I had a good couple of games of this with Damon today and it is growing on me!
For those who might be tempted there are a few shortcuts you can take if you do not want to buy a starter set but would rather start off and concentrate on one faction!
RULES..... You can down load them from the Heroclix official website in PDF and they are the exact copy of the one in the starter set! They also play very much like X WING.
RULERS and MOVEMENT TEMPLATES...... If you have a STAR WARS X WING starter set the movement templates are all compatible with the set from STAW except for the 6 forward but you can add a 5 and 1! Or borrow your opponent's!
DICE I did not look too hard at these but they have different symbols on them that do the same thing as SWXW, as long as each dice has the same set amount of symbols it should be easy to convert.
TOKENS....Both sets have shield, stress, target lock and action tokens so it should not be too hard again too convert!
E=BAY.....There are expansion ships going for basic prices (unlike when X Wing took off) and even some extra special stuff like Tournament limited edition Dice, accessories and expansion ships.. even Ferengi!
Or just buy the starter set cheapskates!
So there you are, don't say Macca didn't tell you so! (Winstonsmith!!)
And bagsies Romulan's.

Do they have a Borg faction? Any race that can produce 7 of 9 is fine with me!

Well technically they didn't produce 7 of 9 she was assimilated into the Borg and given that name, along with that sexy body hugging black outfit, slick blond hair, piercing blue eyes and that whole dominatrix look and attitude! I really cannot fathom what men see in her?

I was thinking more of their equality of opportunities for women! A race placing the needs of the many above the self seeking greed of individuals. I had not noticed the impossibly tight outfit that Jerry Ryan wore, her Germanic beauty or authoritarian manner!
