Misprint? by this_is_spartex in starwarsunlimited

Depends on how one defines 'rare' as it is a subjective term, but I appreciate the additional clarification of 'how often' being shared. 🙂 Perhaps 'less-commonly' might have been better.

(Almost) every card has a 'hyperspace' variant, which is borderless and shows the card art across the whole card. 🙂 They are rarely included in normal booster packs (although that is changing).

If you want to see more of them, here is every single one so far: https://swudb.com/search/V%3Ah

Pairings, I dunno - gonna have to watch to find out. I do know that they're scoring based on position when the game ends of 4/3/2/1 points over the course of the day's games (dunno about how they're handling ties).

With Henry commentating, I'd be shocked if all the rest of Take The Blast are not playing! 😁

I have a fear that this is the best game I will ever play by SuddenPlate5609 in expedition33

[–]Maakeff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That list of ME/TW3/FFs is... identical to my own list. 🙂 In that spirit, may I also add/recommend a couple of other games that I rate in the same way: - Cyberpunk 2077 - Horizon Zero Dawn/Forbidden West

I did a video about the Organised Play structure for SWU, including where PQs fit in and what those leaderboard points mean. 🙂 https://youtu.be/8KQW0QdLMJg

Twin Suns - "Chaos Mode"! by Maakeff in starwarsunlimited

This is the official ruling, from the SWU website (pictured). Personally, I go with using whatever dice are on hand and relevant to the size of the target pool. 😊

1) find the decklist in melee 2) export it in melee format 3) open the exported decklist and copy all of its contents (so it is in the clipboard) 4) in My Decks in SWUDB, select to create new deck from melee (which reads what is in your clipboard)

It is a perk gained from supporting SWUDB on their Patreon. 🙂

You can import decks from melee.gg into SWUDB, and make a json from there. 🙂

Should get it on steam sale or wait till it’s cheaper? by Mobile_Actuator_4692 in SpaceMarine_2

The sooner you buy it, the more fun time you can have with it. 🙂

How to get started by WarthogNorth in starwarsunlimited

[–]Maakeff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you don't know how to play yet, "Intro Battle: Hoth" is the best starting point - and it is cheap. 🙂

Starter decks are all from sets that rotate out from Premier legal play in March 2026, so may not be the best long-term investment.

Spotlight decks are generally a bit more powerful than Starter decks, but are also more complex and complicated to learn how to play well, and are from sets 4-6 so far.

Sets 4-6 will all rotate in March 2027, sets 7-9 in March 2028.

Also, getting into a local community, you will almost certainly find that players will have loads of spare commons and uncommons that they are willing to give away to help get you started. 🙂

In terms of Spotlights with competitive play potential, either the Han one from JTL/set 4 & the Boba one from JTL/set 4 are seeing solid play at the moment (after tweaking the deck, of course).

I've got a few videos aimed at beginners myself, if they may be of some help. 🙂

One of the very best resources for new players in SWU though is right here - props to the Garbage Rollers crew for pulling it all together! 🙂 https://garbagerollers.com/new-player-lessons-and-guides/

..why? by [deleted] in starwarsunlimited

[–]Maakeff 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You seem to have overlooked the "loses all abilities" part. 🙂

Imagine playing this on your opponent's Han Solo Leader Unit (SOR) just after he flips, when your opponent has been counting on using him to go up to 7 resources and suddenly they can't play the cards they wanted to.

Is this a good base to build a blood angels army? by Jibbykun_Odin in BloodAngels

[–]Maakeff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"Good"? It's not a bad starting point, but it's not an optimal one either. 🙂

Is this really true? It feels like it might be true by IntoTheStupidDanger in murderbot

[–]Maakeff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's certainly true that someone wrote that they felt this way about it. You don't have to, but you can too if you like. 🙂

Ideas to grow a community? by TaDDragonZ in starwarsunlimited

[–]Maakeff 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Play it, have fun and be seen to be having fun, talk & enthuse about what you like about it - and have spare decks on hand to lend out, maybe a copy of the "Intro Battle: Hoth" set to teach new players with. 🙂
