My Dilemma

By kinnison, in X-Wing

Love the models. Incredible detail.

I bought the core game when it came out. Dislike the rules system, i am a bit too old school playing Ace of Aces, Blue Max, Crimson skies, etc where in order to hit something they had to be directly in front of my craft, and within a few inches/hexes. I feel like I am a blind man moving around the game board with my arms extended 45 degrees on both sides and holding 12 foot poles, all it takes is a little turn an i can hit something

later on bought the YT-1300

I play the RPG and most of my 'fun' money goes to that. But I doubt I am ever going to play the miniature game. I will be buying the Corellian Corvette, cannot pass up on such an iconic ship and the superb detail on the model

BUt I really have a hard time justifying $15 per a model for use in my RPG

oh well, ignore me, just griping

OK, good idea.

If you're just looking for EotE and AoR rpg minis check ebay for the old micro machines Star Wars Action Fleet, they're closer in scale to standard minis and come with little figures that you could glue to bases. There's far cheaper ways to get rpg minis than using the x-wing expansions.

Or wait for the upcoming Star Wars COMMAND, which is being put out by Hasbro and is a bunch of minis.

Have you actually played the game? Or just trolling?

Played it, hated it, it was boring and too simple for my tastes.

I have actual playtest credit for a few games put out by WizKids. Doesn't make me an expert, but I have experience working closely with game designers

But I might look into "command"

XD

I'd love to know what's complex enough for your tastes.

I don't see a dilemma here. Clearly you've made up your mind, so move along.

Okay, hold on. You could tell X-wing was too simple with a very limited number of playthroughs, but WizKids games are okay with you?

And how is "experience working closely with game designers" anything but a non-sequitur into an appeal to authority?

Sorry you don't like the game. Send all your minis to me; it will ease your heartache.

I don't understand. What are we suppossed to discuss ?

Is this the right place or do I need to make a new thread to declare that I do not like fruit cake?

You should really go find a fruitcake forum, full of fruitcake fans, to drop that bombshell...

I don't think such a thing exists.

A forum full of fruitcakes? I think you're on one, sir.
