How to Play X-wing The Miniatures Game - Part 1 - The Basics

[@geoffreyclark5184]

Might be worth putting in the titles that these videos are for 2nd Edition as newbies might not realise there is a difference from 1st Edition. Good teaching video. Well done.

[@Rimmsolin]

Yeah that confused me!!

[@KingMakerRook]

This is an excellent series. Both my wife and I got into X-Wing when 2.0 made the meta less oppressive; this is helpful for us both. Looking forward to more.

[@forrest3491]

Hey, Nick. I’m a veteran to the game but still watched this through because I thoroughly enjoy how you explained it, and I’ve got a friend that this would be perfect to send to

[@MrLongfela]

Finally. This is a great idea for movie series . Keep them coming

[@adamm6417]

Well Done Nick! Looking forward to more videos like these. This helps big time, having visuals and examples along with the rules.

[@spittyrides]

I'm very late to the party, but as a brand new player to the game (2nd edition) I've just stumbled across your "How to..." series. Very well explained. Clear, and new player-friendly. Subscribing.

[@dindomoreno]

Fantastic! I'm using your video to get friends into the game. I've gotten two into it already. Good job!

[@HairyNick]

Thanks! :)

[@fozzykhf78]

Great vid mate, I’m just getting into X-wing with my Son so this was very helpful I really like that you demonstrate what is happening once you’ve talked about it.

[@rhysbevan429]

As a newish player, this tidied up some things I didn't know, so thanks for making it!

[@hellboyberry]

Thanks for making this Nick. A super useful video to send to my friends before the unfortunate souls get taught by myself.

[@jordanduguay]

This is exactly the video I was looking for! Thanks a bunch

[@hectorzeronee]

I don't know what's going on but I love it

[@rookieewookiee9725]

Wow great vid It has great content for new and old players, also for me personally the way you talk is really relaxing. 1 Hairy vid a day, keeps the stress away;-p

[@jacobgale4792]

Thank you so much for posting this! I play Star Wars armada, but when clone wars factions for xwing 2.0 were announced I figured I may want to try it out, this video was super helpful!

[@HairyNick]

Thanks! :)

[@SteveSpikes]

Brilliant work, Nick! As a Veteran X-wing player myself, I might want to show this, and future videos to friends who might be interested in playing X-wing. themselves.

[@corwinhyatt519]

Might also be a decent idea to watch them too since what they'll be going over will show clearly the changes between the two editions. :)

[@kensparks5651]

Awesome vid, Nick. Keep up the good work!

[@chunkycornbread4773]

RIP old xwing. You will be missed.

[@jackgibson7151]

This is going to be a great series! Thank you for doing these Nick!!!

[@IronShepherd5771]

Fantastic overview. So clear and simple. Will be subbing and checking out the other videos. As a new player, I appreciate the step by step and visual representation throughout.

[@HairyNick]

Thankyou. :)

[@sadnessinside123]

Thank you so much for all the work on this video. Really helps.

[@highonphotography]

Thank you for this series, it cleared up some questions I had while learning this game!!!

[@HairyNick]

Thanks! :)

[@corwinhyatt519]

"might not get allot out of these videos" Maybe, but they sure as heck make nice references and teaching aids to link to. :)

[@welcometonebalia]

Thank you for these videos, they'll be really useful for my X-Wing propaganda!

[@jmwashko]

Thank you so much for this series! Just getting into it and this is great!

[@comingvengeance2725]

Thanks for doing this! I'll be watching the next ones and I've already subscribed! Cheers!

[@_Bruzzi]

Thanks for the help, I just bought the 2.0 core set. Looking forward to trying it out.

[@italianstallion389]

Thank you for this, it was easy enough to follow to get the gist .

[@christopherlynch3314]

Nice job, looking forward to detailed discussions of each phase to include interesting and rare combination effects.

[@SnEaKyGiTau]

I may have missed it but when you are talking about flying over asteroids and debris clouds I don't think you mentioned you get no action, great vid btw!

[@JaZZyGee484]

Great video, very helpful!

[@mikeelarsen1964]

"This is where the fun begins" nice

[@BoardnAK]

Very thorough...thx!

