Which preview will be out today?

By Mu0n729, in X-Wing

Just want the points cost of the cheapest Protectorate, is that too much to ask! :D

On this everything depends!

In all honesty even knowing the cheapest cost of the Protectorate doesn't really matter for the Scyk. I run the number using the cheapest Scyk with all upgrades to bring to on par with what we know Of the Protectorate, and it is only four points cheaper of the most expensive Protectorate. So unless they can release an epic fix for the Scyk that ship is mostly out of the game. Which is rather upsetting as I do like the ship.

At the bare minimum, we will get Heroes of the Resistance spoiled over the next 5 weeks, since that will at least be at Gencon.

So... Colored bases and pegs .

I know these will actually come in handy someday but I can't seem to make up my mind between green or purple.

The Empire uses green of course. Red for the Rebels. Rest for Scum&Villainy...!

Word the street it'll be long awaited rebel veterans. The first ship is the underused e wing. They've listened to player demand and are including a few fixes for the ship: an astromech and a system upgrade. The astromech is call N33-DD2-W1N and it says when you would take damage, don't. The system upgrade is called advanced GIT GUD deflectors and it reads "when you perform an attack, the opponent does not roll defense dice. The pack will cost $100 :-)

This is sooooo very funny; it's what some players (the baby-minded minority) I run into really want to say about the E-wing; whiners the lot of 'em. I love flying my E (the best single ship in the game as far as kicking booty 1 on 1) and think the 'fixers' that beg for something like your wonderful satire above should shut up and learn to fly it.

Do you use anthing besides Corran? If no, you know what those people want to be fixed.

Nobody has suggested Corran needs fixing. Indeed, an awful lot of the discussion around potential e-wing upgrades has revolved around how to fix etahn and the generics without rendering Corran wildly OP.

INTERDICTOR!

for Armada.

Also mentions an article incoming tomorrow for Armada. Trying to decide if that increases or decreases the odds of a X-wing article...

Lets you move obstacles at least once after setup. Extrapolating wildly ... could we be nearing a capability in X-wing to adjust or remove obstacles from the board? (I've always wanted that ability, so this is more opportunistic wishful thinking than anything else.)

Extreme extrapolation and eagle eyed zoomers have concluded that Seismic Torpedoes might be able to destroy obstacles.

So hopefully we can both add and remove obstacles.

well, debris field launchers ala the shadowcaster has the later half covered

Suggestion: destroy one obstacle, but before removing it, place 3 mini debris field within range 1. Could be fun ;)

Yeah, but if FFG tries to bump up the usability of generic E-wings, they'll leave other generics with the same alleged problem: very little history of use and the player gripes that come along with it....like the Phantom, etc. Performing such a 'lower-pilot fix' might be akin to opening Pandora's box.

Funny, it seems to be working fine for the Defender and the Bomber and the Advanced and so forth.

TIE Defenders have to share their release article with other products? Indefensible!

Now that I got my worlds ticket I would really love to see some more spoiler stuff so I know what I need to prepare for.

Wouldn't mind Wave 9 news either.

Wouldn't mind Wave 9 news either.

Agreed. I know that it's probably hoping against all hope, but would be nice to see that out for worlds just shake things up a bit.

Also, just to start some other discussion, will we ever see Obi-Wan crew? he got his IA iteration spoiled today. Would be great to see.

I understand your desire, but I would not bank my hopes on wave 9 reaching worlds in time. It is still in the printing stage, add 3 months of "on the boat" and then add 11 days of wait time for "premium events" (see tournament regulations).

I could use some news for wave 9 though; it would cheer me up.

I expect the next BIG X-Wing news day to be at Star Wars Celebration during the Coruscant Invitational.

So, next weekend then.

But I want the ARC-170 fully spoiled now. :( Please? That way even if it's a couple of months I'll have an excuse to play X-Wing in Vassal.

Heaven alone knows why I want that ship so bad. I never watched Clone Wars. I really dislike the prequel movies. And yet... :)
