In the old kits, it wouldn't surprise me if the plaque cost more than the rest of the kit combined to produce.

Let alone how much weight they must add to shipping.

I either want a plaque or a giant Krennic token.

Just listened to the cast. Best part was when Sabacc "blocks" supernatural reflexes with the strikers natural reflexes. Apparently somehow only a couple pages away from defeating the Gunboat thread.

What do you think FFG has on its general watch list now that 2.0 exists?

• Passive Dice Mods
• 180+ degree arc coverage
• Pre-Movement Actions
• Intel Agent Stuff
• Ships or Weapons that shoot twice
• Two Ship List Metas
• Bombs outside of the system phase
• Auto Damage
• Consistent Control (Jam, Ion, Tractor, Fenn/Omega Leader, Stress, etc. )
• Infinite Regen
• White K-Turns, Sloops, or Talons
• Force User Crew & Pilots
• Complete Dials ( YT-2400, Kylo, etc. )
• 

What are you guys hoping fits?

It's going to be a nail-biter to see if this fits in 200, but I have hope (but we all know that this will be 204 or something)

2 Generic TIE Defenders (Juke and Afterburners)

Omicron Group Pilot (Darth Vader)

I have a feeling Afterburners will need to go.

I am looking at Procket Supernatural Burner Vader, Procket Supernatural Grand Quiz, and Sabacc with a Sesimic or something.

We we deserve it

You have to admit, the speed at which Destiny stuff comes out makes it have more variety than us. They've already got multiple versions of all the OT main characters, they've got most of the main prequels/Clone Wars characters, all the Sequels characters, all the new characters from the comics, and then even pretty obscure stuff like Lobot and K-2SO.

We have the better game, but they have more cards.

Also, last I checked, Sabine was really good in that game too. But she doesn't throw a lot of bombs at people, she just whips out Holdout Blasters faster than Han Solo and shoots people in the face before they do anything. She already made them change a core rule of the game and basically ban a card.

How is the best character from the 2nd best Star Wars movie obscure?

This game's been around for 6 years. If he's not in this game, how is he not obscure?

He's only been around for 1.5 of those years. But more importantly when attempting to capture the dryness of wit and searing majesty in cardboard form the combination of the two led to conditions ripe for spontaneous combustion. The prototype print run was lost in a conflagration that managed to sound vaguely annoyed at having to burn stuff

I own four copies of K-2SO in Destiny. He was my cursed Legendary that set, I just couldn't pull a Thrawn to save my life.

I'd trade them all away for an X-Wing K2.

I pulled a Thrawn. The die was cracked. FFG refused to replace it. I have not purchased anything Destiny-related since.

Not that I'm bitter or anything...

Yeah, sorry that happened to you, but it's nothing new. There's one guy on the Destiny forums who always talks about how his Vader die had a rounded face and they wouldn't replace it.

I think I spent more money on Destiny in one year than I've spent on X-Wing in six. And Destiny is already basically dead in my area. It's too bad, it was a fun game at its core, but there was just too much wrong with it.

Never play card games. They eat money and are never that fun. ****, money/fun ratio is frequently negative with them.

Also, impromptu survey. Who played 40k/WHFB prior to X-wing? I've got some questions i"d like to ask you about various ****.

I played both.

Well, new article happened. Nothing too interesting, except I love how quickly I can look at an upgrade and know everything about it:

• left side has the upgrade icon and any requirements to equip it
• all that stuff being out of the way of the text means there's more room for interesting abilities
• horizontal art looks better

Illicits on T-65's. Contraband cybernetics plus talon roll could be a thing.

So questions for you (and anyone who played those games)

Which faction(s) did you play in 40k/WHFB?

Do you play only one faction? Or mostly one faction? If so, which faction? - THIS IS AN X-WING QUESTION

Do you come up with personalized fluff ("Your Dudes") for your collection? - THIS IS AN X-WING QUESTION

Do you paint your own models? - THIS IS AN X-WING QUESTION

Eldar in 2ed, Chaos Marines and Imperial Guard in 3ed and 4ed for 40k. Just Chaos for same time frame in FB

I only really played one faction at a time for the most part. Started off with Eldar but drifted to Chaos because they were so much cooler and then drifted to Imperial Guard because 3ed Chaos was super broken. I got tired of winning and my group got tired of losing every game so switched to the guard which were hilariously awful at the time

Nope, used existing fluff. But did do a lot of custom stuff and backstories for my Blood Bowl team

Yes

alongside the reinforce change magva is 100% going on my lowie if i am using him.
