    I love how consistent Star Wars is with its scathing depiction of corporations. Just like in real life, the biggest criminals operate legally and "legitimately"

    Nar Shadda is such a great setting for cyberpunk or noir detective-styled adventures.

      Fully agree Buddy. The TTRPG "Traveller" game-play could certainly make use of Settings like this one (and a few others) or rather, use the info garnered from these places to spice up a GM's world within the Traveller Galaxy settings.

    I feel like Coruscant, Taris, and Nar Shadda almost make a trifecta.
    You could almost compare them to the Greek fates, the three sisters, the Spinner, the Allotter, and Death.

      Hilariously enough. The sheer number of ecumenopolises in the galaxy has created a similar stereotype. (though it’s more comparable to that of the Hecate sisters.) Best example is axilla which is summarized by Han Solo.“Turn Coruscant inside-out and make it a jail where the inmates are in control” (Winter Celchu thought the same thing)

    Hi Folks. As I've mentioned previous, LOVE these "Smuggler Tales" and I think your presentation of them is awesome.
    I don't know if you got inspiration for them by viewing the "Essential Atlas" entry on page 14 titled "A Spacer's Life" (as it's similarly themed) but regardless, that entry is a real hoot to read as it includes identifying the consequences of "running afoul of The B.O.S.S.".
    I'd love if you elected to use that entry as a basis for developing a new "Smuggler's Tale", as it has some funny but excellent info on the precarious situation newbie "Runners" can find themselves in, should they break BOSS rules and Regs. Something I suspect unaware viewers may find entertaining and informative.
    Great stuff regardless my friends. Thanks very much for all your efforts!

    So are you guys going to be doing videos for the new season of The Bad Batch on Wednesday or Thursday, and if it is going to be Wednesday then will we still get a video on Thursday or Friday, I only ask because the last two weeks you've done long-form videos on Thursday and skipped Friday so I'm just wondering if that was al preparation for a change in the schedule until the final season of the Bad Batch finishes up?
