Inspired by the autism in the last thread: what's the best, worst, or craziest character someone in your game played (or tried to play)?
For me, best was the chainsaw-toting ewok, and worst was the cannibal sex slave for customers with a vore fetish.
Owen Barnes
Best: Jedi Toshiro Mifune Worst: Twi'lek grey jedi who seduces her way out of literally everything because muh no attachment means I don't care (pitched in an online game, thrown in the trash) Funny how that goes
Brandon Nguyen
Just read the pic about clone wars and I feel like watching it. Should I?
Kevin Cooper
Yes. It's very hit or miss. But if you've seen the guide, follow it and give it a go. It's well worth it in the end.
Jaxson Perry
Yes it's good. I was put off by the animation style and loyalty to the 2003 one but once I started watching it it was really great.
Jackson Gray
I only just picked it up a couple of weeks back for that exact reason. Basically, yeah, go for it. It's pretty good stuff. Some episodes are duds and probably worth skipping, but I've been watching it all and Im enjoying the experience all told.
That said, Jar-jar episodes get a hard skip.
Noah Wood
>skip Shadow Warrior and The Disappeared
Why would yousa do thissen to youself?
Adrian Fisher
Clone episodes are great, Bounty Hunter episodes are great, Ventress episodes are great, Plo Koon episodes are amazing, Ahsoka episodes are kinda meh early but really good by the end, Obi Wan and Anakin episodes are hit and miss, Padme and Jar Jar episodes are all trash.
Cooper Sanchez
I get too annoyed by him going full 'do something retarded but its magically useful and perfect for the situation!'.
It really bugs me.
Jordan Diaz
The only good things in those episodes were a couple scenes with Mace and the part where Jar Jar just runs up and clotheslines a kid.
Parker Howard
Clone episodes are easily the best. Especially the final arc in the sixth season with Fives.
Camden Watson
Shadow Warrior figured out how to make Jar Jar funny: have him bug the shit out of General Grievous.
Also, Tarpals being a fucking badass.
HOW DOES IT FEEL TO DIE?
Jack Johnson
>It really bugs me. It bugs everyone
James Sanders
Also, wew. Open-world star wars space sim when. Also, what does everyone think about Quinlan Vos?
Dominic Miller
Quinlan Vos sucked
Chase Butler
What are your X-wing predictions for wave 11?
Since Disney is fully in control, i'm not sure what sources they can draw from still.
I know we will be getting First Order TIE Advanced, Bombers, and Interceptors, along with Resistance A-wings after episode 8 though.
Leo Rogers
>Open-world star wars space sim when When the very concept of an open-world space sim becomes feasible beyond over-scoped disappointment. Alternately, whenever Chris Roberts gets done with Star Citizen. If it's anything like Wing Commander, it'll be Star Wars with the serial numbers filed off.
Wyatt Jenkins
No he didn't. He is probably one of my favorite jedi though.
Jacob Ortiz
New E-wing, Rebel Y-wing, and Rebel Z-95 upgrades/pilots Something to make T-65 generics worth the price Pinook Sienar Fleet Systems Build-a-TIE box
Isaiah Jenkins
Hope they introduce thrawn maybe, and the yuzhaan vong.
Christopher Lewis
>Also, what does everyone think about Quinlan Vos?
Julian Taylor
Topkek. I don't understand the hate for him. Also, does anyone remember how everybody was all riled up because of finn. Topkek.
William Rogers
>Vong Most of XWM's tech hasn't even moved out of the GCW. The T-70 is considered outdated by sequel era standards, too. How would you even balance the Vong and their black hole bullshit against GCW-era stat lines?
Mason Taylor
What will the T-65 fix be? My guess is free/discounted torpedoes, and access to Not-A-Wing-Test-Pilot
Aiden Rodriguez
>I don't understand the hate for him It's really for John Ostrander
James Howard
A relatively cheap generic with a fancy-sounding name like "Rogue Squadron Pilot" and a native EPT, maybe? Chaardan-esque point discount? Free improvement to movement dial/action options?
Asher Perez
24 point PS 5 elite generic is a given.
Will their Torp slot be a Refit or give a free Torp?
What properties do they even have to work with for ships now? Rogue 1 and Rebels I guess?
Rebels had an Interceptor and a Defender, who is ready for Imperal Veterans-2? Comes with Royal-er guard TIE, TIE/E and TIE/x8 titles.
