About the adventure
Star Wars: Galaxy at War System: Fantasy Flight Games — Age of Rebellion Style: Multi-Table Persistent Campaign | Roleplay + Tactical Missions | Rebels vs. Empire Overview War consumes the galaxy. From the burning skies of the Core Worlds to the shadowed lanes of the Outer Rim, the conflict between the Rebellion and the Empire rages on. You will take your place within that war — as a pilot, spy, trooper, or officer — in a living campaign that spans multiple tables, each representing a strike team, starfighter wing, or Imperial unit fighting for their cause. This is not a single-table story, but a full-scale campaign where the actions of one squad shape the next. Missions run simultaneously across different groups, and the results ripple through a shared galaxy. The Rebels fight for freedom. The Empire fights for order. Only one vision will survive the chaos. Campaign Format Multiple Teams: Each table consists of 5 players, either Rebel or Imperial. Shared World: Missions, intel, and outcomes are tracked across all tables — what one team achieves will impact everyone. Faction Secrets: Each faction has private channels for planning, strategy, and roleplay — as well as shared neutral zones for cross-faction encounters. Espionage and Betrayal: Hidden agents and moles operate on both sides, leaking intel or sabotaging missions from within. Downtime Roleplay: Between tabletop sessions, players can continue in-character roleplay online, trading messages, plotting, or forming alliances. Gameplay Each squad will meet for 4-hour sessions focused on cinematic, tactical missions using the Age of Rebellion ruleset. Between sessions, the wider campaign unfolds asynchronously — reports, consequences, and political shifts update the state of the galaxy. Missions vary from covert infiltrations and space battles to moral dilemmas and diplomatic sabotage. Both sides will gain and lose territory, resources, and reputation as the war escalates. Tone and Themes Military science fiction with a cinematic edge War stories from both sides of the conflict Loyalty, morality, and the cost of victory Covert operations, sabotage, and intelligence warfare A living world where player choices shape galactic history Ideal Players Those who enjoy tactical teamwork and rich character roleplay. Players interested in long-term campaigns with persistent consequences. Fans of espionage, rebellion, and moral complexity within the Star Wars universe.

About me
I am a 45-year-old gay male. I work as a Licensed Veterinary Technician for poison control and went to school for not only that but animation / vfx. I was a VFX focus so I can't draw but I can make some cool trailers! I am a cast member on a Twitch tabletop streamed game. I have been playing/running a variety of TTRPGs since I was very young. Red Box D&D of the '80s and into the heyday of AD&D in the '90s. I have played every edition released since then and also own numerous books from each era. Dungeons and Dragons however is not the limit of my system knowledge. I own and have tried countless other systems. My preferences have started to lean toward more narrative-based systems. Many of my games will focus on PBtA systems and FATE. I, however, have numerous other systems I would love to bring to the table, such as Power Rangers, Transformers, GI Joe ( Essence20 system), Chronicles of Darkness, Vampire the Requiem, Werewolf the Forsaken...etc( Storyteller System *a personal favorite*) Even the slightly crunchier Fate powered Dresden Files, Mouse Guard, Ironclaw/Jadeclaw, Wanderhome, My Little Pony (If you are feeling animals) Classic Marvel RPG (TSR 4-Color, FASERIP) and many more. If I'm not familiar with it I'm always willing to add it to my collection and learn it! I'm a kind and outgoing person. My tables will always be LGBTQ+ friendly. I have a passion for collaborative storytelling. I will offer a unique gaming experience full of visual references and vibes. This will include custom videos, music, and references. It will also include frequent text-based downtime posts between sessions. There will be 1 scheduled 4-hour sessions/week. The number of sessions depends on the price of the table spot and the specific game being run.

Creating your character
We will have numerous session zeroes to ensure that everyone has a clear grasp and foothold in the world. This story will not center around the big names we all know but around our characters and their personal struggles in a galaxy torn apart by war. Your table will be a part of the bigger picture either for the alliance, for the rebellion, or for something in between.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Discord and Roll20 will be the only things you should need. Otherwise I look forward to meeting you!
