FFG live xwing dec 17th

By reqent, in X-Wing

On the 17th FFG is previewing new ships. I assume it's the fireball and major vonregs tie. What is everyone most excited about?

I think they need to do something before than, if that’s the next time we get news. With all the Epic issues, lack of releases, pulling back on releases etc. They’re not exactly exciting me.

As to the quest (Major Venrog’s TIE)

With how it’s worded, and not wave specific, they could use it as a chance to announce new ships beyond Wave 6. I don’t necessarily think it’ll happen but the title is certainly vague.

Tell me what deplete does for certain.

Agreed. This has to be a Wave VII announcement. There's really no way this is just the TIE/ba and the Fireball. If it were, it would have said as much.

I mean, maybe it's so they can show off the Hotshots and Aces and the Stabilized S-Foils, but I kind of doubt it.

With Star Wars episode 9 premiering the next day, it's entirely possible that FFG will announce new ship(s) from the movie they weren't allowed to show before. It's even possible that the ship(s) will be delivered before christmas. Does anybody remember the blue core set from episode 7? FFG announced it and shipped it right away.
I might be wrong, but it would definitely be cool to have new toys under the christmas tree 🤩

Ooooooh, please do. My interest is piqued for all of the pilot abilities (and the foils).

Hoping for an I5 Gina Moonsong.

Hoping against hope (doesn't make much sense with PS, but quick builds often don't), but still hoping...

Hotshots and aces looks great. Phasma could be nasty in an SF.

I certainly would love new ships in addition to the wave VI stuff but I doubt it.

Deplete and the tr talent in vonregs tie pique my interest the most. I also want to learn the initiative 4 pilot ability on the TIE/ba.

I am curious to see how much jank they can fit in the fireball expansion.
