Scum and Villainy: STAR WARS DAY EXTRAVAGANZA

STAR WARS DAY EXTRAVAGANZA

For many years fans of Star Wars have held May 4th as a day to celebrate the franchise. To celebrate the juggernaut of Nerd Culture we will be playing three sessions of Scum and Villainy set in the Star Wars Universe on this day.

We will be playing a total of 3 three hour sessions of Scum and Villainy on the 4th May using Roll20 and Google Hangouts. There will be minimal setup for this session and we will be using Pre-generated characters. These sessions will be recorded for Youtube.

The stories told in these sessions are linked but the ability to play in all sessions is not required. These sessions are meant for everybody to experience and celebrate Star Wars. I would ask that people sign up for a single session initially. If there are any spaces left as of the 17th if April, i will then open these for people to sign up for multiple sessions.

May the Force be with you.

Still pursued by the fleets of The EMPIRE after their defeat at HOTH, the REBEL FLEET has scattered to find solace in any port they may call friend.

What’s BST? I’m not familiar with that time zone, being in the United States.

British Summer Time. our clocks changed last week

Ah. It’s easier to convert from GMT internationally, I think. Especially since many countries use different dates for their “summer time”.

Hot tip: just clicking on the link to the calendar will show you the time of the event in your local time zone, converting it for you.

Hotter tip:

(We Mods would appreciate it if people creating #gauntlet-hangouts posts would use the Insert Date functionality - it saves people from having to guess about timezones or click through the link.)