Ryder Jenkins
There are some meh and trash episodes but on the whole TCW is top tier. Ignore any retard who tells you to use a viewing guide. Only guide you need is the chronological guide since the series was released out of order.
Nicholas Butler
If past Scum releases are any indication, then Legends is still a valid source. It would be financially unwise for Disney and FFG to completely bin Legends anyway--it's an easy source of free starships, pilots, names, and tech.
Christopher Long
Wave 9 was when disney fully took over.
From that point onward, no legends stuff.
Jayden Ortiz
No. The Vong are dead and should fucking well stay that way.
Carson Johnson
From the looks of it, it's less legends is 100% gone and more like it allows new writers book and film to steal from and make reference to.
Jose Scott
What are your hopes or guesses for the next X-Wing kits?
Isaac Rivera
That was literally what they said on the day they announced the Legends split, that the material and content of Legends was still there to be used as a resource and as inspiration for writers for new material.
Kayden Brooks
Fuck the Vong. They're the worst thing to happen to Star Wars since Jar-Jar Binks.
Parker Myers
>Also, what does everyone think about Quinlan Vos? I liked his The Dude take in TCW, all his other appearances made him to serious and angry.

It would be nice to finally get Nym.
Sebastian Morgan
it'd be nice to get Nym and his ship is the only one in armada and not in X-wing. I figure he's got to be soon.
Andrew Price
>TIE Defender Darth Vader
Jesus Christ
>T-65 Baron Fel
Sure, if he can be an Imperial ship. Its only fair considering Rebs already get our icon.
Hunter Flores
While we're at it I'd like to see the rest of the Sienar circus
Sebastian Jackson
>if he can be an Imperial ship Man, have I got some bad news for you, user. Look on the bright side. Instead of stolen Rebel craft, Impside gets crazy shit like Missile Boats, Scimitars, and experimental TIEs.
Benjamin Richardson
I've read the comic, I don't give a fuck.
Imperials need to shit on the Rebel parade once in a while.
Maybe we can get a Wedge TIE fighter (it was also in rebels after all)
Lucas Brooks
>Wedge TIE fighter I think you mean "Kettch TIE Interceptor."
John Robinson
Which it is. Rebels brought back Thrawn. And he's getting a novel by Timothy Zahn very soon.
X-Wing has released canon stuff in the last few waves, sure. There's a lot of high-profile canon stuff to get through. People are more likely to buy shit if they just saw it in a movie or on TV. But we've gotten through most of the Rebels-exclusive ships now, so they're out of those and will have to go for Legends stuff. This year, The Last Jedi is coming out, which will probably just use all the same ships from The Force Awakens, so FFG will have room to use Legends stuff (unless The Last Jedi isn't creatively bankrupt like TFA and gives them more ships to work with).
At the same time, I would like to draw your attention to the fact that they've done an incredible number of Legends ships already. They're scraping the bottom of the barrel for this era so hard they found the K-Wing and the TIE Punisher. The only Legends ships from this era that I can even think of that they need to release and haven't yet are the assault gunboat and the missile boat, and I'm sure they're on the way.
Mason Turner
The Last Jedi has First order versions of the
TIE Bomber TIE Interceptor TIE Advamced
And a Resistance A-wing.
Benjamin Reyes
do they at least look different or is it literally just the same lazy color swapping?
Hunter Rogers
Here's the First Order Tie Advanced.
Next Pic is the interceptor.
No idea what the Bomber will look like.
There are photos of the A-wing in both comics and one of Prince Harry sitting in a prop one on set.
Charles Price
And the Interceptor, this one has multiple photos, but this angle/lack of background are the clearest.
Blake Howard
That image has been reposted multiple times in these threads, and not always designated as a TIE Advanced knock-off. What evidence is there that this is FO's real superfighter and not just fanart/headcanon?
As clarification, it's concept art that was leaked alongside an image that turned out to be of Ello Atsy,
So if the source is still good, it's a FO TIE Advanced. The Interceptor is concept art of TFA, and the bomber is a leak from some toy fairs.
Austin Gray
If these are legit then it's nice that they at least look different but I kinda hope they don't get fast laned into X-wing since they don't look different enough to not just be +1 shield, tech slot and t-rolls/sloops that the FO fighter was.
