Galaxy of Intrigue is yet another solid supplement for the Star Wars Sage RPG, introducing the mechanic of skill challenges like in D&D 4e, using a series of skill rolls and roleplay to perform a task that wouldn't normally take just a single roll. In my opinion it's a great mechanic that melds dice rolling with the encouragement to roleplay your character and stress their abilities.
The usual assortment or additional species, equipment, droids, and ships are backed by a series of ready-to-run encounters, plot hooks, and campaign jump points.
Get it while you can, Wizards of the Coast has dropped the Lucasfilm license and the entire line will be out of print and off shelves before long. Ships of the Galaxy and Knights of the Old Republic are fetching upwards of $70 on Ebay!

Really good information on new feats, skill uses, new weapons and starships. It also has generic adventure hooks if you are running on the fly.

I thought this book was well done, and makes a good addition to the saga edition collection.

Great addition to the RPG. Even if you've been doing this in your campaigns anyway, adding the intrigue and whatnot, pick this up. There's new nuggets to add in, by way of talents, planets, etc. Can't wait to incorporate some of this new info into the next campaign.

After some of the fantastic volumes that have been released for the Star Wars RPG, I am stunned to have seen this one. There is virtually nothing of value in this entire book. Its filled mostly with stupid little mini-encounters that anyone with half a brain could do themselves. I can't believe they released this. I am stunned. Do NOT purchase this volume or you WILL regret it.
