Episode 368 - Wisdom of the Ancients We got a little bit swamped with X-wing content with all the new releases coming out of the X-wing Alliance we completely missed a fantastic article friend of the show (and occasional target of our jokes) Steve Boulton wrote! Steve got several regular 'top' tournament players together and asked them a serious of questions to determine what makes a good player top tier. We were really impressed with the article and wanted to chat about. Thanks to Steven and Dylan for bringing it together. We round out the show with chat about the new releases and what we've been using. https://exilesquadron.com/xwing/making-the-cut/ Cast - Rich, Liam and Tim Producer - Tim Recorded 14/04/2025 via Discord Intro - Obi Wan 'hello there' from Revenge of the Sith Outro - ZZ Top - Sharp Dressed Man (Official Music Video) [HD Remaster] Used without permission - it's just for fun!
