    So it seems we're continuing with the concept of expansions by the way of replacing a good portion of the contents for a new set of cards instead of adding to what there is.  I like it!  The Game has become an engine with multiple modules.  So we can keep it interesting and new without making things longer and longer.

     


  2. I'd say the chance of no expansions is pretty small.  It's been flying off shelves.  Both CSI and MM are sold out, and I know CSI has gotten in restocks at least once.  FFG positioned it to be expandable, giving it it's own product code sequence.  I do think to an extent that they floated this as an experiment.  A smaller box card game with expandability that won't reach LCG level.  I honestly believe that this has expandability options approaching Decent/Imperial Assault levels, but with LCG or cheaper cost models.


  3. Definitely bigger than a mouse pad.  Figure you need space for 8 cards to be clearly visible in both ready and exhausted position (though the player card is always landscape).  With probably a little extra room for tokens/gear.  Gear is mini cards, but everything else is full sized.

     

    My mat is this: http://quivergaming.com/

     

    I've got the 40x58" version of the Light of Knight.  It's a much heaver mat than a typical playmat.  Thankfully I have a dedicated gaming table that I can leave it out on all the time.


  4. Hi Mickatron, you can engage an enemy from another hero's engagement zone or an enemy from the shadows as long as the text on the enemy card doesn't provent it from being engaged. This is a good way to draw heat off another hero in trouble.

    When engaging an enemy from the shadows, you flip the card face up.

     

    This answer bothers me since there's no explicit rule that states it.  Logically to me a hero would need a special ability like the Iornbreaker "Shield Wall" to engage off of someone else.  I guess I'm thinking along the lines of a MMO, where you have to have some taunt skill to refocus the enemy away from it's target.  All that being said, there's nothing that says you can't do it either.
