Yeah, it seems to be a troop/cargo transport variant.

We have been playing for six months and have had to buy a second tackle box. Now after Christmas, I'm eyeballing one of those big fieldherr cases

I switched to my super tedious but somehow very gratifying "tiny cardboard boxes" system because I'll never outgrow it. Cardstock is relatively cheap.

So I've been bingewatching Rebels lately and now I'm kind of wondering if we might ever get a reverse-most wanted with cards for Ketsu and Fenn Rau as rebel pilots.

I doubt it. Most Wanted was a way to make a (mostly) viable third faction with a limited release. I don't see why they'd dilute the faction identities further now. .... Talk to me about TIE strikers. What builds are you guys looking forward to?

thespaceinvader posted:Countdown/Sabacc/Omega Leader/Something. You can have Countdown with Hull upgrade, Sabacc with crack shot, Omega Leader with Juke and Comm Relay, and still fit an x7 Delta. I'm going to have to try it, at least.

Hell, if you can fit that lot in, you can put in Palp instead of an x7. Not sure if it's better though. If you're going to put any upgrade anywhere I'd probably look at shield on Sabacc by the by. Giving him another HP to take before he loses his extra die is nice, and probably one of the few places it's worth the points.

Deathfire with Connor net, flechette torpedo, extra munitions, and lrs is 25 points. Probably have the points to make that a homing missile instead for the torpedo.

I'd swap turrets on the Ys. Drea has a range three option with her torpedoes, but Kavil has no answer for anything faster than he is.

It's been pointed out to be that I have the wrong Astro on Drea. Y-Wing: · Drea Renthal (22) Plasma Torpedoes (3) Twin Laser Turret (6) Guidance Chips (0) · R4-B11 (3) Y-Wing: · Kavil (24) Push The Limit (3) Dorsal Turret (3) Vectored Thrusters (2) Unhinged Astromech (1) G-1A Starfighter: · Zuckuss (28) Crack Shot (1) Fire Control System (2) · 4-LOM (1) · Mist Hunter (0) Tractor Beam (1) I feel like TLT on Kavil isn't as useful. He gets the extra dice but that doesn't translate to more damage, necessarily. Drea with the TLT and R4-B11 shoves the damage through. I'm hoping thrusters and Tractor Beam can make up for any Range 3 dudes with Kavil.

I'm running triple x7 defenders, and I'm having trouble getting into situations where juke is useful. the other player usually has a focus token to spend. Am I reading the card wrong?

Acebuckeye13 posted:Doesn't work. Norra has to spend a TL to get her extra focus, so there's no net benefit for spending it to re-roll Finn. Fair point. Drop Finn, then, since it's a more expensive way to get one die, and use the points freed for a Tail Gunner and upgrading the Dorsal to TLT on Jan. It's still 6 dice at all ranges if the Swarm Leader goes off.

Juke works best with other Jukes and/or a HotCop that shoots first. If you have two Jukers shooting at the same target, one of them has Crack Shot.

No, but think of it this way. Even if you Juke it and they spend the focus, that's a situation where you've nudged them into spending a focus they might not have wanted/needed to. If you've got 3 hits and they rolled 3 natural evades and have a focus token, you can Juke one of the evade results so they are either going to spend the focus OR take the damage. Then the next ship in your list who is shooting is now shooting at a target that is without a focus, and thus is in a better spot to put some damage through.
