Hello forum friends, Hope all is well! Happy Friday Eve. Wow I cannot believe how quickly we are getting to wave 4 already.
So this week I want to ask what do you want to see out of X-wing for prior to the end of the year?
sorry for the lack of posting gnomes had me cornered for a few weeks.
to be honest, there's not really much I could ask for. Having a great time with the game, and I have more ship variety than I could ever hope to fully appreciate.
maybe get the Epic conversion fast tracked, and keep things fairly balanced.
Good to see you escaped the fires of Krayt Cup intact, @Cubanboy . Was starting to think @heychadwick abandoned you there as he attempted to flee the competitive crowds.
I'm actually quite content. I'd like to see A-Wings, Interceptors, and Scyks re-released, even if just to make others happier.

I'd like to see epic back, and sooner rather than later, but I don't mind if they take the time to do it right. Just played a fun little epic game and there were a few reminders of things that aren't quite right.
I want to see more of their plans with Hyperspace. Will they just keep adding the new stuff to it? Are they going to switch around the legal ships for the original three factions? Switch out upgrades?
I know not everyone is sold on the play format, and that’s ok, but personally I like the idea of limited options that can be updated periodically.
More interesting gunners I can use on ships without turrets!
Something to get playing again, at the moment Keyforge is just more exciting. I'm sure that phase will pass, but right now it is hard for me to justify time for X-Wing. Haven't even played with the new points, yet!
I’m excited to finally get one of my Star Wars-loving friends to play X-Wing in he next couple weeks! 😁 She’s interested, just happened to be busy whenever we’ve opened up the invite for our friend group to try out X-Wing.
On top of that, Clone Wars for Legion is apparently going to be a thing? So when we inevitably get this friend to run a Star Wars tabletop RPG for us, she can use not only X-Wing for space combat, but Legion for larger battles 😂 (not that we couldn’t play during the OT but my friend and I haven’t bought into Legion... and I think Clones will certainly be the tipping point.)
I want to see some new ships for the Rebels and Imperials or at least news of them coming down the pipe line. I'd love to get some hints at Epic's return as I feel that by the end of the year, we'll have enough ships/options for every faction to table an Epic scale game with plenty of variety even for factions without Huge scaled ships. Maybe a couple new cannons and turrets with some new non-turret dependent gunners to appear.
Other than that, I don't know. I'm really quite happy with where the game is right now! I've been having fun with almost every list I can conceive even if they lose (there were two lists I made that were just either boring to fly or SUPER tedious to keep track of). I'm excited for the new factions we're getting this month and for Wave 4. That B-Wing... man... I know some people aren't thrilled with moving bits, but with everything the B-Wing can do, it opens up a LOT of future proofing for possible upgrades. Sure, it can rip off both flavors of X-wing with their S-Foil cards, but now we have cockpit AND ship body location options!
It's a good time to be an X-Wing player
Mostly I want to know for sure whether hyperspace will expand and for how long certain lists can a) be played legally and b) remain competitively somewhat viable.
The other thing has to be the ETA-2 interceptor!
1. I want Epic for Second Edition.
2. Echoing the ask for non-turret Gunners.
I will be happy when Epic comes out, but I'm fine with things as they are. Well, once the Hyena Bombers come out.
1. An update at a minimum of the conversion of Epic to Second Edition, Conversion rules and kits preferred.
2. Non-limited, non-turret/tail/device gunner.
3. Something to make the K-Fighter closer to being on part with the X-Wing outside of spamming or fat building them.
Interceptors for Hyperspace!
I just came here to like all the posts asking for Epic by this year's end.
My work here is finished.
Card packs.
I don't want to derail into discussing whether or not they're feasible, or if FFG wants to do them, or about how they will or won't fit into FFG's business model.
I just think there are so many ways these could benefit players, that I hope FFG figures out how to do them.

EPIC^10000.
I'd like elite E-Wing style ships with Sith and Jedi as pilots in the new factions
I want to see epic conversion kits.
I’d also like to see Scum get some remote options for the shenanigans like what we’ve seen from the CIS.

Get out of my brain!!!!!

If it isn't feasible, at the very least I hope we get either aces boxes with repaints and new pilots, or some sort of campaign box, again for new pilots.
