On Sunday, Sept. 1, 2002, Star Wars: Reach of the Empire will open its doors for roleplaying. The RP kickoff will start at 3 p.m. EST in the Mos Eisley cantina on Tatooine.

The game, a project developed by OtherSpace creator Wes Platt (a.k.a. Brody), follows a storyline that begins a few years before the events of Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. As the storyline evolves, it will diverge from the known legends of Star Wars, allowing player characters rather than the popular heroes of the epic mythos to make names for themselves in the galaxy long ago and far, far away.
