Wow...those are really really good.  Especially that B-wing ace....he is good, stupid good, bordering on broken, if not broken good.

Those rebel aces look awesome, and the a-wing upgrade cards are pretty cool too. Sacrifice the missile upgrade for -2 points, makes a prototype pilot only 15 points.

Great night of X-Wing at the Plainville store! The Imperial Aces were out in force, and they were a ton of fun to play with. Tetran Cowell is a BEAST.

Looking forward to getting some more games in soon :)

Is there an organized X-Wing event of any kind planned for this Thursday 3/27/14?
I know the tournament is this upcoming Saturday, and that it might impact the schedule of events.

Either way, I'll be there to play a game :)

Holy toaster, the tournament is this Saturday. Think I should play some games this Thursday, and pick up a Y-wing or something.

Edit: Monkey nut, stuff that's kinda important to do with the wife this Saturday. Ugh, kids these days right.

Thursday Night X-Wing was a ton of fun! Thank you to Matt for running the Trench Run event! It was very cool and thematic.

It was very nice to see so many games of X-Wing being played! I hope to see everyone on Sunday for the big event as well.

Another great night of X-Wing at BG Plainville!

It was great to see some Tie-Phantoms, Tie-Defenders, and Headhunters zooming around on at least one table.

So the summer OP kit is on the way.  I'm not sure when it will arrive, but I'm toying with the idea of hosting another Saturday or Sunday X-Wing tournament once it comes in.  Would people prefer this over handing the contents out slowly over a few Thursdays?

Hi Chase!

I am personally very happy with both methods. My only worry would be the potential that I would be unavailable on a specific date for a tourney. That certainly shouldn't sway things one way or the other though.

What an awesome Thursday night! 11 people showed up for the tournament and the Wave 4 ships were all over the place! A great group, and as always it is great to see so many fresh faces.

A very special thank you to Matt for running the tourney!
