Well, for one his guns just look wierd, and he's not pointing them anywhere.

Though, remember I did say I really liked boba's sculpt, he's just no Iron man.

Would you hold your gun pointing directly at someone if you are about to be jet prepelled through the air? Once you go you would be pointing the gun at something else, not your target. Also, I like to think he is on top of like a roof pointing at Stormtroopers below.

Yes I would point, DUH.
No it wouldn't move, I'd hold it in place.
And he's not really pointing at anything.

Well, anyways, no matter what you think of the sculpts, combat dials pwn stat cards. In the face.

Another problem of SWM:

Too hard to get "into" the game.

I tried starting again and it's near impossible to get enought stuff for a good squad. CS's price has gone way too high.

Now, if I got offered a collection, or offered to play a game of SWM would I? Of COURSE I WOULD! I love star wars, and the game is still a great game. [It's just no 'clix, if I got offered a game of both, but could only play 1, it would be clix.]

It is the same way with clix. You cant buy 3 packs and expect to do good. Also, at our venue, we mostly play fun teams.

No if you hold it out at someone and you are propelled into the air the gun wont be pointing at the enemy anymore. it will be above it....

But, clix has totally hecka sweet starters, with three hundred point teams in them. The lastest SW Starter (more than a year ago), was thirty bucks for, like, six figures.

Not just the packs, and yeah, I've done it.

Just bought a starter or a couple packs and won tourneys with the contents.

ALMOST any clix can do good... you just need strategy.

Ahh yes cause I love having to look at the errata to see if all my figures's dials are correct. So far the only mistakes with SWM that I know of is the wrong picture on a stat card. (Anakin JK)

Same with SWM. There are no worthless SWM, all are usable in one way or another.

Dark Jedi Acolyte should have 2 Force, but doesn't. And, sure, you get some E Namors, but you get much better gameplay.

And order 66 on CS clones.






And I never, NEVER look at the erratta. No need to.

Yes and it was perfect for newbies. Had a rulebook, very well known figures, a hard map, a D20, counters, and I think a scenario book.

How was WoTC supposed to know that Lucas would do something like order 66 before RoTS was made???

Not really a good starting squad though. =/ But yeah it was a nice set, just not a starter one... (IMHO)

Newbies who are, like, made of moneys. It was thirty bucks for a crappy looking unique, a cool looking unique, and four common troopers. Sure it had a hard map, but that was the only positive distinguishing feature.

Um, ask. RotS only came out a few months after CS.

Yeah, gotta say I loved the hard map because it was hard.
