But West Ends’ streak of winners (Paranoia, Ghostbusters, Star Wars, Torg) couldn’t survive disappointments like Shatterzone and Masterbook, and the company went bankrupt by the end of the 90s, leaving Star Wars up for grabs.
This is isn't right. WEG was completely capable of surviving disappointing products because of their successful titles. Star Wars was going strong right up until the end. What they couldn't survive was the shoe company that owned WEG went bankrupt and getting smothered in the rubble.
