My FLGS's manager has burned a lot of distribution bridges due to incompetence so even if there wasn't a shortage, he wouldn't have gotten many in. Luckily one of the other X-wing guys had a second starter that he sold to me for what he paid, $15. Then I went to the other major CCG seller in town; hey had three starters and a box left so I bought a second Rey starter. $12.50 a starter, $2.30 a booster. I'm surprised there aren't any collection trackers for Android yet.

Are there any cards or abilities that get rid of support cards on the field? EDIT: As soon as I post, I remembered AT-ST

Have any sites gone through the sets and reviewed individual cards? I'm not even sure where to begin.

Is there a general turn by turn strategy? I've played and understand Magic but never got into advanced things. What should I be looking out for, when shouldn't I do this or that action?

Bottom Liner posted:Starting deck building guide: Maybe it's just because I haven't gotten many cards; 15-20 dice sounds like a lot! I haven't dived into the rules deeply yet, I know you can only have a color card in your deck if you have that color hero. Can you only attach them to those color heroes or anyone that could take them, barring any other restrictions on the upgrade?

I can't publish decks for 24 hours after making an account and I can't edit a deck once I've saved it, I just get a "Page can't be reached" error. Finally got to run this tonight. First game I was way too timid on resources and damage. Fortunately I made up for it by running Mind Probe special almost every turn after I had it. Frankly, I didn't deserve that win. Following with a second game, I went hard on damage and a lucky 3 resource roll let me put out some upgrades and have enough left over. Forced him on tilt by making plays he had to respond to, then rolled 1 melee on Jango with two +2 melee from his double lightsabers to wipe out his last character. Felt good; free action economy from Jango is a good time. Fit three upgrades on him and activate for free, throw that damage out. Fat chance that I know what I'm talking about though.

If you rolled the dice, Drudge Work would be in every single list. I don't understand how you could come to that conclusion.

I grasped the game in one try with the starter deck (with an experienced player showing me) and a week later played two games with someone not much less new than I am and neither of us had a problem. I kept getting extremely lost trying to learn Dicemasters, the main culprit likely being the 10-12 cards that start in the field, potentially affecting the game before their dice are even rolled.

I beat an Amidala mill deck the other night with my "Mash two starters together" deck. His was designed to not do any damage. It came down to two cards in hand and two in the deck before I crapped out six damage onto Amidala. One of the keys of facing a mill deck is claiming the battlefield before they do

Dr. Clockwork posted:I've found that playing against those mill builds, you need to have a solid opening hand. If you can drop some upgrades and support early on to put out some damage, they can mill you out all day. Just out-roll them! I had an Enrage in my opening hand. Mulliganed all four cards, pulled two of the same cards and two other useless openers. Was hoping for a second turn Lightsaber.

I would be surprised if actual characters don't get new cards with different powers. They all have titles, or nicknames, or subtitles or whatever under their names.

Chazani posted:Lord of the Rings LCG has 3 versions of Aragorn without any use of sub-titles. Different art and different special abilities. The rules prevent running more than one at the time naturally. How do you differentiate them in a list? Dicemasters uses acronyms for heroes, and Warmachine uses something similar.

It's usually going to depend on your deck setup. If I had a second Jango die and any yellow cards at all, I'd go hard in on him. Free actions are wonderful; I had two lightsabers on him after Kylo died. My opponent activates a character because it's the start of the round and he has nothing else to do. I roll Jango's dice for one melee and two +2 melee from the sabers. Amidala eats five damage and dies before she can do anything.

Local places either got no cards, or sold out within 2 hours. I might as well just give up this stupid game. Hard to keep interest when you can't even get the game.

The first game he had eVader and Tusken. Vader is ridiculous, rolled five damage right away, and completely neutered anything I tried to do after. Second was Amidala/Rey/Ackbar. I killed Amidala and Ackbar but he hit me with Patience twice while having seven dice out. Between discarding everything and removing my resources, I again couldn't get anything out and was lucky to kill just those two.

HidaO-Win posted:Tusken Vader is one of the three big aggro decks that have crystallised out of the early meta, so with a smaller card pool you are vulnerable to getting god rolled. Basically you want some dice control to stop yourself getting wrecked early on,but if you dont got the cards, you don't got the cards. I've got a single Jango die right now to go with Kylo and a Trooper. I do enjoy me some aggro, and free actions like from Jango are great.

Is there any reason you can't have, say, two of Luke's Lightsabers on the field? Is that what the diamond by the title mean? With Ackbar I imagine you would want to try and get three lightsabers onto Luke. That's probably too slow though, maybe. Tempo and whatnot was never my strong suit.

It's definitely three.

So could you resolve the +3 ranged side of the IQA-11 Blaster Rifle with Poe's ability as long as someone has a ranged damage side showing? EDIT: I just noticed in the rulebook from the FFG page: • Characters with the same title but a different subtitle are still considered to be the same character for determining uniqueness. Example: A player cannot use Darth Vader, Sith Lord and Darth Vader, Dark Apprentice on the same team. In case anyone wasn't convinced that they would reprint characters with new abilities. I doubt anyone here thought that. Admiral Joeslop fucked around with this message at 01:47 on Jan 6, 2017 |

I still haven't been able to get more than my two booster packs locally and online stores sell out just as fast if not faster. If they don't keep the first set available then I have no interest in playing at all.

I tried to get in this game at launch and gave up around February due to the supply issues. Someone at X-wing League said those issues are almost fixed. I'm OK with not owning ask the cards and just buying what I need for a deck. I do own two of both starters, and a couple boosters that didn't give me much. That said, is there a viable Luke/Leia list? Nothing groundbreaking or tournament winning, just something that can hang with a bit of luck. Failing that, what are good decks for Luke and Leia separately?

Do any of the various Destiny apps download the card image or have the text on hand? The one I picked pulls card info from a webpage and won't work when I don't have internet access.
