| 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.

Great background and story hooks. January 19, 2007
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Usually when you find a gem of a book like this one, it's valuable for one of two reasons. It either provides you with necessary stats for equipment, NPCs, vehicles, etc., or it provides well written backgrounds and galaxy information to use as a backdrop for your adventures. This is the latter. You will not find the biggest and the best equipment, but reading this book is bound to give gamemasters adventure material and ideas for story hooks. It covers the basics of corporate personalities, Rebels, Imperials, swoop gangs, mercenary groups and more. There isn't much that you can just transplant into a game, and there are no stand alone adventures in the book, but considering that you can often find the book for $7.00 or less (in used condition), there is no reason why a gamemaster shouldn't own the book.

Best maps for...
...3 and 4 players.
In my group we frequently play 3-way and 4-way battles just to get more games in the time we have. Some maps are just downright awful for 3 players while others it is more about who gets to pick side last that gets the squeeze. Just wondering if anyone has put some thought...

The meaning of "Meta"
This is one of the terms that gets thrown around on these boards without any definitive meaning. In its most common use, there are even different types of "metas" (local, national, competitive, event, etc). So here are a couple of posts that help to explain the difference and show how the meta...

What if they did special collector paint it yourself kits?
Not suggesting any change in the current lines here, but it was mentioned elsewhere by Insaniak that it would be cool to see resin or pewter one-offs. as in miniatures that you put together and paint yourself.
I reckon it would be very cool to see some of the all time great star wars miniatures...

Abbreviations and Common Terms?
Perhaps there's already a thread for this, but there are a few terms and abbreviations floating around here that I don't know what they mean. For instance, what is MTB? What constitutes a "cannon" or a "speedy cannon"? "Super Stealth"?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Using Garindan
I've seen Garindan make more than a few squad lists: how do you effectively use him without super stealth?
How many combined fires do you need to pull off to get your 12 points out of him?

Jarael and T3-M4.
Call me behind the times, but I picked up my first boosters of KotOR today and pulled these two, in addition to the Rebel Luke.
Without even getting a chance to play with them, I'm pretty sure Jarael and T3-M4 are my absolute favorite minis. Jarael is the embodiment of speed/killiness and T3......
