X-Wing and Armada releases have been teased there, in previous years.
Looks like Asmodee and FFG both have panel presentations scheduled today.
Anyone there, covering it?

I've always looked on Twitter for the FFG, Team Covenant and Dice Tower feeds during the bigger shows.
Don't tease me by telling me there might be a tease.
Pair A Dice games on Facebook asked if anyone was interested in them live streaming, so they might be.
What time is the panel for FFG?
Looks like 5-6 PST, Asmodee keynote at 2-3. So I'll have to hope for good news around midnight here in the UK ;).

anyone think wave 11 is likely?
Looks like The Dice Tower is streaming on Youtube. No idea if they'll be at the Asmodee or FFG panels, but...
Whilst I wouldn't count on anything, I'd love a R1 campaign announcement with some useful upgrades for the early wave ships.
Of course if it was announced, once the immediate euphoria died down the forums would immediately be aflame with threads worrying that the buffs are too strong/not strong enough, complaining about no Yoda crew, rehashing everything they don't like about the Armada campaign, telling heart-rending but unverifiable stories about how lack of Yoda crew killed their local X-wing scene, debating whether complaining about no Yoda crew is a balance or criticism issue...gotta be careful what you wish for.

I don't think they revealed anything last year but previously wave 7, I think it was, was initially shown at GAMA two years ago if my memory serves. I know something was at some point. So it's possible. That said, does FFG have a panel at Celebration? That's coming up in a month too and is also a possibility?
I'd expect they'd have models 'on the floor' at Celebration. We won't get that, here, but I do hope to see a slide or two previewing the next wave (for X-Wing and Armada)
The Dice Tower afternoon feed...
New Armada wave announced.

Along with boarding actions. Finally Armada has pulled ahead of Epic on something.


But for some reason, no Stormtroopers?

And we've got Hondo Ohnaka before X-Wing players.
Hah!
(Of course, that makes it pretty obvious that there never will be a 'Scum' faction for Armada, as if that wasn't pretty clear already, so...)

Yeah, they'll be lumped into one of two factions.
Also, any news about X-Wing or is it over?

The FFG presentation hasn't even started yet. The Armada news is from the front page (though in sure they will mention it) at the panel.
However, it seems unlikely we'll also get a new X-Wing announcement. I guess we'll see.
The panel starts at 5:00 PSD (about five minutes from now).

The panel where we got a new wave of x-wing announced a couple years ago had new waves of both x-wing and armada IIRC, so it's still possible we could get an x-wing announcement.
Is there a way to watch this online or something?
Pair A Dice Games facebook page is streaming it
Wave XI announced

Easiest is to search #GAMA2017 on Twitter and keep refreshing the latest posts.
Wave 11 announced! TIE Aggressor, Scurry H-6 (Rebel + Scum), Auzituck Gunship!
