Awesome!

So cool to see that the game is still building steam.

Rebel Aces are slated to show up in July / August.  Here's hoping they bring something of value to the game too.

B-Wings are already popular, and this set brings a new pilot to the fold that makes them even better:



This guy is an Ace in every possible way. You can change a normally negative stress token into a bonus focus token. Sign me up! Rebel Aces should be solid, if not a "Must Buy" for all Rebel players. Anyone looking to expand beyond their Starter kit for Rebels would do well by looking into this set as well.

Hey Everyone,

Going to be coming in this Thursday for my first X-Wing night. Can anyone confirm is it open gaming this week or the 100 point tournament?  I have some new ships on their way in the mail that may or may not be here by Thursday, anxious to try out a new Z-95 semi-swarm build.

Looking forward to a great night of gaming, see everyone there.

It looks like it should be a 100pt tournament this week (third Thursday of the month).

Don't take the word tournament too seriously, the community is friendly. :)

Remember everyone, this Thursday (8/7/14) is a 100 pt tournament. I'm looking forward to seeing some new lists and new faces!

Thursday night X-Wing has been hopping lately, with a lot of veterans getting games in as well as people learning the game. This past Thursday we had an Epic 300 pt game with the Rebel Transport.

Battleground has a couple of "upgrades" for our X-Wing guys.

Here's hoping you like them.

Those play mats were absolutely ON POINT. Love them. I'll be posting some pictures from the Thursday night activities later. New faces joined the veterans tonight and there was a great spread of ships tonight.

I counted exactly zero Phantoms or Falcons being flown tonight! International Meta be damned! We play by our own rules  8) . A lot of other wave four options were ripping around though. Two Defenders rolling with Howlrunner, Z-95's, E-Wings, and a Moldy Crow!

Pew pew pew pew pew, yeah I'm that guy who regresses 25 years when playing with spaceships and can't suppress the compulsion to say that way too much.  Really looking forward to my first X-Wing tournament Thursday night!
