(I Haven't seen one of these yet, so if it already exists let me know.)

With the Hyperspace Report arriving tomorrow, I've started this thread so that people can speculate on what stuff will be revealed at the event.

My bets are on a new squadron pack, possibly Rogue 1 themed (U-wings and TIE Strikers).

Feel free to post below!

SSD

Death star II matt with marked positions for defensive turrets (sold separately)

but more likely .... disappointment

I feel there is enough fighters at the moment. I would like to see more ships especially medium size ships for the Rebels as they only have one at the moment. And Some fast small agile ships for the Imperials.

Ships I would like to see

Corellian Gunship, Tartan Patrol Cruiser, Nebulon-B2

Possibly some 3D terrain for more in depth games like space stations asteroids etc.

X-Wing: Scum Falcon based on the one in Solo added to the upcoming wave.

Armada: Next wave, or possibly finally that something 'Big' that they mentioned last year at Gencon, since they did say that Thrawn wasn't it.

Imperial Assault: Not much if anything, maybe a Solo themed skirmish set. But they had their next big release already revealed recently so likely nothing.

Legion: Scout Troopers and the next Imperial Commander, possibly another accessory release like a mat or terrain but I won't hold my breath.

Destiny: Next set.

WEight:

Squad Pack - half Rebels/half Imperials including U-Wing, TIE/s.

Commander Solo - 26 Points, Once Per Activation You May Re-roll all die in your die pool. If you do, after you roll, remove one die from the pool.

Lancer Flotilla for Imperials, Corellian Gunship Flotilla for Rebels, both focused on AA.

Commander Solo: Before gathering your dice pool, you may announce what you determine to be a "pefect roll." If your opponent is unable to tell you the odds of rolling that combination of dice, you may reroll your attack pool as many times as you wish.

Solo: "Never tell me the odds!"

SSD with epic play rules set.

Combat Flotillas, Braha'tok for Rebels, IPV for Imperials

mixed Squadron pack.

I really don't want more squads unless it is U-Wings packaged similar to the Gauntlet fighters of Wave 7.

I predict we will get the SSD which like the Corellian Conflict will be a non-wave release.

My guess is Wave 8 will be 2 small ships but my outside-the-box prediction is we get a repackaged Quasar for the Rebels that includes 2 U-Wings. This would give the Rebels another Medium ship which they soarly need, it would also give them a dedicated carrier which they also soarly need and the U-Wings are really the only squad not in the game that I can see being in the game.

This with one addition.

The Liberator title for Imperials.

Gotta reference the original name for the thing before it became Phoenix Nest .

A new big campaign. Rogue one time frame up to battle of Yavin based on destroying/defending the Death Star. Several new ship variant and titles for core box ships and wave 1 ships. Uwings added as well. 2 ship wave announced as well.

I vote nothing. Is that an option? I love Armada, but I'd probably get a bigger chuckle from no news and the general rage of the community. (Something about watching the world burn)

And if I'm wrong, I still am pleasantly surprised.

That would be incredible! If they made a more dedicated sub game then CC I'm all in.

My problem with CC, is though it provided a framework for battles, it never went in depth enough to make the overall strategy matter or all that engaging after one play through.

it would be nice if the board game half of any content like you suggested would be fun to play in its own right like a miniaturized version of Rebellion.

Maybe have a map with twelve worlds and each fleet has a little marker that you have to move around a certain way.

This

Inflatable beach ball death star complete with campaign, ship titles, squads, updated errata cards, all for 9.99$ and it comes with the pump!

I expect maximum disappointment

I am hoping for max excitement. I think 2 ships (the Arestor and Braha'tok) , 1 squad pack, and that SSD.

I expect nothing.

I hope for many things.

BIG... Big... big is coming! :)

SSD for squeals and fun. Venator on a large base. Something medium for rebels.

I feel like it will be Dorean Gunship for Rebels and Venator for Imperials.

Clone wars era for many games. SSD for Armada.

I think a new starter would make sense, just hoping its not new trilogy themed. A new squadron pack with many rogues plausible too, just like a scenario expqnsion. While we would need smal and medium ship boost, I dont think theyll come this wave. Also, I see a shadow. Big shadow... something big is coming!
