Migration to Asmodee.net. ..?

By Rinzler in a Tie, in X-Wing

Can someone tell me, in layman's terms, what this means for us forum dwellers?

Will there be any changes to the GUI or is this all back-end? Sounds to me like this is just moving our user accounts to another server.

Thanks - so very little change

Asmodee is Evil Empire. The last 3 months in America shows us the crushing reality that the BAD guys do in fact win.

Asmodee has sure helped the FFG supply chain.... Not! :angry:

Join me, and together we will rule the forums...

Hmmmmmmm well from a legal stand point this forum will them come under French law instead of American so as of next week these things will change

  • World champs will be held in Paris
  • Waves printed in French will be distributed 3 months before other languages
  • The Foreign legion will be responsive for TO and Judging out side France
  • Baguette with cheese, Onion soup and red wine will be the new official tournament menu
  • Liberté, égalitié, fraternité will replace Fly casual
  • All new FAQ's will be in French
  • As of wave 11 the game shall be renamed Aile-X

Carrie fisher put in the effort so can you

ohhhh and some other changes you will have to get used too

  • "Jabba Le Forestier" (Jabba the Woodsman) in the original French version of the film
  • "Le Millénium Condor", but that name has since been dropped too and the Faucon Millénium
  • Given the French difficulty with pronouncing the letter H, Han Solo was given a name change and became Yan Solo
  • C3PO became Z-6PO, possibly because "C3" when pronounced in French sounds a little bit too much like "C'est toi" - "It's you"
  • The "Chew" sound is another tough one for the French so the film's famous furry fighter was renamed "Chiktabba" or "Chico" for short.
  • Darth Vader was "Dark Vador" on French screens
  • Luke Skywaker was Luc Courleciel ("Run the Sky") in the original film

C'est magnifique. Mais ce n'est pas Guerre des Etoiles.

Holy aesthetic changes...

"For most users very little will change"

Holy bull**** they made the forum look like ish.

Condense it, ffs... Don't they QA these things?

Is there no signatures anymore? This makes me sad.

Also apparently I managed to get a custom picture before the site went down for maintenance again earlier.

Well, I know what I need to tweak and play around with this morning...

EDIT: Well...crap. No signatures at all. I thought I just had to add them back again. Dang, this stinks.

And for the official tournament menu, aligot and cassoulet are also legal alternative to the onion soup.
