How often do you play?

By PhantomFO, in X-Wing

I'm curious about this, especially with the new Store Championship season already upon us. How often do you play X-Wing?

I used to play several times a week, between the FLGS and Vassal, but the combination of work and Fallout 4 has cut that down drastically. I've gotten in maybe 4 games total in the last six weeks, and will need to shake the rust off and get some practice before Store Champs.

I play every Sunday at my FLGS. I usually have enough time for two standard games or one Epic game or special scenario.

I also play occasionally on VASSAL, maybe once a month or so when I get the itch to play between Sundays.

Of course, I also spend a TON of time on these forums, on Reddit's /r/xwingtmg, and on squad builder sites between games.

Anywhere between 3-5 games a week on Vassal.

Around 3 games a month in person.

Travel time and hauling stuff to work are the biggest barriers for me.

I should start packing a few ships, templates, and dice in a small Plano box for casual games after work. Battlescribe instead of bringing my card binder.

I play most weeks on Thursday night from about 5-11. I can get a bunch of games in during that time.

There are times when I can't, like the Holidays or last night. Family obligations required me to watch my son last night. So, I haven't played in a few weeks. It's killing me.

I tried Vassal once, but I gave up on it. Too difficult.

At least 1 night a week usually good for 2-4 games depending. Ramping up more this month for store champ season to 2-3 nights a week.

Currently only rarely, but that's because I've inundated myself with projects, and my wife isn't happy with the state of the house to entertain.

Generally once a week

3-4 games a week I'd guess.

As often as I possibly can

Every Monday night at my FLGS.

I go to FLGS 2-4 times a week and play 1-3 games each day but our weekly Saturday tournaments allow me to get in 5-6 games easy.

I have yet to play vassal

Once a week, but I fiddle with the ships and come up with new squads every other night, at least.

I come up with "unbeatable lists" every time I get high or drunk and start looking at squad builders at 2am, only to find out all I did was make a swarm of tie bombers or something the next day lol

My FLGS runs 2-round events every Monday and Friday evening; I regularly attend the Friday nights. It also runs monthly tournaments that - if I can get a leave pass from the CinC (which means leaving her with the kids for the day) I will attend too.

2-3 games/week in person

1-2 games/month on Vassal (only with my brother)

1-2 games weekly. More during tournament season when I can squeeze them in.

On Thursdays 3 games.

On Fridays 3 games.

Sometimes 3 games on Sunday.

Sometimes a game or two on Tuesdays.

Haven't tried Vassal yet.

Not often enough. It's been a couple of months, between coordinating schedules and other games' campaigns finishing up.

I have the same answer for this thread, as I do the "How many ships do you have?" thread; "Not enough."

I get between 0-2 games in person, if fates (or friends) aren't conspiring to keep me away from the FLGS.

I've only just started to dabble in Vassal, but I'm looking to play one game a week on there minimum. Though, hopefully not all of them last as long as my first vassal game, which isn't technically over yet either.

With me, getting time to go to FLGS (as all over the bridge..., the local only does magic), difficulty getting friends over (none drive, i can't really leave kids alone) The aforementioned projects and wifes constant wanting of the new house to be better (in actual fact if you ask me it's fine... it's fine for her friends funnily enough......)

A couple of times a month, typically. There aren't that many players in my area, most of them are 30+, and there is no regular X-Wing night at the shop.

Between the holidays and being a noobie, I've only had the opportunity to play a couple times. I'm trying to organize bi-weekly play with a couple of my friends who're on the same shift as me and I've gotten into the game as well. My work schedule is... odd, so it's difficult to do much else.

Between wife, 2 young kids and a ridiculously busy job, not as frequently with other people as I would like but I play against myself a lot in the evenings when the family are in bed and I have nothing to do. It beats playing video games relentlessly :)

There aren't that many players in my area, most of them are 30+, ...

At this point I was nodding my head, thinking, "Yeah, I know how that goes." And then I realized that I am one of those 30+ gamers. :(

Ugh! I know right, sudden realization that one is in fact old balls. It's enough to put grey in my hair.

I play once a week at least, maybe more. Since I started painting full time I haven't had much time for gaming. At least I get to paint all the ships I can't afford!
