Dude - you got the broken set! lol

Command of the Galaxy was broken in terms of the whole game- in this format, and paired up with Galaxy at War, it's much less impressive. Daala's support is reduced to Needa, Snowtrooper Officer and Veteran Snowtrooper- and then she has to spend 50pts on Fringe characters from GaW. Blast bugs don't so well without any warriors. There are the Strafers in the subset, and a few other solid characters, but none of them have their usual support. Talon is probably left with the most, since he's got Cad Bane and Sugi. You could play an okay Cin Drallig/GenSky squad, but without Mas or Doombot it's not great.

I'm far more scared of IE and Shadows. Thrawn with Boba AFH, Mira, and a bunch of mice and swap fodder sounds pretty good.


Excellent points. In this format you are right.

To clarify, can Reserves and Reinforcements bring in characters from other sets? What about Versatility and Vehicle?

No. Treat it as if your entire collection consists of those 2 sets.

probably important to decide what (if any) rules tweaks and/or old rules we’ll be playing by.

Since it’s double elimination - 3/2/1 is moot, but cost of gambit, when games end, etc should be confirmed one way or another.

Also note that different rules were in play when different sets came out - so there is reason to consider this beyond just data collection for our latest discussions (although that’s never a bad thing).

We're about a day away from people being able to pick a second set. Anyone else want to jump in before that?

Didn't think that Thrawn would still be there. He is after all my favorite EU character.

However if no one takes REbel storm, I will be more than happy to take it tomorrow with a 3rd pick.

There are 3 sets left. In a few hours, players can sign up for a 3rd set if they like. Anyone else want to jump in before then?
