I personally would use it on a tablet. A phone is too small, in my opinion. Either if you plugged it into a monitor though.

Zuckuss and 4-LOM have comics outside the films, and books, that Dr. Evizan and Ponda Baba don't have. Many a hardcore Star Wars fan who grew up playing the various tabletop RPGs of the 80s, like WEG, and reading Marvel and Dark Horse comics have a greater attachment to those two. It's like Bossk and IG-88, who share equal time with Zuckuss and 4_LOM but are wildly popular characters. Certain characters I wouldn't want, even though they had a cameo, like Ephant Mon who is almost as bad a character name and character as Therm Scissorpunch. I would say I wouldn't mind an Aqualish, but we have one, and I like Onar. Give me an Aurra Sing. Before Disney wrung out that dreck called Solo from Kathleen Kennedy's soiled hosiery and had Wooden Harrelson declare he killed her, Aurra Sing had been written in Legacy to have survived past the OT. She would have made a much better villain in a story about crime bosses than caterpillar eyebrows Clarke. Disney claims to love diversity but they sure do have a thing for pasty white British ladies as their leads. Sorry, Bill_andel, that rant was not at all aimed at you.

How about Jet Troopers who are immediately warped to their target and get that free extra blue dice. They are very survivable, but rather annoying, especially if their bonus is 'jet blast'

I'm with A1bert on this one. I have organized my tiles primarily by shape. Jabba's realm has some duplicates that are the same as some of the core ones, especially the small end pieces, but it is much easier to find stuff when you separate it by shape. It can be frustrating, I agree, but I prefer this system to fixed maps, because it is so much more interchangeable and allows lots for a great deal of potential scenarios.

I would be more interested in a liberating of Kashyyyk campaign. For me, and wishlist for the app. A little less randomness of spawns. At the very least enforcing the habitat listed on that units card. For instance, I had wing guards come up in Jabba's palace. This doesn't seem right to me. Maybe FFG could secretly keep certain units from spawning in certain situations. I have no problem with a Wampa showing up on Coruscant if it is thematic, but not as random spawn, that wrecks immersion. I also would like to see more allies used as part of the story. That was good in Jabba's realm. It makes the campaign more thematic, and that's what we are all looking for, I believe. Well, not the skirmish guys

I just played through the Jabba's Realm campaign on the app solo and I loved it. I did 4 characters, but some people do two in order not to have so much to keep track of, but I am all in for a 4 man team.

I agree with you. At this point it is just more plastic for the skirmish players and a regular shake up of the meta. I already don't like the trend of adding more mechanics to the game that we've seen in the last two expansions. I too would rather see more app campaigns. I very much enjoyed the Jabba's realm campaign. At this point there are still many heroes I've yet to even try, so there is still a good deal of replay-ability for me, since it can take weeks, or months for me to return for another campaign. Anyway, how different is a K2SO from a Sentry Droid? At this level of granularity, not much, except for having some Rogue One related flavor text ability. It's just more plastic. And, returning to wanting more app campaigns, they are great because the app can modify any units abilities to keep them relevant, something that doesn't happen with the printed campaigns. I have no doubt we are going to see an Endor box at some point. I think we will get Scout Troopers, but it will be interesting how the differentiate them from the many troops we have already.

I was considering using Drokkatta and Gaarkhan in my next play through. To bad I can't guarantee Chewbacca or some Wookiee Warriors for my allies. But who would best pair with those two?

*Spoilers Ho* I finished my first play through for the app. My Jabba's realm arrived last week and I decided to play out via Vassal. I hope to soon set up and try another play through using my gaming table in the near future as I made my share of mistakes. Since I was eager to do the app, I hadn't played the regular campaign, but I think I will do that before another app play through. So, from my prospective I can't compare the two. I thoroughly enjoyed playing the app content, however, more so than Flight of the Freedom fighter. I thought the story could have been a little better thought out, but overall I enjoyed the enemies become friends and friends become enemies twists. I feel like I could sit down and bang out a screenplay based on my play through and it would make an excellent film. Fenn and Biv are my regulars. They've been in 90% of the campaigns I've done. My head canon views them as best of friends. The grizzled Veteran and the ex-Stormtrooper who are sent all over the galaxy by Rebel command recruiting others. In this case, because I just got Jabba's Realm, I'd been waiting to use Vinto. I hadn't thought one way or another about Onar, but I'm glad I chose him, especially towards the end. I may have had to loose him for the final battle, but the rancor, without the huge buffs of the Nal Hutta mission, was actually fairly easy for a buffed up Onar to keep occupied. I even took a piggie with me into the trapdoor, trying to do my part to eliminate enemies for my friends. I didn't want to risk the captives, but I probably could have crawled back and snatched another figure. A buffed up Vinto is also pretty lethal. Between him and Fenn I was able to whittle down Captain Terro through indirect fire while he was flanked by his troops. That was another situation were Onar was good for peeling off a block by pushing a figure away and using Hold Still. Vinto was a bit squishy in the early going. He ended getting withdrawn before the speeder mission, which I had no idea was coming, and that contributed to our loss of that mission because there were just to many enemies. I've read complaints about the squishy nature of E-Webs, but that the trade-off for nearly being able to one-shot a hero. Besides, you don't need to destroy the equipment, just the man controlling it. It would be nice if once you eliminated him, you could take over his gun. I don't knew who I'll take next, but I'm going to attempt to take 4 different heroes. I'd love to hear other players' stories about which characters they took and ways their abilities helped or hindered their campaign.

