| Star Wars Miniatures | The Star Wars Miniatures collection offers a great board game that doesn't require too much time or space to play. The miniatures are also exactly the right size for use with the Star Wars Roleplaying Game, which I would highly recommend. The old roleplaying system was made by West End Games, which I haven't tried.

Nice product; fun for Star Wars enthusiasts October 14, 2007 My nephew (10)was very excited to receive this SW product for his birthday (accompanied by the Bounty Hunters miniatures set, which contained a giant crab droid--pretty neat!). He prefers Star Wars Episodes I - III (ah, the misguided passions of youth!), so this was a big hit, plus his friends have it, so they can all play together.
Star Wars January 9, 2007 This Star Wars game is a lot of fun for my kids. They also sell booster packs for the game to get bigger guys. I also love that they come built and painted, unlike some other companies. Lots of imagination use too!
Better game than I thought it would be October 10, 2005 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
My sons and I love playing the Star Wars miniature game. This addition to the pantheon is good, especially in that it is based on one particular encounter (that of Kenobi vs. Grievous). This is also why it gets one less star, though, just because the other starter sets have all come with 10 figures and this one only has six. I recommend these games for parents because the game actually requires some strategy and planning (and they're fun!).
Fun Game...quick start rules easier than advanced rules May 31, 2005 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
You will definitely want to buy this starter game if you want to get into playing Star Wars minatures. It comes with "quick start" rules, which you can start playing after reading them. The advanced rule book is also included but I am still trying to master the quick start version, so I can't tell you anything about that. It comes with Obi-wan and General Grevious, which are only found in this starter set. We have played it several times now and are finally getting the hang of it, but you will want to get booster packs so that you can start building a better battle team because it is starting to get boring with only the figures that are included. You don't have to just get the Revenge of the Sith figures either...we got booster packs fromt he Rebellion era (Luke, Han, etc.) and added them with the light and dark side figures that are included in this starter set. If you like 2 player games of strategy, you will like this game. But think about getting booster packs to go along with it also, otherwise, you will find that it gets boring with just the figures included in the box. However, to get the basics down, just start with this starter set first, and then start thinking about building on.
Worth the money! May 31, 2005 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
Good place to start if you're just getting into using the miniatures. What could be better than pre-painted plastic miniatures for your Star Wars roleplaying neeeds? I highly recommend these to anyone playing the game or just into collecting Star Wars stuff. The detailing is better than anything I could achieve if I painted them. Open a box and get ready to play!

So I'm torn on... wether Mira is any good. At first I was glad I pulled her because I like bounty hunters, but I'm torn as to wether she's any good. What do you guys think?
Separatist Squad I don't know anyone who collects SWM but me. I have some squads I put together for an occational game with a friend. The last time (second) we played we played Separatists and Republic. As Separatist I got my hat handed to me. I'm trying to find a good squad but am having difficulty.

ok I have a custom Rules question. I have been thinking about making a custom Ponda Baba post Cantina. I was going to mod it and have his arm cut off and on the base of the model. Now the question is Is this a legal DCI custom?
Rakghoul Disease I just what to be sure.
The Save 11 is ONLY for the extra Damage, NOT for the mutation. Right?
So if I kill an ugnaught it will Automatically change into a Rakghoul.
Han STA & Garm's CE If Boba merc was in a squad with Garm and Han STA, can boba move 6 squares and still use double attack because of Garm's CE? Personally i think he can't but there is no harm in asking.
Doesn't general Wedge Antillies look like the fonz from happy days? We all know Mira is the hottie Bounty Hunter of the KOTOR set, but General Wedge Antillies is the fonz. New nickname General Fonz Antillies!
Reign of the Fetts (200 pts) Guess what, General Wedge found his way into another squad. I'm sure your all sick of seeing him. Without further ado, here is the 200 point lineup:
Boba Fett, Mercenary 58
Jango Fett, Bounty Hunter 56
Garm Bel Iblis 45
General Wedge Antilles 23
General Dodonna 9
Uggie Demo 3 x 3 = 9
Garm's...
Force Sense, one or all enemies? Hello I have a question
If you activate Force Sense does it affects all characters or only one character? what range?
Taris Map Over at theforce.net, there is a writeup on the seminar and a picture of the infamous Taris map for those who have not seen it. It was given out on the back of the KOTOR poster, but will see wider distribution in the forth coming league sets.

40-Figure Sets = 1 figure per preview? Because the set have been reduced to 40. Does this mean that we will only have 1 figure per preview?
Because 7 previews with 2 figures per is 14. Nearly half the set! Would WOTC give out nearly half their set in just their previews?
Gotal Mercenary So is true that if the Gotal Mercenary can make an attack from it's starting space, that it cannot use Intuition at the beginning of the round? I'm not 100% of this. Thanks in Advance.
New Player! Hey Fellow Jedi and Force Users alike! I have just started playing minis. I have collected them for along time for RPG but decided to play for the real game. Any hints and tips? I want to become the best just like I am in Magic! No one can beat me in magic, my boyfriend and I play it all the time...
Master/Apprentice tournament (Sith) Not sure if this has beendone before but I have constructed a list of notable sith masters and aprrentices that have minis and would like to see who you guys think is the best Master/Apprentice combo IN MINIS NOT STAR WARS CANNON
The rules are
-both minis must be on a dark side faction or fringe

Pack kharma at work.... I think it is safe to say that most of us here at the SWM forum believe in pack kharma. For those of you that dont know, it is essentially the belief that you will eventually pull something good from a pack when you have a streak of garbage pulls. It is what makes buying packs worthwhile when...

KOTOR pulls thread Bought 6 boosters today. Got:
Master Lucien Draay
Carth Onasi
Darth Sion
T3-M4
Captain Panaka
Bao-Dur
Not bad for only 6 boosters. What else did everyone get?
Cortosis Gauntlets With my terrible memory, I forgot the ruling and couldn't find any posts on it, so I have to ask. When does the -20 Damage take place when a character attacks? Can it deal 20 damage on a crit? Or is the character considered to have a Damage rating of 0?
Squeezing Can a huge character pass threw a wall (squeeze) when there is a wide area of 3 square ? Basicaly, can you squeeze when you could pass threw the wide opening ?
Holo Veers and the Gen Con experience Here is my report from what happened at Gencon.
I was the guy who played in the Masters with Holo Veers.
Thrawn
Mas
Holo Veers
Felucian ST Officer
Piett
2x uggs
Luck isn't on my side - KotOR Pulls So between GenCon, Borders, and 2 LGS/LCS I've bought/received 22 boosters. I've netted:
5 Zaynes
3 T3-M4
3 Han Solo, Smuggler
2 Wedges
2 Leias
So I'm definitely not happy about all the Zaynes. I swear, if I pull another in my upcoming cases I'm half tempted to melt/pitch/flush/launch...
