NEW FACTION Confirmed!! Suck it Naysayers!! (J/K)

By Papamambo, in X-Wing

*begins chanting* Uglies! Uglies! UGLIES! UGLIES!!!

Side note, I'm so happy about all of the announcements today and very lucky that I have not bought more than one Z-95. Though that one Z has been serving me very well.

No no no nooooo! Such abominations those are!

Exactly! It goes great for the third faction.

*chanting continues*

The pic I saw of one in another topic looked as if it would break apart if it even fired its guns. No thank you, my mercs don't use shoddy junk such as that!

As long as the third faction stays a third faction I won't have any complaints but when a third faction starts becoming allies for the two existing ones I think things start going down hill at that point (6th and 7th edit 40k come to mind)

You know X-wing Unbound is right after WAVE:8 The Uglies

So a lot of you are asking for huge Imperial ships. Anyone considered the possibility of huge Scum ships? Perhaps Bossk's YV-666 or Talon Karrde's Wild Karrde could be in development....

I certainly argued against a third faction. Not that I didn't think it was possible, but that it's risky. Turns out they did go ahead and make one, so now I'm worried about the direction of the game. Mixed-faction ships and conversion kits sounds a lot like 'diluted faction uniqueness'.

Want to fly TIEs alongside Y-Wings? Just use Scum & Villainy. Want a Firespray with Z-95 miniswarm? Scum & Villainy. Etc. Each one of those ships announced could have been put into either Empire or Rebels with little incident. Let's see what the game looks like a year from now.

.... Did anyone else notice the Star Viper expansion is $19.95? And Need for LightSpeed: Most Wanted was $35.95?

Why must they leave me wallet empty?

So, looking at the Pics, for fighter escorts I see X's, Y's, A's, and B's for the Rebels, and Ties, Bombers, Advanced, and Interceptors..

I like the look of the Assault Frigate. Looks menacing. Maybe we'll still realize my dream of an Eclipse just yet!

The StarViper looks like a LOT of plastic (and complex molding) for a small ship. The Most Wanted pack comes with Y-Wing, 2 Z-95s and the conversion kits for Firespray & HWK, so the price point seems pretty good for the one too.

Huh, the Star Viper looks bigger than the IG-2000, but it's on the small base and the 2000 is on the large base...

Most Wanted is $39.95, actually. Sorry (for your wallet) =P

$39.95, is still an incredible deal. The Imperial and Rebel Aces is running between $29 and $32 where I live, so for an extra $8-10 I get another ship?? Not bad at all. And with rules to convert existing ships, it gets even better..

The empire was known for big ships and maximum firepower. I personally think it's a travesty that the filthy scum have 2 yes 2! Huge ships and we still have none.

From what I am hearing there should be a good numbers of fighters and large ships to keep this new faction growing for at least a little while. Let the empire take it's main claim to fame.

I want to see lancers and the tie escort carrier from tie fighter.

I'm with Papamambo on this one. With three ships and cards to do cool new things with your old ships, it's a good deal!

LET'S ALL GO TO LOUD CITY AND CELEBRATE!!!

Were gonna have a good time tonight a celebration! This WOOKIEES FORREAL!!!

That being said everyone that mocked us players that wanted more factions, esp the ones making big lists of reasons why we will never get a new faction, should be hunted down and have hot peppers thrown at them.

I go with "Sick" over "Skik" cause

Sc=Morph the S and the C together.

Just seems to sound better to me.

Well now I'm just imagining the Scyks barfing everywhere.

I love loud city the serenity the morning after the party lets you appreciate life before the hang over hits.

Cant we throw sweets at the nay sayers instead, like love hearts to show we still care even as hard candy pelts them.

You're still never going to see a Zann Consortium faction.

They did but there is a server up by some enterprising individuals of a version before they ruined the game.

I have no clue as to the legality, but I know it exists.

They don't profit from it, and the code has been wroten by them, not "stolen". Or that's what they say.

Just in case somebody wants to try it out. It works pretty well, and it is quite well populated, normally around 1500-2000 people playing at the same time. Cantinas are filled ^^.

Sorry for the offtopic, but that game deserves that, and much more.

Yeah I never played galaxies but I had plenty of friends who liked it and were upset at how Sony changed things with no thought for the player bases wishes.

A real shame.

Excite!
More pretty models!

I thought I liked star wars alot. Scum and Villainy just makes me think of that Obi Wan quote. Is this group from the novels, the old mmo? Help a guy who saw the first movie in the theater in '77 make some sense of why I should be excited. Thanks in advance.
