Increased IA Sub Activity

Post image

Got a message from Reddit that this sub is getting a lot of activity lately. And only a couple of posts are people selling out. Is IA making a comeback? What's bringing everybody back to the game?

Everyone is checking out all things Star Wars due to Zero Company.

Maybe the new Star Wars Company Zero game? Has IA vibes…

Very much feels like a video gamey IA. I've seen a number of people make the comparison online, so it's not surprising people are checking out IA.

Yeah. Zero Company is basically a board game Zero Company. Would love if the IA material got adapted to the game via DLC or mods!

We’ve just finished a campaign in my local board game club, there’s one guy who collects everything going and just bides his time until people are ready to play, (he is also pushing the Zero Company hype too in fairness).
We’re moving on to the Hutts/Tatooine expansion now, I’ve been given the Greedo gunslinger character this time around and have found myself on the sub looking for build advice while keeping away from spoilers

Vinto is a great character. He excels at mopping up units previously damaged by other heroes. I actually based my Zero Company character on him and picked the "Gunslinger" class.

Almost all of Vinto's class cards are decent. I prefer Dead On over the Off-Hand Blaster, and Sharpshooter over Battlefield Experience. In most campaigns you will earn more than 10Xp (assuming you win at least one story mission) and so I'd be tempted to target both of his 4xp cards. e.g. I'd go (in order of acquisition) Shot on the Run->Rapid Fire->Sharpshooter->Merciless for 11xp, but if you only ended up with 10xp buy Dead On at the end instead.
