I absolutely love this game. It takes into account pretty much all the things I want out of a game. Competition, Strategy and Star Wars

There are a lot of ins and outs. While the basic game is the same, being familiar with the cards, ships, pilots, mods, etc can definitely give you a boost over a less knowledgeable opponent.


I love flying the ships. I am a huge Star Wars fan so getting to use my knowledge of Star Wars in a competitive and strategic way is the best of both worlds.


The miniatures look great and the art on the cards is always cool. There are also additional and rare cards you can get from participating in and winning tournaments.


There is a large and fun community based mostly around comic and game shops that play this game. There is also an annual competition that is very high stakes. (I have never been.)


Finally, though it can be a costly game to get into, when compared to most miniature games, it is probably one of the least expensive and the start up cost is only $40.


All in all, the main thing I want from this game is to get to play it more. And that's on me.
