The Big Future Releases Thread

By Wookiee_Slayer, in X-Wing

Ok lets theorize! The new wave 14 has barely been announced, so lets start talking about wave 15. I am not sarcastic, its just that I, personally, am pretty much a Scum-only player with an imperial squad once in a lifetime... So wave 14 really sucks IMHO. I am not gonna say scum didnt get anything for two wave in a row (since 12 & 13 were released together) but I wanna move on...

Of course this is NOT scum-only but anything!

If you want a ship, name it!

Have custom cards? Post 'em!

Thought of a new mechanic? Let us know!

Anything is welcome! CW, Rebels, EU, Legends, Canon, Disney-Canon... You name, you post it! Fun for everybody!

Necropost? Thats fine too, if you got an idea just post it here anytime you want!

/endRingmasterMode

EDIT: I named waves 14 and 15 as example...

Here here! :) I too was disappointed by the lack of scum. But rumpus of an epic ship with fixes and new paint jobs for say the Misthunter (G1-A)

Honestly I think Scum should get 2 things: the Gauntlet fighter + Protectorate and an aces pack with 2 protectorates... Just like the Imperial Aces...

Give the Mandalorians their ships!

more to your point: I always thought that the Mist Hunter was "JUST" that one ship that had 4-LOM and Zuckuss I doubt they can stretch the amount of Unique Pilots that ever flew a G1-A

But we don‘t know whether we‘ve seen the whole wave. Much to the contrary, most of us believe that a Scum Falcon is in there. And then there are also the missing SKUs.

I‘m neither wanting to derail nor argue. Rather I hope that you can find some excitement in wave 14 on the hope that we will get more than we currently know

The "Aces" pack (Saw's Renegades) being now part of the Waves instead of being additionally released between them could mean they now want to take some more time between product releases.
Imo that is a good thing, since last waves power-creep felt like they didn't bother to playtest at all...

I bet we're going to get more products that have a model and pilot cards and upgrade cards and ship bases and tokens.

Any takers?

Ship models are OP.

I wouldn’t go so far as to say wave 14 sucks. T65 fix anyone? And if the reaper jam action gives two tokens not just one (similar to epic jam being double stress) that could be neat.

Yeah, scum is in a sad place now. I hope we see some more goodies for my favorite faction by thematic element. Maybe something cool from Solo that’s not the Falcon (again). We shall see.

They definitely need nerfed. Look at the ARC-170, way too good of a model.

NERF MODELS!

Actually, nerf human bodies. They can fly a ship off the board in a couple seconds.

wave14 had no scum stuff because its highly likely theres 2-4 new ships in the solo movie that will make 0 sense as anyone other than scum. Theres a new TIE were bound to get, but other than that i dont see anything non-scum from that movie and i still expect several ships.

Lol, make a new thread about this... :D

oh wait...

~*Ships I still want*~

Rebels: RZ-2 A-Wing, N-1 Starfighter, the Raven's Claw, and the Hammerhead Corvette.

Imperial: Vader's Sith Infiltrator, First Order Bomber

Scum: Aka'jor-class Shuttle, Crusader Corvette, Pursuer-Class Enforcement Ship, The Wild Karrde, AIAT/I, and Rogue-Class Starfighter

Duel Faction: Skipray Blastboat (Imp & Scum), The Ark Angel (Imp & Scum), The Rogue Shadow (Rebel & Imp), Personal Luxury Yacht 3000 (Scum & Rebel), and the Corvus (Rebel & Imp).

Tri-Faction: Gauntlet fighter, and V-Wing.

Pipe Dream: The Ebon Hawk, and the V-Wing Airspeeder.

~*Ace Packs*~

Pheonix Squadron: Honestly, A-Wings and B-Wings together again.

New Republic Aces: E-Wing and what ever else needs fixing.

Mercenaries and Agents: Firespray fix pack with pilots for both Imp and Scum. Titles that help the ship out, with maybe something extra for Imps to offset the lack of illicit slot (or just give the. The illicit slot). Imps primarily drawing on elements like ISB for pilots, and Scum getting the likes of Jango Fett and Aurra Sing.

