The '''RPGA''', alternatively known as the '''Role Playing Game Association''' and the '''RPGA Network''', is a subsidiary of [[Wizards of the Coast]] that organized ''Star Wars'' tournament adventure scenarios under both the [[West End Games]] d6 and the later Wizards of the Coast d20 RPG systems. Founded in November 1980 by [[Wikipedia:Frank Mentzer|Frank Mentzer]] of [[Wikipedia:TSR (company)|TSR]], Wizards of the Coast acquired the RPGA when they purchased TSR in 1997.

Prior to running the [[Living Force (roleplaying campaign)|''Living Force campaign'']], the RPGA&mdash;operating as TSR, Inc.&mdash;ran the ''[[Star Wars: Warriors of the Republic]]'' campaign, designed for the ''[[Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game, Second Edition, Revised and Expanded]]'' rules.<ref name="SWWotR">[https://web.archive.org/web/19981205213718/http://www.tsr.com/rpga/LivingCampaigns/starwars.html TSR's ''Star Wars: Warriors of the Republic'' campaign]</ref>

==Living Force==
{{Main|Living Force (roleplaying campaign)}}

==Adventure scenarios==
Known primarily for the [[Living Force (roleplaying campaign)#Media|adventure scenarios]] released as part of the [[Living Force (roleplaying campaign)|Living Force campaign]], the RPGA has released a number of scenarios tied to the ''[[Star Wars: Warriors of the Republic]]'' campaign as well as numerous standalone scenarios. While later scenarios released to accompany the Wizards of the Coast d20 system may be considered [[canon]], earlier scenarios may possibly be ambiguously canon or non-canon.

Initially, members of the RPGA were required to pay a subscription to access the scenarios, but the fee was later waived. The scenarios, however, remained only available to members and gamemasters, primarily distributed at conventions only.
