I agree with Lief, it's about your 'flying ability'. I find it a bit like a dynamic chess game, with a bit of chance and prior thought. Love it.

I just want to disagree with FFG trying to turn it into a collectible card game.<br /><br />Sure, great combos can be devastating, if you get them off. It's far more important to learn how to maneuvre and use your ships correctly.<br /><br />World Championship 2012 was won by a list with 8 basic Tie Fighters.<br /><br />World Championship 2013 was won by a list with 2 X-wings and 2 B-wings, against 8 ties.<br /><br />Gencon 2014 was won, I believe, by Han Solo in Millenium Falcon (with support) against, yes, 8 ties.<br /><br />So combos can be great, but you need to know how to fly first. And I think that's exactly what FFG intends.Laffehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09125733864107467243noreply@blogger.com
