Piratical Moustache 762 Posted July 30, 2018 (edited) Who here is a fan of the Bellator-class Dreadnought? 7200 meters is certainly a more achievable size than 19,000 meters.

Isn't Junior Assistant Vice Under-Moff Trudeau still in charge of any Imperial dealings with the Canada Sector. If so it's no wonder @Drasnighta hasn't been caught.

It has the 24 ship number tag but the Imperial II pack is SWM: 24 So its either 20... or 31.

Alpha Xg1 455 Posted August 2, 2018 Holy moly... What's going on here...? I'm out of it for a bit - talk of doom and gloom and RIP Armada and all. Nek minnut - KABOOOM! SSD! This is incredible!! Although - reality has sunk in and...well. $199 USD!??? What should I do, pick one up for a fleeting moment of bliss and then insta-death-by-Mrs. shortly thereafter? Or completely delude myself and pretend it hasn't actually happened??? It never ceases to amaze me how well FFG has treated us addicts fans. Interdictor - checked! Winged Liberty - checked! Assault Gunboat - checked! Grand Admiral Thrawn - checked! SSD! - CHECKED! How about Gunboat Squadrons for Armada?? Pretty please FFG! Dreadnaughts anyone? Hehe!

Nagasadow 17 Posted August 2, 2018 Ok, Ive seen some of the spoiler pics and Im ready for wild speculation. Defense tokens may be restricted to specific hull zones. So the nose may get a scatter while the broadsides dont. I also heard that it may include an A-Wing as a joke/movie reference which makes me think of a mechanic that may allow it better usability in fleetbuilding without A) Being OP or B) sinking all of your points into a single ship. Exhibit A: The "Hunted" cards from MTG allowed you to get a creature that was *well* above curve at the cost of giving your opponent resources of value approximately equivalent to the difference between your creature and its "true" placement on curve. This allows you to play things that are normally too big to be competitive without being OP, which seems to be the exact problem with the SSD. While Im not getting my hopes up for FFG to actually do something like this, I want to be able to say "I called it" if they do. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ironlord 933 Posted August 2, 2018 30" = 76 cm (roughly) = 1/25000 scale. Seems like a nice round number. And fairly compatible with all the images seen so far. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrobaFett 4,209 Posted August 2, 2018 67 Pages and we did it. I will say, I am proud of all those who never lost hope.

Ling27 924 Posted August 3, 2018 Im going to get one eventually, and paint it in republic colors. Maroon stripes on the side. One up the middle of the armor sections. It'll be great. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
