[Stream ended YouTube recording link in OP] Reminder: FFG Live Hotshots and Aces gameplay on Twitch TODAY, Feb 25th @ 1pm Central time

By Hiemfire, in X-Wing

But we already saw a bunch of these pilots? I wonder what they’re going to do with this one.

We saw FO vs Resistance with a focus on both the Wave 6 new releases and some of their pilots from the pack. That leaves the other 3 factions to choose from. My guess will be Imps vs Rebs with Leia, Gina (with stab), and Morna being front and center.

But... They're already released and in the wild...

This is odd. Possibly the strangest FFG live stream ever.

A lot of people don’t have these at their LGS and have no idea when they will become available.
It’s madness how there is zero info on when they will arrive.

I agree, if you're going to a do a live stream in late Feb - show us the LAAT!

Probably saving Wave 7 stuff for March if they're getting released in April. Gotta keep that hype up!

I should start a rumor that Wave 7 is delayed due to Coronavirus.

I just wish they'd release wave 6. I was kinda hoping to fly the Interceptor in December, but there's still no word on when we'll actually get it.

It's already out. It came out the 31st of January. Barnes and Noble had it long before then.

Unless you're not in North America or Europe?

Edit: Oh, Norway. Hmmm, sorry. It's no fun when everyone else gets the toys. 😕

Looks like there have been supply issues globally for the hotshots and aces pack at least.

I'd guess they plan to announce something mid stream.

Maybe? But I kind of doubt it. My guess is it's too early for a Wave VII preview, but they want to keep excitement up, so they're just doing this instead. They might tease campaign or further card packs on stream, but I doubt we'll get anything like a formal announcement.

Bumping to remind those interested. This coming Tuesday @ 1pm Central US time on their Twitch Channel (link in the original post).

Hardly anyone in Europe got to lay their hands on those so at least we can watch FFG play with them, I suppose?

It's cool to just have the devs play X-Wing on stream and interact with chat once a month even if there's no previews or announcements or larger purpose

Agreed. I always like the Q&A at least as much as the scheduled announcements anyway.

2 days till stream.

Stream is tomorrow.

I won’t be able to catch it live; can someone ask them what the story is with the faction damage decks? Wondering what the story is with them not even being on the upcoming page anymore but we never got them.

Just a bit over an hour till Stream. @ScummyRebel I'll try to remember to ask.

@ScummyRebel No info available as of this stream. Sorry.

Thanks for checking. I had become worried when I saw they had dropped off the upcoming page entirely without explanation.

Is it possible that they just didn't consider the fact this would mean folks could skip out on buying the core set? What other difficulty could there be in printing cardboard?

Just a WAG on my part but China is where most of FFG's products are produced iirc and things have been a bit hectic over there for the last year or so to say the least and have been getting worse. That might have a little to do with it.
