X-Wing is a tactical ship-to-ship combat game in which players take control of powerful rebel X-wings and nimble Imperial TIE Fighters, facing them against each other in fast-paced space combat. Featuring stunningly detailed and painted miniatures, X-Wing recreates Star Wars’ exciting space battles. Select your crew, plan your maneuvers, and complete your mission!
LEAGUE
Your Leader - Kyle McCreery
The goal of this league is to have fun, encourage more players to play, encourage creative list building and exploration, and provide a friendly outlet for community based discussion around topics which might never arise with a standard format.
An entry fee of $5.00 is for prize support.
Prizes
There will be one main winner who will get a specific prize (TBD), then 10 lesser winners, which will get a pick of their choice from the communal prize pool.
I want to put together a participation prize like an alternate art card (the community likes my idea of a double sided captain nym alternate art) or two specifically for the league, and potentially some token or range ruler sets from distributors online. I have been communicating with laser cutting services trying to get quotes for this but it looks like making them for small scale isn’t feasible. I will be 3d printing and painting a trophy, but it isn't going to be the absolutely nicest thing around, more of a gimmick trophy to show off.
