There is also a "compensation"/"reward" for help play testing for games.
In the boardgame/wargame community, usually the playtester will be send a copy of the game when the game get published. Is that also true for WizKids? What I mean is, will there be any thing (booster packs or starter kit or maybe special miniatures) available for the play tester? Is the Ship to Ship combat game mentioned a collectible miniature game? --- Ken --- On Wed, Jun 16, 2010 at 1:36 PM, Dave D <[email protected]> wrote: > Hey guys, > > I was selected to be a play tester for an upcoming WizKids series of > games based on the Star Trek license. > > The official description of the two games is as follows: > "1: A Ship to Ship combat game - Pre-painted plastic minis where 2 > players play head to head.
