No, no no. It's true.

If anyone wants me, you know what to do: activate the big spotlight that shines a silhouette of a man vomiting with frustration.

I love internet hyperbole willy-swinging. It is the eloquent counterpart to txt msgs that make me have faith that our language and it's glorious subtleties will never die. Good for you, sir.

Okay, so let me advance an actual discussion.

Looking at the Title, "Lets Get Fantasy Flight to Start Selling Card Packs".

Now, putting aside any absurdity in wether or not it will happen, we should focus on how to effect such change.

Obviously, a One-Off Email will not work (as they do not accept unsolicited game design information - its on their contact page), but how could you do it to make it work?

Would you start an Online Petition?

Would you do the economic baseline work to see what card decks would cost through a 3rd Party and then formally request that FFG take that usbmission (the details of how to do so are based on their appointment system - and hint, this has already basically been done for you in the first part....)

How would you seriously effect change given the inherently insular nation of a For-Profit Company ?

I am surprised this topic has lasted this long. If FFG was going to make card packs, they would have done so for X-wing already. Regardless of individual ship cost variance between X-wing and Armada. Having card packs is a "nice to have" but not a "must have". Plain and simple.

I want card packs

This could work, I'll get right on it as soon as I get the flying pigs to vacate my nethers

I, as well, will endeavour to bring this to pass!

As soon as I deal with the Winged simians making an areal egress from my posterior.

Butt seriously, card packs would be a good move in the long term. I buy lots of Armada, about what I use to spend on x-wing. Use to, before the BS of releasing crap ships I never heard of that I had to buy if I wanted to stay F#$@ing competative.

Plain and simple, I don't x-wing no more.

I still firmly believe that Armada is currently 80-95% skill. Cards help but as we saw at world's, upgrade cards are not really needed.

This game has a huge level of depth

I have had so many conversations or email exchanges with students in the last few years wherein I anger them by indicating that simply saying, "This is my opinion" does not preclude a connected statement from being dead wrong. It still baffles me that some feel those four words somehow give them carte blanche to spout batshit oratory or prose. And it really scares me that some of those students think education that challenges their ideas is equivalent to an attack on their beliefs.

"First off as my signature states, I run Armada Tactics News. A youtube channel that has battle reports so you can go check out those and see if I am a bad player or not"

I change my mind you are bad..

read your upgrade cards know how they work and who they work on......

running a youtube Channel didn't make you an expert.

but its fun watching you make mistake. LOL

Seems like you watched my Vader Duet list in which it was pointed out that Vader does not work on squadrons. Honest mistake that has not happened again.

Nice to know ow I am a bad player. Must say something that I have played and beaten Shmitty in a game (only because I took the points and ran. . . Hopefully Saturday I can get a real Victory!). It's not like Mikael Hasselstein is a good player right everyone, he has only 9 Armada medals, won 2 Sullust events, and is a pain in the button when he is in competitive mode! Guess that means everyone he has beaten was bad as well.

*rolls eyes*

badgerclaw171, go check yourself at the door. We really don't need or want your type of attitude here.

see when you post that you are really good and you make bad mistake and post those mistake on youtube that funny.

and you keep on boosting that you are the that good, your the one with attitude

that's what I expect from 22 year old.

I really hope you only post drunk because you write like a 12 year old. It is quite painful to try and get through your grammatical stumbling and bumbling.

I have Dyslexia would You two like to make fun of my wheelchair as well?

or maybe the MS?

all this because I agreed with someone that it was expensive to buy a ship for one card.

WOW it Amazing what people will type on a computer that they probably would say to your face..DarthSidious,ScottieATF, & Lyraeus

Get over it.

In the end, this thread is meaningless because if FFG were to do this they would have to restructure their entire miniatures business model and it would end up costing them more money. If it ends up costing them more money they will likely drop the line. Look at Dust if you don't believe me.

Actually, sir, I was pointing out to ScottieATF that you might not be a native English speaker, which might have explained your wording. It's not a personal attack, nor was it making fun of you. However, you have done nothing but attack other people on this thread. Your dyslexia and MS do not give you license to do so without being called out for it.

No probably about it. I would say it to your face. You are the one blowing out of portion a single human error.

that makes you an ass Lyraeus good for you. loser

again you are reading more in to what I wrote I never said that what FFG should do.

what I said was that it was expensive to buy a ship for one card.

" You are the one blowing out of portion a single human error. "

my count you are at 4 error....

You are a fool plain and simple. Let's get to your errors, each post currently on this treat including your inability to type, quote, or provide any meaningful discourse is pathetic.

My response on why FFG won't do this was a lead to get back in topic. Get rid of your useless ego.

No probably about it. I would say it to your facethat makes you an ass Lyraeus good for you.

Actually you are the one being personally aggressive and offensive. You are insulting others frequently, and for no reason. If he pointed that out face to face, then he isn't an ass, you are the ass first.

Now it seems like you are using your alleged disabilities to hide behind being rude to others. That's not an acceptable thing to do. Either be a decent person, or don't, but don't justify being a terrible person with a terrible opinion because you have disabilities.

Also, no one mentioned your disabilities until you did. Hiding behind them now? Gross.

I been attack the moment posted on here all because I agreed with someone that it was expensive to buy a ship for one card.

buy $40+ ship is Expensive for one upgrade card. unlike X-Wing where "most" of the ships are between $12 to $20.

wow I must of deserve that from all of you.

So happy to be part of this cordial, mature community.

"Also, no one mentioned your disabilities until you did. Hiding behind them now? Gross. "

when you Attack someone ability to write when they have Dyslexia yeah that's not attack them and there disabilities?

I pointed that because you don't know and said you that's Gross what kind of person are you?

I'm done with you two.

if you have something to say I'm in Colorado....

You use [ quote ] (no spaces) and [ / quote ] (still no spaces) it is pretty easy to use.

Can we go back on the topic? I still say no.

As I said before, I don't think card packs are the way to go. But I could see a print on demand service working for FFG. There is certainly a market for individual cards and they could get in on that, plus there is practically zero overhead that way. I am curious to see how it works out for Wyrd though before I say for certain.

You mentioned the MS, and the wheelchair, challenging people to insult you based on them. No one insulted you for your dyslexia. No one knew that you had dyslexia, then you said you did, and no one has called you out for your errors after that (Lyraeus did, but only in response to your fixation on his one error.)

I'm not in Colorado. In case you didn't notice we can communicate over the internet.

Anyway, I will be done with you as well. If you want to talk to me come to Minnesota, or respond on the internet because we have that capacapability now.

Lyraeus: how dare you think we could get back on topic?! Though in truth there hasn't been anything significant to say on topic for about 9 pages now, except for Average Boss's interesting "print on demand" idea - it won't happen, but it's at least an interesting point.
