Star Battle (logic puzzle)

The standard form of this puzzle works as follows: A square lattice is divided into irregular polyomino regions. Enter some stars so that each row, each column, and each region contains exactly two stars, and no two stars are adjacent, even diagonally. Large variants of this puzzle may use 3 stars per row/column/region. Star Wars is a variant of this puzzle in which there are lines or shaded regions that count as extra regions that also must contain two stars each.
