You play the game on a 3x3ft playing surface, rather than a board per se, which is another clue as to the wargame aspect.

There are a whole slew of cardboard tokens as well, which do all sorts of stuff, along with cards for the ships, upgrades etc. The starter set features just three ships вЂ“ two TIE fighters and the eponymous X-Wing. For those like me, who dislike simple вЂњI have to kill all of your guys before you kill all of my guysвЂќ types of games, there are also rules for scenarios, but weвЂ™ll get to that shortly. Currently, players take the role of either the Empire or the Rebels, and duke it out in a space battle to the death (a third faction, Scum and Villainy, is set to release early next year). X-Wing is a tabletop wargame, and IвЂ™ve been surprised to see it talked of in the same breath as Warhammer and the like, but I suppose it is in a similar vein.

When I played those three games back in the day, they were played using the quick-start rules and used very little of the full game experience. IвЂ™ve talked about X-Wing on my blog previously, of course, such as when I took delivery of Wave Four, but almost all of my knowledge of this game is theoretical. While I have actually played this game, itвЂ™s coming up on 2 years since I last played it, and my total number of plays is actually only 3, so I feel like I qualify as a new player! So IвЂ™m gonna look at the rules, see how it plays, and talk about some first impressions and stuff like thatвЂ¦ So yeah! This HJC X-Wing Fighter Pilot Motorcycle Helmet is just $159.99 at Revzilla.Tuesday again вЂ“ itвЂ™s game day! Today here on, IвЂ™m trying something different again with my game day blogs, and taking a look at the X-Wing miniatures game from Fantasy Flight Games, but from a new player perspective. Whether you pilot a T-65 X-Wing starfighter or a little T-16 Skyhopper, you too can bullseye womp rats in your HJC IS-5 X-Wing Fighter Pilot Helmet - вЂњвЂ¦just like BeggarвЂ™s Canyon back home.вЂќ вЂњItвЂ™s not impossible! I used to bullseye womp rats in my T-16 back homeвЂ¦ theyвЂ™re not much bigger than two meters.вЂќ

вЂњThe reactor shaft is shielded, so youвЂ™ll have to use proton torpedoes!вЂќ An amber-tinted, anti-scratch sunshield deploys easily, allowing you to effortlessly switch your targeting computer on (or off, depending how much you trust the force). I donвЂ™t see anything! - and the Rebel Alliance Starfighter graphics will make you feel just like a member of Red Squadron- вЂњThereвЂ™s a heavy fire zone on this side. The lightweight polycarbonate composite shell will stabilize your rear deflectors as you head check for enemy fighters on the interstate - вЂњMy scopeвЂ™s negative. Lock S-Foils in attack position and accelerate to attack speed.вЂќ Channel your rebel spirit and relive the excitement of the battle of Yavin every time you throw a leg over your speeder bike in the HJC IS-5 X Wing Fighter Pilot Helmet. вЂњRed Wing, stay alert- we could run out of space real fast.
