Future of 1.0?

One thing I'm thinking about is that surely FFG will be putting new stuff in when they re-release the ships, right? For example, the conversion kits has stuff for Phantom s, but surely that's not everything? Surely when Tie Phantom 2.0 gets released, it'll have new stuff in it that's not in the conversion kits otherwise what reason would we have to buy the new Phantom 2.0? Same goes for all the ships to be released for 2.0?

They've already said there'll be new pilots/upgrades as ships rerelease, but there will be a way for players to obtain them without buying the ship blister.

Part of me wants to buy the 1.0 stuff just to complete my collection although that would be a very, VERY big purchase to catch up with all the ships even at just one copy per ship, but at the back of my head, a small voice is reminding me that I'll probably never play 1.0 anyway so eBay is indeed a very good option... or just wait for 2.0 re-release.

I can't remember if it was X-Wing or maybe Star Wars LCG.... is there a site that lists/shows what cards are included in each idividual ship pack?

That's me, I got a binder of all the cards to be released for 1.0. There was an app called X-wing companion but it has been removed from Google Play.

For me 1.0 epic will still be around for a while. There might be some things that mix 2.0 and epic. But 1.0 is the huge ship format untill FFG converts them over, but I doubt it will be before the announced ships are crossed over.

Oh, I do think I have those! It was a small packet with 4 tiles.... so are you saying that the TIE Fighter and TIE Advanced expansions won't have new stuff? New skills/upgrades?

Here's a better idea: Make a good movie and it will make more money than a bad movie that's just relying on previous reputation and a massive fan-base. SW Ep8 made $500K in 2017, Black Panther made $700K, Avengers $670K, Incredibles 2 $605K in 2018. Imagine what SW would've made if Ep7 and Ep8 were actually great movies? Let's move on guys.

Exactly. I distinctly remember an early preview for 2.0 that indicated that the expansion packs would have some things not in the kits, but they decided against that it seems.

I wonder how that would work?

Perhaps a card pack for all the new pilot of the wave?

Not really sure if that's viable....

Developers said that veterans won't have to purchase again a ship only for the cards... So i don't see too many alternatives.

I heard they shipped all extra 1.0 stock to an Alderaan game store..

How can this be? The events of Star Wars happened a long time ago.
