How's come we don't have a Scurrg H-6 Bomber in x-wing?

By fistfulofforce, in X-Wing Off-Topic

I noticed tonight while playing armada we have all the rogues and villains ships but not this one, so why don't we have it for x-wing? I was just curious. Seems weird they would do all the others but not this one which is pleasing to the eye and would make for another nice scum ship "Havoc". Thought I would get your thoughts.

Yet...

Wave 10 is mostly movie (Rogue 1, more prominent ships from Episode VII and ofc Rebels) stuff. Wave 9 was arc-lasers stuff. After Jumpmasters my guess in FFG is really paying attention to large scum ordnance carriers and large scums in general. And if it would be rebellion ship - i think ARC , HoR and Tie patches up rebels holes better thatn it would cause it would have to be either:

-command ship: no thanks, rebels got plenty of those alredy.

-ordnance ship: also miss. They got Kwing already that is hands down best ordnance carrier in game now.

It just didn't fit with rules for now i guess. Wave 11 stuff i presume as wave 12 gonna be Episode VIII stuff.

Wav XI will be anougher bomber heavy wave with the gunboat. Don't worry. It'll happen.

Because most people would probably have to look up what ship it actually is. And then have to look up what game it came from.

And after all that, it's prequel era. Everything else is Rebels and later.

Disney is pushing away from anything having to do with the EU, and FFG needs that contract more than Ultramarines need tgeir plot armor.

Yes, everything needs to be greenlit by Lucasfilm, but FFG clinging to new screen released ships is beneficial in itself because these ships have hype going for them right now and therefor open new markets. They also make great source material for gameplay mechanics since they do specific things, but don't have every aspect of them spelled out into the tiniest of detail like those ships that were created for more or less obscure reasons and then perpetuated in RPG books and technical manuals.

Tbh the "Disney hates EU stuff" agenda is getting a bit ridiculous with the Defender finally getting an actual screen release and all that.

We are going to now, but small base.

Heheheh :D Im gonna go play a lottery tonight :D

the scale of xwing between the "large ships" must be off more than i thought.

Obviously the scale is warped between the regular fighters and "large" ships, since an xwing is almost as large as the YT1300 in that game. But i always thought the Scurrg was the same size as the YT2400...clearly its even smaller since its actually fitting on the small base decently well (yet another complaint about why the uwing is a large base...)

I'm just going to think positive that we are getting one.
