Idk. It's still on the boat. ???
Imperial Veterans June 23rd
There are some people posting from countries where English is not their primary language. I for one enjoy the multi-international aspect and could really care less if every word is spelt correctly or if proper grammar is used.
For example: Spelled vs. spelt
Just a bit of insight into an often used colloquialism; just something I see often and smile to myself.
When one employs that, they are usually saying they care so little they couldn't possibly care any less. That being the case, then the most proper usage is 'I couldn't care less'. In your above comment by saying "could really care less" clearly implies that you do in fact 'care'.
Think of it similar to a misused double negative; incorrectly applied it actually means the exact opposite of what is intended.
Just sayin'

That must be a really good siurce.

For example: Spelled vs. spelt
In American English, spelt primarily refers to the hardy wheat grown mostly in Europe, and the verb spell makes spelled in the past tense and as a past participle. In all other main varieties of English, spelt and spelled both work as the past tense and past participle of spell, at least where spell means to form words letter by letter or (with out) to make clear. Outside the U.S., the two forms are interchangeable in these uses, and both are common.
I never knew this and was taught either spelled or spelt was correct and I'm from the US. Does it really matter as long as you can understand the concept the writer is trying to convey? I know for a fact that I do not use perfect grammar when posting because it is suppose to be "talk amongst friends" verses a "college paper".
Regardless of it being spelled/spelt wrong, it is just funny 
I'm pretty sure "Arschbombe" is from Germany himself and so am I but I couldn't help but laugh out loud when I saw the witty remark of Arschbombe's post 
I grew up bilingual (dutch/german) and try not to make any mistakes in english but sometimes (probably very often actually) it happens and if people make fun of it, so be it. Let people have fun!
Aren't we here to play this spaceship game? and have fun? I just love this game so much and I hope OP is right and we get to feed our plastic crack addiction with the Imp Vet expansion very soon!
May the laughs be with you all
English is a pretty whacked up language. Only one i actually speak but i know enough about other languages to know mine is backwards and pronounces a lot of things uniquely depending on the word, not the letters. Or uses the same exact **** word for completely different things. Only time i ever give anyone any comment about bad english is when i literally cannot understand them (such as a few Korean people i had to deal with when i was stationed there. I swear they dipped into Korean when they spoke English to me lol).
also the siurce was probably a fatfinger. i and o are next to each other lol
nothing to add here.
I don't see where they have outlined exactly what the "Premier" level events would be but my guess would be Store Champs, Regionals, Nationals and Worlds.
It is written in the Tournament rulebook. Premier are Regionals and up

I used a word from a lost language from the Star Wars universe. Since the language is gone no one noes the origin. Yet siurce is known as source, and everyone knows.
I only play for fun these days and I am getting Imp Vets, Wave 9, Armada waves 3 and 4 for Christmas so Good to know it will be out before then.
Edited by CubanboyIt is interesting that Imperial veterans is still listed as on the boat, but the date has now changed. The date of the update was March 30, but now it has changed to June 9.
June 30th.
We got a message on the Twin Cities X-Wing Facebook page from a manager at the FFGC that there'll be a prize-heavy tournament/event on the evening of the 29th and that we'll want to be there.
have a great day!!!

It does not say anything about Regionals or any other tournament being Premier. Their twitter feed mentioned nationals and worlds as premier events.
For some reason lots of places have them but FFG are deliberately stopping them from being sold it seems?
It's common practice to release a set all at once, not when each vendor recieves it piecemeal. Can you imagine going to your gamestore to learn the other store across town got their products ahead of release day?
But I don't think it's common with x-wing is it?
Imperial veterans are available in France, I just need to pick up to my local store :-))) !
Thanks - I don't use twitter at all. I really wish their website was better organized and that they provided the info there properly.
It would be cool and useful if their social media people/person would do forum posts linking to relevant information.

Right? Maybe a sticky/locked "Announcement" thread that only the mods can add in. Keeps it near the top and whenever a new post is added it's highly visible.

You are wrong on your second attempt also.
I wasn't trying to be snarky though I think you took it that way and I have no idea what you're now taking about in your last two posts.
Simply put, you said that you could care less then repeated it in your next email. I agree that you said that, check my post, All I'm saying as a matter of ironic humor is that if you could care less then you do care. Most people who say 'I could care less' mean to say that they couldn't care less.
That's all. Sorry if I ruffled your feathers but I don't think I'm wrong even after reviewing it.
Take care, fly casual and have fun.

Time to watch Wolf's Rain again...

We can order it all right in Poland, since May, but the question is when can we actually pick it up?
Are you saying it is already possible in France or you are waiting just the rest of us, mere mortals.
