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

That was actually my thought as well when I read about that event. But it doesn't actually limit that from happening again, since it doesn't say anything about limiting non spectator comments right?

Correct, which makes it very odd indeed.

fantastic, happy for the guys over there, and for me getting Thrawn ?

I have a year to paint all the Spectres now... I said when they came I’d have them all done for my sons birthday - but with his 5th in June there will just not be enough time.... so 6th birthday it will be!

You can just admit that your sheet is alternating “armada is dead” and “x-wing is dead” squares.

You get bingo every week. Admit it.

Until today I would have agreed with Imperial Assault, but they got a new lease on life.

We probably haven't got an announcement as they are saving it for this "Hyperspace Report" at Worlds.

If this is the "Something Big" they've been hinting at for a while, it makes sense that they aren't putting out an article yet.

They don't want to spoil the surprise.

It wasn’t so much the catching but the way they were officially involving...

fir example, in the big cheat case, the guy had been drawn quartered and had effigies burned before he’d even talked to a judge.

... I mean, I’m pretty hardcore about rules and despise cheating, but even then, there are rules about rules and mob law cannot stand.

but know for example, even if you are not a legal spectator, what you say and do on FFGs online platforms can get you banned from real events.

The cheater had to delete his facebook page and even had people that found his phone number and were harassing him. I didn't hear about the recent Gold Squad one, is that the one that involved the brothers playing each other? A missed opportunity is not on the same level of actively cheating IMO.

LOL. A lot of the IA guys are saying it is now dead with this last announcement.

I do agree that we're not getting any info on Armada until worlds at earliest, I'll be blown away if we don't get it there. I honestly think they pushed the thrawn announcement forward because of the leak, we've actually seen FFG do that before when leaks happen and it's a trait they're picking up from GW that I actually support; it seems like anytime someone leaks something GW related the company is just like "well, i guess the cats out of the bag, better to let us get the correct info out to stem the misinfo". I honestly think it builds more hype when they do so.

Wow, didn't notice that was the final pack coming out. It surprises me they were that upfront about killing it, though it was a bit weird that they were running 2 separate star wars CCG's.

Yeah, when they announced the pack, they announced it as the last one: https://www.fantasyflightgames.com/en/news/2018/1/10/promise-of-power-1/

Quote

In addition to being the final Force Pack of the Alliances cycle, Promise of Power marks the completion of Star Wars: The Card Game. Over the past five years, Star Wars: The Card Game has seen five deluxe expansions and six cycles of Force Packs, ranging from the Battle of Hoth, through the pilots of the Rogue Squadron cycle, the forest battles of the Endor cycle, and the most recent changes of the Opposition and Alliances cycle. With the conclusion of the Alliances cycle, the game will be complete, and the Star Wars World Championships in May will be the final Organized Play World Championship for the game.

So they are going to continue OP kits for it, but this is the last World Champs....
