Star Wars Roleplaying Game (informally dubbed Star Wars d20) was the second Tabletop RPG set in the Star Wars universe, published by Wizards of the Coast in 2000, after West End Games (creators of Star Wars d6) lost the license. The game was based on the Wizards' trademark d20 System, got "revised" between Episodes II and III, and received a huge revamp in 2007 (read: post-Revenge of the Sith) with the Saga Edition. In 2010, WotC gave up their license and discontinued all of their Star Wars brand lines, including Star Wars d20.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })The video games Knights of the Old Republic (2003) and Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords (2005) were strongly influenced by this system. The influence later came full circle with the release of Knights of the Old Republic Campaign Guide in 2008—a supplement for the Saga Edition detailing the time period of the games and the tie-in comic.

Armor Is Useless

comment
Armor Is Useless: Armor really was useless, unless you were already almost dead. It provided damage reduction only when you were out of vitality points or against a critical hit, when damage went to wound points. So for most of a battle, all most armor did was provide a situation bonus to one ability and an armor check penalty to certain skills. ...yay? It also denied you your class-based AC and limited your max Dex Bonus. This could be designed to reflect the stormtrooper armor's uselessness. In the Saga Edition, characters gain bonuses to their Reflex Defense (the defense that keeps blaster bolts hitting you) from armor or a level-based bonus, and they don't stack. At higher levels, it's better to go into a fight naked, rather than wearing the heaviest protection you can find. However, it isn't played completely straight as the bonuses to Fortitude Defense from armor do stack and with the right talents, you can get them to stack with the Reflex Defense as well.
