Wave 8: Mist Hunter, Punishing One, Inquisitor TIE, Ghost

By Skargoth, in X-Wing

Even more interesting - he said flat-out that they have Episode VII stuff 'on the water', he just 'can't talk about it quite yet'.

And that all these releases 'may' be early 2016...but there is something 'important going on at the factory he can't talk about quite yet' that is causing delay with the X-Wing line.

So....yeah, we are getting some kind of Episode VII stuff BEFORE we get these. I assume something like the 'Most wanted' pack to give us the T-70 and new TIE Fighters, but...who knows....

That's the impression I got too. Would love to see some kind of Ace pack that includes at least one T-70 X-wing.

Did they mention if the Ghost go cloaking? It's been mentioned before but the particle accelerator and adv cloaking device are ship specific.

Stygium Particle Accelerator is not ship specific.

By 'on the water' he meant the Episode VII stuff are already on the boat? If so that makes sense that Disney doesn't want a 3rd party to spoil plot and characters before they can.

might as well be. nothing else can cloak 'yet'

Better than wave 7 for sure!

Definitely not.

Definitely my favorite wave.

Hence the OP's question :P They asked if it can cloak, but doubted it because they thought all the cloaking stuff so far was Phantom-only. But it isn't, so it leaves the potential for further cloaking ships...

Remember that time a bunch of angry guys tried to argue that it was prequel era and would never make it in?

Hahah.

Can the TIEs and the Phantom re-dock?

Hahah.

Triad to argue the Ghost is prequel era? That's just stupid.

I meant to say 'not' to show it might be of use to future ships possible.

Anyone else notice the Cloak token next to the Mist Hunter?

Yeah, it was really stupid. It was a super desperate move to go, "Nuh, not disney in muh stur wurs" but well.

There ya' go. Ghost and Phantom, Gozanti and TIEs. Expect "Carrier" mechanics and single-ship lists. When it comes to The Ghost and Phantom anyway.

This might be a ridiculous question....but.... Is the ghost huge or large base? If it's large.... In the show the ghost is about same size as gozanti. IS the gozanti huge base? What if it's only a large base? Siiiiick!

Awesome news! And all my wave 8 predictions came true. I can't wait to do an epic game with all the ESB bounty hunters!

It's only Large... And The Ghost is essentially the absolute limit of that base as well.

What photo are you looking at???

Gozanti is on a huge base. No photo of the Ghost on a base yet.

Depends. I like the minis way better in wave 8...

Wave 7 added a lot of interesting stuff around how bombs work, slam, etc -- though I didn't like how it blurred the distinction again between rebels and imperials by giving the rebels more bombing options.

Plus the k-wing is the stupidest looking ship since the outrider.

Better than wave 7 for sure!

The most important thing is that it gave EMON more bombing options.

Does the Ghost come with the Phantom as a separate ship? If not, how is the Phantom represented?

Soooo, Chopper crew card? Maybe even an astromech card at some point.
