As you know... I dont know much about this stuff... and I went to WestEndGames.com well, that got me confused. I found a thing names D6 adventures, that had things like reflexes and stuff for at. then there the torg, and the masterbook, and all sorts of stuff! Some one explaine it to me? (I am fealing really stupid right about now)
Edit: Ok I think I sort-of got it now, at least I figured out all I need to know I think, this site it for the d6 classic right? |

West End Games *LOST* the right for the Star Wars Franchise when it had to file for Bankruptsy protection due to it's parent companies debts (Or something like that, the full story is more complex than that, but that's the nutshell that I've gotten at least.).
With the loss of the Franchise, they also lost the right to use the descriptions and SPECIFIC system that Star Wars uses (But kept the Right to the "D6" system.).
So, "D6 Adventures" is the Star Wars D6 system with a new Paintjob. Kinda like taking a Medium Sedan, putting a bigger engine in it (Or supercharging the one in it), dropping it, and calling it a Muscle Car.
Or something to that matter, anyhow.
As for feeling stupid, don't. We've been following this for a number of years... I was once in the same position you were, as were we all... Raiding Monopoly Boxes for dice. |

risk dice work good since they have some different colors... if your looking for adventures i would try to pick up the adventure journals those have some great ideas that don't interfer to much with the stuff that happened in the movies, during and after the movies. lots of good ideas can come from them. _________________ Sabbac anyone? |

My first dice came from lots of old games. My wild die is, at least I think, a vegas die that some kid left in my room. I use three black die one of which came from the Star Wars Monopoly and the other two from Greed. Now, after many years, I use a fat set of about 96 white dice that are exactly the same. 100 dice if you include the three black and one clear red wild die. I had some red dice but those I gave to Ragnar and my cheap mismatched dice were given to a friend who no longer games with us. _________________ "I don't know about angels, but it's fear that gives men wings." -Max Payne
