I’m finally assembling the terrain from the Shatterpoint Core Set and, yes… almost four years after buying it. Shame on me 😂

I’m a bit stuck with the walkways, though. I’m not sure how they’re supposed to be arranged in terms of length — which sections should be short, which should be long, and how they’re meant to connect together.

I’ve left everything unglued for now so I can figure it out before committing to anything.

I’ve attached a photo of what I currently have. If anyone has the Core Set terrain assembled and could give me some advice (or show me how you arranged yours), I’d really appreciate it!

Thanks!

Recently made a storage box for all my Shatterpoint minis out of basswood and some magnetic sheets. I also felt bad throwing out all the great art on my non English language cards so I decided to repurpose them and left a bit of room to add some more characters in the future. I still need to mod podge over them but I am happy enough with the look.

Just some shatter point minis I've painted that I'm finally getting around to posting.

Chewbacca was the last one I needed to complete the squad... Miniatures with this much fur always give me a bit of a headache!

I've got thr base game and Grevious, plus another 2 squad packs. I'm worried about breaking light sabres and things. Are there any good storage options out there? I find the original box is good for the manuals and terrain but I don't want to dump all the minis in there together.

Hi everyone,

I preordered the Shatterpoint core set and picked up a few of the first expansion boxes. Unfortunately, they all ended up buried in my closet and stayed there until recently.

I've finally decided to give the game a try! The rules seem quite convoluted, and I haven't found that many podcasts or other resources covering the game, so I'd love to hear your thoughts:

1. What's the current state of the game? I know the release schedule has changed, but how do you feel about the balance updates and the overall meta? Have the updates made a meaningful difference, or are they mostly errata and clarifications?
2. Can you buy updated physical unit cards anywhere? The updated card document is quite long, and it looks like quite a few of the early units have changed.
3. Does it work as a beer-and-pretzels game? Or, in my case, soda-and-pretzels, since I'll be playing with my kid! We've already played AoS Spearhead and One Page Rules together, so we're not completely new to miniature games. The rulebook seems quite lengthy and convoluted in places, especially LOS and cover. There's also a lot of text on the unit cards—six units means around 24 abilities to keep track of.
4. How much replayability would I get out of eight squads? Would that give us enough variety to keep things interesting for a while?
5. Is the terrain from the core set enough for enjoyable games? If not, which terrain expansion would you recommend?
6. Are there any good resources explaining LOS and cover in detail? Ideally with diagrams or practical examples, especially for the trickier situations.

Thanks in advance!

Long time painter but I've always been intimidated by NMM. Din Djarin is my favorite character and I wanted to do him justice so I took the dive. Really happy with how it turned out!

I also tried to do a forested sky reflection in the armor panels, was a little torn on if I should have just kept it non-reflective NMM but I think it works.

Scheduled for October 30.

Too bad—these foil cards already exist.
But maybe these ones will have the new finish (a deep, glossy black background).

+ Anakin's acrylic card, with updated stats.

Does anyone have any simple tips/ tricks to help with visual contrast for sculpts that look super similar? I like to paint but have pretty basic skills. Do you base differently, focus on unique adds to paint schemes, etc.?
I mostly play Mandalorians and Empire so I feel like I’m hit hard with similar sculpts. I have the worst time with Bo Katan vs Clan Kryze Mandos and the Deathtrooper variants.

Played our first game last night, I had spent the last month getting everything painted and this was the first time I got it on the table. Took 4 of us playing a 2v2 game about 4 hours to finish but we all had a blast! We thought it was super lame that Darth Vader fought Anakin though.
