  • Movie: The Empire Strikes Back. TV Show / Book: I don't think I've ever finished one. Game: Not sure if "favorite" but... Story Time! A, long, long time ago (the 90's) in a land far, far away (12-hour time zone difference), We used to play a StarWars card game as kids. It was one of the few games we could play at meetings, events, or camp because our scout master was a bit... much... Real anti-D&D/Magic the Gathering 'cause the whole "black magic is the devil's work" thing. Looking back, the guy had some personal demons of his own. If we ever said anything positive about Japan in a positive light like anime or manga we liked or even bring up Godzilla being "cool" he'd get visibly upset. In fairness, he was a WWII vet who served in the Pacific theater and... I dunno what buy something must have happened because it wasn't just simple hate. He'd go off but then start shaking, be on the verge of tears and one of the other adults would take him out of the room and tell us "Hey, you guys are cool, this isn't on you... but maube just avoid talking about that stuff when he's around". ... anyway, THAT was a tangent and neither here nor there. Back on topic. I don't remember which StarWars card game it was but you would play planets that you could tap for resources if you controlled them but had to have a ship card in play to travel between them. And of course you had the typical unit cards that you could equip with item cards. So it had that typical CCG gameplay but there was kind of like a star map that you built as you played that you had to travel around adding a kind of D&D exploration element. So many great memories. ... the StarWars thing, I mean.
