Pick-Up Post: Star Wars X-Wing Millenium Falcon and Slave 1 Expansions
One of the biggest draws to Star Wars: X-Wing Miniatures is the fact that it allows players to partake in an epic dogfight with ships from the Star Wars universe. The big caveat is that most of those ships are sold separately and the cost for creating fleets adds up quickly. After picking up the core set, I only bought one additional X-Wing so that our group could play 4-player games. The game made such a good first impression that I decided to fill out my fleets a bit more with two of the coolest ships in the galaxy.
Star Wars: X-Wing Miniatures Core Set Review

Star Wars: X-Wing Miniatures Core Set puts you in the cockpits of some of the most iconic ships in the galaxy. Whether you’re piloting an X-Wing or a TIE Fighter, you’ll be whizzing around in space, blasting enemy ships while evading oncoming attacks. Looking a a full setup of the game with a number of separately sold expansion ships is a sight to behold, but you’re only getting three ships in the base set. Is a three ship battle still one worth fighting?

The Value Proposition of Star Wars: X-Wing Miniatures Game

Star Wars: X-Wing Miniatures Game looks awesome. Based on the video tutorials and reviews I’ve seen, it appears to do an amazing job of translating the Star Wars brand of space battles to the tabletop. In particular, I think that the mechanics that dictates movement is genius and a perfect fit for the types of ships you’re commanding. I really would like to pick this one up, but the value proposition of the base set makes it hard to pull the trigger.
