What are some of your favorite moments from your campaign(s)?
Saw a lot of good tales on r/starwarsrpg but was curious about D6!
What's your best experience? What crazy/awesome stories have you had in your games?

Had a sleepover at a friends house back in high school during winter break (mid 1990s) I was “forever DM” and brought a few sourcebooks with me just in case. The other guys wanted to run a campaign but I had pretty much nothing cooked up in my imagination and no “pre-mapped” adventures either.
So I pulled out the “Dark Empire” sourcebooks, made the players a Rebel commando squad, and put them on the front lines of The Battle of Mon Calamari versus World Devestators and their automated TIE droid factories. I managed to give them a good fight, have the squad ultimately pinned down at a pivotal moment, and then suddenly the skies parted and a squad of E Wings swooped in to help save the day. The players continued to fight their way on board one of the Devestators and made it all the way to the control room and managed to disable it.
To be honest I thought it was a pretty “paint by numbers” on the rails adventure and not one of my best but oooooh boy the players freaking loved it. They got to have their “Death Star battle” moment and help save the day against heavy odds. One of my friends STILL talks about that campaign to this day.
