Looks good to me.
This may be the worst era of movies but it has some or the best stuff, especially where wargaming is concerned. Clones, Droids, Droidekas, Wookiee’s, not to mention all the different Jedi’s.
Looking forward to seeing the likes of Darth Maul and Jango Fett on the tabletop.
I dont think it is bad as a setting to game in, as opposed to the movies.
Agreed. It’s great material for gaming and leaves a lot of scope for the battles we didn’t see on screen.
I really enjoyed the Clone Wars animated series and it sounds like they will be taking some stuff from that as well. so im pretty excited
wow that table is stunning.
Not my Star Wars. I will stick with the Rebellion Era stuff and hope that we get some good stuff like Old Ben, alt sculpt Vader, a Han Solo that actually looks like Han, C3-PO and R2D2 etc.
Nope. I’m staying with the classic trilogy. Collecting 2 factions from a wargame is expensive enough. 😉
Who are you and what have you done with @sundancer?
This is his wallet speaking. SunDancer is not allowed outside at the moment. There are certain Kickstarters *cough*battletech*cough* that need to be kept away…. funds are frozen. 😉
I definitely have Clone Wars tabletop action in my future.Probably go with two Core Boxes to start off,building an alt-sculpt Grievous and gifting the second Obi-wan to a friend.That will leave plenty of troops to work into starter games and beyond.
Once they start putting out some clone war era walkers and other war machines I’ll be all over it. I love the trade federation and clone troopers, super tempting to buy as it is now.
oh yeah they have some pretty sweet tank like vehicles. will be very interesting to see what they come out with
wow, fantastic. I was waiting for long time
