OK there have been a lot of discussion about what a virtual set in the fall may look like. Use this thread to voice who you would like to see in it. Could be an existing mini with a new stat card. Could be a new mini you have waiting to see.
I must say I really like what I am hearing from the community in regards to taking non-unique minis and making a unique stat card for them, since we all know a ton of non-uniques were based off unique characters.
Hello all! I think we can take a step as a community to get more involved in the development of this game. I hear a lot of talk from a few people on other sites that Gamers will have a few people deciding everything and the larger community will have to just deal with it. That’s just not true. If we members of the larger community want to get involved, we need to do it in a way efficient enough where the busy volunteers who will be doing much of the designing and event planning need not spend hours upon hours sifting through posts to find the input they want. Without specifically-made threads, there might be a thread that has some people saying a mini they want, others saying some stats they want to see, while still others say how something should be re-costed, all in a confusing (but interesting and valid in its own right) mess. We need to help the designers help us! That’s why I’m starting this thread, to see what minis YOU would like to see. This thread isn’t intended to discuss special abilities or new costs, or how the community will be involved in designing some pieces that they will have some input on.
It’s to see what mini’s you want to see. The likely course of action, as has been described in other threads, is:
1: to take an existing mini (example Luke Skywalker, Rebel)
2: Make an ALTERNATE card for it (with new abilities, stats, cost, etc.), so that the old card or the new card can be used, whichever the player want to use in their squad, much like picking between Luke Skywalker, Jedi, or Luke Skywalker, Hero of Yavin nowadays, for example.
This is the info I am going for:
10-15 minis (can be only 1 or 2 if you want, don’t feel like you need 10, more than 15 if you really have some ideas you'd like to get across)
For each one:
Name of a (preferably) Unique mini you would like an alternate card for.
OR:
Name of a non-unique mini that you would like to see made with a Unique alternate card (for example, Echani Handmaiden (Brianna)) Please list the Mini, and then next to it, have the unique you want to see.
It would be preferable to request that minis from the older sets get alternates, but I will still record the newer ones if you put them.
Don’t be afraid to put names that other people have already put; I will keep track of how many times each alternate is requested, so it will be easier to see how many want a certain piece with an alternate.
To make things more efficient, Please don’t
-Put stats (for another thread, another time)
-Name characters that you don’t have a mini to represent (for example, there is nothing we have that we could stretch to represent a Space Slug)
-Post anything other than your list of minis, if you can help it.
-Post a Unique mini that is currently competitive (Like R2-D2 from RS) (But a competitive Non-unique that you want to see into a Unique is cool)
Even if you only have 1 mini you want to have an alternate cost please post it! If we want the designers to see what we want, we need to make it as easy for them as possible.
If you could, please look at the next post for my list; the closer you format your list to mine the easier it will be for me. Thanks.
