    Umm... Dark Elder and Elder are not mates.. and they are closer to chaos due to the affiliation with slaanesh... that is right isn't it?

    Thats actually completely incorrect. Their empire was pulled into the warp because their hubris created slaanesh. They live in the webway and extend their lives as long as absolutely possible to forever avoid the pull of slaanesh. This is also why they no longer use their psychic abilities, fear of its connection to the warp. Ultimately this is the only connection that doesn't make sense, every other connection has basis in the table top game and the fluff (maybe not Orks and Chaos but really Orks will ally with anyone they don't feel like killing).

     

    I think that Necrons and Tyranids were probably left from the base game because of the way that they would mess with the ally wheel. No one allies with Tyranids... so that doesn't change the wheel at all. And Necron basically will ally with anyone who is convenient in that moment but only if absolutely necessary, so really they don't have allies.

     

    I think the base factions make most sense. And also *ahem* Tau is a very popular faction that peaks the interest of many fans of the universe.

    I would keep an eye on meeplemart. They seem to get stuff semi regular, they have a good discounted price, and they have flat rate shipping so if you order like 4 or 5 small ships at a time you get your order around retail depending on where you are in the country.

    I think the problem is their is seemingly no moderation in this forum. If you go to the forums for other games you will actually find posts that a pinned with things such as frequently asked questions, guides for new players, player resource pages, and so many things like that. I've been to sections of the FFG community that have like 10 sub forums. I'm not really sure why x-wing has never been given the same attention.

    Lol I was teasing. I long ago resigned myself to people saying things such as "The US, Europe, Asia, Etc..." opposed "North America, Europe, Asia, Etc..."

    So I know its still a ways a way but I wanted to ask if anyone if planning to go to templecon in February and what FFGs showing at the con is usually like. For many gaming companies this is the first big con of the year and is used to launch their new tournament seasons so I have been assuming a company like FFG will have a big presence but to be honest when searching around the net I haven't found much.

     

    Anyone know what templcon is usually like for the FFG range of games and if there will be an x-wing tournament?

    I wonder how a buisness becomes consitently late with such things. You'd think they have done it enough times now to at least announce more cautious dates or just hold off altogether. I think that's the most annoying part, just don't say anything until you are *sure*. Especially now that it's a pattern. Still, I know nothing of the buisness. Were the Wings of War planes well painted? Maybe it's because they're hand painted? I'm all for fast releases but I'd admittedly not want them coming from some sweatshop in China just to shave some time off availability.

    I'm pretty sure they already come from a sweatshop in china. Painters who actually get payed what they are worth charge at least $15 and hour if not something more like $30 or $40 and I'm pretty sure we aren't even paying $15 an hour in painting cost for these.

    I think the rarity is fun for the acrylics, specially for people who spent alot of money for them, or won them. If they do a print on demand style acrylic set they should change color or make them double sided to at least show that set is part of the purchase and not the hard to find promos.

    If that's what it took, I wouldn't have a problem with this. Gives us the official product we want, yet doesn't take away from the prizes of the events.

     

    I think this would be the ideal. Having sets that are evidently prize pack sets and then ones that you can buy. If FFG put out their own set of acrylics I would be all over it. I don't have the money to buy prize acrylics off of ebay and I joined way to late in the game to get them from actual tournaments.

    Do we know how cheap he is? I would hope he is 21pts. Paying the same cost as a Saber and loosing the EPT to gain a pilot ability and a pilot skill may sound like a steal but would you really pay 22pts for him when you could get a royal guard pilot instead?

    Yep if you want numbers and are not planning to equip a EPT anyway, 1PS in exchange for his ability is not bad.

     

    Thats fair I guess. I personally love the RGP but thats just me. I will be hard pressed to buy him if he is 22pts, if he is 21pts I would use him sometimes.
