Cards reprint

By AlessandroD, in X-Wing

Hello all,

maybe this question has already been addressed but I don't have found anything with the "Search" function.

Is there any chance to have the all the errata cards reprinted? Something like this site where you can download a pdf or ask for a on demand printing.

I tried to check on the "X-Wing Mission Control Technical Support and Feedback Forum" thread but no lucky.

Maybe someone already has the answer.

Thanks

spelling

Yes. They get reprinted but it takes a while to filter through... The cloak rules with the Phantom being an example. Another is the heavy Scyk title that's reprinted with the extra hull coming with the new scum epic.

edit: no they don't make them available for download/print though

Thanks LagJanson, therefore the normal process is to add the reprinted card(s) in the next expansions, is it right?

Or in copies of current expansions that are created after the change takes place.

Thanks to both!

This topic comes up from time to time and I have posted the same query myself.

I wonder if it is a FFG thing or a Disney contract thing. If something is Errata I do not know why they do not print an errata pack that they sell via their own store. Even including it in future production runs is a problem because how do you know your local store or online retailer has the latest and greatest?

For example, print a new rev of the rules and include the revised cards and bundle everything together with some acrylic official FFG tokens to bump up the cost to make it worth their while to make a print run.

Surely I will be one the potential buyers given that I'm a new player, maybe they know that most of the X-Wing players are collectors and buy everything (and sometimes more copies for every expansion :D)

There is no urgent need to reprint cards that have received errata (which is a plural word, by the way). The uncorrected cards can be used in play and in some cases the errata are blatantly obvious - is there really anyone who played the old version of Lone Wolf strictly as written?

You could always make your own errata deck. While you are at it, throw some alternate art on them and a custom back. Sleeve them with the legit card if you play competitively.

I've never gotten cards printed but there are several local players that do. There are several companies that do a nice job at a relatively low price.

I know many people who just print out images of their squadron and upgrade cards on a sheet or 2 of paper just to save wear and tear on their deck and to keep things from getting too cluttered on the table. A simple X through used or destroyed cards denotes them as out of play and the most up to date rules are sure to be printed on them.
