Midnight EST and I have the new core set!!!!!!!

By NorseJedi, in X-Wing

Not joking, purchasing now!!!

More posting!

Woop! woop!

Xwing has 3 loops like IG88D.

TIE has 2 speed s loops!

Edit: Having had more time to read, the T70 has a tallon roll. Esentially use the 3 turn template, but face 180 degrees from how you started at the beginnig of the maneuver. Then slide along the side of your base like a barrel roll as desired. Very cool move!

It's not 3 loop, it's a Tallon Roll! close enough!

I have to admit, I kind of love that you guys are still posting all this info like it's the first time we've seen it. :D

Keep the hype alive!!!

It's not 3 loop, it's a Tallon Roll! close enough!

:-) Forgive me while I type furiously in excitement!

Excitement is nice, but there was actually a lot that was NOT spoiled.

Like, for example...what scenarios are in it?!

Just got back from Target with my copy. They went fast.

Hello Luuke.

yes/no

Poe's is offensive as well as defensive

Luke's is completely action independent (doesn't need to have the focus present, so won't care about bumping etc)

Imo, Luke's ability is decidedly superior for its sheer flexibility. The major difference, however, is that Poe gets thrusters :)

Well, I did misspell Luke's name on purpose you know. :P

Actually, I wonder how much of the movie you can spoil by analyzing what is released today in the way of pilot abilities.

Rumour does have it Luke's severed hand plays a part...

It comes with a learn to play, and a very nice rules reference.

The 3 missions are:

Ambush - Destroy all enemy ships

Raid - Destroy all ships or Destroy/Protect satelites

Rescue - Protect/Destroy Special Ship

Good variety there! They are running out of ideas. Too much content. Too fast...
