An RPG board game cross-over, no less (Imperial Assault)
To Be Announced Friday Afternoon: Westin Capitol III@12:00 <EOM>
Did they just announce a ground assault star wars game!??
Its a board game like Descent, not a miniature wargame like X-wing. But, I'm still excited. It's based on Descent, which is a blast if you're a roleplayer.
Imperial Assault!
Oh my giddy aunt.
My wallet can't repel licensing of that magnitude!
No Imperial Huge ships.
Surprising!
I suppose they subbed in "Armada" for the capital ship desire, or something.
No Imperial huge ship
:(
Descent with a Star Wars theme? Yes please!
However now I need some new shelves. With the speed that FFG is releasing new products I need much more space (assuming this will grow as big as my Descent collection)
Also where will I put up armada. This is really cruel, ISD, Victory and the MK 2 frigate... I want them all.
Wow, but still hoping for Imperial huge.

No Imp huge ships yet. You know that have them in the works.
I couldn't help myself.

Imperial Assault? Oh my god I am so ready.
I'm a little surprised at the lack of Imp huge ships as well.
There's still time for Imperial huge ships to make it under the old Christmas tree.

True... but isn't this their only panel?
OOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHH MMMMMMMMMMMMMMYYYYYYYYYYYYY GGGGGGGGGGGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHH THIRD FACTION! WONDERWAAGH WILL BE SO UPSET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have to admit, I'm a little sad about the lack of Imperial huge ships, but the Decimator actually fills that gap in my Imperial heart. It also makes more sense to shift the capital ships to a game like Armada. Don't take me wrong, an epic game with lots of capital ships would be cool, but how many of us can regularly dedicate the amount of money AND time to run one on a regular basis?
I think the decision to add a third faction will keep the game entertaining while also remaining accessible to all potential new players out there, but that's just my 2 cents.

It'll be the "Trophy" for this years world champ!
I don't think the panel is over yet. There is still time to drop a bomb....

That would truly be "epic".
I want the new firepsrays now.
WTF just happened?
The information is too sketchy and it's gonna be a bumpy ride for a few days, I'll check back when the dust has settled a bit.
The information is allright. What we do not know is the release dates, which are the important thing right now.
