X-wing pilots, it’s the Mynock Squadron Podcast XXX: Wave 9 and Wave 10 preview blowout!

Fantasy Flight Games held back a few choice snippets about Wave 9, such as maneuver dials and certain upgrade cards. However, they launched them into the wild with limited prerelease sales at GenCon, and we now know the precise contents of each ship in this wave. We break down the previously unknown details about the ARC-170, Mandalorian Concord Dawn Protectorate Fang Fighter, and Lancer-class Pursuit Craft.

To tantalize us even further, FFG also dropped the first Wave 10 preview, announcing Sabine’s TIE Fighter (a Rebel hijacked TIE), the Upsilon-class Shuttle (Kylo Ren’s whip), and the Quadjumper (the tugboat Rey wanted to grand theft instead of the Falcon). We discuss the revealed content, and attempt to decipher the mystery items from the preview photo and clues in the article. (Dee’s eyes melted staring at a zoom enlarged copy of the photo.)

Finally, we fangasm at the new Rogue One trailer! We intend on tightening up moving forward, but this is a longer episode to deal with all of the news just dropped on us – enjoy!

Fly Better!

Great show!

I think we might actually see wave 10 in stores on schedule, for two reasons.

1: A coordinated release with Rogue One would be ideal for them (especially if there is a certain alphabet ship and TIE that have not been announced as part of the wave, the way the T70 and TIE/FO weren't announced with the rest of their wave). This also pleases the overlords at Disney.

2: Wave 9 is probably coming out on time! The projected release date was "late in the third quarter" of 2016. That gives them about 6 weeks to get the wave fully released, which I think they probably can do given the pre-release at Gencon recently.
