Niiiiiiiice... Cortosis Gauntlet could totally destroy most of the force users in the game... tee hee...
What exactly does the synergy and Imperial Knight abilities do?

 

Yep looks like I am going to have to get myself a Cade Skywalker......

 

Well Amber brought me home a pack of Bounty Hunters and I got a snowspeeder and another Boba! I might sell him to get Jango and IG-88.....

 

Anyone want to have a legacy of the force release party at my house next saturday evening?

 

Sure! I doubt I will have received my two cases in the mail by then, but I'll probably buy a couple packs on Friday. Maybe we should make it a tournament, winner gets a pack or two...

 

OK everyone chips in $3?

 

We could all chip in, or Brandon thought that maybe we could do an out-of-the-box tournament. For those who aren't familiar with this, it's when each of us brings or buys an UNOPENED pack or two to the place, open them, and use ONLY WHAT YOU GET IN THE PACK(S) to build a squad. Seeing as how some of us probably can't afford to do this, I don't know how much of an option this will be.

 

Thats kinda what I was thinking we used to call them either booster drafts or sealed deck tournaments.

It would prolly have to be 2 packs and 100 point squad out of 2 packs then winner gets an extra pack.

We would only need 4 players maybe David?

 

I'm interested. I know I haven't been on here much, but I would still like to play. I haven't played minis in aaages though. Actually, I haven't played since right after TFU came out. Zachary and I were thinking about getting a couple boosters when LotF comes out, but we're not getting cases this time. If we come we can also bring our trade box, which has some additions from TFU, so maybe we can get some trading action. I'll check back to see if this is happening...

 

Sweet that would make 5 which is good enough but better if we could get another! I would say a round robin tourny would be best and most fun but it also would take the longest with 6 people that would mean 5 games at approximately 1 hour each and we would need tome to build squads so about 6 hours which is actually about average for us!

 

OK so are we going to do this? We should contact a store to see if they could sell us a whole case and maybe get a discount!

 

Update: Heroes and Villains offered a discount on a case of 12, so Chris and I will pick that up, and we will do the sealed pack thing at approx. 4pm at Chris's house. PM/call him for directions. If you want to bring your own UN-OPENED packs, fine, but if not you can buy two from us for about $25-30 (not sure yet). THIS IS HAPPENING EVERYONE!!!

 

Mike, I got your message. Zachary and I are up for it, so there's 2 of us. Does that make 6? We can bring our own boosters so there will be enough for everyone, also.

Zachary wants to know what the winner gets.

 

Awesome. So there is:
Me
Chris
Lauren
Zach
Cat
Brandon
and maybe David (new guy from the meeting)

that would make 7 if David comes.

EDIT: OK, so Chris actually wants to make sure that NOBODY brings their own unopened packs, and just brings cash to buy the ones we got. Bring $30 if you can. Also, the prize for winning is going to be one extra pack (courtesy of H&V). But you already get something out of it, so no hard feelings when I win that pack...

And PLEASE BRING YOUR TRADES EVERYONE!!!

 

Well, I hate to say 'I told ya so', but, I won. What sucks, though, is that out of the 4 packs I ended up with for the weekend, I GOT 2 PAIRS OF THE SAME GUY: 2 KRAYTS AND 2 CANDEROUSES!!! Nonetheless, it was really fun, and I look forward to doing it again when Knights of the Old Republic set comes out.

 

It was fun we need to do it again!

 

OK, so I got my cases yesterday, and here is what I got:

Darth Caedus (keeping)
Darth Talon (keeping)
Emperor Roan Fel (keeping)
Marasiah Fel x2 (1 for trade, 1 keeping)
Jagged Fel x2 (1 traded, one keeping)
Canderous Ordo x2 (makes it 4 total) (1 traded, 2 for trade, 1 keeping)
Nomi Sunrider x2 (1 traded, 1 for trade)
Antares Draco x2 (1 traded, 1 keeping)
Leia, Jedi (traded)
Kyle Katarn, Jedi Battlemaster (traded)
Delilah Blue (keeping)
Shado Vao (traded)
Moff Morlish Veed (keeping)
Deena Shan x2 (1 traded, 1 for trade)
Luke Skywalker, Legacy of the Light Side x2 (1 traded, 1 for trade)
Darth Tyranus, Legacy of the Dark Side x2 (1 traded, 1 keeping)

And at least 3 of every C and UC in the set.

So, my new want list is as follows:

Lord Vader
Emperor Palpatine, Sith Lord
Cade Skywalker, Bounty Hunter
Darth Nihl
Darth Bane
Darth Nihilous
Darth Sidious
Darth Vader, Sith Lord
Ulic Qel-Droma
Lumiya, the Dark Lady
Luke Skywalker, Jedi Spirit
Boba Fett (mando)

I'm just amazed that I didn't get any more Krayts!

 

OK, there is now a brand new SWM website up. It's a lot like swshoebox, better in some ways, worse in others. Bloo Milk

 

I will trade you for Nomi Sunrider. We have a Luke Skywalker, Jedi Spirit, if you want to do a straight trade. Let me know!

 

I'll do it. I have some NASTY ideas for Force Spirits...

Also, I don't suppose you have a Lando, Hero of Tanaab, do you? No, I don't want a Dashing Scoundrel.
