Starship Battles commence!

[Ace of Spades]

And the Thursday previews begin with the two flagship miniatures of the set, Viscount and the Executor. Looking sharp. At 150 points, both pieces take up half of their respective squads, which is fitting.

The Executor looks...too small. I'm wondering how small the fighters are going to be to give right proportions.

I have to say though, that after thinking about it, I'm wondering why they didn't include neutral ships, to make it possible to get Slave I and any number of other ships (cloakshape fighters, etc) right. They didn't make Boba an Imperial in the general Miniatures game for a reason.

[Darth Ludis]

I was thinking that exact same thing. They say they will have Slave I but it's just not fair if the Dark side gets it. This doesn't seem to make anysense.

It's been a while since i've collected and played but looks like i'll have to start again.

Jsut in case anyone missed this (it was on the Wizards boards) the rules posted online are 15 pages from the main rule book which was at least three times this overall. It was just a taste. Also it looks liek there are a lot of special abilities that will make this game very interesting.

[Darth Ludis]

Yeah i read them. That's why I said it looked dang confusing. The rules are completely different.
