May The 4th Be With You! Get Your Star Wars Fix OnTableTop
May 4, 2024 by crew
Today is Star Wars Day, a perfect chance to celebrate everything Star Wars and get yourself into the mood for some excellent tabletop hobby too.
With that in mind, we've collated together a load of great content we've done on Star Wars into ONE place so you can get as obsessed as us.
Star Wars Roleplaying Adventures!
Catch up on last year's antics and watch through our Star Wars Roleplaying Game sessions that were hosted by our very own grimwolfuk!
Let's Play: Star Wars: Escape From Smuggler's Hold | West End Games RPG
Let's Play: Star Wars: Episode II - The Spice Must Fly | West End Games RPG
There are plenty of ways to have some fun with Star Wars from roleplaying games through to miniatures games. We've had a LOT of fun with Star Wars over the years here at OnTableTop.
Star Wars Let's Plays
We've got a bunch of Let's Plays that we've created for Star Wars: Legion...
We hope you enjoy giving these a watch. Whilst you can obviously watch these videos like this, we are also streaming them on Twitch too throughout the day. However you want to dive into some Star Wars gaming goodness on the tabletop, we've got you covered.
Additionally, we've also got this awesome Downed AT-AT Battle that you can watch here...
You can also check out one of our Cult Of Games Let's Plays where we played through a rematch of the Star Wars: Legion Skirmish rules.
Check Out The Rematch Here
Make sure to share with us if you're playing some epic Star Wars games to celebrate today and maybe upload your antics into a Project.
Star Wars Hobby
On the lobbying side of things, we've also got a bunch of great videos where we've been building gaming tables and painting plenty of models from Star Wars: Legion too.
You can also check out the FULL Star Wars: Legion Downed AT-AT Table Build where John destroyed one of the massive walkers and turned it into a superb gaming table as you'll have seen above.
This gives you a snapshot of the kind of awesome tables we've built for Star Wars in the past. If you've got a Cult Of Games Membership then you can also check out some videos from John...
There is a lot of hobby goodness on the Star Wars front there to keep you going.
Star Wars: Legion Unboxings
If all of that goodness hasn't got you excited then you can also check out a bunch of Unboxings we've done for the Star Wars: Legion range over the past few years. This might get you excited to snap up some Star Wars goodies from Store.OnTableTop.
- Unboxing - Sabine Wren
- Unboxing - Clone Captain Rex
- Unboxing - Droideka
- Unboxing - BARC Speeder
- Unboxing - Count Dooku
- Unboxing - Jyn Erso
- Unboxing - Rebel Pathfinders
Also, if you want to check out some Unboxings of the two Core Sets which are available for Star Wars: Legion, we've got those too.
Make sure to tell us which of those two sets has appealed the most to you. We like the classic clash between Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker but the Clone Wars seems to have more opportunity for epic clashes with lots of combined arms fighting.
X-Wing Endor Aftermath // Check Out The Live Blog
Before we dived into playing Star Wars: Legion we also spent some time playing X-Wing and got to set up a great ground-based scenario for people to play out. Set on the forest moon of Endor after the destruction of the Death Star, floating asteroids were replaced by dense woodlands as the Rebels and Empire fought in atmosphere.
You can follow along with the Live Blog we ran at the time as well in order to get a proper feel for how this battle played out.
Even More for Cult of Games Members

Huge congrats. Welcome to the world young Skywalker.
May the 4th be with you. Or for Americans, April the 5th be with you.
Nope….. It’s still the May the 4th as I read this now! 🙂
Ahh…. warm tingly feelings…. oh, wait, I’m just hungry… sadly the mentioned PDFs are nowhere to be found currently…
May the Schwarz be with you!
Well, I guess we know what’s on in the background while I work today! I’m sure they are a lot of work but honestly, posts like these are great for reminding everyone what’s here (and sending on to my non-OTTer friends to encourage them to come over!). Happy May the 4th everyone!
Watching the Hoth table video brought back some memories… and good grief, how different the studio looks these days!!!
No epic legion?
You rang?
It’s my birthday today. I always get lots of may the fourth be with you from folk
Many happy returns be with you.
Just waiting for Atomic Mass Games to announce Epic Legion for @sundancer
Same here… need to go pester them tomorrow again on their twitch stream XD
In the thumbnail in the first video Gerry just looks like Qui-Gon has just had enough of Jar Jar…
I’m only disappointed that there are no new videos. 🙁
Not going to lie as a child I loved star wars – I think I still have an old suitcase full of figures in my mother’s loft, however all of this leaves me cold.
I wonder if its the total erosion of the franchise that has jaded me?
I am not one of these people bemoaning Disney ruined my childhood – but when I look at what I like of Star Wars as a whole I am left with:
1) A new hope
2) Empire
3) the first 45 mins of Return of the Jedi
4) CGI Peter Cushing in Rogue One.
After that I am out!
Or for Americans: April the 5th be with you.
Oh damn I didn’t read the comments or the dates or anything. And why yes I do make the same date format joke every year ?
*heavy breathing*
Its my birthday today so I’m subjecting my work friends to a game of Legion tonight
Ooh star wars day right enough for folk’s. No oriskany’s star wars game ?.
How is Free handling life back in the big wide world.? Guys.

Recycle all the posts! 8) (3 years now?)
I really need to get back into Legion
I watched the new animated “Tales of the Empire” on Disney+.
Then caught the new trailer for “The Acolyte”

I’m currently sitting in an old historic restored Fox Movie Theater and waited for The Empire Strikes Back to start up on the Big Screen.
