    Step into a galaxy under occupation where heroism is punished and survival is a way of life.

    A decade after Order 66, the Empire has had time to settle in. Not just with armies, but with laws, checkpoints, informants, and fear. Systems are occupied “for their safety.” Industry is nationalized. Dissidents vanish. Whole worlds are taxed into oblivion, and those in power prosper.

    Shipping lanes are plagued by patrols.
    Bureaucrats seize cargo with a signature.
    People can disappear into the system.
    And what power you believed you had over your own life is gone…
    unless you learn how to move quietly.

    This is an 18+ story-first roleplaying game. Write the stories you want—action, intrigue, romance, slice-of-life, and long arcs—built on consent, collaboration, and respect.

  • Conversations and questions about current, upcoming, and advertised games and the hobby as a whole.

    I just really don’t like random social fluff.

    I know this is off topic but this is not the first time I’ve seen someone mention that they only do a specific kind of RP, and I’m curious about what makes something random social fluff. What’s your definition? Every scene must have a plot related throughline? And has it been effective?

    @Gashlycrumb Also, chances are most of the people you (general not specific) have a problem with have a similar opinion of you so 1) Why would they care? 2) Why would they be surprised? People are allowed to avoid games because of Staff (whether your own issue or in support of someone else) so it seems hypocritical to not allow Staff the same option especially when they’re the one putting in the effort to run the game.

    @tsar I am replying here to get your attention for no reason related to past posts in this thread.

    I just want to say I both appreciate and 😄 over the 🐌 facts I see when I peek at Crimson Compass’s site.

    @Gashlycrumb said in MU Peeves Thread:

    I do not believe that every time, (or almost every time, or even a majority of the time) a player finds staff chronically unresponsive it’s because the staffer is justifiably annoyed with the player, or the player has a bad reputation.

    I think our hobby is getting small enough that it’s getting more and more common.

    Yeah, I can’t say I was psyched ot see it was 5E but it’s not a deal breaker either. It’s weird because we live in a great time for IP-based RPGs(Transformers, GI Joe, Power Rangers, and now Thundercats), but I’m not a huge fan of any of the systems behind them. The exception being Star Trek. I do like the 2D20 system.
