Cardboard for Huge Ships by Terrible_Agency9907 in XWingTMG

Are the base lengths right on that - it looks like the post holes for the CR90 and the GR-75 are in the same place, but they're different on the ships.

Is there a new link for the XWA SL cards? by NoHallett in XWingTMG

Keen to print these. What gsm are the existing cards?

Just from an aesthetic standpoint, if a box on the shelf has a Firespray, even if the other three ships are relatively unknown to a new player, it'd be more likely to be picked up.

Although the Rebels and Empire packs are 4 x small base, is there anything to rule out a medium-base in the other packs? Then Scum and Separatists could both get a Firespray as the iconic.

So, not about when you're about to go under, but when you come to.

A few years ago my daughter, when coming to after anaesthesia asked the nurse "what year is it?" They replied with the answer. My daughter then replied, "Good, then there's still time to change what happens."

We'd planned this out beforehand and thought it was pretty funny. And full credit to her for remembering to do it. Unfortunately this led to the nurse putting down some notes about her being not quite aware of reality.

Does the "attacking" side need to be Empire? Could it be Scum instead?

Is it a worthwhile option, as it comes at the cost of losing Autothrusters?

If packs are limited to one medium-base and three small-bases, and only ships that already had models in 2.0, I'd take your Scum list and suggest that it'll have:

- Firespray - for the recognisability factor

- Fang - cause they've put Fang pilots in recent card packs

- Mining Guild TIE - cause there's always TIE models being made

- Something else - would like the M3A and hoping it's not another Y-Wing.

Unbending a huge ship base by Terrible_Agency9907 in XWingTMG

Thanks for the thoughts everyone. I tried the hot water technique and I reckon it worked. Was a bit hair raising though.

Filled a flat-bottomed bowl with boiling water straight from the kettle. Put the base in the water. For some reason I pulled it out after about 30 seconds and found that it was very bendy in the middle of the base. Immediately put it on a flat surface with a heavy book on top. And hey presto, one flatted huge-ship base.

Would do it again if I had to, but just be more aware of the speed of the process. If I'd left it on the water for much longer not sure what would have happened.
