Just trying to help everyone out...lol!

Dangit people... quit bombarding me with Armada! I already have an addiction. I don't need to compound the problem! I don't have the defense against the dark arts like I do against Imperial Assault (aka... I have a huge painting project before I could begin painting these, so it makes me not want to buy them yet... well, and my wife would end my X-Wing addiction until I painted her Zombicide zombies... ). At least there are new ships I still have yet to buy... it is my last knotted rope...

I'm never caught up on my podcasts - I seem to keep finding new ones and their backlogs take up lots of my time lol.

Downloading now, thanks!

Downloading. can't wait to hear what you have to say about the yv-666. It's my go to ship/ list

Am I really still a very special guest?

Also, sorry about not sticking around for the YV-666 discussion (my opinion: it's an underrated ship that should be played more), but work was kicking my butt and I was feeling a cold coming on.

Yes Paul. You are still very special. And humble. And a great ambassador for the game.

We love you .Thank you for Boba

yes paul, thank you for giving Imperial a reason to use Draw their fire.

Can't wait to listen. I've always loved the YV-666!

Newbie corner? Please tell me that's a tongue in cheek and temporary name for the segment until next episode when you have something more respectable to call it.

I think your staus makes you a very special guest yes., Not that I mind the weekly visits at ALL!

It it yes. What I am trying to do is appeal to both the grizzled competitive veteran looking to improve their game with the latest tricks and combos and killer lists out there, and try to teach our ever expanding X-Wing community and help the newer player learn the game competitively.

I hope I am acomplishing that with these segments.

Pheaver is like Steve Martin on SNL in the 70s and 80s, he's on so much you didn't know he wasn't a cast member, and you always like the episodes he was in.

I wonder if pheaver can play a mean banjo too?

If we listen to all the Paul Heaver segments, does that make us "Belheavers"? I guess I'm guilty...

Being more welcoming and encouraging to the newer players is to me the single greatest possible upgrade to the show. Good call.

It's just.....I mean...but...." Noobje corner "....sigh.

I'm trying to think of a different name for it. Something....less...er.derogatory regarding newer people.

Uhm...

The Academy-focusing on standardised issues like deployment,initiative,rock placement, opening engagements, endgame..etc etc.

" All wings report in"- an interview with a different new player each episode to answer basic questions or briefly address their list choices.

Red 11 standing by- who was red 11 anyways?? The idea fits with talking to the newer fella you have had on the last couple shows.

Just....something else... But noobie corner....oof.that's gotta go.

I wonder if pheaver can play a mean banjo too?

i hear talk the song dueling banjos was based on a duel between PHeaver and Doug Kinney

If only those two had played this game that long ago...
