We only have 8 ships now, while it is more than enough for the 36" square table I do want more. The ships are very nice and addicting.Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15428727065347379281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5802656816793750482.post-91541367304318797072015-05-29T18:32:21.606-07:002015-05-29T18:32:21.606-07:00I got the core set and wave I ships from X-Wing re...I got the core set and wave I ships from X-Wing recently. Partly because of the models that look really nice, and partly because of the rules: I think FFG did a good job of streamlining starfighter combat. I agree it's a pricey game, now I'm trying to convince myself that these seven ships I have are enough...Ricardo Nakamurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07646452040751892430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5802656816793750482.post-28223520853529507302015-05-28T06:21:50.762-07:002015-05-28T06:21:50.762-07:00Hi Hugh, X-Wing is very addicting and the models a...Hi Hugh, X-Wing is very addicting and the models are not cheap. An individual fighter retails for about $15 and the larger ships $30. Some people have talked of buying multiple game box sets because you get two TIE's and one X-wing for less than buying more individually. American Flagg is pretty obscure, I'd only read one issue back in the 80's but it stuck with me.Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15428727065347379281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5802656816793750482.post-12098705629401652632015-05-28T05:37:38.996-07:002015-05-28T05:37:38.996-07:00X-Wing seems to be very popular; I keep wondering ...X-Wing seems to be very popular; I keep wondering if I should try it...<br /><br />I've not heard of Flagg before.Colgar6https://www.blogger.com/profile/07636662295301222390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5802656816793750482.post-90236066230417553782015-05-27T05:47:45.370-07:002015-05-27T05:47:45.370-07:00Hi TB, I think I only ever read one American Flagg...Hi TB, I think I only ever read one American Flagg comic back when they first came out but it stuck with me. There are a lot of similarities with Dredd but some key differences. I just thought it might be an interesting project to try and model some of the characters.I just need to reacquaint myself with them.Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15428727065347379281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5802656816793750482.post-60027903610396023182015-05-26T20:50:56.568-07:002015-05-26T20:50:56.568-07:00American Flagg was a great series.
