Panel Miscellanea

By WonderWAAAGH, in X-Wing

For your informative pleasure:

Episode 7 "games" are incoming. No specific information on whether these are new games, or additions to existing franchises. Horvath seemed especially tight lipped on this one, for obvious reasons.

X-Wing ships originally went through 5 different ship size/scale iterations.

FFG just recently extended their SW contract, so we can expect to see games for many, many more years.

The articulated wing joints on the Lambda Shuttle came about originally as a product of packaging issues.

The Tantive IV epic ship is composed of 80 separate pieces!

FFG processes 8,000 different pieces of artwork a year.

They showed a mocked up Red Squadron Pilot from the very first round of development - 4 hull, PS2, 13 points.

FFG has quadrupled production of their games over the past few years.

On a related note, I was told by a staff member at the booth that the FFG Customer Service department reviews the message boards once or twice a week, as per their assigned duties.

I want to say something in the core sets talked about production and you can see the 5 different sizes they were looking at. One was pretty big.

They might have mentioned that, I was just trying to take note of the pertinent or interesting info being shared with us.

Can you confirm the scum small base ship was ps9? This must be a new character.

I cannot. My attentions were divided between the screen and my phone, for obvious reasons.
