Up Front Kickstarter In It's Last 48 Hours

If you are like me and have been waiting for Up Front to be re-printed, make sure you get in on the Kickstarter campaign. The 48 hour count down has begun. This deal is rediculous. The base game and additional core nations alone is over 1300 cards. At the current stretch level, the number of cards you get is more than doubled. To get all the cards, a pledge of $125 USD is required (shipping included for US adresses).

The Kessel Run Event

Millennium Falcon and A-Wing

I was fortunate enough to participate in the FFG Kessel Run event hosted at my FLGS, Six Feet Under Games. And, despite my many mistakes I was lucky enough to walk away with the Millennium Falcon as my prize. I have been wanting to use and check out this piece ever since it was announced. The model is very nice and I am quite please I walked away with it.

The ship boasts of 5 shields and an 8 hull, but only 1 evade die (with Lando as pilot). In this configuration, it is a smart idea to use your actions each turn on an evade action.
