I don't always visit community.fantasyflightgames.com But when I do, I click on XG-1 "Star Wing" Assault Gunboat to see if it's been released yet. Now someone can put the above in a "I don't always" meme generator and upload a picture of it to this thread.

Another H-shaped TIE with a paint variant? I'll pass on this wave, and wait for the XG-1 Assault Gunboat.

If it's not a repaint of an H-shaped TIE, I doubt we'll ever see it

2 months ago I ordered 1 TIE Fighter online (won't say where but shipping was free...) , and instead of getting shipped one expansion, I was sent an entire box of 6 TIE Fighters! I called the company about it, and they said I could ship back whatever I wasn't going to use. Let's just say I told them that I could definitely find a use for all 6 of them Too bad TF's don't have any good upgrade cards

So even in a posts specifically about TIE S/F we still get a post about the Gunboat. Maybe we should see how much it costs to have it never released. I just don't get why FFG insists on releasing more TIE Fighter variants, when there's a bunch of other cool TIE and non-TIE ships. How many H-shaped variants and paint jobs do we need?

Another ship shaped like an H? I'll get 0, and wait for an Assault Gunboat. Because it's cool and isn't shaped like an H.

Why doesn't the Skipray Blastboat get any love?

If a ship moves through, or touches an asteroid and it rolls a hit or crit, do the shields absorb that damage? I was initially thinking yes, but then it occurred to me that star fighters might only have ray-shielding, which is useless against physical objects. Thanks!

Tell me in what business scenario it isn't good to sell a product that people want to buy and you can easily produce. Any decent company will be aware of the consumer's desires. We are not asking for a ridiculous (like space whales) or unrealistic (like a Star Destroyer) product , we are asking for a ship, just like any other there is in the game. It's simple: give us an inch, FFG, and we will buy miles. We're also not asking for another Tie Fighter...

Has anyone here tried to play Tie Fighter from GOG on a mac? I have a Macbook Pro made in 2014. I would also need to find an inexpensive mac-compatible joystick. Would a thrustmaster work? They're $18 on amazon.

I'm hoping the quad jumper is a bad joke and they're actually releasing the assault gunboat. Or a TIE Avenger or Skipray Blastboat.

Quadjumper? Seriously? My faith in FFG just got shaken.

Tell them to buy 2 Veteran Expansions and an extra Tie Defender and then play Imperials. Because TIE Defenders are just that awesome

Oh good, I'll have to participate sometime soon. Thanks! Which of those locations is closest to Schertz?

The upgrade for XWA is the only reason I want to get it. I dislike playing rebels, but if the graphics are pretty...

Forgive my ignorance, but how does this work? Do I need to purchase XWA through GOG? How do I then get X-Wing and TF? Thanks!

Wouldn't 2 TIE/fos be better to give target locks to vessery? Plus you have 2 PS1 blockers.

I would only get XWA with the upgrade (searched it on google). I need to order a joystick soon...

...Or become ultras of another ship. After the gunboat, it will be the TIE Avenger. Then the Missile Boat. The DX-9 transport. Then the R-41 Starchaser. The T-Wing. The CUV-1. The Muurian Transport. etc... Skipray Blastboat!!!

Get the Thrawn Trilogy! I read it to my wife to get her into Star Wars. It worked!

I live in the San Antonio area, and I put a digital thermometer in my car to see how hot it got. The thermometer read 140 degrees, and probably would have read higher if it didn't cap at 140. Guess reptile thermometer makers don't plan on anyone finding lizards that bask in 140 degree plus sunlight.

Has anyone said gunboat yet? But seriously, I absolutely love the TIE Defender. Flying around at high speeds, k-turning constantly, and getting focus and evade token each round suit my playing style. I just wish I had a gunboat or missile boat to fly with 2 TIE Defenders. Until then, I'll just have to fly my 3 TIE Defenders together.

Well, I think I'll wait for a Logitech Extreme 3D Pro or a Thrustmaster to go on sale on amazon or Best (Worst) Buy. I'll start with TIE Fighter off of gog, and then get XWA and download the upgrade. I'm all about the Imperials. It's a shame Thrawn died without restoring order to the universe.

I've seen some of the upgrades for XWA, and the graphics look amazing. But I briefly read over the story line and couldn't find myself getting into it.

Ok. GOG includes Defenders of the Empire expansion. I don't think I can use a Xbox 360 controller on my mac or on my windows xp pc. Thanks!
