FFG, We're Dying Here....

basically, but everything or miss out on crucial cards.

Well, at the very least FFG has said in a couple places their intent is not to do like X-Wing and make you buy outside your faction for upgrades, this is why all the non-faction/unit locked upgrades are the same across not only several expansions (I/E if you don't want to buy another set of Rebel Troopers, Fleet Troopers has the same upgrades) but also the factions. And unlike peoples... specific tastes in X-Wing, I don't see a lot of people say, refusing to buy Jumptroopers for Ion Grenades or something.

xwing is cheap enough to be able to buy everything and not break the bank. I have multiples of every non-large imp ship (often 3-4) and atleast 1 of nonimp, again some repeats. Still havnt spent even close as much money on xwing as i have ONE of my two 40k armies lol.

RWM and Legion are both expensive enough to have getting all the minis be far too expensive for most people to afford, as their prices arent 40k level of insane but theyre still expensive (gotta admit the ATST price baffled me given its size and detail). I suspect FFG was atleast smart enough to realize this before people started boycotting a product because its unplayable if you dont have thousands of dollars to shell into it.
If i got into legion i would more than likely only collect one half of it. Unless it gets really popular around here though i aint buying it, still salty about RWM dying off. And i loved RWM....

More like best news = imps finally get a crew carrier that isnt f'ing worthless!


Seeing as the Lambda shuttle has enjoyed competitive success pretty much consistently since Yorr won the North American championship in 2014 (pre-Palp, even) and is still found with a fair amount of frequency in successful lists today, this is an odd complaint. Worth pointing out that the Decimator also has three crew slots (more than any Rebel ship and all the Scum ships aside from the YV-666), and has been fairly impactful on the meta through the years, and currently RAC with his support crew sprinkled to taste (Palp/Kylo/Hux/Rebel Captive) is still a very popular ship.

:rolleyes:

Decimator is pushing 60pts to be functional, which heavily heavily limits list creativity. At that point its not a crew carrier in the sense its there to enable Hux, Fleet, System, etc its there to be a powerhouse that also happens to have space for Palp and can self-trigger Kylo's condition.
The only variance i see with Decimators is is he with a Defender, Quickdraw, Vader, or Inquis? The ship itself stays the same, and has virtually no interaction with whoever he's with other than maybe Palp (but even then i usually see Palp doing a crit just to solidify the Kylo condition even harder)

Lambda i honestly have no idea how people got that thing to go anywhere in a tournament at all, let alone win. Even if it just had white turns i'd classify that ship as an awesome vessel, its super cheap for how fat it is. But once you get behind it...its done. Ever since the buzzsaw spam died off i only see it with, again, palp.

X-Wing articles are never late, nor are they early.

They arrive precisely when they mean to.

Whoa. Wrong fandom. Does FFG still have the license to LotR? *checks*

It looks like you still check out.

FFG releases X-Wing news article... talks about the Reaper.

Rebel players light torches.

Scum players got 1 ship in the last combined wave, and no announcement in the latest. You talk about Rebels lighting torches? (I guess that is your thing about *spark that will burn the First Order down.)

Proper application. 10/10. Let's hope you get high marks from the Russian judge.
