Star Wars: The High Republic (Doxacon 2020 Game)

Game Overview

You and your companions play heroes during the time of The High Republic Era, 232 years before Star Wars Episode IV. The Galactic Republic is at its height, but you must deal with dark forces who threaten the peace.

This game will tie into the new series of Star Wars: The High Republic books debuting in January, 2021. Check back before Doxacon in November for additional details on the game.

This game will use the beloved 1987 “Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game” rules plus some house rules to bring it up to modern sensibilities. Pre-generated characters and a digital copy of the key rules will be provided prior to the game. No experience needed; we will teach you everything you need to play the game!
