    We have a very small group in the Houston area and we feel like we are barely hanging on. We post in on our Facebook group and have a little sign we put on the table we play at saying we will show you how to play. We are the 4th largest city (likely to pass Chicago soon) and we can't get even average 4 people at our ONE tournament a month.

     

    I am looking for any suggestions. NEED HELP!

     

    Thanks

     If both players have zero force icons to add to the force struggle it is a draw. That means cards like Safe House and Dark Temple don't get to use their effects because it says win. I assume the same is true for Galactic Scum and Hired Hands on taking damage or getting removed. Right?


    When Niles Ferrier takes over a ships does it get the damage or focus tokens it is carrying also? 

    Does flipping over fate cards during an edge counts as initiating it? Allowing for the new Vader effect to stop it?

    Thanks for the help.

    Haven't had any issues yet, but I feel like I am just waiting for the ball-to-drop, so to speak.

    The business card pages are o.k.. I've been using them for about 5 months now. But I'm not happy with them. They hold the card loosely in place and the pages flop over in the center all the time. Very annoying. But it's better than my previous system of keeping them in a small box. I've been playing this game since it first came out and threads like these pop up every so often. FFG NEEDS to produce their own "mini card sleeved" binder pages. If they already make sleeves how much harder can it be to make pages. Or they need to contract Ultra Pro to do this. Either way the we the players want something to keep our cards organized and prize boxes just are not doing the job. Either that or reprint all the cards the same size as the pilot cards and do a redemption program where we the players send in our cards and FFG replaces them with normal size cards.

    I like this idea.  I am not certain but I thought FFG has other games that use this size card.

    I've had some success with Vader, especially with Proton Rockets. Fel is always a safe bet. Not sure about the Sigma. Kinda think they can work well as a team or independents.

    I last played

    Luke + R2D2 + Engine Upgrade 

    Wedge + R2 + Engine Upgrade + PTL

    Biggs + droid

     

    Played well against phantoms... 

    There are Polish X-wing Championships coming in 2 weeks time any tips?? :)

    I like the addition of the engine upgrade to throw off other players.

    I have to agree with one of the local players here.  To many people know the X-wing dial and that alone makes their viability limited.  B's and E's seem like a better option.  X-wings have wonderful pilots but running them solo seems like a thing of the past.

    Perhaps it is only locally (Houston area) but conventions here do not focus on FFG products. I'm certain FFG shares some of this blame but the convention organizers seem more concerned with Pathfinder and Steve Jackson than X-Wing and the ever growing library of FFG. I love me some Munchkin and Pathfinder is a wonderful system but so are many of the products FFG offers. With X-wing's huge player base you'd think conventions would offer a better incentive to draw these players or advertise their desire to bring the community in. Is FFG becoming the next WoC and considered to mainstream or trendy? I am honestly baffled by this and thought I'd share should any others share my pain trying to run tournaments at conventions. Perhaps you can offer ideas to help?

    Other than missiles on the new Z-95 and occasionally on A-Wings, you don't see a lot of squads with ordnance. Has anyone had any success with torps? What is a good build for them? Something like 4 Golds each with protons and flechettes?
