For this first series we are looking at the Sample Adventure included in the Fantasy Flight Games Star Wars: Force And Destiny boxed set.

The goal for these episodes are two three fold.

1 – as always our first priority is to have fun playing a game with friends.

2 – To be used as a template for any new(er) GMs who are wanting to start running games, will be using these sample adventures themselves and want to experience how a veteran GM ran the same adventure.

3 – for us to review the adventure for how well it does what it was designed to do; namely introduce the game’s concepts and themes to a new audience.

For this series we have our GM as Chris Burlew (@Burlew_Chris). Chris the GM for the Redemption Podcast, the longest running Star Wars Actual Play in the known Galaxy.
