Star Wars Miniatures Community, the designers of V-set 12 want your feedback! Help us playtest V-set 12 (self-tests are welcomed) and your suggestions could make their way onto the finished pieces. Just send a PM to darkdracul on bloomilk.com or swmgamers.com ThumpUp

New Play-testers,
Send an Initial message and let me know:
#1. Your Preferred Factions
#2. Your Squad preference, if any (Rock, Paper, Scissors)

I will send you a piece from V-set 12 and do my best to meet your parameters if possible. After the designers read your report I’ll send you a couple more pieces to playtest. In some cases I may ask you to playtest in a certain way; with a specific piece, opponent, or map. Stay tuned as I will be offering some very cool prize support to our community playtesters. Please PM your play-test reports (answer the questions below) to darkdracul on bloomilk or swmgamers.

(1) List the VSET 12 mini(s) and stat block(s) used.

(2) List Squads:
(a) Your name and squad
(b) Your opponent's name and squad

(3) List restricted Map used:

(4) *** Analysis/Description of the game – Detailed accounting of the game ***

(5) Character usability
(a) Does the mini do what it’s intended to do?
(b) How did the character's abilities interact with each other?
(c) Did you understand how the SA/CE work after reading them just once? Were uncertain about anything?
(d) Did the abilities on the character(s) make sense? Was anything out of place thematically or as a game mechanism?
(e) Is the mini fun: would you consider using this piece? If not, why not?

(6) Power level
(a) Is the cost accurate?
(b) Is the piece competitive and/or casual? Explain your reasoning.
(c) Does this piece replace or outmode an existing piece? If so, which one(s)?

(7) Any other suggestions for the piece?

Things you can do to make a self test most valuable.

#1 Ask a question about the v-set piece and then design a playtest with that question in mind.

#2 Build a squad with intent to exploit (break) the v-set piece, don't just plug it into a squad.

#3 Choose a known squad (Talon, Mace, Daala,) that should challenge or be challenged by your squad.

#4 Choose a map with a specific purpose in mind. Should it favor the squad you've built or the opponents?

#5 Redo and run through important interactions and events more than once to discover the most typical outcome.

Self tests can be more beneficial than two guys tossing a playtest together. Don't let lack of a regular opponent prevent you from getting involved if you want to participate. You can still provide valuable information to the designers that will be appreciated.
