Getting hands on ours tomorrow, (UK) just hoping for points update I guess....

It's crazy to me that you might pay for and own products that you are unable to use. I'm a big FFG supporter in almost every situation, but I'd be pretty mad if that was the case. They really need to drop the pdfs right away.

Maybe it’s because whatever type of special release this is, if it occurs isn’t a sanctioned release via FFG. (Meaning one that was fully approved) I don’t know.. but a pdf points release seems very sudden if it dropped tomorrow without an official announcement from FFG.

so is UK getting stuff before the Americas? This seems odd... .is that 100% confirmed? because my local LFGS has confirmed with me after sending him all the rumor mills that he is not getting his shipment this week

Yep, several UK FLGSs have been posting photos of stock today and are confirming "early release" tomorrow for the kits and RZ-2s. Dial covers are still out on the 13th.

that makes me super sad.... unless our LFGS gets a surprise shipment tomorrow.

I mean, it shouldn't... Without points the whole faction is useless unless you play QuickBuild, which nobody locally does...

but I like to look at the RZ-2s. pet them. cuddle them. love them.

Probably the 13th when the rest of the world is deemed worthy to receive their toys?

I'm rather puzzled by the two week gap, if I'm honest!

me too. very puzzled.

Eh don't worry about it, Lackwit is more joking around. About your question do you fly Scum or will you be flying First Order? If so you might want primed thrusters but it should come out in the future for scum. Ferrosphere paint that comes in the A-wing pack will be useless for you since I think it is Resistance only.

Thanks for clarifying.

Similarly, do we know if the Mining Tie, new Headhunter and new Striker will have cards that can be universally used?

every pack will have upgrade cards that can be used on any faction. nothing new in the Headhunter or Striker if you have them from a conversion kit already. Mining Tie is new but like all expansions will feature some reprints of old upgrades. nothing new has been spoiled apart from the pilots on that one.

Gonna hit the shop tomorrow lunch then so I can put them on the table that evening. If the points are released. Fingers crossed.

It's afternoon in the UK, did you guys pick up your Wave 2 ships and conversion kits?

@Tyhar7 , @Sk3tch , and @Porkchop Express

if you did hopefully FFG releases the First Order and Resistiance points pdf for you so the kits are usable.

Awesome hopefully the points pdf is released for all the UK players so you can play some games with the new plastic crack.

I did the same as sk3tch. Unboxed most of it. Hoping we'll see either a PDF or app update in the coming hours.

If the release date for the rest of the world is later, we might not see the points lists as soon. I'm hoping that the release date is accelerated everywhere but I'm honestly completely lost as to what's actually going to happen

Eagerly awaited for sure.

If nothing, I'll try and approximate my old favourite First Order squads and see what points it comes to in the app (when release).

Yeah, FFG has completely dropped the ball on this one

Did you get the Resistance kit or just FO? If someone got the Resistance can you tell me if the (generic) Force Upgrade "Overwhelming Shot" was included, it is in the First Order that much was spoiled.

Yeah I got the resistance but haven't opened up the upgrade packs yet. There was an unboxing video post last night on another thread and I don't think any force powers were in there.
