Am I crazy, or did they change the formatting in the 2e product page details so that ships aren't listed in waves anymore? I could have sworn that it listed Wave 1 last time I looked, and now it's Galactic Empire Expansions, Rebel Alliance Expansions, Scum and Villainy Expansions...
Carolina Krayts is the best X-Wing podcast

No, you're right - they did change that. Hmm...

Non-wave based release model confirmed?
Is that a bad thing?
A good thing?

That is correct. Probably to reflect that they're trying to fix the game so that you don't need to buy other factions' stuff to get all the cards if you play mono-faction

Is he though? He's no longer immune and can't boost away. Does a medium base CBR get you out of bomb range?

Actually, it's set up the same way as Legion's product page. I would guess that they're scrapping the wave-based model because they have a massive backlog of content (i.e., plenty of ships to re-release). Waves are great because you can consolidate your variable costs around shipping, but they're also slow because you need everything to be ready before you can send it out.
Interesting thing to note regarding asteroids. You no longer have to be overlapping them to not get a shot, just be range 0 which is defined as touching. But you only skip your perform action step if you overlap. So you can technically rub an obstacle, still get your action since you didn't overlap it, but not get to shoot since you're at R0 of it.
There will be no fights about this at all
Hmm... the Lando's Falcon announcement was the last article to reference Wave I of Second Edition. The previews since then just mention it releasing along side the core set.

Or they have the quick compromise for too-close-to-call.
Found the error (I think)... page 4, there are no ships on the play area in the figures, just white boxes. Quick, someone post a new thread with some REEEEEEEEing about lack of proofreading!!

And it's SKU SWZ04, with the core set being SWZ01...and no SWZ02 or SWZ03 listed. I usually don't get anywhere close to this deep in the weeds on this kind of stuff...but what are those other two SKUs? Playmats?
