"The Long Arm of the Hutt," a bonus roleplaying encounter spanning 46 pages, originates from Fantasy Flight Games. It debuted as a downloadable add-on for the Star Wars: Edge of the Empire Beginner Game, which is a component of the Edge of the Empire game system within Fantasy Flight's broader Star Wars RPG series. Fantasy Flight provides it as a complimentary PDF eBook accessible on their website since December 14, 2012. Furthermore, two accompanying eight-page character folios are also provided. This adventure picks up where Escape from Mos Shuuta left off.
The introductory adventure featured in the Star Wars: Edge of the Empire Beginner Game is called "Escape from Mos Shuuta." Assuming the player characters (Hero Players) fare well, they will, by the adventure's conclusion - Spoiler alert! - successfully flee the crime-infested Tatooine spaceport of Mos Shuuta, setting the stage for a vast, galaxy-spanning escapade!
However, even with a successful escape in that initial adventure, the Hero Players aren't necessarily free from their past entanglements. After all, even across the expansive Star Wars galaxy, one's reputation (and associated troubles) tend to follow. Can the players truly evade the clutches of a powerful and merciless crime boss once and for all?
...FFG is thrilled to announce the launch of "The Long Arm of the Hutt" (low res pdf, 2.4 MB), a completely free PDF adventure designed to serve as a direct sequel to "Escape from Mos Shuuta"! Now accessible on our support page, "The Long Arm of the Hutt" propels the narrative forward directly following the events of "Escape from Mos Shuuta." Throughout this extensive 46-page adventure, the Hero Players will journey from the Ryll mines on Ryloth to the distinguished courts of Geonosis, all in an attempt to outrun the wrath of a formidable Hutt crime lord. Boasting an engaging combination of action and intrigue, "The Long Arm of the Hutt" serves as an excellent follow-up for groups gaining momentum in the Star Wars: Edge of the Empire: Beginner Game. This multi-session adventure is also well-suited for seasoned roleplayers, offering 20 or more hours of supplemental gameplay!
Fantasy Flight Games released two character sheets, one for "Mathus the Technician" and another for "Sasha the Explorer," as complimentary downloadable PDF files on December 14, 2012. These are intended for use with The Long Arm of the Hutt. These character sheets continue the narrative established in Escape from Mos Shuuta.
