I'm not sure how many people still roam the halls of HoSS, but I wanted to talk to people who have played the X-Wing board game.
I'm working on a space combat game which is sort of a cross between another game I'm making (Hover Cars), Star Frontiers Star Hawks, and Heroscape. It uses hexes like Heroscape, with movement quicker and more life-like than X-Wing. And I've tried to keep the cards more simple like Heroscape--standard attacks and defense (using Heroscape dice) along with some special attacks and abilities.
I'm wondering if anyone is interested in trying it out.
All that is needed are:
1) a hex map (I use smaller hexes, but a flat Heroscape map would even work, although it would be pretty big)
2) space ships (I can send you my pre-supported files that I'm using to 3d print)
3) Heroscape dice
4) some simple counters (I use the cubes from Terraforming Mars)
5) print outs of my preliminary ship cards
I'm especially interested in X-Wing players trying it out.
My playtesting ship cards include X-Wing Fighters, Tie-Fighters, and several other Star Wars ships, but eventually I'll develop my own universe story and ships if I ever decide to publish it.
Let me know if you are interested.

I'm all for it. I actually have the set of the Shadow Collective, some Death Troopers, and some Shore Troopers waiting to be painted. They aren't likely to happen from within HoSS in the near future, but I would love to see them. Right now, we are still (slowly) working our way through Episode II/Clone Wars. We have a ton of stuff, but, unfortunately, many members have been pulled in different directions by real life. We've had some progress recently, though, so hopefully something in the next few weeks.
If you have some ideas, work them up and start a thread in the HoSS forum.
