No idea, that was the first I had heard of it.
Anyone else hear that WoTC lost (“Decided not to renew”) the license for Star Wars RPG and Star Wars Minis?
My take is that a new company will pick it up, and we will get a really fleshed out original system. Instead of a Beta 4e DND, or a mod on their older systems, like both of the WoTC RPGs were.
Probably near the time of the official announcement for the 3D re-re-re-release of the original trilogy, or maybe the KoTR MMO that is coming out. Provided the MMO does good.
