Canonicity?

How should canonicity be determined for information contained on the cards in the X-Wing Miniatures Game? Random00021 (talk) 01:43, September 29, 2015 (UTC)

Relation to Wings of War?

Is it safe to say that this game uses the mechanics of Fantasy Flight's Wings of War? It's pretty obvious that it is at least based on the same rules and mechanics. Sverigesson 16:45, February 14, 2012 (UTC)

  • No, since it has not yet been released. We do not know what they will change or keep the same in regards to previously developed game mechanics of other brand lines. Therefore, any statement on that topic would be speculation—which is not allowed here. GethralkinHyperwave 05:11, February 15, 2012 (UTC)
    • Good call, guess we should wait until details are confirmed. Thanks. Sverigesson 15:06, February 16, 2012 (UTC)

Reference cite for Core Set using FFGXW template

The 2-player Core Set, which was the initial release of this game, is the first component and is therefore used as a reference in the FFGXW citation template. However, since the overall game is titled differently (by the company) than the 2-player starter, I move that we split this article into two articles: one for the game engine/brand line, and one for the 2-player starter. Can we have a consensus vote for this? This alternative would be to edit the template to have a special case whenever "Core Set" is used for the SET NAME variable, which looks complicated (at least, to me). If anyone knows how to fix that without changing the article, that would be great, but otherwise, this is the best idea I have. —GethralkinHyperwave 14:10, June 3, 2013 (UTC)

  • I would just split out the Core Set into a separate article and leave this as the "overall" article for all releases and information. I did something similar with the the card game. - Sir Cavalier of OneFarStar(Squadron channel) 14:17, June 3, 2013 (UTC)
    • Okay, I am working on getting it done. Thanks. —GethralkinHyperwave 06:01, June 6, 2013 (UTC)

New Ship in canon

So this month Fantasy Flight has announced that they are releasing a new product for the game. Someone even created a page already for the expansion pack: X-Wing: Imperial Raider Expansion Pack. I'm however more interested in the ship itself, the Raider-class corvette. In the announcement, FF said the ship was designed in partnership with Lucasfilm Ltd. so it has to be canon somewhere, right? In the new continuity or at least in Legends, maybe. The article even goes as far as to give us some insight in the origins of the Raider corvette in universe and some official artwork. Is this enough information to create a page already for the ship?

  • The page is at Raider-class corvette, and it's actually considered Legends. The ship information extensively references Legends elements, and uses the BBY dating system, which is exclusively a Legends construct. Cade GalacticRepublicEmblem-Traced-TORkit Calrayn 23:04, December 23, 2014 (UTC)
    • Thanks! I didn't find a link to it in the expansion pack page nor in the disambiguation page for "Raider". Time to add links for it in these places :D Xicufwm (talk) 23:38, December 23, 2014 (UTC)

FFG products and canon

I think this artical shoul be changed, or at least any ffg product page, to show they are canon. They are new sw products and each piece as well as cards must go through approval from ffg. They even gad things changed like the tie Punisher. LFL doesnt get involved much if at all with non,canon products, like old rep dlc, and they go through the same aporoval selection process hasbro goes through to ptoduce SW material and their stuff is canon.

They even made a ship with LFL to add to the canon but you people labled it as legends just because it refrenced legends. Well I fedl thats abad reason to kabel it legends because every new SW story refrences legends, by the agove oogic nothing new would be canon.173.28.94.220 09:41, December 19, 2015 (UTC)
