    To be fair, one of the longest threads in the Xwing forum was for the Assault Gunboat, their long-desired starfighter, similar to the beloved Armada Dreadnought or ISV, for those inclined to look for support ships instead of turbolaser filled broadside combatants.

    I suppose we can allow pictures of the support variant too. Whatever gets us to 400!

    Always loved to see these posts. Here's hoping to see you after the jump, wherever that is. If you figure out which port you're most likely going to call home next I'd love it if you shared it here so we can all join in again. I think I'll be over in the BGG forums personally but I think it will take a month or so for everyone to find where we are going to land.

    Thanks again Cubanboy for the optimism, the discussion and the laughs.

    I recommend the Board Game Geek Forums: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/163745/star-wars-armada/forums/0?pageid=1&sort=active

    They're active (although not as active as here). They've been around for a very long time and I doubt they're going anywhere anytime soon. And best of all, they're free!

    Seconded. I used board game geek frequently and the forums are easy to use. Not to mention a bit less wild then reddit 😉

    Might just be a variant of the Nature's Ire expansion from the description- but with some nice special bits like dice. Could be a very long shot, good luck in your search. Maybe ask some game shops as like you say there may be a shop that's had it gathering dust as they no longer use it.

     

    Special bits are very nice though.

     

    Luckily I do have a copy of Nature's Ire already so this really is about the nice bits. I have a set of the acrylic health tokens from the other game night kit and was able to find some nice fatigue tokens from a Spanish etsy supplier but I would love to get my hands on those sweet official ones. More dice never hurt anybody either!

    I'll keep up the search and update if I'm successful. I agree a dusty corner of a game store is my best chance so once I'm able to travel around a bit more freely that will be my new excuse to divert to game stores when the wife and I are on trips.

    Hi Guys,

    I've been trying to round out my collection but there is one item that has eluded me, a copy of the 2014 Fall Game Night Kit.

    https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgameexpansion/163978/descent-journeys-dark-second-edition-fall-2014-gam

    I was hoping someone might have one they are willing to let go and/or know a shop that might have one sitting in the back collecting dust... long shot but I figured if anywhere had a lead it would be this forum! If you have one you are interested in selling just shoot me a PM and we can chat more.

    Thanks!

    Love those CIS ships! They look so awesome, can't wait to field them! 

    Alas, i need to buy multiple starters to have more munificents...

    I'm thinking that they may be thinking of doing something like they did for x-wing with special painted ships being available in specific packs. That would mean they wouldn't re-release THESE specific ships but they would put out the exact mini painted differently as individual releases. That was my thought at least from seeing the art of the Acclimator without the fleet markings on one of the cards.

    Do we expect to see N-1 Starfighters in the Republic squadron pack?

     

    I know it wasn't part of the GAR, but it's such an iconic ship from the prequels, I can't imagine them not being present.

    I'm going to guess Republic Squadron Pack 2. I think the N-1 fits in well with the idea of less common fighters that appeared in the Rebel & Imperial Ship pack 2. I agree it is too iconic to skip but I think FFG will want to use their first squadron pack to focus on the core fighters of the Republic fleet which will help to define its core a bit more clearly.

    Another Medium for both factions. The imperials could use something in points between a Vic & Arq and the rebels could use just another Medium.

    But as for changes rather than release, I would like to see Imperials get access to fleet command slots on something smaller than an Imp Star. Flag bridge definitely gives more options but is only single use. If the rebels can use a pelta how come I can't use my Vic to lead my task force?

    Also, I always love these threads Cubanboy, keep 'em coming. 😃

    @Arknur - Mel has minis in multiple scales and most (if not all) of his 1/47 minis are also now in IA scale after this awesome update. If you see a figure you like in the 1/47 scale if you copy its name and do a quick search you should be able to get results for each of the scales it is in, just select the one whose name includes (IA) in the title.

    Just wondering, which miniatures you want that are not in the Imperial Assault section?

    Hi Mel,

    I'll second the call for any of your Mandalorian minis, but I also was looking at some of your EU minis. Specifically Kyle Katarn (what? no Jan?! 😉), Mara Jade, and Jaina Solo.

    Hello Everyone, I'm getting close to finishing out my Imperial Assault collection so now I'm turning my gaze towards third party miniatures. My favorites so far have been from the EU & Rogue One sculpts Skull Forge Studios & Mel Miniatures. Unfortunately most of the sculpts that I like fall under the "Legion" or "1/47" sections of their Shapeways stores. My question for the community then is, has anyone purchased any of the Legion or 1/47 scale miniatures from either studio and if so how do they compare to the IA sculpts?

    Thanks in advance!

    That actually contains a lot of info. Pretty much confirms Torrents, Venators, Obi-Wan in the core release. At least I hope 🙂

    Sadly, I don't know if that is the case. We also have art of the Corellian Gunship in the slaved turrets alt art without it being released. Though I would love FFG to prove me wrong!
