Would this be the first LCG by FFG that behooves a player to actually buy multiple force packs due to a deck being able to have more than one of a particular objective set?

I ask out of ignorance, as I don't play the game, but I'm considering getting into it. With all the other FFG's I've played--such as LoTR and Netrunner--it's completely pointless to buy more than one Adventure/Data Pack.

So has FFG marketed their newest LCG in a rather devious way, enticing the player to buy multiple copies of particular ones, when that wasn't viable/feasible with past LCGs?

Thanks for the constructive replies!

Your answer is just a few threads down but in short, if you want to be super competitive you'll need to buy two Core/Deluxe sets and one of each force pack.

unlike before, SW:TCG can only have up to 2 of the same objective set, so you need to buy only 2 core sets to have every card you need from them (as opposed to needing 3 of each with A:NR, LotR, AGoT because there are cards that only have one copy in the core). Then one of each force pack, 2 EoD, and 1 BotF.

I see that now. :/

Thanks for your input.

Don't need multiple force packs unless you don't want to tear apart decks using the same objective set. Personally, I keep all my objective sets sorted and build decks on the fly ALA Dominion.

If anything, Star Wars LCG is the one you don't need to buy multiple chapter/force/story/data packs. It's the easiest one to deck build.

Netrunner for example could need multiple packs unless you write down deck lists... you can't really build netrunner decks on the fly like SWLCG tho.
