Episode 17!
This episode we debut our "Garbage To Gold" concept where we take the least-played ship in each faction, discuss why nobody's flying it, and try and see how it can be shined up and made to work. At least one ship might be unsalvageable garbage!

Folks, we've hit the TWENTY EPISODE mark! We've been terrible at selling power converters but pretty good at talking about X-Wing, and we've got a plethora of content for you this week! The Xi-Class Shuttle, the LAAT/i finally makes its debut thanks to months of chanting, and we cover our performances in the Corellia Galactic Qualifier! Stay to the end for a special Listener Question that must be heard to be believed!

Xi pronunciation got us, too, over on Fangs Out. But it's "zai," or even more subtly, "kzai."

The thing about fire-hot dice being accepted by the player as "my skill," is a direct consequence of players actively and continually seeking to diminish how large the percentage of luck is in the game. I mean, if you think about it, if you've been brain-washed into accepting that horrible dice are evidence of your failure, of course you'd buy into incredibly hot dice as evidence of your skill.

I think there's some responsibility to acknowledge a dice disparity in one's favor, and also a responsibility to try to not constantly bemoan a dice disparity the other way, but the truth is ... some people honestly aren't capable of accurately recognizing either one, so whaddaygonna do?

Speaking as someone who has struggled (usually unsuccessfully) against my own dice-b!tching from my very first competitive X-Wing games back in 2012, I can say, in my defense, I always express sympathy for my opponents' genuinely horrible luck. If it's true lousy luck (or true phenomenal luck for me), why not help them feel better about things?

Good 'cast.

We got points! We got a FAQ update! We got coverage of the TIE/rb Brute and the Imperial faction in Extended, as well as the First Order and how the Xi-Class Shuttle fits into their paradigm. We go into some potential list options, plus an explanation of what jousting is and when it's not the best strategy. All this and more, the blood gates are open!
