defkhan1 1,696 Posted June 5, 2017 Posted this to Reddit earlier but I figured I would get the word out here too. My C-ROC came in last night and the ship's baseplate is missing the blue line that divides the fore and aft sections of the ship. This is important because it makes it difficult to figure out which section of the ship can be fired upon. Different ship sections have different damage cards. This isn't intentional either, because the manual even mentions that the baseplate should have a blue line, yet all images of the baseplate are missing the line. Other people who have received their C-ROC also confirm that they are missing the blue line. It appears this somehow got through FFG QC and is present in ALL production models of the ship. Best thing we can do right now is let FFG know of the issue in the hopes that they send us a replacement. 4 D00kies, Odanan, GizmotronX5000 and 1 other reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zazaa 563 Posted June 5, 2017 Wow! That should be replaced by FFG for sure! Send them reclamation with photo. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
defkhan1 1,696 Posted June 5, 2017 Yeah, problem is it's not just me. Everyone who buys a C-ROC is going to get this misprinted baseplate. FFG's going to have to have some way of issuing replacements on a large scale. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ScummyRebel 5,353 Posted June 5, 2017 That's amazingly bad... And now I won't be in a rush to buy one. I'll wait for the fixed expansion pack and just not play scum epic until they get it right. 1 AngryAlbatross reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phoenix5454 334 Posted June 5, 2017 How did you get a C-ROC already? I thought they didn't start shipping till 6/8. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Khyros 4,236 Posted June 5, 2017 I believe the Apex of the arc is supposed to intersect the non-existent blue line. If I were you, I would go ahead and take a square, line it up with the vertex, and then make your own blue line. Of course that is after you submit the picture to Asmodee for an official replacement. 4 benskywalker, joeshmoe554, NotBatman and 1 other reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's probably simpler to use the Gozanti baseplate as a proxy while I wait for a replacement. I recommend that's what everyone else does as well. 2 Stoneface and Khyros reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Either his FLGS let the pre-order folks get it out of the box ahead of time, or he went to Amazon who is notorious for breaking the shipping date rules. 2 VanderLegion and Phoenix5454 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zazaa 563 Posted June 5, 2017 So anyone who have received C-Roc done reclamation to FFG on this matter? I'm wondering if they are all printed like this, in case yes, this is literally Epic fail! This bit bother me that those baseplates have gone through the QC! 1 gamblertuba reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marinealver 8,073 Posted June 5, 2017 Maybe they intend the arc to be the different sections. Making the Aft easier to hit than the Fore. Could be they just copy pasted the the rules on the manual and there should be an errata clearing that up. Well that's me playing the Devils Advocate, be it in the instruction manual or the tile production, there is a foul up on FFG's part some where. At least it isn't like GF9 where they don't give you enough components an sell enhancement packs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
