We got to talk to Alex Davy today at our store championship

By Rogue Dakotan, in X-Wing

I'll take this glimmer of hope and run with it, heh.

Pretty much, yeah.

The wave 7 tidbit is very interesting. Also since they have changed how the site looks my eyes are in pain!

Use the old theme.

Down in the bottom left of the screen, next to the RSS feed icon (the orange square thingy) is a link to change theme. You can reset it back to the old one.

Not with me it isn't

why on earth would I want an Imperial fighter that looks like a mini-van ?

if FFG releases this ship, for sure the model will be cool

If anyone can polish a turd FFG can

Take.

That.

Back.

also you're and heretic and blasphemer and subject to the worst hells that can be conjured

I shall handle it.

Good News.

How can you not love this ship.

This and Advanced Concussion Missiles will put the force back into balance.

(You can thank JayRhea for this custom card)

If they do a triple faction bomber aces pack they could do a new sculpt for the B-wing/E2 with the proper cockpit,

12 points is the minimum point cost for a ship. Also, how is a quad TIE bomber cheaper than a TIE bomber?

I wouldn't bother with all the critiques and comments on this card,

it's not my card, I found it over at Afewmaneuvers

and thought the ship looked awesome. I didn't even think about the stats.

If I bothered to put together a card it would look very different.

Funny - that;s pretty much exactly what some Jehova's Witnesses told me last week when I mentioned that encouraging people to find out "what does the Bible really say?" was probably going to be counter-productive in their efforts to drum up converts

So, the Assault Gunboat seems like it might have at least a soft confirmation. At the very least, the point that the forums are read & acknowledged is reinforced (not only by his direct statement but also by) that he knows it's a fan favorite.

Are they likely to though if it looks more like a Rebel ship?

I'd guess if they were going to release an Imperial ship they would stick with a TIE variant.

I also have little doubt it will be this TIE variant,

because no matter what any critics say,

I'm sure it's all already been said about the TIE/sa bomber.

The Assault Gunboat looks closer to the Lambda than anything the Rebels have.

In case anyone in this thread somehow missed it, The Article in Question has been posted.

I'll be sure to let you guys know when the next episode is up. It'll probably be a week or two... we're all quite busy at the moment + time it takes to edit it together. But we're trying to get it done ASAP! :D

If there are new models for a Rebel bomber, hopefully it'll be something like the ship on the cover of "AoR: Stay On Target"

Thanks for that lead. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/TIE/IT_Interdictor_starfighter

Apparently the TIE Interdictor is mention in the FFG "Stay On Target" Sourcebook,

Which makes it much more likely to make an appearance in X-wing.

I also vote for the Skipray Blastboat, for both the Empire and (stolen by) Scum.

They actually believe that stuff, though.

I usually point out things like the devil has three to ten kills to his name but God has killed 2.8 million, also the part where gods powerless against anyone with an iron chariot which is most people these days hell I have two cars I'm doubly safe ;)

If they do the Interdictor or Oppressor than the game has truly jumped the shark.

Edited by All Shields Forward

The gun boats been around nearly 20 years it's a well established ship and would make alot of people happy.

The interdictor is obscure and although not as insane as some tie variants no where near as many people are clamouring for it.

I opened the door once half-naked and smeared in chocolate.

That was nearly 6 years ago. Haven't seen them since.

I do sort of miss punching their world-views in the nether regions.

That Star Wing thing looks interesting. I'd say it looks a little too close to the Lambda to warrant FFG to put it into the game but we do have Z-95's which are similar to X-Wings.

Keep in mind it's a single-seat fighters, nowhere near the size of the Lambda.

For easy scale, the cockpit area should be about the same size as the X-wing's.

So definitely not a Large base ship then.

Oh, definitely not. It's shorter than the X-wing by a couple of metres, but wider by about the same.

If it's that small and FFG makes it, I think it is unlikely that the wings will move.

Yeah, considering the StarViper's s-foils don't, it wouldn't surprise me if they put it as a $20 booster.
