Star Wars Miniatures Ultimate Missions: Rebel Storm: A Star Wars Miniatures Game Product (Star Wars Miniatures Product) Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)A first look at the book and it's pretty spectacular; you've got full color, new art, and nearly 100 pages of missions. There's a full color map and a tile with terrain pieces, which is unfortunately the most useful item in the book.
My main complaint has nothing to do with play testing, proofreading, or editing about which many people have already complained. The problem that I have is that the missions are uninspiring. I don't really have a desire to sit down and play through three-fourths of a book that just mimics the original Star Wars trilogy. The missions that are outside the scope of the movies hold a bit more interest, but in the end it just isn't enough.
The best part of the book (other than the appearance) is the random scenario generator that makes up only the last few pages of the book. The other plus is the map and tiles, of which I certainly have use in a role-playing game setting. (There have been some complaints on the message boards of game balance issues with the map, but I haven't played enough with the map to say that.)
I would have much rather had this product be a set of tiles, 3 or 4 new double sided maps, and a 16 page random scenario booklet.
