No, but unless I could split with someone I’d be whining over buying two full core boxes when I only can afford to keep up one faction beyond my existing one I have.

I actually didn’t double core the first time around, but would have if I knew better with my hindsight and experience today

Personally, I’d hope to see them do a second core set, so that those who have no interest in OT army combat but would love Clone Wars Battles on their table aren’t roped into buying a $100 box set of minis they’ll never use just for some of the rules, cards and accessories.

Well, it really depends on *if* FFG wants to have another loss leader in their Legion line.

It will also depend on how well the core related expansions sold. IIRC, the Stormtroopers and Rebel Troopers each had to go back to reprint but I'm pretty sure the Speeder Bikes and AT-RT have always been readily available. They can always use the sales #s for the GCW core expansions to somewhat predict how well TCW stuff would sell.

Honestly, I see them going with "Army Builder" boxes instead of a new Core set. All they have to do is add in 16 extra cards (4 generic command cards and the 12 Battle cards) and some extra cardboard (round counter and various tokens). Unlike RWM, they have the movement templates, range ruler, and terrain (Barricades) as stand-alone SKUs already.

I am excities for TCW stuff though my pocket book isn’t. Still haven’t preordered the new vehicles yet.

I have said this numerous time now but May is the 20th anniversary of the TPM, seems like a good time for a release or very min an announcement.
