X-Wing EPIC is NOT ARMADA...

By Joe Boss Red Seven, in X-Wing

X-WING EPIC AIN'T ARMADA!

The Man said so...

:lol:

The Empire WILL be getting Huge babies too... like we knew it would.

Now we can all just chill and be happy while we wait.

:D

I'm not watching that hour and a half long video...

But after playing 3,000 points in a single game I can comfortably say that X-Wing is not Armada.

You don't say? ...

The link was set at the time stamp 59:31 referring to the point... you should not have to watch the entire video.

Basically somewhere at the 1:01 point.

YES! Can't wait. Thanks FFG. Keep em coming!

Trade in my cardboard box for a Uhaul trailer after this year is over. Might need one when they put out the scale imperial star destroyer. :D

And actually watching the whole video is not a bad thing, lots of x-wing talk for a general FFG talk from the CEO

Huh, it must've not worked because I'm on mobile...

Sorry bud, yeah I was trying to get you guys right to the good news. If you get time the entire show is good, like Sigidi says. there is a lot of fun news and questions answered at the end of the presentation.

He basically says: there's people wondering "Why do rebels have 2 huge ships and we don't" Well don't worry too much about that.......

How have we on;y just heard that this was said?

The video was just released by Team Covenant last night.

Interesting watching it. FFG's looking pretty promising on quite a few things.

I just watched the last part of it - the Q&A part. Wow, it was hard to hear what he was saying, and nigh impossible to discern the questions.

Ugh, it's gonna be that ugly EU thing people keep posting pictures of isn't it? Not looking forward to that.

Sorry to sound like a miserable whiner, and I know the "if you don't want it don't buy it; it's just nasty to begrudge other people who do want it getting to have it" argument makes perfect sense (I use it myself regarding prequel stuff), but the thing is I have this psychological disorder where I have an unstoppable compulsion to buy every Star Wars related miniatures product FFG sell, so I have no choice but to buy one :(

Wanna define Ugly EU Thing?

There are a few options out there...

Don't worry= more Epic Huge Ships are coming.

I think it was around the size of a CR90, long and thin, vaguely phallic, not very Empirey.

Did you ever truly doubt that FFG would pass on the opportunity to produce cheap plastic toys and sell them with outrageous profit to big kids like us? What's the world coming to with this massive loss of faith in capitalism....

Indeed - after all, let's face it, X-Wing Epic format is just an opportunity for players to field three times as many X-Wing miniatures than they normally would and/or assorted big, Epic-exclusive toys at the same time...

...and I'm OK with that.

This makes me quite happy. After no Epic news at Gen Con and the announcement of Armada, I was worried that FFG was saying "No Huge ships, but here's the Decimator as a consolation prize. It's kinda, sorta like a Epic ship...".

They say they have plans for the Empire.... that must be the plans for the DEATH STAR!!!

Spoiler Alert... it doesn't end well for the Imperials.

Now all we need is a couple of bothans

Or a princess and a plucky little R2 unit.

It'll be fine. 2pt upgrade: exhaust cover. Death Star only.

That and the new ARMADA Goodies... yeah it was looking bad for our BELOVED EPIC... for about a week.
