Star Wars Wednesday - 2011 End of the Year Grab Bag

With my blog at starwars.com, I often ended the year with a grab bag post of odds and ends. Here is this year's version....

Star Wars Wednesday - Twitter, Star Wars & More

This blog is dangerously close to becoming Star Wars Thursday, at my current posting schedule. I'll have to work on that....

This week I wanted to call attention to a few things, and then realized they had something in common.

Star Wars Wednesday - Monsters & Halloween

I was going to head back into useful game advice this week, with a bit on adapting D&D 4e or Gamma World monsters and opponents for Star Wars use. With experience in designing the beast quick creation system for Saga in Unknown Regions, and D&D monster design from Monster Vault: Threats to the Nentir Vale, I'd hoped to find a quick and dirty way for GMs to do it on the fly.

Star Wars Wednesday - The New Starwars.com 

Another terribly busy week, so I'll look elsewhere again for some Star Wars inspiration. No, not the Blu-Rays. At this point, I'll wait until I see them to comment, if then. No, this time, starwars.com made a timely update for my weekly Star Wars musings.

Starwars.com - Battle of Turak IV map

I should have realized this sooner, but with the elimination of the Hyperspace fan club, now anyone can read most if not all of the old Hyperspace content. That means the tactical maps I did for the Battle of Turak IV article are now open for all to see. And, for those who don't recall, Turak IV originally appeared in WEG's Imperial Sourcebook. Some of the logos/graphics in the article later appeared in WEG's mini's book, Imperial Entanglements.

Star Wars Wednesday - May the 4th Be With You

May the 4th be with you!

Sorry for the late post today. When I realized yesterday that there would be a lot of Star Wars related activity today, the mostly unofficial Star Wars day, I decided to hold off at least until after the countdown clock on starwars.com expired, in case it was important. By then, of course, I was at work and ended up working late, so I'm just now getting to this.

As my friends and family know well, I like puns. You'd think I would be a fan of a something like the title of this day. Sorry, but this one just never clicked with me. Apparently the fun continues tomorrow with the Revenge of the 5th. I do find the combination of jokes funnier than either individually, for whatever reason.

Anyway, there was a lot of Star Wars around the web, at least. Here's a quick roundup of some of the better stuff, for those who missed it:

Star Wars Wednesday - Mobilized

This week, I've been totally distracted by several things. I've recently become significantly busier, in a good way, but it has also left me going "Tomorrow is Wednesday? Already?" the past couple of weeks. I'll get things sorted and get some more gaming stuff up in the future, and follow up on the outpost from a few weeks back.

One distraction this week is my new android phone, my first foray in to the smartphone arena. No, it's not "droid" branded model, though that would have been appropriate and fun, especially the special edition R2 model.

The Unknown Regions on Starwars.com

Today, Starwars.com posted an article/ interview on The Unknown Regions with myself, Daniel Wallace and Rodney Thompson. At the moment, it also has a link on the main starwars.com page, though that page cycles often.

Look, Sir: The Scavengers' Guide to Droids

Now I know I've been busy, having overlooked posting this here. A couple of weeks ago, I was quoted on the starwars.com site in an article on the Scavenger's Guide to Droids. You can find it here.
