Its also at NYNY. Played it a few times last week. Not that impressed with it. A few 20+ hits in bonus and 1 at 50+ on a line hit when I hit wilds on the 2-5th reels on the first game that transported to the 2nd. Very nice hit. Sorry no pic for it.

I'm sorry I don't know about availability of the game on the strip; but if you head to the outlying "locals" casinos in Las Vegas, you can find it at the Cannery and at Red Rock just to name two. It's a lot of fun to play.

Thanks Commanderbunbun.

I think I also heard it was available at Southpoint in Vegas?

ajhbrady,

I posted this a few weeks ago when I saw it: Update from wmsslots on youtube: "BATTLESTATIONS live unit update: slots are live in the Las Vegas Valley at Sunset Station, The Venetian Las Vegas, South Point Casino, Cannery Casino and Bill's Gamblin' Hall and Saloon as of 6/17! Enjoy!"

I also just saw a WMS tweet from this Wednesday that it also went live at the Rio in Las Vegas, so you have a few options to play it.

Good luck!

Cool, NYNY should be easy for me to access since I'm staying at Monte Carlo. It's also good that it's another MGM casino.

Thanks for posting!

Hi Raloda:

A few questions for you. What aspect of the game were you unimpressed with? Sounds like you had a nice hit on it ...?

Which games are you most impressed with right now? I would be interested in knowing what elements you feel make a great game!

My sisters and I played this at NYNY and it was somewhat of a letdown for me. It's really, really difficult to build more than one ship in the eight minutes between battle bonuses so the bonus round is over far too soon. The graphics were fun and hearing the actors' voices is great; so the geek in me was happy.

I understand that slot machines are built to reel players in and keep them spending money but I wish this game had been a little less obvious about it. I imagine the machines saying, "Stay! Spend your money to build ships for the bonus round! It will be a great battle!"

And then I end up with one ship that gets hit after one 50 credit shot.

Just got back from Vegas and found this game at several casinos. Played it at the M, and Golden Nugget. saw it at the Binions and at Red Rock. The bonuses were not to good, my best payout came from the "Wilds" feature... Where the first four rows became wild. Not sure if I like this one yet, but will probably play it again. I knew from the forum that I needed ships built before the bonus was triggered (so played as much as I could when the red alert started to flash). But when the machine isn't paying out, it's tough feeding the machine waiting for the bonus to trigger. I knew from the forum that I would loose my ships after the bonus, but i lost ships that were almost built too. I would like to keep my ships for at least 2 rounds. But the sounds and graphics are great, and I do like the transferring wilds feature.
