do you need to play in 6x3 epic size map or is it unpractical in a 3x3 maps?

I've found that it can work on either...but the bigger the map the more space you have to maneuver.

Typical play for this ship (and any epic ship) is a 6x3 surface. However there are missions (Cinematic Play) for this ship that use varied size play areas. 1 -3x3, 2 -3x4, 1 -3x5, and 2 -3x6. That said, Epic Tournament play, the play area is 6x3.

You can try to play on regular maps, but epic maps are especially recommended. It's base is about as long as 5 and a half regular bases, just for reference

It would be easiest to custom frame the map with trim from Home Depot (etc) after you affix the map to a wall. A frame this size is difficult to find.

To answer your question directly, no you don't have to use 2x6s in all installations. It depends on the surface you are mounting to etc. I mounted to a brick façade. It was easier for me to secure the 2x6 to the brick then it would have been to mount the brackets directly to the brick. This in turn gave me a plum surface to mount the brackets to. I had 2x6 lying around but I could have used 2x4 etc.

From what I can gather from the images for the 15th anniversary set I've seen, the hex tiles will fit (they are a bit smaller). The road segments on the board are designed to hold the standard 3rd edition and 4th edition roads - the oversized roads of the anniversary can easily be placed, but they are subject to "catan"-quakes should the board be moved. Also, I'm not sure if the settlements and cities will sit nicely at the corners since the wooden tiles are probably a bit thicker than the cardboard ones of the regular set. The other problem you may have - you will need to get the port pieces to place in the boarders - there is no place for the full size wooden tiles on the board itself. I'd say the official board is probably 75% compatible with the wooden set - you'll need to make some adjustments in order to play on it.

I just bought this and did 3M velcro on the back in a lot of spots. That way I do not puncture the map.

Well it depends how far are you shooting in my neck of the woods. 3x9 is fine. I like 3x9 I leave Lt on 3 while walking in just in case I jump something.On 3 I can focus quickly on a target . The only time I adjust higher is when sitting once I spot something or when target shooting. I normally target shoot 50- 200 yards with no problem with 3x9 either way its a wonderful scope you be happy.

2GB is a limitation with some maps. Try loading a 24K topo map of more than a few states and yer out of luck. I can fit WA and OR on a 2GB but trying to also load my CA or NV 24K's and they just won't fit.

I don't think it's absolutely necessary. My suggestion (as long as the map is already flattened) is to use this and let 3.5" hang out of each side. I guess you could cut two 3.5" pieces from the 12" to put on each side just to make it look consistent, but it will not be providing any support at all.

most of the time we end up playing it 3 players. we do enjoy it until somebody starts rolling 6s every time and we roll a high of 3 lol. but what i mean is there are 5 races to choose from, if you play with 3 people constantly 2 of those races will get left behind or if you beef up one race the other two players will make sure they are weakened. So yes it can be enjoyed by 3 people fully. Also the game rewards constant players. Meaning starting locations for you, and nobody else. etc

I would play the same way as you play with tiles, just there is no wall, perhaps just use the rest of the deck. Take out any cards that don't apply to American, just like you have to remove nonapplicable tiles from most tile sets. I taught myself American Mah Jongg from a book and use the cards to practice when I'm on a trip and don't feel like lugging the whole tile game with me. Never tried it with four people but I think if you improvise a bit it should work the same

no you don't unfortunately but once you learn the game and play long enough you'll learn the map. I've been playing since the medieval total series came out and own all the games along with their expansions, so feel free to ask any other questions ok bye jungo467

You wouldn't have to play epic style but you could easily make a epic group by adding in the best pilots, and upgrades and having the tantive set low in points(minimal weapons and pilot). Also epic is just 300 points (https://www.fantasyflightgames.com/ffg_content/x-wing/support/X-Wing-Epic-Tournament-Rules.pdf).

No way! I've played with up to 8 people which takes a while. The optimum number of players is 3-6 in my opinion.

It's a Three player minimum game. This is because of the three tracks of influence, which can have a very real impact on the game, and is where most of the fun comes from. If you modify the game to your own liking, and play it in a simple, "dominate the board" type of way, I can see it possible to play with only two, but a lot of the fun will be missed by doing so. There are a few you tube videos that go through gameplay, which will help you understand how the three player mode plays out.

No, unfortunately minimum is 3 players, and to be honest it's much more enjoyable with 6.
