Star Wars - A Nooo f***ing hope

Yeah pretty sure it is Kesh, if no one gets the red Star Wars breaker, then it'll bump up £20-£35ish worth of repeat value now and then. AS a pose to the poxy £2 repeat that it may show from time to time.

I went in for one today, but only because there had been so much talk and a certain area was reasonably fresh. Ended up just going for it and it started dropping after £22, costs £32 for a In The Pink for £35+£20, so a reasonable result, about as good as you can realistically expect from this machine.

thes aint like r2r and pp clones.
i took number runner on rainbow-riches (starwars clone) and it stepped once to a number 1 then said "NO" coz jp was there for next step.
you dont see that on r2r.

True, these can be real dirty on Number cruncher.
They'll happily stop on £3.

Rainbow Riches goes slightly faster towards the end on red give us a clue.
Also ? gives 'cash or bust' sometimes.

has anyone ever had star wars go over for more then 28 quid?

Eh? It's surely £35 minimum? How did you only get £28?

Not that I bother with these - too tedious now. The one that was near me has been replaced with something even worse - a R2R video. Cheers! lol

Yep £70 top is my best thus far. Usually around the £45 - £55 mark.

i wrote it went over for 28 quid,so all in all it went for 63 quid.the question is has anyone had a bigger feature then that?

bit crap really,if you get top feature on gold rush or clones on red atleast they go in 35 quids,not silly amounts.winds me up when starwars goes over for something silly like 8 quid,whats the point.i have had back to back tops before.well the second one was off a superskillstop.rare

I know what you mean, I suppose with Reds/GM red tops doing proper £35 increments you get used to it but to be fair I don't think Star wars has got such a big suck pot to cover a £105 streak.
For instance what's the worst you've been into 1?? mines about £65 for a flat £35 but that was in an arcade. Pubs have rarley taken more than £35 to force the top.

Yeah they tend to be a bit nasty after a certain point in the gameplay. It's pretty obvious what, but I won't say it here as you know how the manufacturers love to chip up anything bar LooTing methods.

Needless to say you get a lovely £18 for a board, ten zillion gambles for the first mask, weedle out your £2.50 type board. £15 loss. Usually going in for the surf (breakers) will leave you about the same amount out of pocket.

It's about freshness of locations isn't it?

Don't test the water simple.
A) don't play it
B) force it but don't no matter what play for another board. All your profit will be gone. These just don't run, well you might get 1 out of maybe 1,000 forces so just not worth it.

Force, collect, lets move.

Wouldn't say they rarely cost more than 35 to force, often £45-60, especialy on rainbow riches, and yes I mean for the feature not natural.

Seen £90 for £35 a few times in services, awful things to play in services these.

Top goes for either £35, £45, £50 or £55 in general, those that are on 70% tend to do more £35's, the ones on 78%+ its pot luck.

Poor machine really, as most often you end up evens on it, or a small loss or gain.

Had too many flats on these and as ob has said been break even the majority of the time!
