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

Typical Imperial bluster.

Come in and assume ownership of a thread by apparent fiat.

In fact, your very presence here shows you are willing to join with the Rebellion in the hope of articles and information.

You traitorous scum.

Welcome aboard.

You are definitely part of the Rebel Alliance and a traitor. Take him away!

And, yes, I must commandeer this thread. Like the Republic you wish to restore, your thread has grown old, disheveled and lacking purpose.

I AM HERE TO BRING A NEW ORDER!!!

At this point I think that Thrawn was the something big.

I don't think they literally meant something 'big' like an Executor or epic play.

I figure there will be another preview article once it starts printing, or at least when they admit that they have started printing.

Probably two more articles after that, once when it hits the boat, once when it starts shipping.

We’re going off the rails on a crazy train!

Im a Rebel.

Your new order means nothing here, out on the fringe . we’ll be needing something more substantial.

Mind tricks don't work on me.

Only Money.

Maybe the "big news" is the announcement is of a new star wars minis games called Star Wars: Fleets with all the ships we currently have just a couple millimeters bigger, plus the SSD and all the stupidly monstrous ships from the new movies.

But, I will not let myself take this thread off course.

I declare that we will get an article in December, and the 'something big' is the SSD!

Does that mean that you're actually an Imperial Assault player with sour grapes over Legion?

I love Imperial Assault, and am going to pick up Legion, but as far as sour grapes go only have them so far as in my mind it creates a precedent that FFG is willing to create games so similar to each other. I can't help but feel they are getting spread too thin, with too many large scale games in terms of coordination and manufacturing, and by adding more games so similar to existing games it is begin to waver my confidence in all of them.

I also don't think it makes any sense the larger scale game is the one to get the largest land based armor. IMO if they were going to create another Star Wars tabletop mini's game smaller was the right direction, not bigger. But then again, now I am in the territory of personal opinion and I know EXACTLY how much that is worth.

This is my background on my laptop. I look at it a lot and there are some things that bother me.

Assuming each SSD is 19km, each of those lasers are very very large. Like the size of a ship large. Those explosions on the hull are a few hundred meters in diameter. Meaning a few CR90s could fit inside of them. The Rebel paint on the SSD is around 0.8-1 km in diameter.

The fact that there's a Rebel symbol on it at all is disturbing.

Also, it looks like its butt is sticking up.

Do we know that the SSD is still 19km in nucanon?

I know there used to be a debate between 8k and 19k

One is a dungeon crawler board game with some hero cheeses rolled in. The other is a tabletop miniature hobby. They are not even the same genre....... I don't know what else to do other than draw a ven diagram.

Complately missed my point. My complaint is FFG overreaching their staff and manufacturing capabilities and the fact that I would have liked to ATAT's at a slightly smaller scale. Neither of those issues would be on your ven diagram of differences between the two.

I thought this was created before Disney took over. Not sure on the length but I go with 19km because it's what is used to be.
