FFG posted:The plastic ships from the Aces expansions (Imperial Aces, Rebel Aces, Imperial Veterans, etc.) will not be re-released in the game’s second edition. Some of the cards from these expansions will enter X-Wing Second Edition through the conversion kits, but the alternate painted plastic ships themselves will not be reprinted in the game’s second edition. Get your alt scheme ships while 1.0 supplies last! FFG posted:Furthermore, the Slave I will no longer be a part of the Imperial faction. Instead, the Slave I will be exclusive to the Scum and Villainy faction in X-Wing Second Edition. Haha literally no one ever played Empire Slave I anyway.

Imperial Kath was hilarious and I won't hear anyone say otherwise. (Overcosted by AT LEAST five points, but hilarious)

So is the Scurrg also Scum only in 2.0? I noticed there's no conversion for it in the Rebel kit.

ConfusedUs posted:Just a heads up, the conversion kit information (no details, just number of ships supported per kit (counted by number of maneuver dials per ship)) is back up over at FFG's site. Imp: Alpha Class Star Wing - now 3 instead of 2 TIE Aggressor - 3 instead of none Decimator - now 2 instead of 3. Rebel: ARC-170 - now 2 instead of 3 Scum: Seems unchanged.

The only ship from my current collection that I can see being an issue with the conversion is the X-Wing. Will end up with 5 models but only 4 with 2.0 dials/cards assuming I get the core set and the fix pack. And I can't see spare X-Wings being much of a thing. But 5 X-Wings might not even be an option in 2.0 so I guess we'll just wait and see.

canyoneer posted:So, we know that there will be 5 factions in this game very shortly (because resistance/FO are being spun out). Hey you're right. Dynamic balancing to allow for faction context is a super neat idea. And I'd also not really mind seeing prequel content. I own an ARC 170 because it was in the prequels. TBH I'm still kind of surprised FFG went to 2.0 before dipping into prequels - with every stretched EU nonsense Wave released I was sure they'd be forced to do Republic and Separatist material.

So from what I'm understanding all the old upgrade cards are now basically useless because they completely revamped everything and right now models are the only thing really carrying over?

The original-trilogy models, plastic bases, pegs, dice. Everything else is new. The sequels ships (First Order/Poe era stuff) will come later, but for now it has no analogue in 2.0.

The prequels flirted with greatness, but fell short while, figuratively, that greatness was within sight of the audience. That was their greatest sin.

There were good ideas in the prequels that could have been great with a competent writer and director. Lucas was far below that point by then.

Sure, nobody expected the A-wing 2.0 expansion to include ONLY the cards from the conversion kit. quote:BUT, there will be upgrade sets for the rereleased ships for existing players so you don't need to buy the new ship. Wait, so that A-wing 2.0 will also ship with an A-wing ONLY conversion kit? What would be in that thing? Just the material from the conversion kit? That plus the 2.0 expansion? Something else entirely? quote:They haven't come out with any details but they mentioned the possibility to have stuff packed together for the wave in a conversion pack/new ship cards + token pack. So a third, wave-specific conversion kit??

Smaller wave-specific update kits could actually work interestingly. Finding the right price point where they're still profitable is going to be tough though.
