2007 Star Wars Miniatures Starship Battles Advertisement

Today, Fantasy Flight Games’ Star Wars: X-Wing miniatures game (find at Amazon.com*) is the way in which you can game our starship combat in the Star Wars universe. Pre-painted plastic minis, fast play, and a huge number of available starship minis contributes to the success of the game, and it is easy to forget that there was a pre-painted plastic starship game set in the Star Wars universe before the Star Wars: X-Wing miniatures game.

The above advertisement for the Wizards of the Coast Star Wars Miniatures Starship Battles game (find at Amazon.com*) promises lots of fun in a collectible minis game. I never played this. Did I miss out on something great?
