when are we getting wave11?

By Blail Blerg, in X-Wing

I want my imperial tlts. =)

Going by previous releases, I imagine they'll be on sale at Gen Con (17-20 August), then general release 3-4 weeks later.

It's not even on the upcoming page yet, last I checked, so the gencon (early) release is currently looking plausible. I'm hoping they manage to make it a Gencon general release so that they can get wave 12 out before Christmas this year instead of after.

The C-ROC is on the boat now, so that will in 2-3 months scratch your plastic-itch... but not help you as an imperial player ofcourse.

Then again, I still feel there are so many upgrades and ships, I STILL haven't had time to test and try so I will be entertained for months...

Please people, let's take the time to find the shift key and capitalize TLT. It's just... better.

Honestly, with that line up of ships, who cares?

Here's hoping for a Rebel Veterans/Scum Aced announcement at Celebration, or it's going to be a really inexpensive year.

I think it'll be Thursday.

A lot of us did I think.

I would be perfectly ok with wave 11 being gencon and beyond. My wallet needs to recover from the time I spent since last fall going through waves 1-10. And I still need that croc for epic.

So the Math

6-8 weeks to boat from wave announcement

6-8 weeks to FFG warehouse

1-3 days to online/shops

So pad just a bit incase of customs or something stupid July 7 - July 28th

If this is the case wave 12 would be announced about late August/September for a Ep 8 tie in release.

If you go here on a non phone they lay out the time frame for the boat under the descriptions on the right hand side for status https://www.fantasyflightgames.com/en/upcoming/

I have in the past built a historical trend of waves based on the releases of ships but with new movies and movie ships being in waves (1 week before hand which is dec 1st if last Jedi is 8th) are going to be about the same timing which falls inline with a two wave a year thing. The Vets/Aces/large ships tend to be a lot faster to the boat (1-3 weeks less time) because it's normally two ships so it does not take long on the production side. Also the article says late in the second quarter of 2017! which means end of Aug/Sept.

And I want my Imperial ass too!

wait, wait, your lack of capitalization confuse me.

I'd settle for an Aggressor article that shows the dial since I'm a proxying online scum (not Vassal).

i believe they were mentioned Q2 this year...which means last bloody minute July before Q3 shows up.

Im not expecting to get Wave11 or the CROC until july-ish.

We'll get wave 11 right before wave 12. Relax. Patience.

Well, Asmodee seems to have shaken things up a lot with that.

- We're seeing so far that They expect Armada Wave 6 in Q2... And the timeframe was stupid-quick.

Announce March 14 - "In Development"

Status Change March 30 - "At the Printer"

Status Change April 11 - "On the Boat".

And Asmodee did mention in their panel that they're doing all they can to adhere to their listed timeframes.... Which are 4-6 weeks "on the boat", and then 2 weeks "Shipping Now", before they're available........

- Yes, we've been burned in the past. But hopefully this is the future and is different. As they intend.

Well considering we havn't had any of the spoiler articles where they go further into each expansion pack, It is going to be a while.

Perhaps after the C-ROC is out we will get those spoiler articles right before GenCon. However I forgot did Wave 9 have a gencon early-release?

Welp, at least we now have the much debated new name for the 4x Aggressor list...

I'm still curious why wave Xl has not shown up in the upcoming section yet. Anyone have any ideas?
