Article Predictions. Mostly General Discussion. But there's definately some Predictions scattered throughout.

By Drasnighta, in Star Wars: Armada

The pre-painted thing is no excuse. X-wing models are pre-painted right? I'm pretty sure they have announced 2 or more waves AND released them AFTER the announcement of CC and wave V... Heroe's of the resistance comes to mind... (disclaimer: I did 0 fact checking on that statement, feel free to prove me wrong lol)

I pre-did it.

The only thing that was announced and released was covered by my own caveat - in the fact that that the U-Wing and TIE-Striker had to make market Before Rogue One.

It had absolute Priority.

Was Heroes really announced before CC or wave V?

I was under the impression that they are using Triremes powered by slaves. As they are highly illegal the captain is the only one rowing...

[...]the U-Wing, and TIE-Striker for X-Wing just hit "Shipping now" in the past 10 minutes.

Agreed. They seem to have split up Wave X into Rogue One and non-Rogue One. The Rogue One expansions were put on a different trireme; the one where the slaves are fed on gruel and Velveeta, and given an extra round of motivational beatings.

The other stuff is on Jondavies72's slow boat through Cuba.

Didn't you get the memo since the last election? Slavery's back on the menu, boys!

MUCH before.

U-Wing/TIE Striker Announce: September 2
Wave 10: 5th of August
Wave 5: 5th of August
DOOM Announce: 28th of July
Baron Munchausen Announce: 27th of July
Corellian Conflict Announce: 22nd of July(Same day as Fleet Commander Competition Winner announced)
Heroes of the Resistance Annaounce: 4th of May

So what I see from that is they are announcing stuff to early

So what I see from that is they are announcing stuff to early

Too early for what?

Too early for our expectations of when the development cycle should culminate.

There's the Munchausen Article

Get a Handle on your Expectations then... Because if that's what's at fault... :D

Come, Join the Peace of the Light.... Patience conquers all Aggression...

Here's the Hard News for us in Calgary...

The 22nd is the Hard-Cutoff Delivery Date for CC / Wave 5 to be Legal for our Regionals - BUT THIS ALSO APPLIES TO THE FFG CENTER REGIONALS....

Which would mean "Shipping Now" would have to happen THIS WEEK on CC/Wave 5 for either of them to be Legal...

Because that would mean a DECEMBER 22nd IN-STORE DATE....

...

If it doesn't happen by THIS TIME NEXT WEEK... There will be no Armada Christmas.

YOU HEAR THAT, PEOPLE.....

I AM RUINING CHRISTMAS.

YOU HEAR THAT, PEOPLE.....

I AM RUINING CHRISTMAS.

Stop forcing your holiday spirit on us.

My Holiday Spirit is a Dreadwraith... What's your excuse?

Thanks Dras now Christmas and Armada are dead.

"Insert politically charged comment about pagan holidays"

Also, just because the wave isn't legal doesn't mean it won't be here for the holidays, or the holidays are ruined because Armada shows up late.

Thanks Dras now Christmas and Armada are dead.

Give it 1d4+1 Turns. It'll be Undead shortly.

I'm just not a holiday sort, really... I mean, its not like I get time off anyway... :D

It was more of a reaction to a PM I got...

Hey, someone's going to ruin Christmas. Might as well be me :D

Baron von machausenson ... whaaaaaaaat?????

This thread has gone through far worse than an implied trolling attempt to get this locked. I'm very conscious of my language so it comes off as light-hearted enough so people won't be offended, but still serious/amusing people will chuckle when they read it.

Less that more of they're preemptively locking political threads right now.

Back on track, they certainly went all out in writing the Munchausen article.

Man. What's with the Quotey-quotes?

I liked the Munchausen Article. Made me Giggle.

Plus, it was a correct prediction on my part - and those are very few and far between :D

I don't even know what's wrong with the quotes there...

I'm surprised you both did it. Typically it only happens once. Did you post from your phone?
