Good sound quality. Two quibbles, one it wasn't an actual strike ever on the US west coast docks. Also this lasted for several months not weeks as you claim. It started last Fall. Two, skirmish wasn't added simply to make it seem like a non board game. I've heard people say this a few times and it's simply not true.

Thanks. I know that the negotiations were going on since fall, but I though there was a legitimate strike during January. My bad :(

I know the skirmish is a hot topic ... let us speculate a bit. Especially with Hasbro still pumping out Star Wars stuff, it doesn't feel far fetched. But even if it isn't true, that's even better as it opens up avenues for story only expansions.

And of course, thanks for listening.
