Hi, I'm a local event organizer for X-wing and despite AMG dropping the game, it's far from being dead! There are thousands of people still playing and a group of veterans, playtesters and event organizers created took over development of the game - so updates, balance changes and new pilots are in the making!

@thewynnest 22 дня назад

That’s what we want to hear! Glad I picked it up. I’ll pin this.

@waynehaywood4904 24 дня назад

X-Wing got me into the hobby 6 years ago and I still enjoy it. I'll be playing it for years to come 😀

@thewynnest 24 дня назад

Cool to hear! Did you go beyond X-Wing and to other wargames later? Or just X-Wing for you?

@waynehaywood4904 24 дня назад

@thewynnest oh I went well beyond X-Wing 😆 Legion, Shatterpoint, Judge Dredd, Dystopian Wars, Bolt Action, The Walking Dead, Blood and Plunder, and more, and also into board and card games. But I always enjoy a game of X-Wing and it's never got boring. You're gonna have a lot of fun

@themaskedg33k 25 дней назад

Awww!! Nooo!!! STOP IT!!!! Watching this video is making me want to go up it the attic and get all my X-Wing out and have a game. Great video as always 👍

Thanks boss! And thanks for your advice on X-Wing in the discord 🔥🔥🔥

Excellent summary! Great to see more newer players interested in the game. :) If you're interested in getting involved with the community effort plenty of us content creators and various community led projects have their own Discord spaces. There's a real buzz around the game atm. It was kind of flatlining in terms of interest due to the player base not really jiving with the newer rules and game direction, but now we've got a community body leading the game we're far more confident about it's direction.

@thewynnest 24 дня назад

Thanks Nick, I ended up on your videos many times over the past two weeks! I’ll look for the discords; I’d love to get involved and give my (beginner) perspective on the game, if needed. I really enjoy the game so far! See you around 🤘

@Rage_TM 23 дня назад

Was eyeing up the products for X-Wing on sale at my store, wasn’t sure if I wanted to get into another game. This video made me bite the bullet. Shame Asmodee really made these decisions, hopefully the community can keep it alive.

@thewynnest 23 дня назад

Glad I ‘helped’ hahah. Seriously tho, it’s just a cool game to have on the side. And as far as the community goes, I think it’ll be ok. Good luck!

@Rage_TM 23 дня назад

@@thewynnest Compared to Legion and Armada, it was hard not to see it as a lengthy, big investment game since I didn't know much about it (especially coming from 40k). You made it seem like a quick and fun game, which I'm sure it always has been. Sometimes it just helps to see it in a certain way to make it appealing. Great videos though man, keep it up!

X-Wing was my gateway drug. The on-table look is amazing: Great ships and mats; just so colorful! I love the gameplay (v.1&2), and length of game. Sigh ❤

@thewynnest 24 дня назад

Cool to hear your story Peter! For me its feels like a nice break from having to assemble and paint lots of minis. I can just get some ships out on a table and get going. Refreshing!

@@thewynnest FB groups seem to be the ticket. But also, my thought process goes to. Ships will be around for a while. I've been buying up scenario and card packs "Battle of Yavin" "Pride of Mandalore" "Never tell me the odds" "Fully Loaded Devices" etc.. because I bet those are going to be harder to come by in the future than used ships will be.

@@thewynnest I know amazon has teh U-wing. Its a german first edition copy. But if you use Infinite arenas you can print the cards, dial and base tiles for them.

@kudosbudo 2 дня назад

Went on a buying spree just prior to the announcment. I think i'm just missing two shuttles, U-wing and the Alpha wing. My Naboo fighters are 3d printed and i'm gonna get a tie agressor thats 3d printed at some point so technically missing those. Basiclaly i can't find any of them even on ebay at least at reasonable prices. As for official current black box stuff in the Uk its basically nearly all gone now.

@superblue1971 3 дня назад

2.0 is the better version and is the dog fighting version. AMG turned the game into x-wing MCP and the new group that is taking over is going to push 2.5 and continue to push players away.

@kudosbudo 2 дня назад

Why would it push players away? I;ve never played 2.0. reading about it it has rule si don't really like. I've been playign 2.5 and enjoying it so far. The only thing i'm, nmot keen on is the way selecting loadouts and ships work. 2.0 looks bette rthere BUt BOTh games have issues with ships not being allowed thing they can use IN CANON so i'm probably gonna just ignore both and maybe make my own loadout list. Things like teh Head hunter literally having missile tubes on the model but not allowed to have missiles is so silly.

@superblue1971 2 дня назад

@@kudosbudo They completely changed the rules, gameplay and list building. Almost everyone I know that switched to 2.5 would go back to 2.0 in a heartbeat if given the choice. The only problem is the new design team will continue down the same path that destroyed the game.

@bobafett2243 22 дня назад

I will never invest in Legion, it’s just a matter of time before they abandon that game and community. Battletech, is one of those games that been around for 40 years. Good enough for me. F ass-modee and AMG. FFG was ruined by them.

@thewynnest 22 дня назад

Yet another game I’m interested in at some point! Although I hope Legion will still be around.

@kudosbudo 2 дня назад

After gong back to X-wing from battletech i really wish battletech had dials and manuevers. Its movement systems in classic AND alpha strike is kinda bad, unless you enjoying making conga lines.
