I love the app but I am no longer able to delete squadrons.I am on Android. In the past you had to slide the squadron in the list to the left, but now when you do a long press the squadron allows you to move it up or down to rearrange its position in the list. I was able to only see the side option (sliding left, copy icon appearing) only once. This thing is too sensitive now. Do you have the same issues? To app creator - is there any chance to make the squadron delete option easier to trigger?
Is anyone on the Legacy team working on any future custom content? Doesn't need to be ships, but even just upgrades or pilots to spice up the game.
It's no secret upgrades were nerfed in the change from 1st and 2nd edition - but it still feels like the variety of upgrade cards is anemic. The vast majority of cards came with the faction conversion kits.
I mean, aren't there literally only two turret options? I feel like custom upgrade content for nearly every upgrade type would be nice to create more list building strategies.
Hi guys,
My friend played lieutenant Sai beside a decimator (Morna Kee) with a tactical officer crew (so it coordinates with a white action) and a few TIE fighters.
Is this an infinite action hack??
Like, lieutenant Sai coordinates the decimator, the decimator coordinates a TIE fighter. Then Lieutenant Sai can coordinate the decimator again, so on and so on.
We can't figure it out with the rules, thanks for your help!
Sean convinced me to write about my draft league game from last night, instead of the other thing I was gonna write about. Enjoy!

Ive got a few questions regarding the quality of these builds:
Are they good competitively speaking?
Do they match the style of each faction? Ive got squads from 3 factions and I still don't understand the difference gameplaywise (if someone can give me a quick guide about them id be grateful)
Are they fun?
Are they balanced if we match point count on each team?
Thank you in advance for your help!
Edit: I meant the infinite arenas prefab builds 😅
Just got some new ships and my son and I are terrible at remembering every trigger and upgrade, so I’m going to do a 3 ship tournament with four different factions.
So for seeding purposes what ranking do you give these squadrons? Don’t worry about load outs, we’ll probably forget to use them properly anyways.
Empire: VT-49 TIE Decimator Rear Admiral Chiraneau
TIE Advanced x1 Vader BoY
TIE Defender Colonel Jendon BOE
2-Rebels: YT-1300 Han Solo BoY
YT-2400 Leebo Dry-Witted Droid
T-65 X-Wing Luke BoY
3-Resistance:
MG-100 Starfortress Edon Keppehl
Scavenged YT-1300 Rey
T-70 X-wing Poe Trigger Happy Fly Boy
4-Scum:
Firespray Boba Fett
Gauntlet Fighter Maul
Fang Fighter Joy Rekkoff
Just straight up battle, 2.5 points. Let me know how you would seed them, thanks.
I guess I have enough to play 1v1 with my friend haha. Quick question, does the epic battle set require every player to have a huge ship ? I didin't opened it yet
Just wondering if there's any 3d printing support for this game. My buddy and I are getting into one page rules, which he's printing minis for (just regular war gaming), but he and I really enjoy Xwing too.
I figure since it got cancelled, maybe the community has set up some printing support.
Thanks in advance
So I'm wondering if they will release a new & improved Star Wars space combat game at some point in the future. Are there any rumblings about that ?
IT'S BLOG TUESDAY!! 😁
I've got a game to talk about and it's a DOOZY!
Howdy!
Being an off and on avid kitchen table X-Wanger with a big 1.0 collection, I love the physical aspect of flipping through a binder and some stacks of cards and matching up stuff until the numbers add up. It's also so easy to have new or casual players make their own loadouts this way, its elegant and just works.
But man, some 2.0 rules look so niiiice. Movable arcs? The Force? Bestill my heart. But whats the deal with squad building? I either have to deal with an app or army lists, old school Warhammer style right? I have no interest in that. Now that the game is more or less dead; or once it is, the games balance will be settled soooo....
TL;DR: Does anyone have a source for 2.0 legacy pilots and upgrades with the point values on the card so I can bring the halcyon days of 2015 to the present day?
Thanks everybody, happy X-Wangin' ;)
On November 3rd, 2024 at 3:45 PM I accidentally dropped my recently acquired gauntlet fighter, snapping the female peg on the ship off. Thankfully, it was a clean break, so repairs shouldn't be too difficult. I have attempted to use some e6000 to permanently attach the stand to the ship to no avail. Soon, I will attempt to use some museum puddy to save this poor, innocent ship. I will update you all on the procedure soon. If you have any advice or suggestions, please let me know.
New points release and bug fixes, as well as a bunch of new goodies. As before, Online mode is still in development, please submit issues directly to the GitHub repo so that we can resolve them. I'll work on adding an in-game option for this later.

