Edited by Rakky WistolGround-ish game... Imperial Assault
Zero interest in buying this, although I probably wouldn't turn up my nose if a friend had it for occasional play on a board game night.
Anything Star Wars is good news to me.
This seems like an afterthought in the wake of Armada....
depends on how good the minis are... might be useful... but if you're going third faction AND armada...and this? Too much good stuff...
This could be so awesome. Imagine the sweet campaigns you could do:
Armada -> X Wing -> Ground Assault
Looks like nice models, but seriously, between X-wing, Armada, and the rest of life, this just becomes so low on the priorty scale.
Yeah I think wanting a more substantial ground based game on top of armarda and a third faction is unrealistic, next year though...
Looks lame tbh, but ill keep an eye on it.
Eww, I do not like.
This looks to be more like Decent:Star Wars, then a real ground based mini game.
The slide specifically mentions that it's inspired by Descent's rules.

And there is a problem with this how? Descent happens to be a brilliant game, and if you could somehow integrate this with Armada and X-Wing Campaigns would be brilliant!
I don't t think this is meant for X-Wing players specifically, but for the Star Wars RPG crowd, or those who love Descent-style games. But it's still cool none-the-less.
As I said earlier in Crabbok's Imperial Assault: nooooooooooooooo.com (it is a real site look it up, it's hilarious)
100% not interested!
Unless it turns out to be very good. Looks cheap to buy though, so that's good.
This looks disappointing. I'd have rather had something on a hex-board than this...series of rooms or whatever...

Not even painted minis. Erk.
Edited by UnfairBananaI'm fine with the minis being unpainted. I mean, honestly, worst case, you can paint them yourself.
Also, if it keeps costs down that would be great. It's not easy keeping up with X wing on a college students budget, plus the fact that Armada is coming out and I need to get it so hard that it's not even funny, y'know? There's so much sick stuff coming out that I don't even know how I'm going to afford all that much less Ground Assault. but it needs to happen.
Took them long enough! http://community.fantasyflightgames.com/index.php?/topic/77502-star-warsdecent/

I completely understand that, being a jobless college student myself. But then I have to buy paints, which costs however much more too. And the game itself, if you read the article, just...doesn't seem so interesting to me. I'll save my limited funds for X-wing, and hopefully Armada if I can afford that.
And there is a problem with this how?
Didn't say anything was wrong with it. But a lot of people have been hoping to see FFG do a table top ground based SW game, something closer to 40k/Warmachine/Infinity/ect... Which this isn't.
So nothing wrong with it, just not what some where hoping for.
Yeah, I'm unsure about this. Hex based or table based might have been better. Unfamiliar with descent, but could be promising.
Not what I wanted to see, probably wont even consider buying it!
Concept is cool. Execution looks weak. Board looks like CandyLand.

Exactly this
