Hooray. Upsilons on sale at Amazon for 12 bucks.

By Cloaker, in X-Wing

after playing this list a couple of times against opponents that have never seen it, I'm convinced it's very beatable. Gonna get some more games in, both playing it and against it and see if my opinion stands.

Now all we need is the points to drop below 50. That way you can field 4 with some upgrades

;)

Quick build 4 Starkiller base pilots (naked). 48 shield and hull + 16 red dice. Stupid...😜👍

lol it’s $11.00 now.

Anyone else wonder how many of these things they made? And free same day shipping??

Good gravy..... and now that the list is NOT the tournament boogieman it was two weeks ago (see Toronto) which was hillarious, they might have to drop these buggers to $7 or so (like the TIE Bomber or Quad Jumper) to unload the rest them; and better do it before they neuter Dormitz or Tavson, like the post-actual-meta-issue-nerfers at FFG tend to do, haha.

...now where's my tea?

Not a Hyperspace event. Nobody flew it (probably because everyone would hate you). Not a refutation of its effect on Hyperspace.

But really, the emperor has no clothes...

didn't make a splash at the qualifier, either (though neither did lots of things)

$10.87 on prime. I finally gave in.

Is this scary enough?

Dang it, I keep watching amazon.ca but the price never changes. You lucky buggers. I still don't own one!

Actually... would I even use it if I had one? Hmm...

It turned out to be $30CAD all in a few weeks back and it'll make great painting fodder. If it gets to $20 with shipping, I may just get a third.

Pity none of the other ships are dropping in prices like this.. Today during my drive up to Cleveland to visit the ONLY NAVY Federal branch in the bloody state, i hit a store up in Mansfield and other than X and Y-wings, not one of their 1e ships were on sale..

If you enjoy losing all the time, yes you would.

I enjoy playing the game win or lose, so that’s not a factor.

I jumped. Got one of these and a Quadjumper for $18. That's crazy!

Wish the other ships would get that steeply discounted. I picked up one because why not at that price.

Upsilons back up to $16.13!

But now they've been nerfed! Will they fall in price again? WE SHALL SEE.

Me too! My first Quadjumper, which makes sense since I usually don't fly Scum. I'm hoping to amass enough First Order ships to run 600 points. We'll call it pre-epic for now 😁

Now that Dormitz has been whacked with a hammer, they’ve gone up to $16+ 😂

Shouldn't less demand for them decrease the price 🤔?

FFG is actually making money on Amazon and EBay arbitrage. It's the ONLY thing that makes sense.

The stores selling them have already bought the stock from FFG, if anyone's making a loss, it's them.

And with 2nd edition reprints to come, it's not really all that surprising that these guys are finding it hard to shift surplus 1st edition content.