Hey guys, im kinda late to the party: I played X-Wing for the first time last week and was instantly hooked. I'd love to play Galactic Republic, so I checked if my LGS still had any models - and got lucky. They still have the follwing packs:
Eta-2 Actis
Guardians of the Republic Squadron Pack
Z-95
LAAT/i Gunship
ARC-170
V-Wing
Siege of Couruscant
Additionally, I was thinking of buying the Never Tell me the Odds pack for some obstacles.
A friend owns the Starter Pack, so I wont need the measuring tools or a game mat to start playing.
Will I be fine with that? Is there anything else needed to play? I'm really scared that someone else will buy the packs and I won't be able to get them anywhere, so I don't want to wait with the purchase for too long.
Thanks!
If you have a rules question, a question about the game or a small question about anything x-wing related, this is the thread for you.
If you have a question about what to buy, please check out the buying guide.
I’ve been lucky enough to snag a Gozanti and Raider, but they came with bases only, no components. I’m good so far as components are concerned, as I found a reasonably priced huge ship conversion kit (Amazon Germany), but what I’m missing are the scenarios that came with them originally.
I was wondering if anyone knew if there was a digital/ online resource for these?
I was thinking of printing out the maneuvers and taping them to the back of old MtG cards. Are there any particular sleeves or markers you like to use? Or a better homemade option for dials?
Ten Numb is the boss, goodbye Mando
In the past when people talked about the HWK-290 they were either talking about Dace Bonearm or Kanan Jarrus. Now that the Moldy Crow title card is available to all limited pilots, are people branching out more? Or are Dace and Kanan still the favorites?
Hey everyone!
Returning to Rebels with the Auzituck Gunship!
What are your thoughts about this ship? Who do you fly and what upgrades do you throw on? What are some of your favorite lists with this ship?
How has this ship performed in the various iterations of the game?
I'm still pretty new to the game and I'm trying to build an Empire vs Rebels collection I can use as a boxed set (treating it like a board game rather than doing tournament play), and I'm trying to pick out the best ships to get to fill out that collection. Does anyone have an updated buying guide for each faction? There's a super helpful buying guide linked in the subreddit wiki, but it hasn't been updated since 2020 (at least the Imperial one hasn't) and it seems to be missing some newer ships and one or two important errata.
Hey there! Before I go and print off my own, I was curious if there’s a good place to buy quick build cards. I bought almost all of my ships way back during 1.0, so I never repurchased things like The Falcon or The Ghost.
I already have the lists from the FFG website, so I know which ones I’m missing (and thus can even make my own, if it comes to that), but I figured I’d ask here first and maybe be lucky enough to get my hands on the real ones.
For my own sanity and OCD’s sake, I only have the Rebel and Imperial factions.
Title says it all. I hate the plastic bags. Takes forever to find the tokens I need to set up and keeping it organized after a game is a nightmare. Anyway to more easily store things so that you can pull the components you need quicker?
Does anyone have a link to spreadsheet that contains all of the items in the game? Ideally from both 1.0 and 2.0/5 or at least 2.0/5 and everything that was posted to 2.0 with conversions kits (was there anything 1.0 that wasn't ported?)
At the very least something that contains all of the ships would be great. Even better would be something with all the pilots. I guess all upgrade cards would be even better but I don't really need that.
I'm looking to track what I'm missing, what I have, how many of each I have, mismatches between number of dials and models etc. That was I can easily see what I can afford to sell/give away and what I still need to buy if I can get my hands on them *cough* huge ships *cough*
If there isn't anything out there then I can make something myself. That will be easy enough for tracking the things I do have as I'd just sit down and go through my collection one day,. But I'll probably mess it up a little trying to track the things I don't own, as I'd probably miss something online
I'm sure someone's made something like this, I'm just not having much luck finding it online. We're running a campaign with several players new to the game. I'm looking for an Excel/Googlesheet that has all the various upgrades available in the game, with restrictions listed and the full ability shown. I'd like to be able to send the other players chunks of it when it's relevant for them to pick something new, that I can pre sort and make sure they're not getting confused by upgrades they can't actually use. The 2 of us with ship collections can pass around our card binders when in person, but it would be better if we could have people picking their upgrades between games. Plus we're not really limiting them to only upgrade cards that we personally have, so a spreadsheet works much better for this.
Most of the squad builder apps will show you the ability but you have to click each upgrade to see it. Or there's the second edition fandom wiki but once again you have to click each one without a good way to sort by ship/faction restrictions. I want something that's easier to look over and see several things all at once. I'm finding lots of versions of the points lists from over the years, but nothing that has the card text in a column as well. Has anyone seen a good sheet that has all the official cards?
