>>>jason brown brings us news of the star wars rpg game from wizards of the coast. it looks like star wars as a supported rpg has now finished. wizards of the coast have officially announced the ending of their massive star wars campaign setting living force. this was the last and only officially supported rpg product and though this doesn't really come as a surprise, as theirs been no new sourcebooks for nearly a year and all the revenge of the sith rpg stats and info was only posted on the official rpg site, it does end up been a tad disappointing.  wizards of the coast looks like their continued interest in star wars will just be with the collectable figures range and with no new rpg stuff been released in the future, which is a massive waste of the licence.
