No matter how big or how small, every card in your deck is important, and it is important to look at to each card to evaluate its pros and cons.  A card that may not often get that kind of attention is [infopopup tag=aw157].  While simple on the surface, it never hurts to break a card down to its core.

Fantasy Flight Games has had an astounding week for teases and news about Star Wars: Destiny.  Yesterday, we were treated to some new cards spoiled for us over at their website.  If you haven’t checked out the article, what are you waiting for?  If you just want a good look at the cards with a little bit of commentary, you can find them below! And let us know what you like the most! Continue reading “A Red Card Preview: Latest Spoiled Cards from FFG”

There have been a couple of these applications popping up recently, as people are starting to look for more resources to store and build their decks.  However, if you are looking for an all-in-one tool, SWDestinyDB is the answer you have been looking for.

Now, mind you, this tool is in BETA status, so it is still being tested and developed, but the developer fafranco82 (@morifinwe) has done an amazing job putting everything in this tool that you could possibly need.  This is MORE than a Deck Builder.

At the top menu, you have four simple options that give you access to everything you could need to support your game.  My decks, allowing you to view your personal and shared deck collection.  My collection, which allows you to keep your card and dice list online. Decklists, which allows you to view others who have shared their deck lists; and cards, the most robust and beautiful, searchable card list on the net.

When you open up your deck, this is the screen you get.  One quick glance, and you will see that all the features that you could possibly want are here at the tip of your fingers.  Your battle field and character cards are highlighted, with images of the cards (once available), and dice counts.  You have a full card list including which cards have dice, and then you get a breakdown of card types, visualization of costs, and even a card draw simulator.  You can add your own description, print a copy to take with you to share, and much more! (Note: This is not an actual deck concept, and I don’t think Han Solo and Admiral Akbar would get along too well.)

Search features let you break down by faction, card type, rarity, set, and even can limit based on your personal collection (if you have logged your collection in the “My collection” section of the tool).  For more advanced users, there are various advance search functions which can look at resource costs, die sides, and much more.

The tool is still a bit buggy, but the developer will take feedback and is constantly making adjustments to fix errors that are reported.  The more of us who use it and report the errors, the more useful this tool can be for the community going forward.

This is an amazing tool that every Star Wars: Destiny player needs to have in their arsenal.  Support the work at SWDestinyDB by using it and sharing it.  You can bet we will be doing the same!

Please note: as the warning on the site states, the tool is in BETA status, and it is possible saved data can be lost.

There has been an awakening… have you felt it?

Listen to Episode VII of The Chance Cube Podcast, to be released on Tuesday, October 25, 2016 at 5:00PM EDT, for an important announcement from us at The Chance Cube.

As we continue to learn more and more about this set, many have expressed how powerful certain cards and combos are, and are a bit concerned about the balance of the game.  However, we haven’t seen them all, and there are likely plenty of cards that will help turn the balance of the game, such as this one, Daring Escape (AW 126).
