Armed with this newfound knowledge hosts Ryan, Dee, and Dallas speculate what kind of beautiful goodness is headed our way later this year...well...maybe. They also discuss the average speed of FFG's cargo boat and if we would be better off giving our stuff to Pilgrims to ship for us.

1 hr 27 min - MP019: Art of X-Wing Returns! Variance!A certain Podcast host won his home Regional and has managed to grow even more insufferable. He boasts, rants, then attempts to share some actual X-Wing insight on the topic of Variance. We’re fresh off participating in the San Diego X-Wing Miniatures Regional at At Ease Games, and Mynock Squadron had a solid showing. Ryan defends his podcast credentials, Dallas trolls his way into the Top 4, and it’s an all Mynock final showdown between John Davis and one of our Hosts! Did Ryan make good on his promise to win? Today you'll also hear Dee utterly fail to keep his ego in check, and also self-righteously soapbox at FFG forum posters who dared to have the temerity to complain about Regionals. Eventually, he gets around to sharing what little knowledge he does possess regarding the topic of Variance, and how to strategically approach it. (Dee is growing to love referring to himself in the third person, as Dee is the exceptionally handsome and intelligent paragon, in whose presence greatness can palpably be felt, who wrote this show descriptor.)

In a land filled with U-boats and saggy old Emperors, one man continues to fly what some consider the "purest" X-Wing squadron...the TIE Swarm. As per the Mynock creed, Dallas Parker [Texx] continues to stubbornly stick to his guns when it comes to his favorite archtype. As fate may have it, the "Crack Swarm" has vaulted to the top of the meta, and we have the man, the myth, the legend on to discuss it.
Also, we find out just how many snacks can fit in the NEW MILLENNIUM FALCON! That's right, Heroes of the Resistance has been announced and we are eager to share with you our thoughts on just how good it can be.

1 hr 6 min - MP015 - A-Wings and a Prayer
With the first batch of X-Wing Regionals in the bag, we examine successful squads. The first half-dozen Regionals of 2016 are history, and the environment has been defined (albeit not conquered) by "U-boat" Contracted Scouts. In their meta-shaping wake, a variety of Imperial Aces contend with TIE Crack Swarms, tanky Rebels, and... A-Wing Swarms? And just so we aren't COMPLETELY useful, we close by quibbling over rules and stirring the drama pot.
