Cards previously found only in rebel expansions.

Oh. I see now.

I thought he meant faction-exclusive cards

Who's in line getting your badges.

I am. Did not expect this long-*** (but surprisingly orderly) line..

As "future Star Wars: Armada expansion" is singular, I'm thinking... 1). Armada Clone Wars

2). Dornean gunship flotilla

3). Rebel huge ship

Whatever it is, I think it will be SWM28.

Rebellion in the Rim campaign box. Okay, didn't see that one coming. Their must be a crack in my crystal ball. 🤔

Dornean Gunship and Imperial Support Vessel are my safe-bets.

Though I've got my fingers crossed for Clone Wars. Would really love to have a couple extra factions....

Seriously I would play the daylights out of Obi Wan.

Honestly, I think they are going to tell us about sector fleet, and pretend it is something new. Maybe a new Sector Fleet box with cards and cardboard.

If we are lucky maybe a couple new ships.

If we are really lucky they will announce Clone Wars expansions with new factions.

If we are unlucky it will be First Order and Resistance fleets. (JK I’d love to get First Order Ships)

We need to get announcement times

I need info on who is broadcasting. FFG themselves?

I know the Legion podcast "The Fifth Trooper" is planning on being at the panel and is planning on covering it. I think their intent was to stream on their YouTube channel. But who knows what the situation will be.

I'm hoping I'm not in the middle of working so I can watch the panel. The question is...

WHERE DO I WATCH IT?

I know what's time. 2pm eastern but will it be streamed and where?

At least you might watch. Us at worlds will BE IN THE MIDDLE OF ROUND 2. 😪

If anyone is at Adepticon, I've seen they have display stands with the upcoming X-Wing stuff, is there a gap there for a potential Armada thing (or even a copy of the SSD)?

Teaser: Something Bigger

Its the Death star!

At the end of each round, roll the Death star at your opponents fleet like a bowling ball simultaneously crushing their models as well as their dreams.

At least your at worlds... I may never get to go to world's. The info will get to you eventually. World's is not coming to me 😢 I'd rather be at the tourney and get the news late.

Which will result in the best lines of the tournament.

“****! Just table me already so I can go see the news.”

When can we expect news in U.K. time?

*Please be good news. Please be good news 🤞

I think the panel is set for 1pm local time, which the Internet tells me is 6pm UK time, or just over 4 hours from this comment.


We'll see what we get. Just a matter of time now.

As a rebel player, i'd love a lil love to my faction:

Flotilla: Braha'tok -Class

Small: DP-20 Corellian Gunship

Medium: MC-40a Light Cruiser

Large: Dauntless -Class

I'd love any of these 🙂

All I can say is keep expectations low but hopes high!

Remember even if they announce just one expansion, that’s far more then we had yesterday.

My hope if get one expansion:

- A rebel star hawk

My hope if we get a wave:

-Dornean Gunship

-Imperial Patrol Ship (The new canon ship using the katana fleet dreadnaught design)

What we likely get:

-A new campaign that improves on Corellian Conflict, has a variation that balances the use of Huge Ships.

I'm bracing for it to be something so thoroughly underwhelming and disappointing, like an official 3x6 FFG mat or something (which would also be usable for the upcoming Epic 2.0 that X-Wings rules/regs documents have hinted would be returning). I mean, I don't really think this is it or that FFG would be crazy enough to hype such a thing, buuuut after the Hyperspace Report Bungle and the End of 2018 Twitter Bungle, I don't really put anything past 'em... :D

Oh dear god... maybe it's some plastic Speed Dial upgrade covers or something... the X-Wing community was throwing a lot of shade when FFG revealed a new plastic maneuver templates upgrade set as part of Wave IV...

Dp20. Dreadnought.

I really hope it's not that disappointing. Plastic ship(s) or bust FFG

I feel like I’m one of the only people who doesn’t want the Brahatok. I don’t want any more small ships. I want a rebel medium that doesn’t look like a gundam had a baby with the Hindenburg and that performs well enough.

"We are very excited to announce that, in order to keep our plastic molds firing for X-Wing and Legion, STAR WARS: ARMADA will become FFG's first Tabletop Token Game . Players will be able to enjoy the same great game play and thrilling fleet combat that they love, but ships and squadrons are now replaced with beautiful tokens featuring all the arcs, stats, and other info of the game's bases while also featuring a breathtaking top-down image of the ship or squadron itself. Without pesky plastic bases, pegs and bulky miniatures in the way, players can get right down to more of what they love: rolling attack dice at their enemy's fleet! The new tokens also mean that collisions have been reworked and ships can now overlap one another on the board, better simulating the three-dimensional nature of a space battlefield. Star Wars Armada players will also enjoy the ease of transporting afforded by their token fleet, and will be offering lovely binders featuring your favorite stunning Star Wars: Armada artwork on the cover and have pages with pockets specifically designed to hold your fleet's ship and squadron tokens. And if you loved adding Alt Art cards to your collection, FFGOP will be offering Alt Art and Foiled ship and squadron tokens as future prizes.

Stay Tuned, as The Runewars Miniature Game will be reanimated like a Terrinoth Zombie as it moves to the Tabletop Token Game model as well in early 2021!"


Hahaha.

Though, like seriously, this wouldn't be so bad...
