Lit Fantasy Flight Games and the Star Wars TCG

How does it appear in Rebellion? Does the computer automatically name ships when it's the antagonist - with Endeavor being the first MC80 ship it creates? Cos when playing as the Rebels - I remember it just using "Mon Calamari Cruiser 1, 2 etc" as titles, which you could change.

 

Exactly.

 

Yeah, as Wes points out, the game would generate specific names for ships of each class. Some of the other cool Mon Cal cruiser names included Autonomy, Democracy, Freedom, and Republic. The game also used prior established ships, so you could also face the Independence, Liberty, and Defiance.

So, I just realized that Lords of Nal Hutta has an entry for Ylesia. And, as I'm reading through the Han Solo Trilogy for the first time, and I know my players haven't, I'm considering writing them a campaign for their Force and Destiny characters loosely based around the Cult of the One, and figuring out Its Deal. Does anyone know of anyone having done anything like that?

How big is your overall Armada Fleet? I know you tend to collect quite a few of these based on past posts, so I'm curious at the overall numbers per ship. My current fleet is pretty solid, though I haven't bought as many recently, mostly because I rarely have time to play anymore (or when I do, no one around how is interested/knows how to play it). My current capital ship fleet consists of the following:

Rebel Fleet

• x2 Home One-type Mon Cal cruisers
• x2 Assault Frigates
• x1 MC30 frigate
• x3 Nebulon-B escort frigates
• x3 CR90 Corellian Corvettes

Imperial Fleet

• x1 Imperial-class Star Destroyers
• x2 Victory-class Star Destroyers
• x2 Gladiator-class Star Destroyers
• x1 Raider-class corvette

I'm gonna probably only pick up one each of the medium transport set and Gozanti set, they don't look to interesting. Definitely gonna get one each of the Liberty and Interdictor, plus one of these days I may grab one more ISD.

I have so many corvettes because of an amazon sale a while back where they were $7 a piece, so I grabbed 4 there.
It helps that I have been collecting since day -1. I've preordered all the Armada and X-Wing stuff since they were announced.

 

I have used them a few times, since they are a more malicious variant of your normal Slavers.

 

Good news for everyone worried about the lack of recent sourcebook announcements. Force and Destiny is getting a sourcebook for Jedi Sentinels, Endless Vigil. Personally, I've always found F&D to be the weakest of the three, but hopefully this is an indicator that more sourcebooks are on the way.

I don't know if this is the best place for this, but it is certainly the best audience: I made a bunch of custom Wraith Squadron cards for X-Wing. Are they usable? Do they make sense?

 

I'm hoping for more adventures, or at least non-class sourcebooks. TBH, I haven't even gotten around to picking up the last F&D sourcebook.

 

No mention about any new Force traditions sadly I would have loved to see some urbane Force user groups

Also:

Is not that the kind of thing the road to the dark side is paved with?

 

Yep, which is also why Qui-Gon should have been Dooku

 

I assumed he was sent specifically because he was the worst possible diplomat!

 

Meanwhile, I keep drafting my first adventure, and my F&D Game Master's Kit arrives tomorrow.

 

Hey, do any of the FFG rulebooks have stats for Reek?
This one:

Spoiler

Not this one:

.

If not, any suggestions for a creature that IS included whose stats you'd consider to be comparable?

 

Well, as I was picking up the last core rulebook for Shadowrun, I decided to go ahead and get Savage Spirits. New player races - Anx, Ithorians, and Quermians. Lots of animal stats, also a new Clone Wars era Republic starfighter.

And, yes, it included stats for the reek.

 

Afaik no.

Just have a look at other creatures and adjust from them.
The Cracian thumper might do as a base.

Now how did that get into my Amazon shopping cart? Oh $#@ help me I can't stop someone needs to interve

 

Somehow it already happened

 

Are FFG at Celebration in any capacity?

 

FWIW, the people doing the CE live stream were interviewing a FFG rep there today. It looked like they had demo games of X-wing and Armada set up.

 

Special Forces TIE preview for X-wing Miniatures:

They were listed as an exhibitor, so they have some kind of presence there. Haven't heard a peep about anything truly "new" (though the Endless Vigil announcement seems timed to it).

Could also be that they're waiting until Gen Con (or a lesser chance of SDCC) for any big announcements.

 

I attended their panel at Celebration last Friday and their newest product is going to be "Correllian Conflict", a campaign expansion for Armada. Basically, it's a series of missions with new objectives and tokens etc. I can't remember if ships come in the box.
