| 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.

 An inexpensive way for new players to try the game (and experienced players will at least know what they are getting up front) July 24, 2007
17 out of 17 found this review helpful
Even though all of the figures and maps in this starter set have been previously released in other sets, I still feel compelled to give it four stars for the following reasons. First, you know exactly what six figures you are getting (Obi-Wan Kenobi, Rebel Captain, Rebel Heavy Trooper, Darth Vader, Elite Stormtrooper, and Heavy Stormtrooper). And, while I would rather have had some new figures to play with, I very much appreciate the fact that you know exactly what you are getting up front. Further, if you happen to need one or more of these figures/maps, it's definitely worth buying this starter. Second, the Obi-Wan Kenobi figure was originally a very rare figure from the Rebel Storm set, and the Darth Vader figure was originally a very rare figure from the Revenge of the Sith set. Thus, until now these figures were harder to get and therefore fairly expensive. But, now you can get them both for one low price. Third, though one side of the map was previously released in the Revenge of the Sith Ultimate Missions book (the "Chancellor's Starship/Thrown Room Map" map), the other one was previously released only as a promo (the "Korriban - Valley of the Dark Lords" map). So while previously available, most people will likely not have one or both of these maps. Finally, the set includes a D20, latest rule book, and force/damage counters, so if this is the very first Star Wars minis item you are purchasing, you will still be able to have a fairly fun game right out of the box.
In sum, if you already have the figures and maps listed above, you will not need to buy this starter set. But, if you don't already have these figures or maps, it's definitely a very good buy for the price. Further, if you are new to the game and just want to give it a try, this is a very inexpensive and reasonable way to do so.

Can anyone make a card tamplate for the front and back of the new clone wars style?
Czerka/Poison Blade
Does the Czerka SA that grants twin not work when Poison Blade goes into effect?
Is This a Good Idea?
In my area, not too many people play. there are some people intrested, but they don't have many pieces so they can't justify paying the 6$ entry fee to play every week. i plan on making some pre-constructed squads for them that they can purchase from me. i'd be selling off most of the stuff i don't...
Why do we need sooo many Vaders?
I love the game and I think Wizards has done a fine job with the figures. Why do they keep remaking the same characters over and over? How many Vaders do we need? or Luke, Lando and Han? What about Ben Skywalker, Jaina Sword to the Jedi, Zekk, or Jagged Fel dark jedi hunter? There are soooooo many...
hey, any pro converters, can you make this guy?
i think he's from Episode 5 as i recall seeing him in the background of the anakin/padme romance scenes on the beach in Naboo. those crazy backwoods nabooite free-wheelin' hippies!
i'm not sure what base model we'd have to use in SWM to make him though... :D ...

My son is going to be a great Jedi Knight
A few months ago, I posted the picture of my 1 1/2 year-old son hugging a lightsaber at Target. So last night I was playing my brother in a game (see thread "Time for an Intervention") and my son came walking up and wanted to sit on my lap. He doesn't really talk yet, but I could see the glimmer...
Time for an Intervention
So, for the longest time, my brother has put together the some pretty bad squads. He usually rejects my advice (but not all) by saying that he has a different "playing style". (Sounds like denial to me ;) )
Anyhow, I've never given him a hard time about it because we play for fun. However, last...
Font issues
Does anyone know the font for the new style of cards.... it looks like they are still using Agency FB for the body text but the header font is new...any thoughts?
Rex + Jedi 100
Just got Rex and this is the first 100pt squad I came up with with him, comments are desired.
Captain Rex
R2-Astromech
Jedi Weapon Master
Rorrun Corrob
Wicket
100pts 5 activations, basic Jedi Interference style with Rex playing Boba Fett's old roll. Hopefully win an init and then activate some...
Thrawn's Ladies
I wanted to try the SC/Czerka combo :P

19 Ayy Vida
18 Moff Nyna Calixte
34 Storm Commando x2
13 Czerka Scientist
8 Mas Amedda
14 Aqualish Assassin x2
Nickname or anyone
Where could I find a list of force powers that are able to be used against the Yuuzong Vong? (OK to use against force immunity)
Could Darth Vader, SotJ use Lightsaber Throw 2?
I tried finding a list to help me out, but was unable to find anything. Please help. Thanks a lot.
Cade Skywalker? Amazingly Broken!
Well, when he first came out, and people used him with Doombot, he was a pain, but an expensive pain, and not a big threat. I'm sure in bigger games, he isn't a major factor. However, with his long removed female ancestor, Padme Amidala, Senator, he has a place to be one of the most broken pieces...
customs needed!
If somone could make a one of the customs listed below, I would pay or trade you for it.

Have you ever wondered if wotc recycles unused minis?
have you ever noticed that some minis seem to be in the (almost) exact same position? for example, darth revan and obi padawan are in the same position...what do you think? do you think if they recycle them (yeah!) or maybe they just used so many poses that they had to reuse some?
post your...
What's Up with BlooMilk's Search?
Anyone else having issues with the character search at BlooMilk? It seems to have changed recently and now when I enter a name I get... nothing.

Does this effect us in anyway or is WotC big enough?
