CC - Building bases and outposts

By sigmazero13, in Star Wars: Armada Rules Questions

Just starting a Corellian Conflict campaign with my daughter. In reading the rules, I had one question about resources and bases.

Rebel bases cost 15, outposts cost 0. The rules say to mark it with presence on the map, but secretly record which it is. Does this mean resources are hidden info? If not, there would be no point to the secrecy, since the Empire would know which it is by the number of points spent.

Same with gaining resources each round to a smaller degree. In that case you would just know how many outposts vs bases by the number of resources gained, not necessarily where they are, but as the game progresses it could be deduced.

Thanks.

Resources are not secret so it could be deduced. This works this way to prevent unfair play I think.

BUT

It is casual so house rule it as you wish. I think the fair play between you and your daughter should be indubitable... unless you were a regular Diplomacy player :D

Basically, what Ovinomanc3r said. You are right, so house rule how you want to play it. I find in my current campaign (4 player) that we just aren't paying that much attention to each others resources/spending to be able to figure it out, as we have too many other things to spend our attention on :)
