Oh if I'm playing Epic with these it'll literally just be maxed out on Gunboats and Bombers. Sure, it's a terrible idea, but it'll make grin just to look at it.

I am with you on that plan 3:)

Now just bring back the old dark background for the forum....

So, how many should I get?

3?

4?

5?

12?

i'm thinking 2. i can see these things being the new k-wing/jumpmaster if reload/adv slam/harpoons work the way we think it does but they either just aren't quite durable enough or just (and i mean just!) too pricey to spam loaded

Nah, it's the Starwing mate, more the merrier

I'm geting 3 for the cardboard, with another 3 Shapeways models currently in the paintshop to round out the fleet. Will have to figure out something for the dials.

I did consider that, but too much work, much rather just buy morrrrre

FFG needs to know that 90's EU does still sell well

Yeah, I was thinking 6 sounded like a good number.

Now FFG will witness the full firepower of Generation Y/early millennial's disposable income.

Oh god 4 Gunboats is going to be my new A-wings isn't it? I'm never going to be good again.

I'm getting four, and it will be the first time I buy more than one ship at release. I don't think we will use more than three in the regular 100/6 besides YOLO games, but a 4th will be mandatory for the anual Epic game

We can always rock a full squadron of them for Team Epic at the European Championships next year!

Maarek Steele is mandatory pilot of course.

So who is going to start the Missile Boat thread?

this also just in. Final wave for X-Wing. lol

Wait. Wut?

So happy. PC died 3 days ago. Just got all my parts in and came to this community after it was up and running.

My daughters and wife are looking at me. So happy. They can give the Empire ewok gliders next. I won't care.

Already called FLGS to get my request for 4 in.

Back in the days of the EU, the standard compliment of Gunboats for an ISD was 5.

So...get 5 if you want a full star destroyer's worth.

And...you know. Also get 36 TIE Fighters, 24 Interceptors, 12 Bombers and 8 Lambda shuttles.

Btw: couldn't care less if they did infact roll the missile boat into this as an upgrade.

Let's see, I haven't checked up on the forum in a while, I wonder what's new.

HOLY FAQING POODOO!!!!!!

They did it, they finally did it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

now I can die happy once I get my official Gunboaty goodness. 12 waves, 12 bleeping waves to get it. But it's real, it's happening! Surely it's a sign from above, everything is going to be ok! Right?

? (manly tears of joy)

All we have to do is not die in nuclear fire before it gets here.

So, given just what we can squint at...

Major Vynder (26)

-Veteran Instincts (1)

-XG-1 Assault Configuration (1)

-Advance SLAM (2)

-Flechette Cannon (2)

=32 points.

PS9 reactive movement while shooting (if the squinting at the second half of XG-1 is correct) and 3 agility unless blocked.

Well, first sign a certain businessman being elected.

second sign is FFG making GUNBOAT.

Third sign is the eclipse?

oh no, it's true! The end is near!

"Our"?? I'm just one idiot... and yes, indeed crying.
