I know that cards are usually somewhat at a premium, but I think this request may actually be reasonable. I finally "gave up" on waiting for the Imperial Squadrons I to exist again, but instead of paying $125 on eBay, I ordered a couple of packs at retail price... from Italy. So, the only downside there is that the pilot cards will be in Italian. Now, I can (and will) print English versions to put in the sleeves, but it would be nice to have the actual cards. Since you only need one set of cards no matter how many squadrons you use, I was hoping somebody could pop a set of their spare ones in an envelope to me. Anybody up for that idea?

(FYI, if anybody else wants to get more squadrons this way, just go to BGG to the pages for Rebel or Imperial Squadrons I and there are marketplace links there. If you click on the user's name, GiochinScatola , then there is a link to their site there. You're just paying the exchange rate to Euros and a decent amount to ship, but it's better than waiting possibly months for these to show up in local stores again.)

Edit: Oh, looks like his name came in clickable in my post. That works too!

Edit 2: Thanks everybody! I got 'em!

Edit, sorry, you were specifically talking Imp...didnt notice that before. Will check!

How can I deny someone with a Star Trek nick?

I have at least the Rebel cards, so consider it done. Need to check on Imps.

Not only ST, but DS9 👍

Weyoun was one my favorites at the show ( after Quark, of course if he was here would be the one who would sell Squadrons for 125 strips of latinum)

What cards are you looking for? Just Aces? I have a few extras from the imp 1 squadrons

Are they really selling for that much? I have a package of both the Rebel I and Imperial I hmm...

New funds for SSD I sense in you 😅

Yeah, the eBay prices are crazy. I felt lucky to get a Rebel I for under $50, but you don't see Imperial I for under $100 very often. I don't know if anybody is actually buying at those prices, but that's what I see.

Oh, and thanks everybody. @The Jabbawookie got at me through PM and is putting them in the mail to me today! But, keep an eye out for other desperate noobs like me who are forced to check the Euro/Dollar exchange rate just to get basic fighters.

Supposedly FFG was working on getting the squadron packs reprinted.... I won't say any more

Yeah, but "in the pipeline" could mean a lot of different timeframes. When you have zero Imperial squadrons with escort, it's rough.

I love the actor who played Weyoun (Jeffrey Combs), mostly from his work as Shran on Enterprise. He understands arrogance. 😂

Don't forget that he was also Brunt, FCA.

And the Question in Justice League Unlimited (who was really played as if he were Rorshach from Watchmen).
