I may have posted this here before, but since Attack wing uses capital ships, why not a Flight Path system game using FFG's own TI3 Universe? Plenty of races to choose from and it is really under utilized as a setting. TI3 uses just generic starships, but that gives the design staff a lot of room to be creative.
Any thoughts?
As much fun as TI is, and it is a lot of fun, I would prefer FFG not draw resources away from a seriously viable Star Wars.
Let keep improving what we have first. I wouldn't buy into another system yet.

Yeah, I love the twilight imperium universe. Even more so after playing Rex and reading the story in the rulebook. But I don't have room in my collection for more than 1 flightpath system minis game. I would love to see more games in the twilight imperium universe, but more in the stand alone board game setting than miniatures.
I love Twilight Imperium just as is.
X-Wing will soon have gobbled up a thousand dollars from me and people buying me presents at some point in 2014. I don't have room for another game like this.
Too bad. I still would have liked it. I imagine they will do another Flight Path game no matter what. It's too good a system and the original trilogy ships are pretty much played out. They will probably do Prequel/Clone Wars ships I imagine.
Maybe a better question might be, what is FFGs next Flight Path game?
I know the system itself is called "flight path" but I find with a little tweeking it works just fine with other skirmish style war games (more lateral and little backwards movement). It's such a well done system, it just works.
The obvious one would be to release a flight path game based around Dust.
I always thought the twilight imperium ship combat was a bit simple (even though the game still takes days to play with six players). Adding in a better combat resolution phase using a flight path derivitive would be intriguing.

Given the inclusion of the Moldy Crow and the fact that they've previewed capital ships, I think we've got at least another 12 months of OT/EU content before they move into Prequel material.
And even then, I have to agree with the guys - I'd rather see FFG invest money and resources into this great game. Anything they spend on another flight-path game they could theoretically be spending on X-Wing, and I'd rather see this great game continue to be developed and expanded. Sorry!
i do believe i saw a post from FFG stating they will not have prequel ships in this game, that it was going to all be rebellion era
and that being the case, our best hope for prequel ships would be anoth flight path game called jedi starfighter, or something like that. this would be a stand alone game yet compatable with x-wing
