r/5Parsecs

When encountering a Gap: Improvise Proxy or Stop and prep?

What do you prefer todo if you encounter in a 5x game a gap in your setup, like a missing enemy mini, wrong terrain or something similiar.

Do you stop and hobby the gap away first or do you improvise a solution or workaround to keep the momentum?

For me it depends also when it happens. Everything pre and post battle probably leads to a hobby stop. Bookkeeping is patient.

Everything during a battle leads normally to a proxy or workaround solution, as the battle table might need to be teared down over the long run.

5 Parsecs base or From coruscant to prep for X-com?

Odd Question...

I'm quite keen to try 5 parsecs as I have models I'm not using so much and am interested in playing system a bit to see if I like it befeore ordering any X-Com stuff.

I own the 5 parscecs base rulebook as pdf but also found the 5 parsecs from coruscant conversion.

I love star wars and have a decent amount of legion models - rebels, imps, droids, mandos. But I also own sci fi models from games like Infinity, defiance, Nemesis, Zombicide Invader (I think) amongst others.

Am I (and a friend) better off learning the basic game, or is it easy enough to learn the game with the star wars conversion? Because after playing Zero Company a co-op squad based star wars mini game is super appealing?

Five Leagues - Blightburners at The Ashen Cloister

Fun little interlude game before tackling the Curse of War camp and hopefully eliminating them as a threat. I like all the NPC's you can generate in the various activities. Thanks for looking!
