Wave 8 "On The Boat" for two months...

By Joe Boss Red Seven, in X-Wing

Anyone wanna say why?

:lol:

Well the boat only has a 1 straight on its dial..

1. They are waiting for a simultaneous release world wide.

2. California is having dock worker strike issues again

3. They are waiting until after Store Championship season

4. FFG wants to torture you

Wouldn't there be a pretty large 'price to carry' if they didn't get this inventory out to distributors?

5. They dont give a **** cause we are going to buy it even covered in seagull $hit after all this "on the boat" anyway? :D

The US has been getting a ton of nature-related issues this winter, which may be delaying their distribution.

Considering that last week passed without anything changing status from "On the Boat" to "Now Shipping," I can only assume something got horribly borked. They normally have at least some sort of new product on its way out to stores, even if it's just a reprint.

1) I am American therefore I officially don't care about the insignificant countries not called "America"

2) Where the hell are the Pinkerton's? Break their heads! I want my toys!!

3) That's not a valid reason. (maybe slightly, but no!)

4) THIS! THIS IS THE REASON! THIS RIGHT F'ING HERE!!!!

So...7 degrees of separation...anyone know any Pirates who can take care of this dilemma for us? I mean, honestly, how hard can it be to catch a boat that is clearly moving slower than you can row on a whale carcass?

I think it's literally off the boat a few weeks before that status changes to "Shipping Now". So Wave 8 is on land by now.

So you're saying Pirates won't be able to help then?

Those insignificant countries are origins to your one.

CA has not had a dock worker strike in a very long time. Management has prevented dock workers from working, however. A lockout is when owners try to get workers to starve slowly by trying to get them to starve quickly. Management wins the fight when people yell at laborers to "get back to work"- which they can only do by accepting pay/conditions that are not great. Part of the way management can win is by outsiders confusing a "lockout" with a "strike". If one side is using confusion and obfuscation as a tactic, I'm going to be leaning to the other side, personally.

Yes, I am going to call out the use of the wrong term every time I see it. Sorry about that. :)

All straight maneuvers are Red and the other players keep changing it to the white turns, where it just goes in circles. Actually the boat sank in the Marianas Trench and we are waiting for an updated Glomar Explorer to bring up the advanced weapons we so desperately waiting to spend our hard earned credits on.

one of the supermarkets I vissit was out of bananas because of storms in the tropics and at sea.

... the boat didn't make it...

I was about to talk smack and then noticed you are Polish....which means your statement is 100% accurate in my case.

That said, send over some of your finest Golumpki and Pierogi carried by Dorata Rabczewska and nobody has to get hurt ;)

Haha world such a small place after all :D

and the freaking boat still can't reach destination....

My wife just made Golabki (correct should be Gołąbki ;) ) today so if you customs will accept EU meat i can send you some:D

You are too kind my friend. Luckily the city I just moved to has a large Polish population so it shouldn't be hard to get authentic stuff (it was so good to hear Polish spoken again, reminded me of visiting my Babcia!)

Now I have to go over and get some after work...

But back on topic....

WHERE'S MY BOAT?!?!

Either they're waiting for store championships to end or they have to wait for something to kick in with the Asmodee distribution system and Wave 8 has to fall under that.

The bridge had an accident...

I think the Asmodee is a big part of it. I know the coolstuff preorders are more expensive than the comparable ships in stock at their retail location, standard size small ships being ~$2 cheaper than the TAP preorder.

America was founded by all of the intolerant pricks that got kick out of the rest of the world. So everyone that matters knows loki_tbc is right on this one.

They did a preview of Worlds of Android today saying it's on its way to retailers now. It was on the boat on 11/3 and still shows as on the boat. Rebellion was on the boat on 1/28 and has been officially announced as a 3/31 release. Wave 8 was on the boat on 12/16 so based on those other two products sandwiched around it it's safe to say that Wave 8 will be in our hands by late May.

I was just screwing around but honestly in today's political climate over here Intolerance TRUMPS all (apparently).

As far as the timeframe goes....it's getting to the point where the opportunity cost of the pre-order from CSI is more than I'm willing to accept. I bought 2 of everything and 3 of the smaller ships. No reason to keep that money tied up for another month or two (not with so much other crap I'd rather buy now...)

America are two different continents. USA is a country.

Caine, when I say "blah blah blah AMERICANS blah blah blah" does your mind immediately go to South or Central Americans? Does it go to Canadians? No...didn't think so.

No one else's does either.

;)

Either they're waiting for store championships to end or they have to wait for something to kick in with the Asmodee distribution system and Wave 8 has to fall under that.

One or both of these is my thinking too.

If they hold up Waves to get the new price thing going I am going to be angry for real.

Don't let me down FFG!

;)
