I'm excited about Imperial Assault as a source of minis for the RPG. :)

The guy who runs our session (which btw is via hangouts) is super excited for this same reason. Also because it sounds fun I suppose.

If that is for real I am totally screwed. I don't even know if any of my friends are going to play with me and I'll still be buying a bunch.

It is up at CSI!
I am resisting (somehow) until at least the new year. I wouldn't have any time to play and I want to see some reviews first.

So many ImpAss character packs on sale at MM right now. I really want to buy all the ones I'm missing, but I've also only played Skirmish once haha.

Ordered ImpAss from my flgs, might want to grab some character packs to get people's favourites, but I want to make sure that my board games friends like the game before investing heavily.

Two questions:

1) How hard is it to integrate new packs mid campaign?

2) How good is skirmish mode in the case it's just my lil bro and me?

1) Technically you're not supposed to mix them in mid-campaign. Part of the setup is creating the side mission and agenda decks. That said, I imagine you can add things in mid campaign without much trouble at all though haha. If you're adding deployment groups (think like the Hired Guns or something else non-unique) you may want to make sure its okay with your players.

2) I am currently in love with Skirmish and assuming your brother isn't like 8 or something that should be fine. You may have a bit of overlap with the command cards, but as long as you tend to play different factions it shouldn't be too bad.

I've won a mission that way as a Rebel, where you double move + strain 2 and get to the end with 1 or 0 movement points in excess. In general it kind of a mess up on your part especially if you had the people to provide a wall of bodies the round before. It can be tough to see that coming though.
