Those aren't even questions, they're just a paragraph of whining with a question mark tacked on at the end.

Antigrapist's 'question' is even more egregious and goes from whining to just being a jerk.

If you want actually useful or interesting answers ask questions that are:

A - Actually design and development related questions. Not Organized Play questions, not Marketing questions, but questions about design and development choices. Aim for questions about the design process or about the intent/process behind choices, discoveries or surprises that came up during development, etc.

B - Not framed as vague or accusatory questions tacked on to insults and complaints. If you want to know why the Luke Skywalker Gunner upgrade does what it does, ask that without all the angry window-dressing. "What was the design and/or iteration process like for the Luke Skywalker upgrade?" is super easy to ask.

C - That actually stand some chance of being answerable. Don't ask about cards that haven't been officially shown yet. Don't ask about unannounced release dates or prices. All you will get - if they bother answering at all - is "we can't say right now".

Ironically, The Luke example for B violates C since he hasn't been shown officially yet

Also, imagine if there's a card or pilot ability down the line that can remove an opponent's charges. Moralo is getting ready to go off the board and then oops, his charges disappear.

He has been shown officially in Poland.

That was from a distributor though, not from FFG. Was it "official" or a leak?

I have to say, all these players coming to the realization that the conversion kit is not going to have a perfect ratio allowing them to fly any combination of generic and non-limited upgrades they can dream up is kind of fun to watch.

What do you mean I can’t play my 7 Z swarm out of the box?

WHY IS FFG TRYING TO SCREW US?!

You and I need to discuss your definition of "fun" at some point. I don't believe you understand what "fun" is... That, or we need to keep you very far from flammable objects.

Schadenfreude is a real thing.

It's also a nice reminder that a lot could have been fixed with just the app being released, overriding the points (and everything else) on the cards.

I may just start posting a YouTube link to old Slinky tv commercials in some of those toxic threads. Confuse the heck out of people...

Also... 22 pages left to catch up to the Gunboats. Time to put out the oars and push harder.

, but there could be plenty of reasons Luke should exist. Is he an incredibly expensive soft check on aces? "OK, we're bringing lists with aces a 30 point bid, let's just make some comically expensive Gunner to keep this from being reasonable". Are Gunner slots rare, so you can only put it in a few places? Etc.

Chris i think thats a really brilliant observation actually. I legit feel 100% better about Luke gunner now.

It'd be a shame if only one out of 5 factions has a counter to aces with crazy bids. It'd almost mean that you either pick the ace list or a fat turret. Doesn't that take the game straight back to all its current issues where only a tiny sliver of things have a shot at being viable?

I'd say it's more a fat turret based counter to aces. The aces as we've seen them so far don't really want a piece of the TIE Swarm, or blocking Jumpmasters, I suspect.

This. It looks to be simply one faction's answer to aces, and every faction should have it's answers.

I have a good feeling about this.

Also, how the **** is this the most sensible and reasonable thread on the main forum page? This should be full of TZM nearly barfing and competing anime gifs.
