Missing SKU: Place your bets for what SWX58 will be!

By PaulTiberius, in X-Wing

It can only be the Ewok Glider.

New core with hoverbike and the ewok glider :P

My money is on an official Heroes of the Atuti Cluster Campaign box set, purchased from the original creator and polished and finalized.

(Yeah it's a long shot, but if I'm right it will be sooooo sweet!) ;)

I would buy that

I would buy this...

x wing 2.0 starter kit

Which, would likely consist if lots of card reprints, and maybe new dice IF x-wing went the route of Armada, Imperial Assault or the RPG lines, with multiple dice types.

I don't think this is very likely at this junction however, as it would be MAJOR news, and affect any upcoming releases shown. This all leaves me to believe it WILL be Rogue One Related, and we will find out next month.

Superior star Viper!

The wave x announcement article banner is off center, now some will say that's because of the size of the shuttle, but then you remember: most waves are four ships. The ghost expansion's attack shuttle gave the rebels one more ship than the Imperials. So maybe there's another Imperial ship coming, but which one?

To be fair, including all known (non-huge) releases Imps and Scum are tied at 14 ships to the Rebel 15.

I'm sure Force Friday will give us some Rogue One hotness that will closely coincide with Wave 10, but I'm betting these will be later SKUs and probably individual ships.

For the missing SKU, I'm putting my money down on Scum Epic or Aces/Vets/Whatevs.

You know the more I think about it the more convinced I am that it is going to be a Scum Epic ship with a Tansanarii Point Veteran M3A - Scyk.

Then it also dawns on me that it is another ship which is going to bring even more awesome, well costed scum crew, illicit and scum exclusive EPT to a faction that is boiling over with them.

Oh and the Scyk. Which I reckon is going to be fixed ala Defender (two titles) or potentially along the lines of Smuggler's Compartment whereby you take a -2 point mod which demands you equip the title and by doing so you get a hull upgrade and something else.

They might as well stuff in a Scyk and a Starviper fix into the epic Scum. Heck, why not a Kihraxz title, too? Maybe it's a ship about the size of the smaller epic and it has 3 small based ships?

On a more serious note. Rogue One campaign box would be nice. But big retailers probably won't take it in, x-wing is not that big yet, that a retailer would say there is enough critical mass of people already having a core at home and willing to buy an expansion at a big retailer.

What if it is a big box, x+u+striker+1-2 Tie/ln? Plus the core stuff with the NEW damage deck, and the uniques from the old core, discontinuing the old core?

It can only be the Ewok Glider.

"Spark of Rebellion"

A-Wing in Hera's colors

Pilots:

  • Hera Syndulla
  • Ahsoka Tano
  • Sabine Wren
  • Ezra Bridger
  • Ibaar
  • Dicer
  • Shara Bey
  • "Phoenix Squadron" generic (PS0! PS -1?)

Quarrie's B-Wing prototype

Pilots:

Upgrades

  • That super-laser thingy for the B-Wing. Dang!
  • Some kind of '/E2' mod for the A-Wing, given season 3 preview showing it as a two-seater
  • Ahsoka Tano as crew uprade
  • Jun Sato as crew upgrade
  • Chopper as astromech upgrade

And they should probably call it "Rebel Aces."

And they should probably call it "Rebel Aces."

have you seen phoenix squadron!?

"Rebel Jobbers" would be a more accurate description

and the expansion pack wouldn't contain any A-wings, just debris tokens and a Tie Advance with Vader in it

TIE Advanced with Vader standing on top

I think most everyone agrees that the U-wing (it's going to be awesome)/tie striker will be coming out sometime soon (probably with wave 10)

Rogue One also presents the perfect opportunity to revisit the T-65. There will be new new pilots and paint schemes from the movie instead of digging deeper in the EU. I believe FFG has been anticipating this moment to release the long awaited X-wing fix.

I'll vote for a Rogue One pack with the TIE Striker and U-Wing. But then I'll be sad.

Because

  • It'll throw off the balance of ships, forcing scum to still be 1 ship behind.
  • It'll mean we get overwhelmed with new pilots for these new ships once the blisters for individual U-Wing and TIE Strikers come out.
  • It won't be a ground game - which honestly, would be perfect to release for Rogue One since it seems to take place mostly on the ground, and the U-Wing would be the ideal Helicopter type unit for X-Wing.

No reason you can't do Rogue One for multiple systems

As for scum being a ship behind, eh the Quad's hilarious enough to carry the wave. Besides we're waiting on Most Wanted pt 2 (ie the viper K and s yk fix) and an epic anyway

Atmospheric expansion, maybe? One U-Wing + TIE Strikers?

If not that, some kind of new X-Wing or something. IDK.

Most Wanted 2: "Also Wanted" Or: "Still Most Wanted"

The Good, the Bad and the mildly competitive?

It'll be Scum Aces or Scum Epic, would be my guess. We might get a Rogue One release or two but they will come in SKUs after W10.

(It'll be called Wanted: Dead or Alive, and it will come with a USB stick with that Bon Jovi song on it)
