Of course, with total perfection.

Excellent. We'll let a reputation for perfection develop on its own, though.

And advance notice by 2 or 3 months. With shoes dipping into Xwing also. Second checked.

I've personally checked Newt's old statements by hand. He's quite accurate and sometimes quite early.

Has he really been that accurate 2-3 months out? I'm more impressed with Newt than I usually am!

I'm now tired of it, but I did at one time dig through all of newts posts (i know allllll your dirty laundry, that you sacrificed the kessel slaves to appease the bothan gods). He has a pretty good record.

Lol, I'd have gotten tired of it after the first thread.

I always knew he was good, but 2-3 months is more lead time than I remember.

We'll miss him, that's for sure.

His info has always been reliable, and sometimes well in advance of other information sources.

Wave 2 now listed as shipping now!

Do anybody remember the time wave 1 needed from "shipping now" to reach stores in europe?

That the biggest issue of the kack of offical word from ffg

Newt, any news btw for Wave8 Xwing? It should be soon i think. =(

*worry worry

Yes, I'm a dude.

This made me lol.

I suspect I had a little something to do with this, because every time people would argue about your information and weather or not it was accurate, I'd come to your defense and use "She" instead of "He". The sole reason was some challenge I saw about a year ago, to try to use the female option if gender was unknown - and observe the reaction. It changed the way I looked at using "he" all the time. People would ask me "How do you know hes a girl? Do you know her?" - and I'd reply with something like "How do you know she's a he? Do you know him?"

Anyhow I hope all is well and someone isn't losing their job. Thanks for the info!

You should try to give both pronouns equal airtime. If you don't know the gender of the person you're talking about, alternate between he and she in the same conversation. That and it will be amusing to see the person you're talking to try to keep up

yes, because pronoun assumption is clearly a pox on humanity

well gents, it's the 23rd

you know what that means!

In this game comprised so heavily of men.

Well, its enough of a Pox that one of the FAQ and Tournament Rules updates changed (almost) all instances of "His" to "His or Her"...

Just to make sure that women couldn't overlap their ships during setup.

My Mini Market Order Status has been changed to "Contents Verified..."

Just placed mine. Three new ships to build out.

We're getting the Gozanti cruiser, the T-70 and the Tie/FO before the end of the year and US distributors have already ordered them.

The rest of Wave 8 isn't happening until next year, sadly.

Honestly, I didn't believe FFG could manage 3 major Star Wars releases before Christmas: Armada Wave 2, X-wing wave 8 and the new Imp assault Hoth wave; it was just to much to expect we'd see it drop in the same month.

Thanks much. That's invaluable information. Wow. I don't think anyone else ATM even knows this.

Most of us were actually expecting Disney might push them to fix their deliveries for Xmas.

Thanks Newt. You've saved me a month of play testing focus I don't need to do for Xwing!
