Though you probably should. Just to ensure your opponent can fairly keep track of what your S-Foils are doing.

I hope no one tries to snap my S-foils off my old models. They will close exactly once. I mean it's not that hard to ask anyway, since it's under "public information" of the board state.

I know this is a crazy idea, but how about we use a card? We could even call it Sevomotor S-Foils or something!

Oh, please. I suppose next you'll say we should just remove charges from the card after firing missiles rather than insisting that everyone actually paint the launchers on their ships to look empty!

If you think the X-Wing's articulating S-Foils are pretty cool, you are going to go crazy when you see the articulating winglets of the ARC-170. ?

Except for the fact that likely tens of thousands of old X-Wing models still exist and most players won't replace all of them with new ones.

Like everything else with an abstracted tabletop game, you're just going to have to (fairly) look at your opponent's cards if you're concerned about what they can do. There's no functional difference between this and any other two-sided card.

So now in addition to buying a core set, conversion kits, getting an iPhone, in order to play this game, I need to not only pay attention to my opponent and their cards, but I Now have to learn how to read!?!?

FFG you are asking to much!!!

What I love is that people think I mean to say, "Replace all of your models, nerd."

No, if you have a NEW one, you should. God, the things I have to explain.

It sounds like you want me to replace all of my models.

I am starting to get confused. Do I want to replace all of my models?

Replace my X-wings with U-wings?

<sigh> Maybe I should just replace X-Wing with Armada, where you never have to worry about replacing anything with anything because there's never anything to replace anything with.

Am I the only person that genuinely doesn't care in the slightest about movable parts on the models? I can't be, right? Right?

What should we do if we have a mix of old and new X-wings in the same list? Using the cards as indicators for some and wings with others?

If you have the new models, you should. If you have a mix, you can't do anything about it, and it's a big oh well.

I wish we had little buttons on the ship bases that closed/opened the s foils, an attack sound, a whooshing evade sound, and a pilot specific audio quote.

I shall construct a flowchart!

You're profile says "HWK Pilot" so I don't blame people for taking you seriously. I do. Every word.

Why aren't they motorized? They should be Bluetooth synced to the card. This is ridiculous that FFG released a product that has to be manually adjusted.

Wait til 3.0

I guess if that happens you could try to force them to buy you a new 2.0 one for the one they broke.
