I haven't seen any rumors that FFG is considering doing one for Imperial Assault but I know a lot of people were saying the said the same thing you did right after Road to Legend went live. I can't imagine it would be tough for them to do an app for Imperial Assault and Imperial Assault is a game that still has a lot of hype around it. In addition to my issues with Descent, I also own Imperial Assault and of course have not played that either (because I have more money than sense, possibly more "hope that one day I'll have friends who will want to game with me" than sense also).
I don't think I will need to buy any of the additional in-app Descent campaigns any time soon but I would pay for an Imperial Assault app day-one. Here's hoping FFG is looking at releasing one.
EDIT: Not news, but here is a thread on the FFG forums with people expressing their desire for an IA app:

So FFG at the very least is aware that people want one.
EDIT 2: Just found a thread on BGG where people were discussing potential problems with licensing. FFG doesn't have any license for digital games and it could be tricky if the app was considered a game. They already ran into a couple issues with IA and how they don't have the license for board games. Maybe it could be hashed out easily between Disney and FFG or it could have already been worked out or accounted for, but licensing problems was something that did not even occur to me.
I'm hoping to get some games played next week. I didn't go to the local store for board game night last week because I didn't want to play Clue. I didn't go this past Tuesday because they were playing some CAH-esque game called Red Flags and I didn't want to play a game like that in a group of random people where I wouldn't know what kind of sense of humor they had and what they would each be comfortable with. I did stop in for X-Wing night last night because I really want to play and have been thinking of a list I could run maybe next wing but it has been so long since I played, so I wanted to watch the regulars run through some skirmishes. Unfortunately, I showed up a half hour after start time and no one was there. The owner said someone showed up and stayed for 15 mins before leaving. I told him I would be in next Wednesday, though I am pretty nervous about playing with these guys who have played it for a lot longer than I have and a lot more recently than I have.
I also plan to stop in on Tuesday for Quarriors. I've played the Quarriors app maybe a hundred times or more since downloading it last year but have only played the physical version once since TT Day '14 when I was introduced to it (and hated it). I think I might have posted about that day in the last thread but if not: had been playing for 15 hours or so by the time we got to Quarriors and the guys I was playing with all knew how to play it. I didn't really get a good grasp of the mechanics when they explained it to me and did not know what I was doing throughout the whole game. I decided to give it another shot a few months later though after picking up the first Dice Masters starter and bought the second edition of Quarriors and got it to the table once in Greenland.
I may take a couple games with me too. I really want to introduce BattleCON to people at the store and maybe play it in tournament format since it is 1v1, but I don't know if I will ever get my War Remastered, Devastation, and Fate boxes organized or even sleeved. I do have my OG War box that is sleeved, separated, and ready-to-play, so maybe I could take that in. I also want to take in Zombie Tower 3D and Alien Frontier still, and want to play Formula D and Smash Up there again.
The problem with taking games in is that the store "closes" at 8 and I don't know that the owner likes staying past that (and tbh, I don't know if he does, it might not "close like some stores but actually stay open until people are done playing" but could possibly close at that time). Not many people show up either, so there aren't too many people for the scheduled game or people waiting to play something else. Even on a weekend when a lot of stores do open-gaming in addition to regular minis and CCG events, I don't think I could take any games in to this store because the only people who are in there are there to play card games. The store has nothing scheduled for Monday nights though so I have been thinking about asking the owner if Monday could be an open-gaming night and advertised as such on the events section of his FB page. Maybe people who wouldn't turn out for something like "Tuesday Night Board Game Night: Clue" would be more interested in a free-for-all game night. But I don't know, there just might not be enough people in the area who would show up.
Also, I watched my first episodes of Tabletop. Previously, I had only watched one Rahdo video and that his run through of Space Hulk: Death Angel because I wanted to be sure I was playing it right. When people talk about other the other different series out there, I tend to gloss over it because I have never been interested in podcasts, streams, Let's Plays, etc. I just got done watching all of The Guild on Netflix and decided to look up what episodes of TT featured Wil Wheaton, Felicia Day, and other Guild cast members. While, looking through the episode list on Wiki, I saw that they Wil played Formula D in one episode. As I mentioned in the above section, I have been wanting to play that again. So I decided to watch the episode to get my fix and I was surprised to find out afterwards that I enjoyed watching it! I then went and found their X-Wing episode and watched that as well. I've already bookmarked a couple other videos I want to see, especially ones for games like Resistance and Coup (which I own but will never get a chance to play).
So I guess I like Tabletop now.
). Are they that good that they really couldn't have benefited from some polishing six years later? Was kind of disappointed by that. Then again I know I'm not they're target audience (LOVE the theme but not a GW person really when it comes to games).
