Reprints based on Faqs?

By flaick, in Star Wars: Imperial Assault

Hi all. As you can see on Faqs there are some changes on two Deployment cards: Royal Guard and Rebel Saboteur. Is there any way to have those cards reprinted? Or I have to wait the official FFG reprints and buy a new one?

Printing them out and slipping to sleeves with the original works well enough for me, but there are people who have ordered them from various printing services.

PM me if you want 300 dpi versions of the card graphics (including the other errata'ed ones: Imperial Officer, Hired Gun, and Leia Organa).

Edit: due to the demand... see there.

Game Night Kits? Is there a link to see what they are?

ooh, where do you order them from? I printed some out on cardstock, but it doesn't look near as nice

The new royal guard cards are dual sided I think (elite and regular on either side) as are the saboteurs. The problem is I have 2 packs of them. :rolleyes:

The two-sided ones are just the organized play prizes / alternate art. They don't need to be two-sided.

I just print at work on a thicker sheet (still not card stock, but thicker than normal copy paper), then slip the result in a sleeve with the original card.

I can't find anything in the FAQ about these being changed. I saw in the files you posted what was added to the Hired guns but I saw no difference in Leia. So what was changed and where's the official errata?

Page 6 of the latest FAQ (2.1.1). Leia Organa "a friendly figure" -> "another friendly figure". The same page, next column for Hired Gun.

This was an important change as the obvious original intent was for Leia to do that to "someone else" and not count herself, but a good rules lawyer would obviously abuse that, hence the errata.

That said, I think that's such an easy change that it wouldn't be worth printing out a replacement card/overlay for it.

A similar correction occurs with the "Lone Wolf" card from X-Wing. I think intuitively you'd understand the "spirit" of the card enough to not worry. As for the Guards/Officers/Sabs...

The Hired Gun errata is also only required in the campaign if the imperial player has won a certain attachment (Imperial Industry), which allows them to recover damage as part of their Parting Shot.

Nice work. Weird that some assets move around and change spacing but not noticeable unless you flip back and forth.

Not that it matters but I'm curious about how you made them… Photoshop scans, testing templates....?

For those that want to print on 8.5x11" paper: I made this template PDF (Print at 100%).

Gimp. It can import from PDF at a dpi of your choice (e.g. from the FAQ). The magical selection tool and layers are very useful. I didn't have one image file for all. I built the block in one and copied to the other. It looks like some are 1050 and some 1051 pixels high. It should not be a real issue though.

You can find the game night reprint versions of the Royal Guard cards on Ebay. The nice thing is they are double sided (red version on oneside, grey on the other). Pricey though. I just paid $20, plus shipping, for two of them off one seller. Haven't seen Saboteurs on there yet. Have those Game Night kits even released yet with the Saboteur cards?

Thank you so much for this!

could you update it with Alliance Smuggler, Smuggler's Run and skirmish cards: Self-Defense, Smuggler's Tricks, Heart of Freedom errated cards if you have them. Thanks

What changes have been made to them? I don't see any in the FAQ.

Sorry for confusion before I came across your scans I've found another one that had Smuggler cards as well so I thought they have been errated as well.
