BOSS': STAR WARS X-WING WAVES 7 TO 9...?

By Joe Boss Red Seven, in X-Wing

Several good ideas in that second batch of pics, but a preybird? It's just a bad version of a Z-95 in the lore and games. No 9-point ships, please. I would replace it with the Otana on that list alongside the Skipray.

I can see TOR and KoTOR ships in there. That's pushing wishful thinking a bit far.

Not sure what the Outrider's doing there.

Yeah Alex just talked about the game eras expanding, in the coming years just to have new goodies to make. He even mentioned Clone Wars ships...

That's twisting his words at best and falsifying them at worst. He said that ships run out and he could see something like an ARC-170 happening in GCW.

How about some "Uglies"?

The two on the left are just silly. Uglies were supposed to be cobbled together with whatever they could find. There are enough parts in the left two to create a complete x-wing and tie.

Uglies are cool when done right.

Watch it again... i know what has been said over the last year of interviews thanks. Do you?

Learn how to read between the lines young man.

Dude says we'll take anything cool from anywhere, if Chris likes it, and LLC lets us do it.

Yep, a Preybird. It has an aft missile launcher. :D Ordnance fix + missile-only rear arc + a couple of titles for Mazzic's two birds + a solid pilot ability for Shada Dukhal? I'd fly that ship for sure. Give it a Z-95 dial/stats, one extra hull point and a 5 K Turn and it'd be the Scum X Wing, sorta.

The more I think about it, the more I'd like an uglies wave...

...cause then I'd finally not have a wave to drop a load of money on lol I'd get one of each for cards, then sell the ships on ebay.

By the end of Wave 8:

  • Each faction will have 11 ships. 8 small (Scum: Scyk and Heavy Scyk) and 3 large
  • TIE Hunter because it shows up in multiple FFG artwork
  • Kihraxz because it's on an upgrade card
  • Ghost because Rebels was mentioned in the in-flight report
  • Hound's Tooth because, along with Wave 7 prediction, would mean all the bounty hunters from Empire will be accounted for

The one on the lower left is technically an Ugly, but it's built to a uniform design (assuming it's the Twi'lek "Deathseed"). The S-foils rotate independently around the cockpit a lot like the B-wing. Performance-wise it seems to have been between its two progenitors in speed and maneuverability and possessed shields, hyperdrive, and the X-wing's quad guns obviously.

This is so full of win... DAMMIT WIN!

:lol:

Do I spy Nym's Scurrg H-6 in the middle of that lot?http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Scurrg_H-6_prototype_bomber

Yup... cause I like it along with the other Scummy Bombers I included, and since we know that FFG is fixing bombs in Wave 7...

;)

I can absolutely see this in the near future for Scum and Villainy. Nym was a Rebel sympathizer, but a Scum and a Villian nonetheless. I can also see a "Havoc" title card that grants an extra crew and turret upgrade.

But whatever they do if they decide to produce it, that would be a sweet looking model.

It would bring joy to my heart for Rebels to get another turreted ship and make all the Imperial slugs wipe tears from their eyes with their Autothruster upgrade cards! :D

P-$$$ knocked it out of the ball park with his Wave 8 pretty picture!!!

This is such an awesome idea. You can get your target lock and then just shoot past your target on your next turn to shoot him. Man that would be an awesome ship to have.

Does Mel do a Preybird? I know Gosric does... but I think that was part of his Wave 4 ;)

My Wave 7 will be bigger ;)

Im afraid I dont have the preybird. Since Gosric already did it I decided not to do the ships he already had made.

I want to see this, but I don't want it to be the same game. ATATs totally need the armor mechanic that was introduced in D&D Attack Wing.

I know the game must grow or die. I know we need expansions. But part of me wishes we could have paused the game an expansion ago. I feel like I need to buy the Star Viper so I can have auto thrusters and accuracy correcter but I don't really want to fly S&V.

With the fun previews of ARMADA at Gama this week, I made the first update for my 2015 predictions.

Looks like we are in for some fun new toys in 2015...

:wub:

you got 2 hounds teeth in that original picture.

Yeah, I was not sure if they would go Huge or Large so I put both in... kinda funny.

:D
