So all of you that had stores claiming a November release what are they saying now?
The official line would normally swing to something like: "November 23rd is Pre-Order Cutoffs for Distributors"

Two GoT in one day. Lucky them.
I wouldn't be expecting CC to hit stores any time before mid-December ish.
I feel like they will be timing to ship the X-wing movie tie-in SKUs before the movie hits and likely CC and wave 5 for Armada will be with that shipment.
New Angelus Rules are ready to download!
... There are X-Wing Movie TIE-In Skus? Oh. Righ... Part of Wave 10.
That being said, Hast... That would put things On target....
And we'd be due for Articles Immedaitely...
You're scaring me, man.
Edited by DrasnightaYeah but in general, if you talk to your FLGS or even look at how many sold on Amazon or whatever, the newer X-wing stuff simply does not sell like it used to.
X-wing is still good, still has a large player base, but it's only natural that as the inevitable SKU growth gets crazy your new player uptake is going to decrease and maybe not keep up with people leaving the game.
Therefore, having rather obscure ships and adding more and more mechanics (with all the balancing issues it introduces across 10 waves and 3 factions) probably doesn't help the community in general, it almost starts to look like a reach, like they are scraping the bottom of the barrel.
At this point you almost expect them to do some sort of reset or something.
It's hard to say. I won't dispute your stats. Stuff still seems pretty popular in my community.
For my own sake, I don't have as much interest in the new stuff, but that's in large part because much of my attention has gone to Armada. Also, I only do (original) Empire, for which the pickings have been rather slim of late. It seems like it's still pretty fun for the Scum players, though.
Regarding the bottom of the barrel, I felt that way back in Wave 4, aside from the Z-95. I've never been a fan of the TIE Defender, and had never been previously aware of the Phantom or the E-wing. The Quadjumper at least comes from a movie source, rather than a computer game (or comic, or whatever).
I don't play X-Wing, but you know what?I don't even play X-Wing, but this indicates FFG is running out of ideas:
[...]
Seems like they just made this ship as filler:
[...]
That said, I don't play X-Wing. Maybe the ship is going to be good. But from the outside looking in, new X-Wing content looks really boring and bland. Like Sabines Tie or the new Falcon.
I do play X-Wing, and the Quadjumper looks like a fun addition to the game to me.
But, you know...

Maybe you didn't see that the first time, which I know you did because you edited my quote.
Whoah, there brother. Chill out. There's no need to go all 48pt bold font on me.
My apologies if my edit skewed the meaning of your post. I edited for brevity's sake only. It was late at night, and I was doing it on my phone.
I'd do 72 font but I can't...
New Angelus Rules are ready to download!
Kinda interested in this one.
Better luck next week.
I fully expect the FFG offices to be closed till next Monday.
have they ever released an article on a holiday?? wait, isn't thursday the holiday??
That is why there was no article today.
Weter or not there is one tomorrow is debatable too
C'mon tie defender article!!!
FFG HQ is probably closed today. As much as I want me some Armada news, I hope their employees are enjoying some good family time.
I am just enjoying the salty Xwing players posting about getting a campaign in their forums.

Oh yes, that's a good one. I've been in there adding my red cents. Also, in my local Facebook community, when the Corellian Conflict was announced for Armada, there was some salt on the X-Wing FB group.
Still, as I'm arguing in that thread, X-Wing communities seem to have some structural barriers to a campaign. Yet, that may be different in places where there are fewer players (ie. smaller towns).

Well, we can't exactly brag about it ourselves, given that we don't have it in hand yet...

That doesn't really matter.. The very fact it exists is causing them to end of distress...
I wonder if it would be even possible to have a campaign in Star Wars without capital ships though...

Of course it is.
Exhibit A: Heroes of the Aturi Cluster.

Does it, though? Right now it's Schroedinger's Campaign.

No, that would be if we were to be emperically testing its half-life and thus observing changing the observation.
Not the case at all.
This is a case of "It has been seen, it is there, it has been talked about, it has had articles." - Don't even have faith, just wait.
The X-Wing side has nothing.
Anyone wonder if the update on the 1/11/16 (i'm aussie sue me) was meant to be too shipping now? And so we are still on track for next week?

What do you mean?
Stuff is still on the boat. And likely to continue to be for some time.
