Looks like it's a bullseye arc only, but still...I'll take it! 1 SuperWookie reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RebelProfundity 144 Posted May 1, 2018 Definitely not a hoax or troll, though I understand the reaction. The newly separated factions, the mandatory app, the redesigned turrets and arcs. All real. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PanchoX1 1,284 Posted May 1, 2018 so now all of the valuable alt arts are worthless. yay. other than that, it's pretty cool. but Honestly don't know what this is gonna do to our very young local x-wing scene. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It looks a lot like the new design structure they are working with are going to really change the game for ship's we've long known and loved/hated. I mean...in a very real way, it's like that shelf of models we all have are now suddenly all new ships. Like...we just got 50+ new ships announced. That we already (mostly) own. It's...fantastic! (Although I do think I'm going to have to buy 4 new Y-Wings to get that new mold...it looks pretty sweet) 3 TheHumanHydra, CoffeeMinion and klinger reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ficklegreendice 33,981 Posted May 1, 2018 actually really concerned about gencon pre-release and stock issues that FFG has famously had over the early wave reprints and even more recently with the first wave of Destiny this is probably going to be an infuriating transition when it comes to just getting the stuff you need to play 1 1 xanderf and BigBadAndy reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cuz05 1,765 Posted May 1, 2018 So..... everything but our plastic will be invalidated? •_• Sounds very promising. But my boys do love card based games. They browse the cards avidly between games. Sounds like they're gonna be demanding my phone even more ? Still, if I were other than a family based, kitchen table gamer, I'd probably be stoked. I do dislike the fact that everything has to involve a screen these days but I guess it makes sense in a competitive balance sense. Because ofc, EVERYONE cares about competitive balance... Yeah. I'm both pleased and displeased. It's confusing. 2 SEApocalypse and BigBadAndy reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also the maneuver templates don't look different - wish they'd include a 4-bank, but I didn't see it, I think? Not sure they showed that, sort of a lot to process. But, yeah, all the cards - totally different, now. Different information on them, used different ways, just...total change. (And note that the plastic changes, in some small way, too - new "medium" bases, which are included in the conversion kits) 1 1 takfar and Cuz05 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No more not being able to errata point costs and upgrade slots, thank god. Perfect. This is what I have wanted for a long time. Will make balance updates much more agile and cut down a lot on the need for annoying "fix" cards 4 BlodVargarna, kris40k, SEApocalypse and 1 other reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quote Everything that has transpired has done so according to my design. Your friends, up there on the sanctuary moon, are walking into a trap, as is your rebel fleet. It was I who allowed the alliance to know the location of the shield generator. It is quite safe from your pitiful little band. An entire legion of my best troops await them. Oh, I'm afraid the deflector shield will be quite operational when your friends arrive.

Would make sense given what they've just shown, and then have 7 factions in the game. I'm really curious how making the Resistance and FO their own factions is going to play out. QD no longer gets Palpatine. Obviously they're going to release a bunch of ships for then in Wave 2 of 2.0. 2 Alpha17 and Antipodean Ork reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ficklegreendice 33,981 Posted May 1, 2018 (edited) apart from stock issues (and probably balance **** ups), the only bad thing about 2.0 is I didn't even get to announce my alt art cards yet and they're invalidated otherwise, it's very exciting. So long, turrets! Ain't no one going to miss your poorly-designed asses!

DailyRich 3,346 Posted May 1, 2018 I wonder if they're going to move to a single card for a ship and pilot cards for the pilots. That would certainly allow for some more flexibility. 2 NotBatman and kaffis reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
