Star Wars: After Burn - after order 66 before A New Hope

About the adventure

You are a part of roughnecks surviving on the outer rim evading the Empire and scratching out a living. You are bounty hunters, nomads, space cowboys, or even bucket heads. The outer rim is a tough place, but you and your crew manage to survive somehow. After order 66 most Jedi have been hunted down and the galaxy has come under the control of the empire. Only the brave or stupid choose to live in the outer rim. Which you are remains to be seen. There are rumors of a group of rebels forming, but who would be stupid enough to fight the empire? Inspired by the first Star wars(A New Hope), Mandalorian, Firefly and Rogue One this game is about the other guys and how they fit in in the galaxy far far away.
