What's this about them dropping time periods?

By mazz0, in Star Wars: Imperial Assault

Can someone explain this to me? What's changed?

An agenda set or side mission without a time period can be included in any campaign.

Some people feel some missions should have time periods while FFG had chosen to not assign time periods to them.

I think enough has been said:

Yes, I saw the reaction, but I wasn't sure what they were reacting too. What would we have expected to have a time period that doesn't?

New figure packs

Obi-Wan, Inquisitor, Greedo, Lando, the previewed Jedi Knight Luke.

Honestly it's based on very little so the confusion is understandable. 3 figure packs were released without them, and it looks like the Jedi Luke mission is the upcoming jabba expansions doesn't have one (that's only based on preview images which are subject to change) and .... that's pretty much it. No official announcement, no big boxes saying it. Just those things.

So before you freak out like everyone else, might want to wait until the Jabba expansion just to be sure

Ah, I see. Thanks guys :)
