In a hypothetical world, where you had to play against one or the other, which would you prefer playing.
Vong.....
Or.....
Reserves....

I hate to antagonize the hardy Vong fans out there, but I have never liked anything about the Vong in-Universe or game-wise, with the sole exception of the Yuuzhan Vong Paratrooper. WotC butchered the factions debut more than any other faction, and they play vastly differently than any other faction. I'm okay with both, but I'd much prefer Reserves - I don't have to do a research project to figure out what my opponent is going to do. That's not a slam on any designers or Vong players, by the way. Kudos to you guys for making the faction usable

I feel like I'm more likely to pay both of these squads hahaha.. But reserves were easy to beat on the best of days and now they are a joke so that's the obvious pick

So far 5 people would rather play against a Reserves squad than a Vong squad. And ZERO people would rather play against a Vong than a Reserves.
The people are speaking, we don't want Reserves banned. If anything, Vong need to be Banned! Lol, not my intentions on this at all, but its the point I am trying to make.

9-0 right now in current voting. Your choice FlyingArrow, if you want to give the Vong a vote go ahead and give them one.

But, honestly, if the choice were pre-errata Blastbugs or Jason's pre-Unkar Pong Krell squad I'd rather not play Star Wars Minis at all. I'd pick any other Vong squad over Pong. I'd pick any other Reserves squad over Blastbugs. If it were a normal Vong and normal Reserves squads, I'd rather play against a Reserves squad.

He seems to be the issue, like everyone else who likes reserves have been saying from the start. HE is the problem. Not reserves.

Correction to that man, vong got hit but reserves got utterly destroyed.

Vong got its first vote! SO far 90% of the people who are active on this site prefer reserves over Vong. Maybe we can start taking notice of this people?

10-2! Looks like we have 2 people who either hate Reserves, or love Vong.
BC will you guys take note of this when you do your rules changes?

Vong are still severely out voted. So, make sure we don't give Boosts to Vong anymore. The people have spoken!

I have never liked the Vong, nor will I ever like them! By the way, this is also how pretty much everyone here in my local area feels, aside from 1 guy, Lord Razzia. With this being said, ironically, I played Vong in a CA Regional a number of years back, and won. The guys here hated me for it. So in the interest in continuing to play with my friends, and not see them quit the game, we banned them in all friendly play here at our local lgs, lol! As I was reading the famous Dr Seuss book to my 2 small children, I was inspired by the story of Sam-I-Am! Green Eggs and VongI am Darth Maim. I am Darth Maim. Darth Maim-I-Am. That Darth Maim-I-Am! That Darth Maim-I-Am! I do not like them Darth Maim-I-Am! Do you like green eggs and Vong? I do not like them, Darth Maim-I-Am. I do not like green eggs and Vong. Would you like them here or there? I would not like them here or there. I would not like them anywhere. I do not like green eggs and Vong. I do not like them, Darth Maim-I-Am. Would you like them in a house? Would you like them with a mouse? I do not like them in a house. I do not like them with a mouse. I do not like them here or there. I do not like them anywhere. I do not like green eggs and Vong. I do not like them, Darth Maim-I-Am. I wonder where I voted in this poll

^^^ that is amazing. Our play group from a few years ago banned Vong as well. I would have been happy with them just having a few Fringe pieces here and there but not a whole faction.
Maybe we should do that haha. Take some of the better, more fun Vong pieces and make them fringe and have a little sub faction haha.

Voting is 5-13. I hope ALL designers and ALL BC members are taking note of what the community is saying.over 70% hate playing against Vong, so no matter how much you enjoy it, don't go loading them up. No one wants to see it. So far at a minimum 2 play groups have banned Vong from play in their area. And I am sure there are more that just haven't spoken up.
Sorry Juice, your in the minority here :)
