They were demoing 2.0 at Origins. The new X-wing model is as perfect as you could imagine.

Aww yay! I know I'm probably like one of the only nerds in here who is all into the models vs the game itself lol - I'm like super tempted to try and sell off all my fancy painted original T65s and replace them w/ the new folding wing models when they come out haha

AndyElusive posted:Pretty sure it's red since that's the difficulty of the action standard reapers can take. Unless you have a tac officer on board, then the coordinate is white. I would guess it is actually a white coordinate. For example, the TIE Interceptor specifies red boosts or barrel rolls in its text.

Solo was a fun heist movie with some problems like all Star Wars movies. I'm OK with getting a 3rd Falcon.

Do you think they'll be releasing another rebel and imperial ship with wave 1 so scum doesn't have 3 ships to the other factions two?

I kinda really want to buy Saw’s even though I don’t really want to buy more rebels, because the paint job is  . Also articulated X-wing. And I really want to like the U-wing cause it’s ballin swing wings.I’ll probably cave and get the rebel conversion kit and Saw’s because I really want A-wings to be great again.

New Y-wing sculpt looks a lot better-proportioned than the old ones, in addition to the added detail on the turret.

It was the MVP in the demo game up on Covenant's site. The 90 degree rotate and improved timing of the title flip make it so the thing can almost always shoot.

I forgot it picked up red coordinate too, and can take tactical officer to upgrade it to a white coordinate. Makes it more viable as a support piece.

Hopefully there will be full packs for Scum Z-95s and Y-Wings this time around. I can't see why FFG wouldn't do it for 2.0.

Huh, i'm still very new to this whole thing so i would have assumed they'd stuff both sets of cardboard into the same box. Isn't that the case with the HWK and the Scurrg in 1.0? Or am i missing something here?

HWK was released way before Scum was a thing, so the only way to play it, the Y-Wing, Z-95, and Firespray as Scum was to buy the Most Wanted box set.

BuffaloChicken posted:I know the Rebel conversion kit content list was leaked, but it seemed like less pilots than I expected - I thought FFG said we'd wind up with more pilots than we had in 1.0? Having just 2 generics and 2 named for most ships seems lackluster. Any hints as to where more pilots will come from? AndyElusive posted:2.0 ship specific ex-packs. The recent FFG articles about the X-Wing and Y-Wing explicitly state "If you already own a X-Wing/Y-wing from the first edition, you can bring it into X-Wing Second Edition with the ship tokens, cards, and maneuver dials found in the Rebel Alliance Conversion Kit that will be available at launch. This kit includes all of the ship and upgrade cards available in the X-Wing/Y-Wing Expansion Pack." The articles then go on to show cards for pilots Thane Kyrell, Norra Wexley, and Evaan Verlaine - none of whom appear on the Conversion Kit contents list. Here's hoping that we do indeed see more cards in the Conversion Kits than the contents list is leading us to expect!

We definitely will see extra stuff - the pilot cards and base tokens for the new pilots in the expacs are in the conversion kits separately from the listed contents.

Yeah that new Y-Wing pilot (Evaan) from the article isn't in the conversion kit's list of components, but it's in the conversion kit in the separate 2.0 Y-Wing bag. I wonder how quickly they made some of these choices.

Yeah, I do wonder, and am concerned about, whether the extra baggies will be in all of the boxes. They seem likely to wind up mispacked and needing replacing a lot.

Expert handling has the word and symbol "Red [barrel roll]", on its requirement side. While Tactical Officer includes the word "Requires" before its requirement. So it seems they're already inconsistent in their wording in the new edition.

1.0 pilots from Saw’s Renegades. Both the cheapest U- and X-wings are 22 points. So 20 with refit. 5x large base ships has a hell of a lot of board presence.
