The beast of all campaigns. I had 8 players, each player playing 3 to 4 characters. This took a little over 2 years to complete. And I of course could not be satisfied with what they published. I added a ton of stuff: a Hutt crime boss (linked to a Hutt from the previous campaign), Noble Houses, and a whole host of subtle changes other elements.