Kayden Jackson
Does Armada see reasonable levels of play, or is it pretty much dead since it's almost directly competing with X-Wing?
Brayden Reed
Do we have a photo of the bomber?
Matthew Campbell
Its pretty dead. It still exists and I've seen some games at the local store but nothing like x-wing
Juan Jones
at least these are actually different and not just repaints.
Jaxson Parker
I'm not an armada player, but from what I've heard, people grumble about it taking up too much space - not every FLGS has tables big enough, leading to it not catching on everywhere.
Adrian Cruz
Real talk?
I love this design. It's like a beautiful love child between a interceptor and a Defender.
Really hope FO design starts pushing for the opposite theme than Empire. Given their reduced man power, resources and training from birth they probably need to switch roles with the NR (being an efficient, elite strike force outmaneuvering their larger clumsier opponent).
Really too much to ask though, because they don't ever want the "good guys" to not be the underdogs.
Daniel Rogers
So text roleplay voice OOC games seem to be the preference for FFG. How do I manage a text roleplay game though? I've only ever run voice campaigns for FFG, and I'm confused as to how to properly do text for RP, though I can see that it would provide a lot more depth to the environment and fix the issue of trying to do voices for aliens and shit for muh immersion.
Asher Edwards
You type stuff instead of saying it out loud...?
Sebastian Diaz
Dead, partly because of competition from X wing and partly because of problems with the game itself (steeper learning curve, higher initial cost, requires more space, longer games, less model variety, fewer factions). All this is ignoring the balance issues and rebel bias that has saturated the game for a while now.
Jose Morris
How do we go about the party taking turns to interact with things?
Would they get bored?
Noah Martin
I adopted x-wing, my friend adopted Armada.
Feels good to be on the right side of history, for once. That's why I play Imperials
Sebastian Hernandez
Here you go!
Kayden Walker
It's really just the same as voice my dude except you don't have to do accents and shit. They shouldn't get bored (unless they would be getting bored in a voice game as well).
Owen Gray
Do you think the G-1A is a good ship for a hick sheriff that lives in a swamp town? I'm divided between that, Z-95 Headhunter, Kihraxz Fighter, and Y-Wing.
David Flores
>mfw those are my ships
oh and here is a striker repaint i did
Michael Long
Oh really! Could you take another group photo with the FO Striker? These are my color-coded BroBots.
Leo Clark
It's pretty fitting, and it's a very good ship to boot.
Nathan Wilson
Of those options, I'd pick the G-1A.
Have it be in the condition of, and painted like, the stereotypical hick Sheriff's 4x4.
Aaron Gomez
I also do custom cards.
Carson Anderson

Daniel Ward
>Ignore any retard who tells you to use a viewing guide Yeah disagreed, hard. The viewing guides miss a few good eps but overall I didn't gain too much more by going back and watching arcs I'd missed.
I know I'm late with this but HOLY SHIT THAT REBELS EPISODE.
You can really tell they saved a lot of budget for this one, the particles and effects were great. Mon Mothma was great. Gold 5 is a goddamn hero. The only flaw was having Gold Leader be completely subordinate to Ezra and Hera, he never showed any confidence in himself or gave orders, and hesitated about possibly shooting Ezra when he'd seen three other fighters get murdered. It seems inconsistent with his(limited) portrayal in ANH and R1, where he reacted completely calmly even when shit hit the fan.
But hey, we got Y-Wing action and Ion cannons are canon again.
>Custom species. >Fanon home planet. >Unpronounceable name. >Rubbed elbows with Sora Bulq, Quinlan Vos, Coleman Trebor, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Mace Windu. >Had dual lightsabers in special colors - dark green and amber. >His combat abilities were the impetus for the creation of Separatist Commando Droids. >Led an ARC squad and trained multiple padawans.

I'm not fucked at all. I'm a Mary Sue.

Julian Walker
This was probably my favorite episode of rebels, so good. Yeah it would've been nice to have Dutch be a bit more independent but I think it all worked out in the end.
Now I want more nebula X-wing maps and a way to run the Y-wing that isnt just TLTs
>X-Wing Ace >GCW veteran >Bacta Allergy >Survived the vong
possibly fucked, I'd be able to handle myself in space combat, but If I'm injured to a degree that requires treatment the bacta allergy could mean big trouble
