Sure there's all the chatter about nationals and what can be bought. But what do you think the will announce or unveil? That's what I want to know.
In all the gencon talk, no one is asking this.
I just expect an "early" release of the Raider and Wave 7. Maybe a teaser for Wave 8 or Scum Epic?
I think we will see an ace's pack. now what is in it I am not sure maybe an X and Y wing or more scum pilots. I am hoping for the X wing "fix" or "titile" or whatever it is but that may be saved for the wave with ep 7 stuff.
I'm hoping for either a new Ace's type pack or something to do with The Force Awakens.
My money is on the force awakens. I think the marketing campaign will ramp up for the movie towards August/September, so it makes sense.
With a supposed August Release of Raider and Wave 7, then a December/January release of Episode VII stuff makes sense. But with FFG's current "delays" then it will be a March release for a December movie.
It seems like they have to announce something, right? We can't have all our ships in-hand without news to chew on!
It feels like wave 7 is such new news that I hadn't even thought about it.
i think a ace pack for later this year, either a scum epic ship or another imperial epic but more like their transport. and a movie wave for early next year
Last year I got the decimator and outrider at Gen-con months before they hit the stores. I am fully expecting the Raider and wave 7 to be there this year.
My money is on the force awakens. I think the marketing campaign will ramp up for the movie towards August/September, so it makes sense.
If they have Episode VII stuff in production, they won't be able to announce it at Gencon. I believe September is when all the merchandise gets to be revealed. FFG would be tied to that schedule.
Early release of wave 7 just like last year and then a preview of 3 aces packs for wave 8 by Xmas. :-)
Rebels: X-wing & E-wing
Empire: Defender & Bomber
Scum: Starviper & M3-A
All ships that are in production and can easily make the holidays with new paint and cards.

Gencon is typically the time and place for product preview and announcements. That said, I'm not expecting Episode VII product even announced pre-movie release. I am however hopeful for it, or a Rebel Aces pack for X and Y wings

Typically, aces packs aren't considered to be part of any wave. X-Wing waves are usually for new ships, the notable exception being Most Wanted. Not that it couldn't happen, but I think it's unlikely such packs would be called a wave.
Imperial Assault (warfare) without tiles.
Dust tactics compared to Dust Warfare. A large base scum ship.
Something else to take my money
My guess is early release of wave 7 and the raider with no new content announced for X-wing.
I'm hoping they announce the Scum epic ship, but I'm not expecting it.
I really hope they don't put out any more mixed ship aces packs...I LIKE that the Imperial Aces was two Interceptors.

See I am quite the opposite, I typically have enough of each ship for “1 ship type” 100 point lists, I would be willing to buy a X & Y aces pack even though I don’t need another X-Wing however it would be kinda annoying to have to buy X-Wing 5 & 6 just for the pilots.
I'm all for different ship aces packs
I would love a Most Wanted type of product for Imperials or Rebels.
I am betting that they will announce a new Star Wars game of some type based on Episode 7 material. Nothing will be revealed other than it's existence and then they will let us know they currently have no plans to add Episode 7 content to X-wing since it is set during the Galactic Civil War.
I like the idea of sliding into Ace packs (as opposed to waves) for a while to make sure everything gets some love. All ships need more than 2 named pilots and all ships need more Generics with EPTs to be made.
Second Imperial epic ship, hopefully the Gozanti, and hopefully an Epic reveal for Scum too.
Armada/Epic sized playmat.

I think they might do that too.
The Lego stuff has shown many of the new ships already. We know that FFG is all over new STAR WARS goodies with full liscense done for years to come. We could literalley see anything from the EU and the NU (NEW Universe - of film cannon)... who knew after all of the FUBAR Prqules crap?
:lol: ![]()
I think that most of the hundred + new toys possibl will be great... hels-yah!

They DID preview Scum last year, and that didn't get released until...err...March?
I could foresee a big preview like that again. An aces pack and/or Epic Ship for Scum.
Imperial Aces 2: new pilots and options for the Tie Fighter/Phantom.
I would so buy an Armada mat for my Xwing.

Not me. I like having an even number of most ships. So a package that gives me an odd number of two different ships is annoying. Especially if the pilots are must-have.
Imperial Aces 2: new pilots and options for the Tie Fighter/Phantom.
No thanks. Between Core and the TIE Fighter expansion, the last thing the game needs is more TIE Fighter pilots.
