X-Wing - FFG does STar Wars fighter combat

[eldargal]

That would be great. With measurements! Y-wing should be 5.9cm long if they are doing the scale right.

It all turned up on Thursday and have opened it just for you

Here is a quick photo for size comparison.
I have not had a chance to play yet, or even read the rulebook. I shall read it today and report back later. Promise


Here is one with a ruler.


If you include the sensors at the front it's pretty much 5.9 cm bang on.

Ever since the forum update i can't seem to get pictures to work. I can only post a link.
When I go to post an image it says invalid file. Any ideas?

Thanks, they look nice and while not quite as large as I hoped still large enough. Especially with that level of detail and a paintjob that seems rather good.

To add pictures you need to add them as attachments as you've done, then take the attachment URL and edit it into the post with image tags, like this:

Without the spaces. Also uncheck the 'retrieve remote file and...' option.

Heroine!
I tried it without the unclicking before. Thank's for the knowledge bomb.

They're not bad are they. I'm just looking through the rules and different pilot cards now.

Do post feedback when you play the game too, it would be nice ot have some idea how it works. It will influence my purchase, originally I was going to buy one of everything but I'm not sure if it would be worth having three TIE Fighters and two X-Wings and everything else, or just stick with the starter set options. But I heard the expansion TIE and X-Wings have different pilot options...

A mate of mine bought 2 box sets and we played a few games the other day. The minis look quite nice, but not overwhelming. The rules set is simple, and very similar to wings of war, but not exactly like it. Individual fighter craft get different stats and cost different amounts. have varying initiative levels depending upon the stat card, and the game plays quite quickly.

FFG have a [URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PuhwSma960Y&sns=em"]video tutorial here[/URL] which I haven't had a chance to watch yet.

As they are adding different pilots and such, if they give an option to tkae [URL="http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Civ%C3%A9_Rashon"]Cive Rashon[/URL] I will be so pleased.

They got the B-Wings, and some of the tie Interceptors in the local shop yesterday. Also some of the tie fighters, and X-wing fighters had better stats on their cards, but cost more points than those with lower initiative, or less abilities.

Very fun game very simple rules, bit underwhelmed by luke skywalker. and you really need to know your left and right....

Second wave has been [URL="http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/edge_news.asp?eidn=3721"]delayed until February[/URL], so now Millennium Falcon or TIE Interceptors 'til then.
