I just recieved my copy of Mint Imperium and we tried our first duel. The game is rather complex and the manual is sadly not sufficient to explain how to play the game. Its still fun to plan your mission but in this game my hidden base was revealed in turn three. So it was a bit short. Whats your experience with it?

    I have it sitting on my kitchen table. I’ve punched and organized since it came, but I haven’t played yet.

    I’ve seen the complaint about the rules a couple times now. That it really assumes you’ve played Star Wars Rebellion, if you haven’t the rules aren’t quite thorough enough

        Well, I finally got it played. And it’s as advertised, a 45 minute version of Rebellion.

        I love rebellion, so my view is skewed. Mint Imperium definitely does the job of condensing the whole game down. I’m glad I have it. It will be traveling with me.

        But I would absolutely agree, if you haven’t played Rebellion, you might have a tough time with the rules. There are just some assumptions on what to do that are hard to convey in the little crib sheet that the rules come on.

        Rebels won by the way. I ended up with a 50/50 choice and choose incorrectly.