[@adamseaton6781]

Well done mate

[@alkalinedivide]

Such a great video!! I have a hard time understanding the wording of the rules when they're written sometimes. Even when i ask a question online, and people try to explain it... although I appreciate the help, i usually return to my initial question ,but with more confusion. With all these updates, any chance you would do more videos? I see alot of questions in discord or the FFG community still

[@Mike-on1ic]

really appreciate these videos. thanks for the clarifications

[@HairyNick]

No worries Mike, thanks for the kind words. :)

[@georgeshergold4257]

Thanks or the video, was very helpful. Currently looking into getting the game and this was helpful on where to start.

[@HairyNick]

Thankyou. :)

[@dannyboy2525]

Great video looking forward to more

[@HairyNick]

Thank you. :)

[@MrGunnar177]

Sir did you ever finish the series? I can only find up to the setup phase?

[@mikeink100]

Very helpful, ty

[@mikeink100]

Just bought my first starter kit

[@xyphor317]

Thanks for this. New player and subscriber here.

[@HairyNick]

Thank you. :)

[@garrettharper6046]

Excellent video! I will be using this to teach new players how to play the game. I do have 1 question though, towards the end of the video Jek Porkins only gets 2 evade die while the tie fighter shoots through an asteroid, is he not counted as having cover?

[@garrettharper6046]

More specifically is he not counted as being obstructed by said asteroid.”?

[@DavidWilliams-fd5tr]

Q. I flew inferno Sq last week (with Soontir) and I caused one 'damage' but only to an X wings shields. Does this mean that the ship is 'Damaged'. I ask because Hask was next to shoot. Does his pilot ability come into play. "while you perform an attack against a damaged defender, roll 1 additional attack die." We decided that it did not as shields can be regenerated back to full health and no damaged cards were on the ship. I was a bit concerned that Husk ability was highly reduced but luckily he came good late game and won me the match. ps afterburners on adv tie's are pointless, my big mistake)

[@DavidWilliams-fd5tr]

ps great video please keep going

[@MrSkorm]

The rules reference says that a ship is considered "Damaged" if it has a face up or face down damage card on it. So missing shields isn't Damaged.

[@smileypirate]

Good video, thanks! Are you planning on releasing a video that looks more into the advanced bits of the game?

[@HairyNick]

Yes. :) I have just moved home (one of the reasons I took a break from this series) and am working on getting a good permanent setup for recording on the tabletop. Once I've done that I'll work through all of these.

[@smileypirate]

@@HairyNick Sweet! Looking forward to it. :)

[@Schenkmytro]

Where are the other video s on the phases and so on ? Helpfull vid

[@HairyNick]

They are coming. :) Need a sufficient gap in the schedule to get these done, they take much longer to produce than most of my content.

[@simonwillis1529]

Nice one need to relearn x wing 2.0

[@davidcottam6786]

hi is there a beater to avoid objeacts

[@marshallcrocker8239]

nice videos

[@Charris2007]

If my x-wing has movement and need to overlap with he tie fighter and the maneuver ruler ends after the fighter what is going on..?!

[@HairyNick]

If the movement template overlaps a ship, but the moving ship can be placed on the opposite end without touching the overlapped ship, then the maneuver is executed normally. Nothing is "bumped" and you can then execute your action as per usual.

[@crayon_fella263]

I want to start playing this game, but I have no one to play with :/

[@NNT]

is this 2.0 or 1.0?

[@simenbn5393]

What is hard and sticky? A stick!!😂😂🤣🤣🤣

[@furretthefuzzynoodle3896]

Simen Brox Nyvold it’s brown and sticky dude.....

[@davidcottam7967]

Hi want about closer to astroid

[@lyianx]

2:48 - Correction. A Ship is 'within' range 1 if the *entirety* of it is inside range 1. A ship is 'at' range 1, if any part of it, is in range 1. 16:32 - You don't "skip over the engagement phase". The ships still engage, they just cannot perform attacks.

[@sergeyzugzwang]

Вот бы по русски послушать..)

[@HairyNick]

Sorry, but I can only speak English. If I ever find a good Russian (or other language) tutorial I'll be sure to link it. :)
