X Wing Minatures
on: June 14, 2015, 04:41:27 PM
If you are into the Star Wars and have any interest in games like I know a lot of us here do. Do yourself a favor, go out and buy a game called X Wing Minatures.

It is only about 30 dollars and tons of fun. Rules are not hard to learn and the ship's come pre painted. Although I make no guarantees about how many more ship's you will end up buying but even they are not to expensive.

I picked it up a few days ago and am hooked. Never had so much fun pushing plastics around a table.

Much like the old days of D&D I'm pretty certain I'd be much more interested in the miniatures than the game!

I'm also keen on the miniatures more than the game itself. I've almost bought the Slave 1 expansion several times as it would be a really nice addition to my 'Fett related collection.
The difficult we do immediately, the impossible takes a little longer.

There's a Correlian Corvette mini for this game at my Friendly Local Game Shop that I have been eyeing for some time.

Alas... I haz the broke.

I can't remember what it's called but i'm certain i've played what amounts to the same game except with WWI fighter planes.  Very addictive it was as well.
