Vetting of custom expansions

By Vontoothskie, in X-Wing

Many of us have used strange eons or similar programs to create wonderful custom cards. From pilots, upgrades, and fixes, to entirely new ships. Many also use house rules.

Should we have a special section of the board set aside to share, review, celebrate and critique this side of the playerbase, similar to painting and modification?

Yes! This would be amazing. I think that the custom rules, expansions, and formats are becoming a big part of this game and warrant their own subforum.

I would be down for that!

Is there a way to start asking for a new subforum?

That would be so cool!

What ever happened to the Custom Card League??

When that was a thing I wished it had it's own subforum, too (which is the same idea as the OP).

I'd love to take part in this as well!

I think it would be awesome if we set up little doodle polls, google docs, etc. to come to a consensus on how to balance stuff as well.

Also +1 for a subforum

I've got some ideas to add, should this become a thing.

exactly! I was actually looking on the forum for some of those posts and couldnt find any, so it got me thinking a dedicated section would keep it together and foster more of it

Hey there everyone, not sure when we'll get a subforum, but I started an index for custom cards, so that we have something to use for the time being. If you can, could you share with me any links you have for your custom card threads?

ha this is what i was looking for but i couldnt reember the thread name, putting your list at the top of a subsection would be awesome

Still a very short list, sadly. I can't seem to find any of the custom card threads because this forum's search engine is so bad...

yeah even knowing about your post and having commented on it i couldnt find it easily. i have trouble posting my custom cards and models too because of the file size limit. hoping that we can change that. maybe if enough people post or like this You or I can send an email to FFG being like "theres an interest here, please make a subforum"

I like this idea ... Well, since I put a lot of time into make a few custom cards I am bias ... But I still like it a lot.

I know! the bias is real. I have custom Reaver faction and the time I put into that alone is well, i really would like it to find play amongst other people

I like this idea. I often Come up with custom Cards, or other ideas - in fact I came up with one today (or was thinking about an older one (TIE Interdictors!))

A subform would be great.
