I'm interested in Imperial Assault. Is there a good buyer's guide for Imperial Assault? How long does it take to learn and play for a group that's never played something similar? What does setup/breakdown time look like, and how long are missions? How many missions are in a campaign? If there's a good effortpost someone's written earlier in the thread, I'd love to read it.

Chomp8645 posted:It also came out later, after many people had already committed to X-wing. X Wing core set is $40 MSRP. Armada core set is $100 MSRP. The individual ships are about 2x as expensive compared to their X-Wing counterparts (from an MSRP perspective). I'm not saying it's unreasonable. It just costs more on a per-ship basis (even if you're likely to field fewer total ships) I'll probably not get into Armada for the same reason (already financially committed to wangs and still having a lot of fun with it), but the longer game time is not appealing to me either. It's hard to find time to play X-Wing, it would be at least twice as hard for me to find time for a longer game.

Those CD wallets aren't archival and acid free or whatever, right? So it's possible that you'd have printing on the tiles transfer onto the vinyl?

MockingQuantum posted:Oh hey neat thread. My wife started working for FFG a little less than a year ago, so I'm officially inundated with SW games now, and I love it. When I was 18 I worked as a canyon/climbing guide and made the princely sum of $250/week. I spent nearly 100% of the money that summer on gear because I got it at a discount. I'm pretty sure I'd be in a similar situation if I was a grownup working for FFG

FFG had some rules implemented for retailers in the last year that forbids them from selling new product at the same time as used or singles. I'm guessing stores that make money on Magic are probably bugged about not being able to carry singles for Destiny if that's the case

HOOLY BOOLY posted:So does Destiny do booster packs like a normal MTG type card game or is it doing expansion type things like Armada and X-Wing do where you know exactly what you're getting when you buy something? Collectible, random boosters. I'm told by someone who likes the game that since the decks are pretty small, you're not cracking open entire cases to find the cards you want. No idea if that's true, maybe he's justifying his purchase

Destiny appears to be blowing up. My local store went big on it, and they've sold through all their pre-orders and said they expect the shelf stock they ordered to go very fast on release day.

ShowTime posted:I've only ever had bad experiences with BrokenEggGames, unfortunately. I'm still waiting for an order to ship that was placed about a month and a half ago. Just keep getting the run around when they are contacted. That's surprising to hear. I've never dealt with them professionally, but I've played X Wing with the dude a bunch of times and he's always been really cool.

I went to an X Wing regionals with 100ish players and as part of the prizing they gave out a copy of Star Wars Rebellion to the last place player, "because you clearly need a new game" It was funny and I was kinda jealous

siggy2021 posted:I had a chat with the designer the other day and asked him about scale and brought up ATAT's. He said that they are trying to do scale as close as possible, it obviously when you get to that size you have to make concessions. If there were no plans to ever do that size vehicles I would assume he would have said that. At 59:30 in the video you can see the 3 unique Vader commander cards, and an explanation of how they're used. A minute later you see Luke's 3 unique commander cards. Alex mentions that if you bring 2 commanders, you'll then have a pool of those 6 unique cards, and you'll secretly choose 3 of them to include.

ShineDog posted:Most of the actually good gunfight in star wars are not enormous pitched megagights though. To me it's more important that the heroes get handled with a kind of detailed lens than the broad brush battles you would see at 10mm Actually, 10mm scale would require a much smaller brush.
