Hello everyone, long time no see! recently bought netrunner and now I'm hooked. Just wanted to ask about the latest new for IA. I've heard about the Bespin set but not much else.
Whats going on with IA?
Today details were released on the new ally pack for Lando. Earlier this week we got some details on the Heroes from the new Bespin Expansio. Nearest guess is that they're going to be released in the summer, probably August.

I'm not sure how long it's been for you, but there was some very significant errata after Worlds in November.

Lots of content out for the game including 2 boxed expansions and yes Bespin is coming in the next few months. Maybe a soft release at GenCon alongside a new announcement and then a full release in September like last year with Twin Shadows Abba Return to Hoth
It's actually only been a month or two, but thanks for all the info anyway. Now I know about Bespin and Wave 5(?).
I sure hope it isn't September before we get Bespin. Over in this thread, tomkat364 noted it has typically been around 2 months from the time an Imperial Assault wave is listed as "on the boat" and the time consumers get it. If that continues, we're probably looking at July.
As far as what's going on with IA, to me the big thing is the growth of skirmish. It has really increased at the game shop I go to in the last six months or so. Before Return to Hoth hit shelves, skirmish was virtually nonexistant at the store, but since January they have had three tournaments with an average of 8 players, and they recently set Mondays as casual skirmish night.
