 Being as this is not a Collectible Miniature Game, I can't see an expansion pack being that big of a draw for players.  Everyone attending will most likely have all they need and I don't see the appeal of opening an expansion pack and having all the players pick away at it piece by piece.  The only appeal I could see in winning an expansion pack would be to flip it, and I'm not really into that.  Rather would play for a cash pot in that instance, but hey this isn't Dreamblade.

What type of prize support would you really be expecting?

Hey Don, count me and Luke innnn.  I dont feel we need any major prize at the end.. just looking for some fun.  But would be willing to pay an extra $5.. no more than that.. Cant wait….  Also we would come sooner to get some practice games in if anyone is interested.

Do we have to pre reg to get in the convention or can we pay at the door?

 Either will work.  Glad to hear you can't wait, cause I can't either.

 Also of note, at Hammercon on Saturday afternoon/evening, another organizer is having two two hour sessions with six players controlling one ship each. I'm pretty sure he will providing the miniatures and building the fighters.

Hey Don, what are you going to do about the major rule differences such as double barrel roll or Garvans spending a focus on 0 roll.  Will the offical answers be out by the tourney.  Also how many round are you planning and how many players make the playoffs.  I would love to get there an hr or 2 before to play you or anyone else.  Up until now I have only gone vs my sons, and would love to see how others play the game.

Great questions Chris.

Unless something official surfaces before the tournament the rule will be No double barrel roll, Expert Handling is same as Barrel Roll, Garvin can't spend his Focus unless he can spend his Focus.

As much as I'd hate to discourage anyone from playing a Garvin build, because I think we are going to see a whole lot of TIEs.

 

I would hope you guys would be able to get there early enough to participate in the SWM Tournament at 9:00 am-1:00 pm.  Gerry is bringing some sweet swag for that!  So I'll be busy with that.  I'm sure if you guys show up early, you will be able to find like minded individuals wanting to get some game time in.

We only have a 4 hour block of time so we'll have to get it all in there.  With 8 players or less, it will be 3 rounds 1 hr +/- rounds.  9 to 12 players we'll have to do 4 45 minute rounds.  So no chance of doing a playoff, regardless.

We will not be doing the SWM tourney.  Are there empty tables anywhere to play at before or after the tourney?  Maybe a playoff can be played at one of those.  Since 5:30 is close to the end is there a event after the X wing?

 I think the con shuts down at 5:30 Sunday night.

 

Too bad you guys can't make it to the morning tourney, you Cook boys really know your SWM.   Well that will make it easier on the rest of us.

 

Thankfully FFG released an X-Wing FAQ today, so I can follow that and avoid disputes.

FFG FAQ says different so its safe to bring your Garvin squads everyone, he can hand out Focuses without actually using them.

 Can I get some confirmed numbers here people? These Hammercon organizers are pretty hung up on expected attendance. Thanks.

How many do you think Don.  Since there are no playoffs can we make sure that the 3 cooks do not face off vs each other?

See you for SWM!!!
