With Vets just being released, and both Wave 9 and Heroes announced and on the way, should we expect new product announcements? Or does FFG have their fingers in enough pies right now for X-Wing?
Are we actually expecting an X-Wing product annoucement at SWCE, or is there too much in the pipeline right now?
Scum epic would always be nice and welcomed
I don't think they are having a presentation at Celebration. It is possible, but I think with Heroes and Wave IX, they will save anymore big announcements for Gencon.
I'm hoping for a Rogue One Core Set but I'm not holding my breath. They have a lot going on right now with one expansion just released and two on the horizon. A Scum Epic ship announcement would be cool too. Perhaps, Vets took so long because they're covertly working on something that'll be announced this weekend but, again, I doubt it.
Edited by weisguy119They will not spoil a Wave until the next Wave is released so we may get an Epic ship, and Ace box or something new and different.
Rebel Veterans? My preference, X and E wings
Scum Epic? Most likely, Jabba ship with Jabba crew
Scum Aces? Most needed Starviper and M-3A
Scum epic would always be nice and welcomed
IF anything, I'd put money on this.
FWIW, there are things we "know" it cannot be:
- Anything wave 10
- Rebel Veterans (for sure someday, but 'Heroes of the Resistance' is giving us a bunch of Rebel ships alongside wave 9, so...too soon)
A few things are still 'expected' for an undetermined future release that it might be:
- 'Rogue One' ships (IMHO, likely this is wave 10, so...odds are not good. But it might not be wave 10, so...)
- Scum Aces
- Scum Veterans
...I don't see any of these as likely as a Scum 'Epic' ship, though.
I'm hoping for a Rogue One Core Set but I'm not holding my breath. They have a lot going on right now with one expansion just released and two on the horizon. A Scum Epic ship announcement would be cool too. Perhaps, Vets took so long because they're covertly working on something that'll be announced this weekend but, again, I doubt it.
Im very skeptical that they are even working on a rogue one core set, TFA core set just came out last year. If they release a rogoue one core set then they are setting themselves up to do a new core set for every movie
Star Wars: X-Wing
a live action TV Show.

I agree, I dont' think there will be a Rouge One core set. Maybe wave 10 will be a Rouge One wave.... and would't the fanbois be happy if a certain imperial min-shuttle with a ton of missiles shows up in the movie.
It's possible that there's Rogue One content in heroes of the resistance, and that content could be spoiled.
well, I'd actually put money on scum stuff
might be epic; might be scum aces
simply because we have Veterans and Heroes AND Wave 9, but no dedicated scum release
It's possible that there's Rogue One content in heroes of the resistance, and that content could be spoiled.
There clearly isn't. And if it was Rogue One stuff, I doubt FFG would able to announce it.

Not true!
Between July 31, 2015 and August 13, 2015 we were waiting for: Wave 7, Imperial Raider, Imperial Assault Carrier, and Wave 8, all at the same time.
Between August 16 and September 25 of 2014 we were waiting for: Wave 5, Rebel Aces, and Wave 6 (including Most Wanted), at the same time
Between June 13 and June 26 of 2013 we waited for: Wave 4, Rebel Aces, and Wave 5 at the same time.
Right now we are a bit light, historically speaking, merely waiting for Wave 9 and Heroes of the Resistance. Note that the pile-ups occur around Gen Con.
We could easily add announcements for anything (Scum Epic, Scum Aces, or Wave 10) at Gen Con and not be setting any new records.
I don't think they are having a presentation at Celebration. It is possible, but I think with Heroes and Wave IX, they will save anymore big announcements for Gencon.
Ditto SB... they did not go crazy last year at the US Event, so nope at this UK Event.
So who are the other two x wing pilots?It's possible that there's Rogue One content in heroes of the resistance, and that content could be spoiled.
There clearly isn't. And if it was Rogue One stuff, I doubt FFG would able to announce it.
Secondly, the "Rogue" in "Rogue One" has nothing to do with the "Rogue" in "Rogue Squadron", as far as I understand. Thus, the new movie is not an obvious source for new starships in this miniatures game. I have seen the two pics floating around, of course.
Edited by evangerA new core set is possible. And it wouldn't necessarily mean one per movie, but rather one per era. I know that Rogue one almost overlaps the original trilogy, but from the trailer, it seems a lot of the tech is different.
I doubt they'd announce it this early though. It feels like something they'd spring almost last minute, as a surprise, probably at Disney's request.
I'm expecting only trailers for Rogue 1, Rebels Season 3, and lots and lots of Andi Gutierrez
First of all, they'd be T-70 pilots, right? So wrong era. To be fair, it could be a bit like Most Wanted, where cards in a pack don't match the ships in the pack, but I doubt it.So who are the other two x wing pilots?It's possible that there's Rogue One content in heroes of the resistance, and that content could be spoiled.

Know this is totally irrelevant to the topic, but I believe this is the first post I have ever seen from JBR7 that did not include an image, a smiley emote, an unnecessary use of capital letters, or purposeful "silly" speak.
I'm sure Joe will come back and reply to this to remind me nothing has changed in his demeanor though. ![]()

YUP...
Go Purple Star-Bimbo GOooo...
Rebel Vets, Scum Aces or a wave9 Rogue One tie in would all be plausible. But not Wave10.
No need for a core set. Just as Scum & Villainey (an entire new faction) was "only" introduces with a large box, so could Rogue One, which supposedly is just som fixes to ships we know and love.
The introduction of the TFA coreset coincided with a lot of fundamentals like tha damage deck they wanted to change, and Disney aquiring and rebooting SW anew, we are not in that situation now.

Yeah but I got back to posting properly right after your post; see my reply to Crabs!

i'd agree, if anything a scum epic or aces. Theyre due one and afaik they havnt had an out-of-wave release.
Rebels have HOTR
Imps just got Vets
Wave9 is coming.
I would be very surprised to see another Imp box so soon, HOTR is easily this era's rebel out of wave, and until wave9 comes i would be even more surprised to see wave10.
Technically an epic for imp/rebel would be possible but if they do then they are going to get a lot of flak. I dont even play scum...at all...and i want an epic scum because i have several scum friends (that sounds weird saying rofl) that like epic but have no big ships.
