with the Galaxy Guides because, IMO, they're duplicates of information found in the Movie Trilogy Sourcebooks, and I'm more interested in the information than simply owning the book.

Everything else has a 2E emphasis; if something was available in 1E and 2E, I bought the 2E version. The major exception was a 1E copy of Tramp Freighters, which I bought specifically because there was critical information removed from the 2E version that could still be found in the 1E copy.

At the moment, I'm considering expanding my copy of the core 1E books; I already have the 1E Rulebook and the Rules Companion, and I'd like to add 1E copies of the Star Wars, Alliance and Imperial Sourcebooks to that.

I'm so glad to hear your home is out of danger! My wife's aunt, uncle and cousins saw the fire from their backyard before they evacuated, but thankfully the fire department successfully stopped its spread in that direction so their neighborhood was spared.
