    Nah I would keep coming and try and do casual play.   I am going with a Navy swarm and really trying to find a good combo with Crix/Jan plus my 2 friends who came had a blast (one of em really needs experience players help though, he went 0-8 (bye) and never got his Dial up past 6 and never saw turn 5 as Light Side and destroyed only 2 objectives all day.   I am nowhere near good enough to offer anything but very obvious advice

    So at New England qualifiers I saw 16/21 players using a Dash/Freeholders combo with the Falcon.  Some added in the Blockade Runner/Sleuths others the Han/Lando pods but it was deja vu all day.  And really frustrating to see a game with this many cards limited to 2 variation decks.

     

    As a first tournament experience that was a downer.  Everyone was nice and all but I'm hoping this gets fixed STAT.

     

    Until it does though, what's a good dark side counter?  Palpatine/Weequay/Jabba/Mara capturing and Tactics icons up the wazoo? Has anyone found a good way to shut this down?  I lost all 3 matches to these jokers on their second turn (one guy got an absurd opening hand of 3 Freeholders, One Falcon and two of the drawing 2 cards each event which I assume is just a one in a thousand NPE and not something I can do anything about, he was nice enough to even feel bad for me afterwards)

    Just some random thoughts on this topic.  FFG seems different than Decipher in that every single character to get 2 seconds of time in the movies doesn't get a character but I think we may get some.

     

    Here's my 2 cents

     

     

    BIggs - Obviously a Rebel Pilot of some sort.

     

    General Dodonna - Rebel leader.  I could see him getting made.

     

    Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru - Jedi support units maybe?

     

    General Tagge - Imperial Navy clearly

     

    Admiral Ozzel - How to make a card based on a guy so stupid you want to kill him yet he's still playable?  Again for the Navy

     

    I could see Ree Yees and Tessek getting made as they've had figures since the old days.  Scum and Villainy needs someone beyond Jabba, Bib, Salacious and a bunch of Bounty Hunters.  Maybe a Rancor Keeper that, when out, protects your side from the Rancor? 

     

    Wicket - Not sure how the Ewoks are going to work.  Spread out throughout the Light Side factions or a gray series?  Chief Chirpa and Logray have a shot at being made as well I'd guess.

     

    Nien Nub - Rebel pilot or Spies and Scoundrels pilot you think?

     

    Sim Aloo - Maybe for the Sith?  He had a figure made in the old days and is the Imperial Advisor most people vaguely remember.  If not him, then who else from the actual movies could you make for the Sith?

     

    Also regular versions of Piett and Jerjerrod I would guess.

     

     

    I'm going to guess if we ever get Prequels it will be the Grand Army of the Republic, The Combined Naboo Defenses, The CIS and.............can't see the Trade Federation getting their own faction but who else would you pick?

    Any thoughts on this?

     

    The Emperor's Web

    Fall of the Jedi x2

    Scouring the Empire x2

    The Executor Arrives x2

    Agent of the Emperor x2

    Counsel of the Sith

     

     

    My only concern is the deck is too reliant on main characters and good spread out tactics could shut it down.  It did go undefeated in my local play group at least.

    So one of the members of my play group tried his first deck today.  He asked me to post it for suggestions and feedback

     

    Rebel Alliance

     

    Hold the Line

    To Arms

    Hit and Run

    Blue Squadron Support

    Mission Briefing

    Commando Operations x2

    Forward Reconaissance

    Frozen Refuge

    The Rebel Fleet

     

    I'm lost as to the deck.  I think he wants to build a cheap human swarm deck.  Possibly a Rebel Commando theme deck.  Any help would be appreciated

    So I have myself and 2 friends wanting to start playing local tournaments and play.

     

    But we only have 2x Core Set.

     

    I realize we COULD just buy a third boxset but its seems sort of a waste to do that just for Death Star Dials and Force cards.

     

    So my question is how picky are most players on this?  Will they loan a Death Star dial for a match to their opponent (and the opposite side's cards) or do I have to blow the $30 on another base set (I suppose I could find someone playing on their own and go half, letting them keep the actual game play cards)

     

    Any thoughts?  I realize this is more a courtesy/rules question than a straight rules question so my bad if it needs to be in another folder.
