What is Star Wars: X-Wing?

Star Wars: X-Wing is a starfighter miniatures game published by Fantasy Flight Games in 2012, now managed by Atomic Mass Games. Players field pre-painted 1/270-scale starfighters (X-Wings, TIEs, YT-1300s, Star Vipers) and secretly programme their manoeuvres each round on a numbered dial. Dials are revealed and executed simultaneously, followed by attack. Its intuitive dial-and-template system helped kick off the modern-miniature-wargame boom.
