  1. No, they count as an objective on your victory pile, so they factor into the 3 obj win for LS, and DS dial increase for DS.

    There is a rules insert present in each Endor cycle pack, between plastic and cardboard, detailing in/out of faction terminology, and mission rules.

    You can find a scanned copy here : http://www.cardgamedb.com/forums/index.php?/topic/29345-mission-rules/#entry230121

    since it seems it is not available to download on the game's official page.

    ...over twelve months later... do you still feel that the game is not dying?

    I cannot speak for anyone else's community or situation but it was interesting to find out that there was 134 less players this Regionals season so far compared to last year's. This, of course, is only focusing on the competitive play in the United States and not abroad and it only focused on the competitive play. We have absolutely no clue the amount of players there are that play it casually, we only have the competitive scene to go off of in terms of whether we are gaining or losing players.

     

     

    Are you sure of this ? Yodaman states attendance seems to be on par for now, and should be at the end of season at this rate, perhaps will end up a little higher with a bit of luck : http://www.cardgamedb.com/forums/index.php?/topic/22429-regional-attendance/page-2#entry179641


  3. I only know of three right now:

     

     - http://jediwars.com/SquadBuilder : a work in progress, currently allows selection of squads and command cards, tallies total costs, but missing some core functionality (like saving)

     - http://ia-armies.com/ : functional builder with all cards, saving, and printer friendly (i.e. white background)

     - https://boardgamegeek.com/filepage/112702/star-wars-imperial-assault-skirmish-army-builder-t : fully functional builder, desktop application (download to use), Windows only. A bit spartan in its UI design, but highly useful.

     

    I'm sure others will pop up as time goes on. X-Wing has what, at least 3 different squad builders?

    Please not that the third works on linux by installing mono (i run it on ubuntu 14.04), and should also work in macOS.


  4. It actually happened to us last night. We were in a tight spot with my light side associate, the ds was just getting to get enough resources to get the dsii to flip.

    We got the force for the first time in the entire game at the end of our turn ), then played My ally is the force for 3, killing vador, palpatine, shuttle, 2x ties and something else i can't remember, effectively clearing his whole board (no one was commited except one focused chud since he didn't need to). He then played his death star ii (we pretty much had no defense btw) using all his resources, used it to destroy an objective that would have made him win the game, and then i sabotaged it using my last 2 resources.

    We couldn't believe it since no one saw it coming ! it's completely awesome !!

    my favorite LS combo is just so fun to set up and takes down the devastator barely breaking a sweat. have an all hoth objective board, play with pods 43 and 38, and 39 (but thats optional)

    First card you want to get off is the most amazing hoth card which is Echo Base (resource, objective health, and +1 hoth objectives. Second card is either Echo Defender,though wilderness fighter would be best, he now has 4 black blasters and 2 edge blasts, then you if you play Hoth Survival gear, he gains 4 more health, making him a 6 health monster who is going to kill anything you have unless you can tactics him! -like the above, you can use all 3 cards with only 4 resources!-

     

    Totally agree with you on this one ! Love it and intend to play at regionals ;
