    The X-Wing game is amazing, but I mainly wanted to comment on the super high quality of this tutorial video. Seriously, in addition to being clear and easy to understand, the production value is great. I wish more games had tutorials like this.

    • @dblevins343
      @dblevins343 Před 4 lety +4

      @Brad true. It's perfect for someone like me who has to teach people how to play though. It gets us into the game a lot more quickly.

      Ditto, in this day and age, it should be an industry standard companion to the rule book

    • @electricfootballhero1349
      @electricfootballhero1349 Před rokem +1

      Agreed. After struggling with learning 2nd edition rules, I now understand the game far better after watching this decade-old 1st edition tutorial. Also, shout out to Gustav Holst for the background music.

  • @Swedonia
    @Swedonia Před 11 lety +33

    Hands down the best tutorial ever made for a boardgame. Easy to understand, calm, clear explanations and examples and perfect graphics. Keep this up, it will undoubtedly attract more players to give your games a go!

  • @gomcse

    This is probably the clearest, best game tutorial ever published anywhere.

      @Ahzafera Před 4 lety +1

      Not quite the same thing, but we had a teacher and group of students who supported a League of Legends club, but the new principal everyone hated shot it down because the ESRB rating mentioned alcohol.

    My 12 year old grandson loves this game. I've been playing a bit with him and it is fun. Came here to youtube so I can learn some of the nuances more quickly. ... For those who think this game is complicated, compare it with Warhammer 40K. This one is a piece of cake.

    • @ablondal
      @ablondal Před 9 lety +27

      @FantasyFlightGames1  Před 7 lety +14

      Hey Mark. Send our Customer Service an email (link below) and they should be able to answer that question. I know if you take the pdf of the rules from the web page to a print store (office equipment store... i can't specify a company name), they should be able to print the rules on 11x17 paper.

  • @FaustSketcher
    @FaustSketcher Před 8 lety +46

    This game is so Great, bought it a couple days ago and was playing it for the first time yesterday, over a friend's house. Most fun i had in months, me and my friends were just euphoric playing it haha. Really fast paced too, immersive and the dogfighting aspect (not being able to just stop and continue shooting at each other, forcing you to keep moving) makes the combat a true rush, even with just the initial 3 ships. Add the friking asteroids and/or other obstacles, and the advanced aspects such as upgrade cards and how everything (tokens, stress etc..) factors in, its just an amazing and immersive game and really thrilling if you get invested into whats going on with your friends haha

    • @Cplblue
      @Cplblue Před 8 lety

      +FaustSketcher The latest TFA trailer just has me hyped. I've been interested in this game but never pulled the trigger with my wallet. Happened to find the new TFA starter set at Target and nabbed it. Can't wait to try it out with friends...and expand my ship collection ._.

    • @FaustSketcher
      @FaustSketcher Před 8 lety

      +Cplblue ah, i havent checked it, im usually fine with teasers but never liked how trailers explain too much on the movies, specially in recent years haha but glad to hear. I already went to buy a couple expansions 2 days ago, and opened them this morning (rebel aces and an a-wing). Its such a great game haha My friend is also jumping into it on his bday on teh 31st, and the rest of friends that played it along the weekend loved it so much they keep saying we should play it again haha Good luck on your side, hope you enjoy it as much as we did

    • @Cplblue
      @Cplblue Před 8 lety +1

      Aye, good luck as well

    • @FaustSketcher
      @FaustSketcher Před 8 lety

      +Cplblue haha thanks for the suggestion. Still I think i will hold on to watching it if i can, the more the surprise for the day it airs haha

    • @seanmacuaiteir437
      @seanmacuaiteir437 Před 8 lety

      +Cplblue well it kind of reveals how long characters are going to live. With such a large cast some characters I expect will be killed. I know that Han is going to survive scene X because I know he's in Y.

    @datalore1757 Před rokem +3

    They just released the Death Star miniature
    It’s super massive about the size of a dining room table.
    What’s more it opens up and can store your entire collection inside of it. Weird that they only gave it 6 shield tokens and 6 attack dice.

  • @CyberBullard
    @CyberBullard Před 5 lety

    I have been looking all over for a quick and easy explanation and this video is by far the best! Awesome quality and great voice over. I have been playing regularly now and already looking up new ships and even down the road a bit, participating in our local tournament.

    @jasoncurtis3337 Před 7 lety

  • @civicsilly
    @civicsilly Před 10 lety +1

    I agree Nic, if any1 has every played 40k they would realize wat kind of a value this game really is. Try buying 30 dollars worth of miniatures in that game and see how far you can go in playing a match. Not even to mention they come unassembled and unpainted. You cant even buy rulebooks for 40k for less than 100$. Anyone complaining about fantasy flights cost needs to remove their head from thine posterior. Cheers fantasy flight, thank you for bringing affordable joy back to my table top!

    @7graywolf7 Před 11 lety +1

    I just picked this up today after a conversation with the shop owner over how BS the warhammer prices are. We were talking about how nobody ever wants to buy and play the X-Wing table tops he has in stock, so I took a look and next thing you know we're fighting over who gets to be the Empire. We screwed up the rules so much, so when I go back tomorrow I'll have to show him this video, which does a much better job than the booklet does.

Also if we like it a lot can the game expand to accommodate more than two players?

    A question. When doing a barrel roll do you put the movement 1 at the front of the base or back of the base. The front of the base to the back of the base, causing the ship to move forward. The back of the base to the front of the base causing the ship to move backwards. Which is it?

      Hello. In the 1st edition of the game (which is what this tutorial is for) you can choose to move your ship slightly forward or slightly backward. The 2nd edition of the game had a different rule where you place based on the line on the movement template.

    I'm just starting out and got the core set I was just wondering we can't mix up first order ships with imperial ships can we? if not are there more ships coming out for the first order?

      Hello Dylan. You can mix Imperials with First Order. You just can't mix Rebels with Imperials.

    Sorry, completely new to this game and can't wait to play. Luke has the R-2 card which gives him an extra agility, does that mean Luke gets one more evade dice? Not sure I understand how that works. Thanks!

      I know you posted this a year ago, but I'm just here to say. It does mean he gets an extra evae die!

    Question to FFG about bumping. Why doesn't bump give a damage to the one who bumps? In the gamecubegame Rouge Squadron, if you bump a ship you will loose a lot of shield or die instantly.

      I never thought of it as 'bumping'. I thought it was a case of them getting too close and having to either go over or under each other (in 3D space) - hence why they can't target each other.

    Question: Does it have to be played Empire vs. Rebels? So you have to essentially build two forces or something? Otherwise this seems OK.

    • @FantasyFlightGames1

      Hello. No! You can play Empire v Empire or Rebels v Rebels or Scum v Scum if you like. You can even mix and match the eras pitting Episode 4 ships up against Episode 1 ships.
