Another good one is "ask your daughter" Keep her engaged.

Always the best way to buy imo. Good advice here.

If I had more monies I'd actually have more ships.

I'm the guy who likes to host detailed narrative campaigns, with the odd huge epic battle that lasts several games sessions.

Sad thing is until i get a few ducks in a row my ability to do this will be limited.

You know... South Florida is a popular vacation spot. Come on down and we can put together a game.

[...]I prefer narrative myself. Don't worry too much about the cards, title cards like the BTL upgrades, TIE/D, X1 etc.. just proxy.

I love missions and narrative too and, recently started to proxy but still have at least one of every card.

Florida is just south of Nova Scotia.

So far that's the most possible of options...
