Figured I'd kick off this sub-forum with some news on the game.
U.S. release date is 10 December, according to Ares. Here are some game-play videos I found on YouTube:
Basic rules: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4uSzP_2E0w (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4uSzP_2E0w)
Advanced rules: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SD7hOx8Qa04 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SD7hOx8Qa04)
I gotta say, after watching the video on the advanced rules, I'm really excited for this game! Three thing that stand out to me initially: hidden damage, "altitude" adjustment, and the "tailing" ability. Should make for some interesting games!
I have the starter set pre-ordered from my FLGS...will post pics and impressions once I get my hands on it, and we'll likely review it on the podcast at some point.

Ares mentioned on Facebook that the Viper Mk VII is coming this summer as well, not sure if that's still the plan.
If you look here (https://www.wingsofwar.org/forums/showthread.php?31067-Cylon-Heavy-Raiders-and-Raptors-pics-and-prices&p=500862&fbclid=IwAR23-PTUPeBmM3llILqOqm4vRYRGvHBG3L3TpahGPHox4OVIbdCPNnM6Um0#post500862) you'll see that there are a few version of both. Interesting that there is an ECM version of the Raptor...
