How long until 2.0 becomes a bloated mess and we are calling for 3.0 or worse, pining for the days of 1.0? By the way? I'm loving stoked for 2.0 goddamn.

long-rear end nips Diane posted:Honestly the conversion kit will probably help me out since I'd rather go mono-faction anyway now that they're distributing upgrade cards in a sane fashion and I bet that kit will have a ton of 1.0 cards that came on ships I never bought. Ya, I intend to go full Galactic Empire with my alternate faction being Rebel Alliance. While I loved the idea of playing as Bounty Hunters and less savory fellows, I'd rather just stick with the two groups I'm most fond of. If later that means I get to extend into First Order and Resistance then I'll cross that bridge once FFG fill out those factions as well. Until then I think I might sell off my hanger of Scum and Villiany with 2.0 on the horizon.

Strobe posted:Hell, same. I'll probably have to wait until I see what Scum ships are actually good, and then just sell extra models to people who want to fill out collections. Probably a good idea. You just know the Quad Quad Jumper meta is right around the corner.

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.

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

That reminds me I better sell Palp before it's too late (if it's not already).

Speaking on Y-Wangs, is that a new sculpt I see? It looks beefier and the turret is more pronounced.

Any info on which ships are getting the medium base treatment? So far it's the Reaper, U-Wing, Punisher that have been officially mentioned right? What are the chances the K-Wing goes medium? TIE Silencer maybe? Scurrg? IG-88s?

Devlan Mud posted:If you consider having regular sized upgrade cards instead of mini sized upgrade cards considerably more content then yeah, sure. Considerably more packaging material too, maybe.

It only took 5 years or whatever for those rear shuttle guns to actually get the ability to fire. Not too bad.Cobbsprite posted:Lambda shuttle's dice don't matter. Its only function is as a Palpmobile. Surely you've caught a ship out of position with a 5 red die range 1 attack with a lambda? That poo poo melts.

That's kind of how the factions have always been. I want to know what their focus will be for First Order and Resistance.

Decided to read some YouTube video comments and drat, there are A LOT of mad YouTube people. It feels like they want to Battlefront 2 this poo poo but they just do not have enough people seeing it as a bad move on FFGs part (which it isn't, imho). FFG is not Electronic Arts. That doesn't stop them from getting irrationality angry over an edition update on a crazy popular wargame that started to burst at the seems from bolted on mechanics, FAQs and evident power creep.

Smegmalicious posted:That’s a gigantic palp nerf. Force tokens are underwhelming right now unless you either have a way to regenerate them quickly, like Luke, or unless there are going to be awesome force ability cards which we haven’t seen yet. I'm confused, why do you consider this a gigantic nerf? Palp regens one force token a turn.

# ¿ May 7, 2018 16:18 |

Do you have to announce that you're using Palps 2.0 ability before you roll or can you use his force token to modify a focus result after?

Ya there's definitely nothing wrong with spending money how they see fit in respects to Wang, it's just the childish reaction to the update that's insufferable. They chose to dump that much expendable money when they embraced the hobby, especially on that much extra poo poo that no one actually needs to enjoy the game, seemingly aware of what they were buying into. Then to turn around and be outraged like they've been done wrong by FFG because of the 2.0 update? Get hosed, you manchildren.

Yeah, I'm never going to willfully allow anyone I play to think that the painted TIE/LN is an FO. First it doesn't really serve any kind of advantage in doing so and second, it's just a dick move. On the other hand, I might use that LN as an FO, in which case, I'd make that pretty obvious with base token, pilot card, dials, etc and also with a cursory "Oh by the way? This TIE? The one painted like a FO *holds up spaceship* ...is actually an FO, not like last game where it was just a TIE" in a casual or tournament setting.
