Vorpal Sword 14,685 Posted August 15, 2014 Zero interest in buying this, although I probably wouldn't turn up my nose if a friend had it for occasional play on a board game night. 1 UnfairBanana reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rakky Wistol 2,903 Posted August 15, 2014 depends on how good the minis are... might be useful... but if you're going third faction AND armada...and this? Too much good stuff... 1 UnfairBanana reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Norsehound 2,737 Posted August 15, 2014 This seems like an afterthought in the wake of Armada.... 2 Vimnock and UnfairBanana reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vanderbeam 87 Posted August 15, 2014 This could be so awesome. Imagine the sweet campaigns you could do: Armada -> X Wing -> Ground Assault 2 tiefanatic and Souladin reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Biophysical 15,515 Posted August 15, 2014 Looks like nice models, but seriously, between X-wing, Armada, and the rest of life, this just becomes so low on the priorty scale. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hobojebus 11,341 Posted August 15, 2014 Yeah I think wanting a more substantial ground based game on top of armarda and a third faction is unrealistic, next year though... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ArmaggedonPSA 19 Posted August 15, 2014 Looks lame tbh, but ill keep an eye on it. 2 Plainsman and UnfairBanana reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VanorDM 11,599 Posted August 15, 2014 This looks to be more like Decent:Star Wars, then a real ground based mini game. 1 Plainsman reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DailyRich 3,346 Posted August 15, 2014 The slide specifically mentions that it's inspired by Descent's rules. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
13713 132 Posted August 15, 2014 This looks to be more like Decent:Star Wars, then a real ground based mini game. And there is a problem with this how? Descent happens to be a brilliant game, and if you could somehow integrate this with Armada and X-Wing Campaigns would be brilliant! 1 Vanderbeam reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DragonWhimsy 170 Posted August 15, 2014 I don't t think this is meant for X-Wing players specifically, but for the Star Wars RPG crowd, or those who love Descent-style games. But it's still cool none-the-less. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KCDodger 10,596 Posted August 15, 2014 100% not interested!Unless it turns out to be very good. Looks cheap to buy though, so that's good. 1 UnfairBanana reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UnfairBanana 2,251 Posted August 15, 2014 (edited) This looks disappointing. I'd have rather had something on a hex-board than this...series of rooms or whatever... http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/edge_news.asp?eidn=4994 Not even painted minis. Erk.

Vanderbeam 87 Posted August 15, 2014 I'm fine with the minis being unpainted. I mean, honestly, worst case, you can paint them yourself. Also, if it keeps costs down that would be great. It's not easy keeping up with X wing on a college students budget, plus the fact that Armada is coming out and I need to get it so hard that it's not even funny, y'know? There's so much sick stuff coming out that I don't even know how I'm going to afford all that much less Ground Assault. but it needs to happen. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I completely understand that, being a jobless college student myself. But then I have to buy paints, which costs however much more too. And the game itself, if you read the article, just...doesn't seem so interesting to me. I'll save my limited funds for X-wing, and hopefully Armada if I can afford that.

VanorDM 11,599 Posted August 15, 2014 And there is a problem with this how? Didn't say anything was wrong with it. But a lot of people have been hoping to see FFG do a table top ground based SW game, something closer to 40k/Warmachine/Infinity/ect... Which this isn't. So nothing wrong with it, just not what some where hoping for. 1 UnfairBanana reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cody campbell 361 Posted August 15, 2014 Yeah, I'm unsure about this. Hex based or table based might have been better. Unfamiliar with descent, but could be promising. 1 gundamv reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
