Don't be sad that it's over... be glad we have a chance to build it anew. We have a chance to build this into something greater than it was before. When the Jedi Order was almost destroyed by the Empire, it was rebuilt years later by Luke Skywalker. We have the rules to X-Wing. Most of us already have the models and dials. And by golly, we still have people who want to play. X-Wing will become the new BattleTech. Adored by fans, and created/supported/kept alive by the fans. To those who have 3D printers... you are like our Jedi. Able to bring to life ships we can't get from official sources anymore. To those who know the past and current rules and points costs... you are the Council. Able to rebalance neglected ships thar have yet to become 2.5, and are able to introduce new ships to the game, making sure they are balanced against current ships. And to those who are creative, we are finally free to be able to paint and fly almost any ship we want to in whichever faction color we fly in. Time for Scum and Villainy to cash in on old Clone War tech, as well as Imperial, Rebel, Resistance and First Order ships without worry of points or rules! May the Force guide us all into keeping this game alive.

Your take of how the history went is laughably off tune. Saying the problem is that players complaining about what we're clearly bad design is hilarious. But whatever game is dead now. It will be a nice artifact in the archives but that's it. Three years from now or so there will be a new game that's not compatible and the cycle will start anew

As someone who has been coming back to X-Wing for a decade this is so sad. While continuing to play with family and friends won't be hard, getting new people into the game is going to be insane. I work at an LGS in New Zealand and we've just been getting more interest in the game from new people and have quite a good supply of ships and kits on the wall. What would you recommend in terms of "stocking up" on product? Is it the time to buy all the ships/scenario packs you might ever want to avoid the secondary market prices?

Another fantastic video! Tie Fighters biggest weakness, for me, is their 3 haul. Compared to FO, they are much easier to kill. We see some attempts to solve this problem in the standard loadout pilots. In this case many of older pilots are just not the best option for their cost. In my opinion Empire lacks of named 2 point pilots like other factions have. This leads me to a hypothetical question. Which current Tie Fighter pilots would you like to reduce to 2 points? They should have similar power level like Sabin and Bossk.

I prefer FO TIEs when playing but, will use BoY TIEs when building Empire lists. I agree on the lack of 2 point pilots.

How viable do y'all think 7-8 TIE swarm is viable in 2.5?
@BatMando-Gaming
@BatMando-Gaming 2 ай бұрын
Personally, I think a 7 or 8 ship swarm can be risky and less rewarding because running into your own ships increases the amount of damage you can suffer before you get to shots. I am a fan of the 5 ship lists and think they are more viable in the scenario play. I do remember the days of the 8 First Order TIE Swarm and it was brutal.
@adammano4107
@adammano4107 2 ай бұрын
Good video! You showed some interesting 3-point pilots. For this type of content, it would be valuable to show the most common uses of the ship. In this case, it would be 2/3 points fillers. According to the Worlds, Scythe 6 is probably the best Tie Fighter for this role, but there are other options too.

Will have to give that list a go sometime soon. Looks fun. I like having Dutch for the extra locks, personally I would give him Concussion missiles rather then plasmas as he's usually my last or second-last ship to shoot but thats just my preference. Corran with R3 and Clusters is very entertaining to use. If someone wants a more 'Acey' list with X-wings I have had a lot of fun using Wedge (Plasma Torp, Marksmanship, Predator), BoY Luke, Wes Janson (Afterburners or Shield upgrade, Cluster Missiles or Mag-pulse, R3) and Ahsoka Tano in an A-wing (Concussion Missiles, Instinctive Aim, Brilliant Evasion, Predator)
