B-Wings, Barrage Rockets, Vader Crew, Soontir, Guri, and the Bomb Rule Changes are all going to have immediate impacts on the game.
Jedi might be outlier good enough to be solid in any format ( I'm pretty sure Jedi are just every Ace put into a blender, there is not a single thing they can't do besides 1 forward ).
Separatists in my initial testing are absolutely built to joust and history shows us that things that joust get jousted in swiss. Only issue is that Aces lists can for the most part kinda also joust now so.... 🤔

Got a legend to go with that acronym stream?? Some of them I can make out but BBH, XXH, XBH, XUH Rebel side (namely the H, Heff?) and allot of the others are fairly hard to decipher.

Legend = "Best" ship or pilot that starts with that Letter
Its the the fact that the letter can represent either or that makes it difficult but you can figure it out I believe in you.

That new B-wing model... I was in denial from article images, but seeing images from the con... swoon. I need 4 at least, for starters.

After all these positive news I'm really curious which group manages to salt the soup first and most sustainably.

Not to belabor the point but I think CIS should at least consider MDG.

So their justification boils down to "It would be ideal, but we can't actually do that for reasons, so we'll sprinkle in ships that are only available through conversion kits. Deal with it".

Funny how just a week ago there was panic&outrage, and hyperspace was going to turn into extended because interceptors and starvipers were added. And now we know for the first time that hyperspace will remain as 1) alternative 2) limited 3) rotational format.

Gosh, this list is hard work.....

I'm enjoying the puzzle.

Our second round of Hyperspace trials are polling locals about when to hold them as early as July, so they may be sooner than expected.

yeah, its almost like if they had told us all of this at the same time as announcing the changes they would have preempted most of the anger.

And doesn't change the fact it still feels super random to do mid-season.

It's apparently July - Nov. Originally they said Sept-Nov, so interesting it's a wider window (for all I know, all shifted just 3 months, and July- Sept, but the store said july-nov).

It’s year one of this new system. Expect mayhem... and I expect you already do

I did. It just sucks waiting on the sidelines for basically over a year until FFG can figure out how maps work.

August 17 for Atomic Empire. If the store is holding an event up to the month of Worlds, the invite will be for this year's worlds. If the event is held the same month as worlds, the winner will get to pick to use it this year or next.

Let me know what region and store name near you got a season 2 and I can try to find the date.

I'll send a PM, I have interest but more in the “please, tell me you didn’t get the kit you tell me you got!" kinda way

Is FFG organizing these over discord again? lol, where's the master list?

So there IS a reason I keep reading this thread.

The stores decide the dates.
