    Shado got a reaction from TylerTT in sleaving and storage   
    Just make your own tuck boxes to fit a sleeved deck. Could use cereal box cardboard with the brown inside facing out and label each box with the decks Archon name and Houses on it.
    Or, if you took certain cuts of certain boxes, you could glue them together with the coloured sides facing out and have some unique, colorful designs.
    Cheap and easy way to store your decks.

    Shado got a reaction from Rogue_Group1 in 1-Attack Die ships?   
    I have been waiting for this ships release, and think it would make a good support ship in the way as the HWK does. It could be designed at a low enough cost to make it a worthy, cheaper alternative support ship to the Lambda. And as a more maneuverable, more fragile, small based ship, it would play a fair bit differently than the Lambda. I can't see this ship not being released someday due to FFG's insistence on releasing TIE designed ships, and this one having Imperial written all over it, and that it would play completely different than every other TIE variant in the game so far.Edit: A very possible future 1 attack die ship, IMO.
    Edit: Actually, at 24 meters, I don't think this ship would fit a small base. The JM-5k is only 20.1 and its on a large base. I would think it would be comparable in width to the scout.

    Shado reacted to wakefieldbw in Collateral Damage clarification   
    Let's try to deduce intent. Collateral Damage is a 0 cost card. It let's you resolve damage, which is free, AND remove an opponents resource, which typically costs either an action, or a resource or both.
     
    Seems like adding the ability to resolve mixed damage, ALA All-in for example, which costs 1 resource, would be excessive based on 0 cost.

    Your opponent gets one action, the action phase ends, then he gets all of his other actions which automatically become passes.

    The rules for additional actions are on page 15. Note the red text stating that they don't enter the queue.

    Or you could just pick a dice of theirs with a good result and another you want to remove they reroll them both and have them lose one and possibly get a worse result on the other, while not exposing one of your dice to risk

    Yeah, you can gamble big and choose one of yours and an opponent's.
    Having played the card a lot, 99.99% of the time you just choose two of your opponent's dice.
    You get to remove one and potentially force a re-roll on the other by essentially changing it to a result they don't want.

    This is a good question:

    Here's another question:
    Regardless of the official ruling, would you really ever put a smuggling freighter in your Poe deck?

    I'm wanting to use Overconfidence with an ePalpatine deck. His dice side's being 3,2,2,2,1,- means he stands a good chance of having his die roll higher on average than most others.
    Thanks for the clarification.

    well, you have to weight the chances which one will come up with the lower value though... you might end up giving the opponent a good result and removing yours :-)

    Shado reacted to Red Castle in Darth Vader - Dark Apprentice Question   
    This part is actually irrelevant, since it is dealing with 'When a player distributes damage as they wish', those situations when you can actually split the damage dealt to multiple targets, to prevent players to overkill one target to prevent damage on a second character. 
    Vader special damage cannot be split. The 3 damage is still dealt, regardless of if the target character has 1 2 or 3 health left.

    Shado reacted to Mikenuguy in Darth Vader - Dark Apprentice Question   
    Please read the rules as everyone looks to be skimming or referencing different rules to answer this question. We are not discussing blocked or taken damage. We are discussing excess/ignored damage. 
    Excess damage cannot be dealt. We've now determined that if a character has 2 HP remaining, baby Vader doesn't deal 3 damage to that character. 
    We can't move on to the "then" effect unless the precious effect is fully resolved, as per the rules which I've quoted further up. We know that the previous effect wasn't fully resolved as Vader only dealt 2 damage. The 1 damage to Vader does not resolve. 
    By everyone's logic in here, scavenge would work regardless of how many cards you discard off your deck but we know that's not the case due to the very specific example used in the rules. 
    Again, excess damage can't be dealt. If Vader doesn't deal 3 damage he doesn't move on to the next part of the ability. Anything before the "then" is essentially part of the cost of the ability. We should be discussing what the rules are as written rather than how we think it should work or how we want it to work.

    I find it rather funny how the guy who is worried about the cost of the models being a fraction of a cent more because of "hand outs" is making judgment calls about people being cheap and on welfare.

    Personally, I'm looking forward to the ET Senator crew card that's suppose to be coming with the release of the Senator's Shuttle expansion.
    Action: You may remove one damage card from a friendly ship.

    Endor. With Ewoks, rebel commandos, standard Imperial army troops, and scout troopers with one scout on a speederbike.
    Or a Corusant campaign would be pretty cool. Could introduce some cool new scum models that way. Troop types could be gangs and police/security forces.

    Shado got a reaction from Boba Rick in What would be your Ship you want FFG to release?   
    When I first was asking my local games shop questions about X-Wing, he showed me an example of how the game mechanics worked by playing the demo for STAW that they had set up. I was already going to buy some X-Wing Miniatures anyways because I thought they looked kick a**, but then after playing the STAW demo I said, "If X-Wing's mechanics are anything similar to this, I will definitely be back for more."
    Honestly, the only thing that's kept me from buying into STAW as well, is the lackluster models.

    Shado reacted to stevensonson in Huge Ship rule turned on its head? (CR-90 can use Esege's focus)   
    There is a difference here, and RAW aren't being violated. CR-90 isn't being assigned a focus token by Esege, it's spending Esege's. If Esege's ability was to give tokens (Like Garven), then RAW would say it would be discarded, which is what happens. The CR-90 is not receiving any tokens in the case of Esege.