I used to try and play IA via Tabletop simulator. Sometimes it is a paint to pull the covers off my gaming table and move everything that I or my daughter are working on. I gave up because the models that were available weren't very good, and if I was going to use tokens, I might as well play it in Vassal. To my surprise, the new Workshop project has made some stunning painted scans of many of the miniatures. They aren't quite finished, as there is everything up to before Jabba's Realm for models. I can totally see playing it there once the remaining models have been scanned in. They look great compared to the cardboard standups that were used before.

It would be quite the project to recreate KOTOR in Imperial Assault. I think there is what, 9 characters in Revan's crew? Think about making hero cards and the XP deck for each of them. It would be good for the app because you could do the Dantooine stuff like you do Jabba's palace. So maybe an "intro" mission on the Endar Spire, two missions on Taris, and then two mini-missions linked together for each Star Map planet. A mission to Malek's ship. A mission to Lehon, and then a two part mission on the Star Forge. Still, it couldn't do it justice as you wouldn't get all the backstory dialog and HK-47 hilarity.

I agree. Jar Jar kind of ruined Gungans. If they had been taken a little more seriously, and had something other than thrown weapons, they could have been a decent addition to the alien athenaeum of Star Wars. I would support a Kadu mounted Gungan for a skirmish piece, but I don't think it would be practical to have a hero have it.

There is still room for a Gungan hero. A Gungan hero in the final Battle of Endor expansion. It would be interesting to see FFG's rules interpretation for a man portable energy shield. Maybe something along the line of Personal Shields. Exhaust this card for +2 Block. Deplete this card for +5 Block. Give him extra surges or damage against mechanical units with his atlatl. Or, have it activate any inactivated droid units that round that can affect your own non-living units as well. Then have his electropike and the ability to jump to basically do a Nexu pounce.

And he was.

Ok, I'm confused. This is for the app, right? I hope I'm not missing something and rather I'm missing the joke... was there supposed to be a keeper? Primarily I had Vinto and Onar getting bait and trying to keep the rancor at bay. I'm glad I didn't run out because I didn't know about having to bait it over the the ship. Fortunately for this mission, I recruited Leia Organa by doing a deep space mission prior to the Nal Hutta mission. Then I choose to take IG-88 as my bounty hunter companion. He proved immeasurably badass on normal mode. With his two attacks and Leia assisting with a third, he was laying waste to Imperial figures.

Mission details I would love to see Onar in a live action Star Wars movie.

I didn't want to make another topic, so I'll ask in this one. I'm playing my first time through Jabba's Realm on the app, since I bought the expansion, finally. I haven't played through the normal campaign. This might be spoilers for the app campaign, so I'll hide it as such:

He's been dead before. Besides, lots of people we have figs for are dead.

Maul took Ahsoka hostage and is waiting for the Ghost crew to bring him a holicron.

Like Harry from Harry and the Henderson's?

If an Imperial Officer's orders are to "Order: Another Imperial Figure with a figure cost of 3 or less that can perform an attack..." I have been playing that means the cost on the card, but disagreement arose about that cost being the replenishment cost. That is, a Jet Trooper has a replenishment cost of 2, so a single figure costs 2 points, even though the unit costs 4. Is is the cost on the card, or the reinforcement cost?

Here you go.

I have nothing against Gungans. They are a species, not a character, so a Gungan hero would have been fun.

I'd be willing to wager, in the niche market of Star Wars tabletop RPG that if you put out a 4-LOM/Zuckuss 2 pack and you put out anything from Rogue One or Solo, that wasn't already in the OT, that Zuckuss and 4-LOM would outsell them by 2-1. I have no scientific data to back that up except for poles on these here forums. The people who pay the money to play this game know who 4-LOM and Zuckuss are, and they want them, the people who like Empty Nest probably don't play Star Wars tabletop RPGs.

I have a picture of the two Boba next to each other, but no place to post it. I guess I could go through and find all my posts with pictures and delete them. Anyway, Boba, at first, looks a lot bigger in legion, but if you compare parts, like helmet to helmet, or EE3 to EE3, the size is not quite as big, but it is bigger. Legion Boba has a full extended body where as IA Boba is hunched over.