I'd love to see the Gauntlet fighter but being so large it would have to be a ghost sized large model, whose identity will be somewhat similar to ig2000 aggressor, though the model would be much bigger. Many people say it would have to be epic but it doesn't fly like an epic ship.

I would really like scum to get a dual crew ship. *Cough* scum falcon *cough*

But seriously I would love for scum to have a non-falcon dual crew, and or a decent cheap shuttle. I'd like something that straddles the line between tie shuttle, auzituck gunship and the sheathapede. I.E. Decent health and two defense or two attack with auxiliary arc, (rear/180/mobile)

Tbh mobile might be too good to have or at least too expensive for the Base cost, and rear arc is similar to sheathapeade and firespray.

So what I would love is definitely a two attack, two defense, 180/Mobile arc, 4/5 hull, 1 shield, dual crew + illicit.

With focus, target lock, coordinate, (rotate arc)

Do you think mobile arc is worth more, less or the same than a 180 arc.

Are high PS, with crew such as K4, epts like ptl or expertise. It could be undodgable two hits.

Regardless is there even a ship that would fit this idea?

Omg! What if the Scum falcon has a mobile arc instead of primary turret. One can only dream :P

Im actually thinking that the Scum Falcon will be a super expensive three die turret with innate boost and 0 agility but without sixteen hull.

more improtantly though I want me some Gauntlet fighters, just make em super fat brobots and we're good,

I wanted to see the Zygerrian slave ship with hull values like the Ghost or Decimator and/or the Starhopper (used in Clone Wars by Ventress, the Hutts and Zygerrians and seen in Rebels once).

As far as something made up, I’d like to see a cannon or turret that acts like a Gatling gun. Starts at 3 dice on first target, 2 dice on second and 1 die on the third. Each successive attack must be at range one of the next, or can attack the same target. Maybe equal in cost to a TLT or maybe a point cheaper (the last two attacks don’t have as much punch as a TLT) Just a thought.

Ok lets theorize!

I'm going to refrain from wishlisting, and go for theorize:

Wave 14 isn't done. At the very least, Scum will get the new Falcon with young Solo and Lando.

If we are lucky, it will also include the new TIE/d Pod from the movie, and maybe a RZ-2 A-Wing from TLJ.

Wave 15 will either be ships from Ep IX, or more filler from RO, Rebels, and TLJ (Zeta Shuttle, Sentinel Shuttle, Battle of Scarif X- and Y-, RZ-2 A-).

Scum will see their corvette Huge ship.

If there is a lot of Scum in Solo, we might see it in Wave 15, or Scum might get more EU material (Dunelizard).

2018 has 2 new movies in it, plus the finale of Rebels. I suspect the FFG guys are going to get less "do what you want" and more "do what you see."

It is pretty odd that the Partisan pack is part of a wave rather than a stand alone. Makes we wonder if we will still see another Aces pack, or maybe 2 mini waves of movie ships.

I want a Purrgil expansion! Wait... that’s Oicunn in the Decimator.

All for the Dunelizard! (I have a seperate thread on it) also wave 15 is by rough estimate when? september?

Based on historical data, I would think November or December.

I doubt it will get a boost as in the trailer it does a barrel roll and a large base ship with boost and barrel roll is either gunna be super expensive or OP.

Personally I think we should get the scum falcon in the same wave as the uwing/xwing pack as they would all be around the same time.

In all honesty Im not bothered about what scum ships we get(other then the falcon) as long as the pilots are ones I know because most people don't know (before playing x wing) what ship Dengar flew or most bounty hunters ships but we all know the pilots, so as long as we get awesome bounty hunters I'll be throwing my money for those plastic ships ?

stuff I'd like to see

Naboo N1 Starfighter -Leia pilot

Ark Angel - Dr. Aphra's ship (with BT-1 and 0-0-0 crew)

is there a custom card for the Rogue Class yet?

Thinking it could be the Scum Phantom....

3/1/3/6

Cannon / Missile / Illicit /

Cloak / Focus / Boost

A campaign box themed in the old republic era... Includes two N-1 and an horrible federation droid flier that becomes the golden key of Imp/FO lists also. Adds two new sub-factions to the currents and a has a lot of new things for some existing models (like the ARC-170...). New templates for 4 banks/4 turns and new dice's for some new actions...
