Cool (to me) stuff of note:

  • The 1 & 2-forward templates are Patreon rewards for Thule Squadron Radio, out of Iceland. That shape in the middle is Iceland.
  • The damage deck holder is something DistrictFoundry does normally, with a custom logo for our group I had done for a bunch of us who went to a local team tourney.
  • Those red/blue "star" tokens are courtesy of Hanger 19, from Crossroads Classic. They have some from OutRyder which look more badass, using transparent smoke gray acrylic instead of white.
  • The Lightsaber handle doesn't come painted, but isn't hard to do.
  • There's a Poe LEGO minifig in there. If you play me, that's my LOCK token for Poe. I'll declare "POELOCK" when I use it, except in some parts of Europe, where it might be found offensive.
  • Despite some edge case success from others with BB-8, I think he's too expensive. But, he'll always be in my heart. And on my table.
  • The set is 100% BAD *****.
