Description

This is what happens when you got a nerd with waaaaay too much time on his hands, and a lot of years of RPG's. Ive been playing a Star Wars rpg with my friends since the early 90's! Anyhow Im sure there are some nitpicks you could do with this, but overall I think its better and more useful than any of the other maps I could find online. About 75% is from Star Wars cannon and wookieepedia. The rest is just stuff I made up and from the game my friends and I play. Any other gamers out there are free to use it and modify it.
Also, you might wanna check back a few times. I still might add more stuff and modify it slightly.
enjoy!

Well Im rapidly closing in on 1500 downloads. After all that and not a single email from anybody out there. But I did get a few nice comments here, thanks! Anyhow Im thinking I should really make it as good as can be. I would like to add on about 3x as many planets and make it more like a galaxy. Any suggestions for details I could add? Extra info on the outside? Graphics? Help me out people!

So the thing I like about this is the shape of the regions. A lot of standard Star Wars maps completely ignore the spiral shape of the galaxy, where in yours, on the other hand, absolutely acknowledges that shape and follows the shape of the spiral arms, which feels more 'rooted' in the galaxy rather than just using it as a visual backdrop on a standard grid map.


I'm adapting this for my own game. Nice work!
