At this point I think something may be wrong with the wave 6 stuff.

Not enough dakka in the flak buff, probably. The whole wave is off for a refit.

Can they receive a shipment and then make up a card at ffg and insert/swap into expansions??? Maybe they are tweaking something?

Not unless they want to break down every shipment, open the shrink on every pack, carefully open every single box and zip-loc bag, then explain to all the customers why there's no shrink wrap protecting any of the boxes, and hope that nobody takes it as an opportunity to straight steal cards/models from the box, because there is no way they'd be able to shrink all of them at the point of breakdown, not to mention the effort of reboxing everything for shipping again.

Also, run-on sentence is running on. My better half is a proof reader and copy editor. She'd murder me for writing that. She's threatened bodily harm over much less.

I used to part-own an industrial shrink-wrap machine.

Best $150 investment I ever made.

What'd you do with it?

Man cannot be trusted with that kind of power is my guess.

Huh? What, did he re-wrap packaging? Make his own?

When I was in high school we shrink wrapped a friends house when they were in bed. Good times.

I'd think more along the lines of what didn't get shrink wrapped would be a shorter list. We know Dras has procreated, ergo he likely has a partner, and partners may not appreciate such shenanigans.

Edit: @fistfulofforce gets it.

My father hosted a Software company under his Computer store, and we were most often shrink-wrapping software packages with "you open it you agree" terms and such on the outside...

Most of the time.

The rest of thet ime, sure, totally can't be trusted with that power.

I'm still confused. . . I grasp that it is useful, but I'm not sure how or for what.

Lets say you show up for work tomorrow. Your monitor, pc, keyboard, mouse, and every individual cord and cable has now been individually shrink wrapped.

Ah, I see. I think. . . that adds protection right? Just making sure it's not a 'prank' that makes in inaccessible. . . it's like lamination for books, right?

If so, then yep, that's nice. Still don't quite get why that's considered abuse of power, but yeah, that's nice.

There was a period of time where I could take Computer games off the shelf, play them for a week or so (if they didn't have copy protection or CD codes or such), and then re-wrap and return them "unused".

But such as the life of a nerdy delinquent...

Well, it is Thursday, and they're all Available Now, so, it might be suddenly, but its hardly unexpected

Definitely not unexpected. I've just been checking the News page all day and there was nothing, then suddenly RUNEWARS. It went from the same page as yesterday to HOLY **** new things.....aaaaaand nothing I care to read. Don't tell Madaghmire that I don't care about Runewars.

Click on front page. Picture of Thrawn pops up.

Could it be!? Could it be!?

Star Wars Destiny

Disappointed!

It would make more sense for an Armada article to have a picture of a ship in the article thumbnail than a character picture.

Guys, sorry, if you didn't see the release date prediction thread, I have it on very very good information that June is not going to happen. In fact third or 4th week of July for release is not off the table, second week is optimistic and first week would be a happy miracle.

More than likely... still... that picture would look great on a commander card.

There aren't enough Runewarnings in the country for this.

Dude,

Couldn't you have just allowed us to live in blissful ignorance for just a little longer?

I did preface that whole thing with a "Sorry"

And I didn't even mention how my source was of the opinion that August was not an unreasonable possibility...
