Hi my Google Force is weak we have a player who has a short allotment of time to play this on Wednesday night. I'm curios as to how long it'll take to play this mission? The map looks fairly small.

Thanks in advance.

As a side mission in particular, it's almost impossible to say. I've read of people finishing this mission in 1 or 2 turns. On the other hand, I could see it dragging out much longer.

Then again, the speed that you guys play could vary greatly. One of my groups plays rapidfire, and can finish almost any mission in less than an hour. Another has much more analysis, and can take up to 4 hours to play a single mission.

Whenever time is a factor, I typically choose to just not play- I'm the kind of person who gets pretty frustrated whenever games get interrupted, so better to just wait until you have more time.

Thanks for the response. Unfortunately we only get together once a month or so. He said we'll have to finish the mission without him but obviously we'd like to avoid that. He has 2 hours approx.

Well, if you have the mission all set up ahead of time, I'd imagine you could probably power through this one in 2 hours- but again, you know your group much better than I do.

I'm not the Imperial player but I have the game and set up as much as I can.

Nice looking set up!

Thanks. It's a Costco table on top of a Costco table. Works really well with IA & Descent.

I like the shuttle, too! Nice touch!

I was almost like they designed the tile with using the shuttle intentionally.

What shuttle is that? X-Wing?

Huh. Yeah, it really does almost fit perfectly!

I believe it has a 5 turn limit, which is on the shorter side. We did it in probably 10 minutes by being very "objective oriented."

Thanks. Our group has been too kill heavy we've lost 2 story missions and won the Leia side mission.

Awesome setup.

It's 7 rounds

Thanks to all who replied. It took us 1 hr and 20 mins to lose.

Biv and Mak are two of the best tin-can openers there are, I'm surprised you didn't win. Did you lose Luke before it spawned, because he does pretty crazy damage to it too.

we made the crucial mistake of trying to kill the AT-ST with Luke, he did 15 damage, instead of hiding Mak our only unwounded hero.

We almost won this one - got it within 2 HP then had the last hero flip. The chicken rolled a double 3 block. And Saska's dodge was nowhere in sight...

Close game though. Fun.

That shuttle looks great on the board....went to look at prices on ebay to pick one up...wow...£30?
