In a previous thread (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=179680) I manifeted the intention to buy a SW RPG handbook: I was suggested to buy WEG Edition, and after an extenuating research, I found a nearly perfect copy of the Revised and Expanded Edition (http://www.amazon.com/Star-Roleplaying-Second-Revised-Expanded/dp/087431268X/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1296472607&sr=8-2) at a ridiculously low price.
Having won an auction, the incredibly kind, polite and correct seller surprised me generously throwing in another handbook FOR FREE, and said handbook turned out to be the core rulebook for SW RPG 1st Edition (http://www.amazon.com/Core-Rulebook-Star-Wars-Roleplaying/dp/0786917938/ref=tmm_hrd_title_0?ie=UTF8&qid=1296472565&sr=8-1), published by WotC in 2000.
In my previous thread I received bad impressions on the latter manual: by quickly browsing it (really quickly, just a glance) I noticed that it seems to be based on the same rules of D&D 3.5 Edition, as there are skills as Survival or Sleight of Hand, apart from some other tweaks such as WP/VP instead of Hit Points.
Now, in this particular moment of my life I'm very busy, and too easily distracted to detect mechanical flaws in WotC handbook: has anybody of you some experience with this manual who could tell me why it has such an awful reputation and what are its bugs?
