GamerNation, we are back and proud to welcome the awesome of Edge of the Empire Lead Developer, Sam Stewart to the Order 66 Podcast! Not only does Mr. Stewart join us for Messages from the Edge, lending his wisdom to rules questions but takes us into hyperspace for a lengthy discussion of starship rules, design, and mechanics. AND we are graced with an unusual post-show in the middle of the show as Sam Witwer pops in for some much needed insight and hilarious banter. Sprinkle in a heaping helping of Fragments and Transmissions from the Rim, and a super sneaky Skill Monkey segment and we have a super-long episode chock full of greatness.

Welcome to the awesome, GamerNation. Thats all Im going to say. Why awesome? Is it because of the excellent listener questions? Is it because of a solid Skill Monkey, Fragments from the Rim, and Transmissions from the Rim segments? Oh yes. But mostly its because of the power and aptitude of one Zoe Robinson, Senior Art Coordinator at Fantasy Flight Games, and our special guest for tonights episodes. Zoe takes our trembling hands and leads us into an often under-represented aspect of RPG production, sharing with us the hidden secrets of Art Direction and production for an RPG, and taking the time to time to geek out something fierce about her love of Star Wars and Star Wars RPGs. An amazing episode with an amazing guest so listen to it already!
