Packing Up 1.0 - How are you doing it?

Personally, I'm going to sort all my first edition cards, templates, bases, dials and tokens by type, faction etc, seal them in plastic bags along with a copy of the rules, faq and a handwritten note, lock them in a waterproof strongbox and drive out into the country.

When I'm sufficiently far from civilisation, I'll follow the path by the tumbledown stone wall to the old oak tree at the corner of the field, and take thirty paces west from it's base.

At that spot, I'll dig a hole five feet deep, place the strongbox in the hole and bury it, marking the spot with a stone from the wall.

And then I'll wait.

I think I'll find myself several other rocks that look suitably similar to yours. Fields look so much more scenic when scattered liberally with stones.

I'll be sorting my cards in order of personal favourite -> least favourite cards. Top 36/49/64 will form a laminated poster, and I'll probably cover a table in the rest and use resin to smooth it over.

I might destroy some of my worse painted and least favourite cards and use them as debris in 2.0.

Farmers don't always agree, mind you! ?

I archived things this weekend. Dials and ship templates into Ziploc bags, then into a small box. The First Edition binder and that small box go into a slightly larger box, then under the bed. Took the opportunity to reorganize the tackle boxes, and since I'm very probably not playing S&V in Second Edition, I managed to get all of my Rebel, Resistance, Empire, and First Order ships into the largest tackle box. I don't think I'll get into Republic or Separatist either, so I think I'm good for a while.

OK. Now THAT is a cool idea.

I desleeved all my cards and put them in the various plastic bags that came with all the ship expansions (I don't know why I kept them but now I'm glad I did). All those bags together with all the stuff from 1.0 I won't need anymore fit nicely into the starter kit box and will now live on a cupboard in my basement. I know I could throw it all away, but although I'm not a collector it still has some sentimental value to me. So for now I'll keep it.

On a side note, if anyone is planning on tossing your 1.0 cards/dials/cardboards, don't. PM me, I'll pay for shipping and a little more.
