that decipher has stopped making those Star Wars colectible playing cards? Those were well fun, until my only opponent lost his super star destroyer card between the floorboards. oops! For some reason he doesn't want to play me anymore!

Yep, it's true. :(<P>I think they had some sort of fallout with Lucas. WEG or WOTC is taking over, I saw a card, and ugh. :mad:

Good riddance to that horribly complicated thing. I don't know about anyone else but I prefer a card game I can learn to play after reading the rules once.<P>As for the new one, I think it is quite fun, I just hope they make some Original Trilogy cards soon.

Ya, it's hard to play, but as I have no one to play it with, I don't care. ;)<P>I just like the cards, think that they look good.

Well, Hasbro is owned by Lucas, Hasbro also owns WotC<P>The biggest midwest gaming convention "GenCon" in milwaukee was hosted by Wizards of the coast. until Hasbro wanted to turn it into a trade show. A top VP in WotC quit, and then bought out the rights for GenCon to keep it a gaming convention<P>probly this is the fallout becasue of it. Also Lucasfilms probly wantsto promote their new CCG

I collect(ed) the decipher cards, I like that game. Star wars is not done justice with a simple game. That is for pokemon and such. The new game has dice rolling and tokens, what a joke. Decipher had a great game, but screwed up trying to make "simple" games like young jedi and jedi knights. I am refusing to buy the new stuff, and am trying to continue getting the older cards I need. :(

Ha ha! Super Star Destroyer? Pah! Just wait till I force feed you twenty B-Wings down your proverbial gullet! Mwah ha ha ha!<P>Me and my mate took the old rules and completely revamped them for a space-battle only game. Its ACE. :cool:
