Hmmm... I had not thought about that. I think I'll try it at first without the snipers then.

It shouldn't be too big of a deal since Luke has to cross the map to get there and Obi-Wan doesn't have range. The Tuskens can easily swarm them. The problem with the trials I did for the old version was when the Tuskens hit a 9 man turn they killed Luke or Obi or both and it was game over. The Snipers were there to fire attacks from afar and give a chance for Luke's Daring escape and C-3s Insignificant.

I may add the Snipers back in later if necessary, but for now let's move forward without them.

Re: The Design of Ben Kenobi's Den

Oh, I see now. Luke & Obi Wan start at opposite sides of the map with the Raiders in between them. I just looked over the map & armies without really looking too closely at the set up. That looks pretty challenging. Maybe only start with a couple of squads on the sand spaces and then additional Raiders (w/AZ?) can show up along one edge after a few rounds.

I was thinking about something like that too. For example start the game with only 1-2 squads of tusken raiders. Then add more as if it was reinforcements, for the next rounds.

I like that idea. That way the Heroes have a chance to weaken their numbers before the get 9 Tuskens. That also gives the Heroes a chance to reach the safety of Kenobi's Den before more arrive. I'll update the OP with this change later. If someone would like to type it up with official-sounding wording I can copy and paste it, or you can suffer through my unofficial-sounding first draft.

Re: The Design of Ben Kenobi's Den

First, rough drafts are fine for now since things might change more as we go along. Once things looks a little more settled we can start polishing things up a bit.

Re: The Design of Ben Kenobi's Den

We could fast-forward the Snipers and release them with this scenario

That's not a bad idea. I'm not even sure what booster they would logically fit in with otherwise.

All right. We can test with both and see how it goes. Maybe for reinforcements you can call in 2x Raiders or 1x Snipers
The Raiders will start on the sand since in the movie Luke was hit with a club.

Re: The Design of Ben Kenobi's Den

Just a FYI, it's better to post a VS file at this point in the design process. It makes it much easier for the other map makers to see how many tiles you have left over and suggest little tweaks to the tile layout. Right now if I wanted to move a few hexes around and post that for you to look at, I would have to create my own VS file from scratch.

How does the cave door frame hold up when built in real life? I know using the 5 hex bridge piece from the RttFF set would make it much more solid but adding in that set just for the one piece seems silly. I'm just not sure how well it stays in place as is.

It holds up fine. It's not such a big deal either since nothing will be on top of it. For the VS file how would I go about sharing it?

Re: The Design of Ben Kenobi's Den

I use mediafire. Upload the file there, post the link here, then we can download it and open it up as long as we have VS on our computer.

Is that not what is linked in the OP?
EDIT: I think the OP just has the PDF. Adding the VS file now.
EDIT: Here it is. I added it to the OP too.
