Ugh. Now I really wish I was there.

That is pretty awesome. Thanks for posting that!

As a side note, I really wish that FFG would get more creative with the promo cards. Just alternate text? Let's get some full-bleed art and also some alternate art.

I heard that art is one of their biggest expenses which is why they've shied away from alternate art.

I generally agree, but honestly, the cards are already pretty close to full bleeds unless they started omitting parts of the text or shrunk it down. To FFGs credit, around 50% of the cards are art already.

Personally, I'd like to see more of the unique gaming aid stuff. A not-cardboard DS dial (Im thinking along the lines of the honor dials that a lot of people had in L5R) would be especially nice, even better if they did different faces for them over time DS1, DS2 faces as well as maybe "target planets" like Alderaan, Yavin 4, Dantooine, etc. In fact a whole planet lineup would be cool..

Netrunner gets unique art. i feel like SW is not shown much love, especially when they have oodles of it laying around for the RPG.

Some GenCon news. Just over 100 players. 5 rounds. Cut to top 16.

Me too. The alternate card is just one more on the list of reasons I wish I was there. Oh well, at least I'll be at Worlds.

Same. I had to choose between Worlds and Gencon and chose Worlds. Really wish I could have done both.

Anyone know yet who/what won the Nationals tourney?
