Do you think they'd release card-only upgrade packs? For whatever reason, it seems more likely for RW to do this, say over X-wing.

I can only see upgrade packs coming tied to something else. Either figure upgrades, like the Infantry Command Packs, or a campaign box, like Corellian Conflict for Armada.

The essentials box is an interesting phenomenon. It's necessary because they didn't want to make a second core box pairing Elves and Uthuk. It's got the dice and templates and tokens in there too so it's not just cards.

Essentials box was kinda needed since they did say they dont want to force people to buy out of faction. A second core so quick would make little sense, and forcing the player to buy a core for 2 factions they dont use just to get the cardboard crap would be a douchy move.

Course now it makes people want standalone armies for daqan/waiqar, and leads me to question why they didnt just do that to begin with. It would have hyked the price a bit for getting both races, but personally im the only one interested in this game in my area that can even afford out of army choices so i imagine a lot of people wouldnt mind.

Steakhouses primarily.

Yeah, theyre that kind of people. Bugs the hell out of me, i almost never eat steak because its so bloody expensive...one steak dinner could easily pay for like 6-10 meals for me on my own... i'm one of those rare guys that actually likes to cook and usually ends up making lunches for work ahead of time. Being able to get 4-5 meals out of 5USD is amazing, and im not talking ramen diet either. Budgetbytes ftw

Dont get me wrong, special occasions/dates i'll gladly shell out the bucks for a lavish meal. Not just because im hungry and no other reason.

Failing that, steakhouses are expensive and also boring, they bring nothing new to cuisine, and generally only do a mediocre steak to begin with. For steak house prices, a good bistro will trounce them. Sounds more like you have folks who want to think what they are eating is 'local' more than anything.
