The Nantex makes _way_ more sense than the Punworcca!
I haven’t been able to check the stream, but nobody’s talking about anything from the panel?

CW confirmed for Armada. Epic 2.0 has had the templates reworked, there is a new squad maneuver template for it as well. Epic conversion kit confirmed with some of the ships being available for multiple factions. Wave 5 announcement was mostly just the pictures for the ships (Ghost + Sheath, Advanced V1, M3-A, Nantex, & BTL-B Y-Wing) though the CW era ships had full spreads. Sheath mini confirmed to dock physically with the Ghost mini. Reworked post for the VCX.
Epic conversion kit : with new movement template, new one-piece base, new rules for moving squadrons of small ships with only one dial and other stuff.
Not sure of this one but they talked about a new conversion kit for cross-faction ships

I forgot that part.

Way way way more hyped for these then for wave 5. I can not overstate how much more exciting these are.
Also hoping what comes with them is some campaign format. Epic lends itself more to thematic fun than full competition like xwing standard.
@Darth Meanie
Just restating incase you missed it: Epic 2.0 conversion kit confirmed, at least some of the current Epic ships will be multi-faction, FFG has tossed the old split base held together by cardboard for a single solid base, Epic maneuver templates have been reworked, there is a new "flight template" that allows flying a group of smaller ships in formation using the flight leader's dial (move the flight leader, align the middle of the template in the flight leader's front guides, move the wingmen into position using the adjacent guide notches, demo pic used the 2 bank so the formation trumps distances moved, ships in the demo pic were the TIE Advanced x1 and 2 TIE/Lns).

They also said the Epic conversion kit (or whatever) will come with 11 scenarios if I recall correctly.
Edited by dsul413Is there a link for the full panel?

Not yet for GSP. Might be up in the next couple of days I think if Dion was able to record it completely.

Hey @Darth Meanie check this out! This is awesome!
Ugh I just want to watch the panel. I'm so spoiled by this community. I've always taken for granted that I'd be able to see a live panel just after it happened.
TBH, can't believe that FFG doesn't have it up either.

This help? They linked Team Covenant's FB recording.

first reaction as a scum player. jumpmaster (i own 3) and m3 (i dont own any) are going to need some help with points reduction to make them playable. I can see Dengar in hyperspace next rotation but the other jumpmaster pilots? nope... the dial is just too horrible. m3 could replace z-95 or mining build as a cheap fuller ship but that doesnt seem likely just now because we have just recently got these ships. iv been looking at manaroo in extended but its too expensive to use as a coordinating support ship, ur just better off taking any of the escape craft pilots for less points and u get a better ship.

Am I wrong in reading Asoka gunner in the Y-Wing? And another bullseye attack card of some type behind snap shot’s card?

The gunner is Ahsoka, they are trying to give you the ability to run Anakin and her together like in the Malevolence episodes just like they are trying to give you the ability to also run R2 and 3PO together like in Nomad Droids.

Bullseye attack, 2 red, range 1-2(? might be 1-3), Ordinance. Not seeing any definite Torps in the spread (there are 2 upgrades not shown per the article), but it might be a bullseye torp (I hear Kavil drooling). Definitely new since it isn't Prockets (wrong pic for it and way too wordy).

Unless the bullseye one is the electro proton bomb then it is likely one of the unshown cards with the modification likely being something simple like a hull upgrade. The Hyena bomber has a card in its spread that looked like it might be the electro proton bomb but it isn't in the spread here for the Y-Wing. As another little thing, both the Y-Wing and Hyena bomber have that same new token, I wonder if it deals with the electro proton bomb.

The device in the Hyena spread is Bomblet Generator. Both have the same new bomb template though. I wonder why the Hyena has 2 bomblet templates?
