Hi Everyone,

My biggest issue with the missions in mission control are they 95% require you to use certain build of ships. Why is that?

I could see one or even two, but all of them. It really takes the fun out of the missions.

My group and I don't even both to play them. We looks for missions that are given points to build.

For instances. Rebels have 100 pts , empire has 85 pts, etc. Each player can build his team anyway he wants.

Why do people not make missions like this? How does everyone feel about this? Do you like being forced to play with a defined list for missions?

I',m trying to gauge what everyone thinks?

Thanks,

A lot of folks like to set up certain scenarios, I know when I set the ones up for me and my kids I set them up so I'm slotted certain ships.. and then I let the kids pick from the point value telling them things like Okay boys remember, you need to disable that ship there, so you need ion stuffs don't forget that.

Some of the builds they come up with are exciting to play against. Specially when I play from a dm's stand point and the tie fighter veers off what seems like an easy kill to go after his objective

but that's me.

It's a common soft critique I have for scenarios, and something I avoid in almost all of mine.

For many people, building lists is a lot of the fun that they have playing the game. Dictating the ships they will bring takes that fun away. It's something that should only be done when absolutely necessary for the scenario in my opinion.

My problem with mission control is that you can't rightclick open in new tab when browsing. Awesome idea, badly implemented.

Babaganoosh, your guide and recommendations pretty much make it for me, thanks for putting the time in!

Thanks! I'm actually overdue to update the list of good missions, there have been several published recently that should definitely be on that list. I should also really include quick descriptions of each mission on that list to make it easier to browse. One of the hardest things to do in MC is finding missions to play. Lack of categories and previews make browsing very difficult.

My biggest problem with Mission Control, is that it hasn't been updated since it was released. Where are all the new ships and upgrades?

EDIT: Also, I only just now noticed that you have my missions in your guide, Babaganoosh. Thanks for that! I will return to that campaign if FFG ever updates their tool.

If your missions are in there then you earned it!

I am also obviously hoping for an update. It's a little encouraging that MC as a featured tool for X-wing has been preserved through FFG's recent website facelift. Hopefully the guys who were working on the facelift will be able to work on an update for MC in the near future.
