    Who Should Make The Next Star Wars TTRPG, And What Should It Look Like?

    1 Shot Campaigns, and throw away characters.

    Go to a few Cons so one off games are the thing there. Weekly home games are always more than a one shot, but sometimes no longer than say doing a starter set, but not continue after that
