I am so looking forward to Star Wars Saga's next book called
Scum & Villainy. It will be a definite aid since my group has allied themselves with a few unseelie types. The game is going well and I have also been sculpting my own gargantuan Krayt Dragon using the gargantuan blue dragon from the D&D minis line. I saw a couple guys do the mod so I figured I would take a crack at it. I am looking forward to painting it up this week so I will get some pics up once it is completed.
But this is was S&V has instore and the cover art is gorgeous!

Chapter 6: Mini-adventures; pages 159-191 [15.6% of content]"The mini adventures are two pages each. They encompass a range of adventures that have a "scoundrel" feel to them, such as a snatch and grab, breaking and entering to steal something etc.
They consist of a bit of background, an adventure overview (a paragraph or two each), and the crunch with an associated map. They rest is in the GMs hands to make the fluff.
Chapter 7: The Fell Star; pages 193-221 [13.7% of content]An adventure which involves Point Nadir. This adventure is written much like the DoD adventure.
It should be noted that all adventures are written with a 'scoundrely' feel to them. This could be problematic for players with higher beliefs of morale.
