  • The World of Indiana Jones roleplaying game was intended as a flagship for WEG's "MasterBook" system; all MasterBook titles used the same game mechanics. The system flopped, however, and in 1996 the company released Indiana Jones Adventures, describing how to play the game using the alternate "D6 System" rules. In 1998, financial troubles caught up with the company, and it was forced to declare bankruptcy. As a result, WEG lost the licenses to a number of properties, including Indiana Jones.

  • thumb West End Games was een Amerikaanse firma uit Honesdale (Pennsylvania) die het Star Wars RPG 6D (6D wil zeggen, met een dobbelsteen met zes zijden) introduceerde in 1987 tot 1998. Ze waren ook het eerste bedrijf dat Sourceboeken publiceerde waarin de achtergrond van het Star Wars universum (zoals personages, aliens, dieren, toestellen, schepen, planeten, enz...) werd verklaard. West End Games heeft ontzettend veel namen gegeven aan items uit het universum die we de dag van vandaag - en op Yodapedia - nog steeds gebruiken. Zie ook: * Lijst van West End Games boeken
  • While all the supplements West End Games produced are out of print, some of the information included in their sourcebooks and adventures was used as background material for the Expanded Universe novels and comics, and some of the writers for West End Games supplements went on to write for the Star Wars Roleplaying Game produced by Wizards of the Coast. Much as with Marvel Comics' original Star Wars series, relatively obscure characters and settings from WEG supplements were frequently referenced in later Expanded Universe material by such authors as Abel G. Peña and Pablo Hidalgo (himself a former West End Games freelancer).

WEG's most recent product line primarily focused on the D6 System for RPGs, a game engine that utilized standard six-sided dice (or d6s) for its game mechanics.
