 quote:Captain Phasma and Count Dooku battle Han Solo and Luke Skywalker in the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. Jango Fett and Jabba the Hutt attack Rey and Finn as they pass through the frozen wastes of Starkiller Base. Play out your own epic, saga-spanning, “what if” battles in Star Wars™: Destiny, a collectible dice and card game for two players! Q: What the gently caress is this poo poo?! A: Star Wars: Destiny is FFG's attempt to collect all the money of Magic: The Gathering, Star Wars, and Dicemasters at the same time. Cards are purchased through starter packs and random boosters, where each booster contains 5 cards and 1 die to match a card in the pack. Your characters will do battle with enemy characters in an attempt to defeat all of them or run out the opposing player's deck. Q: How much is it? A: $15 for a starter and $3 for a booster, give or take. Q: What does it look like? A:  Pictured: Decks, characters, upgrades, support cards, dice, etc. Q: How do I play? A: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3gPu9pp2WOM Players alternate actions to prepare and roll dice into their pools, then use those dice to support themselves, deal damage, etc. Players can also play support cards and upgrade cards which may or may not grant additional dice to be rolled. Q: What the gently caress do all those symbols mean? A:  Q: Aren't CCGs soul and wallet draining nightmares? A: Yes. But this is kept to a minimum by keeping decks small (30 cards) and only allowing two of any given non-unique card. Links https://www.fantasyflightgames.com/en/products/star-wars-destiny/ Rules, Etc. Q: Is there any way I can play this without spending a ton of money? A: Well, no, that would constitute copyright infri-https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=764462825 Deviant fucked around with this message at 20:13 on Dec 2, 2016 |

I will note re: a second finn, extra starting dice increases the likelihood that you'll get to go first and choose the battlefield. I have no idea how much impact that has, but you'd probably want to be on your own.

KongGeorgeVII posted:Pretty much. Otherwise your normal mitigation should work as long as you meet the requirements. If they have the battle field and roll it in first though it can be tough to stop. My current deck is not super mitigation heavy, but relies on being as angry and fast as possible: quote:4x First Order Stormtrooper (28/30 points) I suppose this just tries to get rolling before Launch Bay can set up. Might swap in a Night Sister to get access to blue/power of the dark side to use all the blanks on the stormtroopers OR a Tusken Raider to open yellow.

Bottom Liner posted:3 Ttormtrooper 1 Tusken? What are you running with them and what's the general idea? I've been surprised by the amount of burst damage that can be setup in this game so far so I've been weary of low hp characters getting gibbed super fast. It's not my favorite option and I don't have a concrete deck built for it, but it was suggested to me. I'm seeing Go For the Kill, Black Market. the deck is still mostly red and just leans really hard on ranged damage, plus Endless Ranks to give it an effective 40some hit points

Dr. Clockwork posted:How did they structure the tournament? We are trying our first event today and have 13 players. We're doing 75min rounds, best 2 out of 3. I feel like we will end up with a lot of draws and I'm interested to see how FFG structures the official rules. I feel like the game can play quickly if people are up to speed, and one-and-done feels bad if you lose to Grievous aggro in 10 minutes. it was just 3 quick one and done rounds. nothing fancy.

I suspect you'll want the holocron, what with it being a fantastic card, though Jango might be more useful if you're not running a force deck. I was really hoping to get ahold of both (working two different deck concepts), is there another rare from my list you'd like?

I got excited earlier when I thought I could roll with Finn and run Crime Lord in my deck, but no go since his ability only applies to weapons and vehicles. Right now the best thing is Thermal Detonator which is a straight 3 damage from the hand to every opposing character. Obviously gonna roll with Launch Bay and Black One. I could still run with Finn which gives me access to AT-ST. He turns First Order TIE into a better copy of Intimidate. Or AT-ST Falcon shenanigans?
