Since there were no actual Empire ships in wave 9 (first order TIEs don't count as imperial) we can expect to see an ALL IMP wave for 10. Right?

Let's see, I guess that would be:

TIE Oppressor

TIE Hunter

TIE Avenger

Open a lemonade stand out front of FFG main HQ and scream like a dumb-ass...

Yeah, I have a habit of taking things a little too far lol

Better it is to go too far, than not to go far enough

(got to imagine a Yoda chuckle now)

Time to set off for Yavin. If anyone's in the area tomorrow, feel free to say hi. I'll be around the bottom tables somewhere.

But there ain't no gunboats below the tables... actually never mind. Keep dreaming! For us all.

To celebrate 150 pages of hot gunboat chat, I've finally gotten round to ordering the Thrustmaster flight stick I've had in my Amazon cart since buying TIE fighter on Steam a month ago.

Now to construct some sort of faux-simulator cockpit in front of the TV...

One hundred and fifty pages.

It doesn't so much instill amusement, as it does a quiet, reverential awe centered around the deep-seated love a sizable chunk of the community has for the ship.

Let us keep up the good fight, and be rewarded for our faith.

Well, if we're going to quote video games...

Ohoho wow. Now there's a solid reference.

Still waiting on an announcement for 6.

Happy 150th gunboat pageiversary! :D

It's also only 10 days till 2 year anniversary.

We'll probably be up to 175 pages by then as our frothing rage boils onto post after post.

At Yavin, waiting for Round One to start. This is nerdvana

Great speech to start the day from CP about how the game has grown from it's humble beginnings, and how that shows the loyalty of the fans and the camaraderie in the community.

He ain't wrong, either. Great game, great fans!

BTW, don't forget to vote for the Gunboat on the Custom Cards League!

To be honest, I don't see the appeal of the Gunboat. It looks too much like a Lambda with extra guns/missile launchers. I'd much rather have the Skipray Blastboat, as the aesthetics are completely new and different, and it has a lot of firepower. However, I do respect you guys who want it so much, and would like to see you get it.

Just give me my Blastboat at the same time!

Oh....Wave 10- the Boat wave!! Gunboat for Imps, Blastboat for Scum, um....something-boat for Rebs!

A lot of people who want the Gunboat (including me) played the TIE Fighter game for PC, and other than being a bit slow it was a monster in the games.

It does look like a lambda with guns...but it's a lambda with guns that can actually turn.
