Post subject:  Greetings old friends, and enemies!
Some of you may remember me, while others may have forgot about me(perhaps for the better). I've been playing another miniature game for the better part of the year, but I am too much man for 1 game, so I am getting back into Star Wars minis.

I was wondering if there is anything I should know before I begin putting funds towards singles. I used to play Rebels, Old Republic, and Sith, the last set I was around for was Jedi Academy, so is there any new pieces from those factions I should put on the list?

Any help is appreciated, and to my old friends I look forward to catching up and perhaps even playing you on Vassal(does that still exist?)

Make sure you hit up the main page of Gamers and download our first V-set Destiny of the Force (under Gamers Downloads drop down menu). These are legal to play in any tournament.

Hi there, and welcome back to the game!

As for minis to possible invest in, here's what I recommend based on your preferred factions:

Cad Bane (Galaxy at War) $50+
R7 Astomech Droid (Galaxy at War)
Rodian Brute (Dark Times)
Jedi Healer (Masters of the Force)
Jedi Instructor (Masters of the Force)
Freedon Nadd (Masters of the Force)
Yoda, Force Spirit (Masters of the Force)

I won't go into the details of those figures, but each one of them brings good stuff to the game.

Sincerely,
Jester007

Actually, BH was the second shot for most of the ESB Bounty Hunters. Poor Zuckuss...

Awesome, I am glad OR got a nice boost. I am trying on another site to trade some of my extra Heroclix for those pieces, hopefully it works out.

Hey Ray! I'm pretty good man, just got out of my third semester of college, tearin' up the Heroclix scene(you know how I roll :P :P ) I can't wait to get my butt smacked around by you on vassal, that is until, I get my mojo back. :D



Though, I do have a question about the virtual sets, for instance I see Revan is on the picture on the new Revan card, does that mean I have to purchase the old Revan? Or can I just use any piece and say "this is Revan"?

You can use a piece of Playdough for Revan if you want to. We just put pictures of what we call "recommended models" to help give some uniformity to it for people who don't want to do customs, or don't have Playdough. :)


EDIT: And oh yeah, welcome back to the fold.

Do you think that would leave any grease type marks/stains/etc on unlaminated maps?

Welcome back. ;)
