But srsly how long do we have to wait now for the Wave XII wave? I need new shinies to complain about.
Who else is enjoying their new wave XI stuff?
bah store didnt get them a day early this time so now i gotta wait until after work today ![]()
Usually buy my stuff off eBay only one store is selling them and they want full price plus $4 in shipping. Waiting to see if any of the local stores post them for sale...

I may never buy one of those. Just not an interesting ship at all.
Anybody in Canada have wave XI yet? Wondering if a trip to the shop tonight is wasted effort - there was a lot of uncertainty there on Tuesday.
Got my Aggressor this morning and I must say its rather a nice model.
Very sleek and got some great detail on there, can't wait to get it repainted !

That's the only ship I'm buying today.

I get that, for me though being a Rebel only player it doesn't leave me with a lot of choice for new plastic crack!
Yes I know about Rebel Nym but I can't afford a ship for one pilot at the moment.
I'm getting an Aggressor from a great friend as a gift, but I'm not sure when it will arrive (mail ordered). But the ships this wave just don't excite me and I don't think they are very Star-Warsy save the TLT bone that FFG is throwing the Imps for the, "hey, sorry you didn't have a stupid TLT back waves ago like everyone else, so here, idiots." Yeah, I'm salty over their lack of design ability in the Imperial realm....cast offs. Junk.
However, I'm thinking the H-6 is definitely the best of the bunch and will be borderline OP flying with Miranda/Sabine or Dengar or Protectorates; d***, what is FFG thinking?1?! ....with missiles and bombs; playable immediately, while giving Jumpmasters another trick to create bad games for their typical victims. I guess some of the upgrades might assist the Imps in Epic, maybe.
Just got mine (1 of each) here in the UK today off ebay.
I thought all the small expansion packs were physically the same size, but the Scurrg pack is physically larger than the other two.

Some are larger, like the Starviper, K-wing, TIE/it, Mist Hunter, ARc-170, and H-6.

That explains why I never saw this before. I don't have any of those other ships.
Yeh, I know. I don't own a K-wing.
[Nun Unella rings a bell] "Shame!" "Shame!"
i think all of the 20USD boxes are larger than usual.
Theyre also, for the most part, ships that really should be medium bases.
Nuts. Wasted trip after all. My store didn't have any.
Speaking of price, I just realized that this is the cheapest wave ffg has ever released for xwing (if you count original core as part of wave 1).
Only $50 msrp for all 3 ships. All other waves have been $60 or more.
It sold out at both of my local stores before I could get there today. Lots of people scooping them up for the weekend championships.
Absolutely pissed. The store I usually buy from sold off the ships I had pre-ordered... and right in front of me. Get to the desk, guy in front of me is like "Oh, you have anything new for X-Wing?" "Oh, yeah, new stuff just came out, but all we have left are pre-ordered... but, screw it, you're a regular" Goes in back, comes around holding my pull box (it's a comic shop), pulls out the 5 ships from it, sells them and puts my box back. Dude walks out the store.
"Oh, hey, what can I do for you?"
"Give me a full refund and cancel all my holds."
"Uh... why?"
"Was that box 470?"
"Yeah, why.... oh. Crap."
Came home, over paid for them online. Screw it. I get them Tuesday, but I didn't give my money to that comic store. I'll call it a win. -starts up comic subscription online-

That's terrible. Why even offer pre-orders and hold boxes if you're willing to do something like that? They deserve to lose business.
Edited by pkreynoldsIt's insane. His staff are amazing, on point people. Him? He LOSES business and clients all the time. Whatever, I'm moving soon anyway, so I would've had to stop going there anyway...
Yes
Everything looks great. Wookie gunship is interesting to me especially if you dont use it like another biggs.
Scurg has lots of options and is dual faction. I feel like it is a little OP though. Im interested to see how a scum scurg list with minefield mapper will fair.
For example for 72 points you can get this:
Captain Nym
Cluster mines x2
Extra munitions
Havoc
minefield mapper
Karthakk Pirate
Cluster Mines
Extra munitions
Cad Bane
Thats a lot of evades for da boys thanks to Nyms ability. And those bombs should be potent from Cad
Agressor looks cool but is a pretty boring expansion.
My main complaint about the whole expansions is that the pegs for all 3 blisters were warped. None of them fit into each other. Not a biggy tho i got extras.

I wasnt too excited for it either, but putting it on the table and just seeing that small 180 arc is glorious. Not many places Miranda can go where this thing cant shoot her. That 2 sharp turn on a small base with 180 arc is quite powerful. Add a b-roll or boost and blind spots are ridiculously tiny.
