Star Wars: X-Wing Miniatures Game
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Star Wars: X-Wing is a miniature war game designed by Jay Little and produced by Fantasy Flight Games that was released at Gen Con during August 17, 2012.[2][3] It features tactical ship-to-ship dogfighting between various types of starfighters set in the fictional Star Wars universe.[4] The game is said to be easy to learn and quick to play taking anywhere between 15 and 60 minutes from first set-up to battle's end. Each round both players give all their ships movement orders without knowing what their opponent is doing before resolving these orders while trying to shoot down enemy craft.[5] On May 1, 2018, FFG announced X-Wing Second Edition, to be released on September 13, 2018.[6] Although the physical models are transferable, an entire new set of rules, templates, and markers have been produced and are available through a new core set, waves, and conversion packs.
