Bold Predictions

By SirCormac, in X-Wing

Here's about the amount of room there is on each line that must be taken up with text in order for the spacing to work.

Based on the way the T and the O line up I dont think its Thrust Correction. But admittedly the name doesnt matter as much as the card text and slot.

Ok, sorry for spamming the thread, but I think Im getting really close to the actual card text. The line that starts with "may recieve" isnt long enough but the rest is pretty close. Any ideas?

Also of note, we obviously dont know anything about any lines under the "cancel all" line. So just speculating there.

Looks good! Could it work if the line was: "receive 1 or 2 stress...in order to add that many evade results"?

Third line probably doesn’t look right because you missed a word. Probably should be “...may receive 1 stress token to...”?

That would probably make the text line up better?

If I add "token" and change "and cancel all" to "to cancel all" it looks like it fits pretty well. There is precedent to have or not have the word token, so Im happy with that addition. Thanks!

Here's the next one I'm working on. Advanced Ailerons.

The major plot points here is that the top line is not nearly long enough if it simply makes white moves green or red moves white. There's simply not enough text there to fit the card image. With that said I put forth that it impacts specifically 2 turns. With that change the text in those first few lines matches up pretty well. I would also say that that ability would likely cost more than 0, right?

The rest of the card is taken from the Adaptive Ailerons and fits well. The only issue is the last line. If you include both banks and a 1 straight the line does not fit AT ALL. "maneuver" gets bumped to next line and would be very visible in the part of the card we can see. Since we already see a bank I submit that it can only do a left or right bank with this move. The line is still a little long in the image Im uploading but I think that that is due to the bank symbols being too big in card creation program.

This text might make more sense if we think it makes sense for them to drop the word "maneuver" from the end of the last sentence.

The only reason I think they might is because of the first sentence. I would expect it to read "Treat your [<leftturn>2] and [<rightturn>2] maneuvers as white maneuvers. But the second word "maneuvers" doesnt fit on the line. I can't think of any way that you can end that sentence that wouldnt normally end in the word maneuvers, which is too long, or another similarly too long phase. So maybe they are dropping excessively redundant text from cards now. IDK

Because it's still in development, so it's 4 to 6 months away from delivery, and there's almost certainly an elephant in the wings waiting to be announced (the Solo Falcon) and added to the wave before any other previews.

Don't expect any more news (aside from the Solo Falcon announcement we all know is coming eventually) until... May, at the earliest, if we're lucky.

As of the 19th, it’s at the printers.

Need more content pleeeeeeaaassseeee {ends in high pitched squeel}.

Yup. Still 3 to 4 months at that point. A month or so for printing, 2 to 3 for shipping and distribution.

Thrust corrector being an EPT or a crew, will make Auzituks even more unbearable,a reinfornce AND a evade token?
