It looks like the Imperial Aces kit is not allowed in the tournament per the FF tournament rules as it hasn't been added yet to the approved kits list.

Just wanted to point that out as I had to go adjust my list for this coming weekend.

I am not going to horror this. 

People will be allowed to use the Aces if they'd like.  Fantasy Flight is notoriously bad at anything having to do with their product releases so it doesn't surprise me at all that they haven't updated a .pdf yet.

I emailed Fantasy Flight Organized Play and was told that it's INTENDED that the Aces not be allowed in the Store Champs.

SUPER LAME.

Yea - I heard somewhere they usually wait until after the tournament season is over before adding new releases to the event rules.

So does that mean Aces are in or out?  :o

They're out, which is an absolute travesty and I couldn't disagree with it more.... but the ruling came straight from the horses mouth.

That's exactly why I don't talk to horses.

Thanks for the clarification Chase.  Looking forward to the event!

I don't know, I think it's pretty fair, considering it's released in the middle of the tournament season. That way, tournaments aren't as swingy because you have new cards that no one has used, giving a possible advantage to those who could dish out the cash for the new set.
