Which preview will be out today?

By Mu0n729, in X-Wing

well, they FORCE me to buy 3x imp.veterans soon.. *not complaining, just stating facts* ;)

It's a Star Wars game, the "Force" had to be involved somehow ;)

But I'm not weak-minded; I actually wanted to buy them!... and then buy more? Where is that hand-like shadow passing over me coming from? ;)

Guidance chips was way better than any iteration I had seen predicted. Super-excited. (Compare to Targeting Astro which is much worse than expected.) I am now most excited by the Boba Fett crew card. What is it going to be?

Their Jedi mind-tricks do not work on me!

Indeed. Much better than the free offensive-focus I was seeing tossed around or the free mini-focus I assumed it would be. The idea of it being better on ship's with high primary weapon values was also a big surprise- Every prediction I'd seen assumed that clause would be a restriction.

Please, we need to know what the Bounty Hunters do. Especially the crew versions. That, and getting the full rules for the Tractor Beam is ideal.

They released what tractor beam did, 1 pt cannon 3 atk dice if this attack hits defender receives tractor beam token.

Tractor Beam token reduces the ships agility value by 1, all tractor beam tokens fall off at the end of the round.

Except that you don't know what's hidden in the lower part of the card.
That's what got me intrigued.

I want to know!

There is a lot of text on the bottom half off the card. I think it is important to see all the rules. I mean, SLAM is very different without all the text.

With only the top half of the card, SLAM moves you and gives you a weapons disabled token, but the token does nothing!

Also, half a boost card has you put your chosen maneuver template on the board ... and leave it there. The ship doesn't move or anything.

thats my kind of boost

I am very curious to see more about the Mist Hunter. Hope they post the article soon!

:)

Getting close to that time again... Mist Hunter anyone? Maybe?

Their Wave 8 previews are following SWX ## order, so yes, Mist Hunter should be next.

(Trembling prediction based on sample size of 2 for this sequence thus far.)

I'm also curious about this one. Alex Davy mentioned 4LOM is his favorite pilot from the wave if I remember correctly. :)

Yup he mentioned it is similar to the Scum HWK pilots. The sort of thing that makes your opponent say,

*sigh* "Again? Well, okay. If I have to..."

I'm excited.

Needs to be one of the bounty hunters! Feels like at least 4 consecutive Reb/Imp previews now.

Scum are still a thing, guys.

well, it does literally need to be a scum thing

we've done all the reb/imp stuff already (and it was four consecutive, T-70+ FO and now Ghost + Inq Tie)

I don't think they've done The Mist Hunter yet.

I bet they're saving The Punishing One for last.

Mist Hunter Friday.

Punishing One 1/15.

Release by 2/1.

An FLGS owner just put a link to this on Facebook, claiming that it typically means release is imminent. He expects 14 days or less.

So Mist Hunter Article this week, Punishing One next week, and then the release article at the start of the following.

Unless, of course, he is wrong.

Release in 2 weeks would be INSANE.

And totally throw off the meta just in time for most of the store championships.

Oh. Yes.

Isn't stuff usually 'on the boat' for at least a few weeks once previews are done? I have only been around for wave 7 release,but IIRC it was released quite a bit after previews were done

Mist Hunter Friday.

Punishing One 1/15.

Just about this. IIRC quite a few of the previous waves have gone on sale the last weekend of the month.

I'd expect a wave summary/strategy preview article following the JM5K, then on sale the next week. Seems legit.
