Hooray, more ordnance. And on a ship that can shoot out a cruise missile and then SLAM away to reload and turn around.

Jam tokens sound like the most obnoxious thing ever. It doesn't go away during the end phase, and only goes away if you take an action to clear it (by taking a focus, evade, or target lock that you then can't use). If you thought stress control and bombs were driving away aces already... Phantom II title doesn't seem worth it compared to the original Phantom title. I'm guessing those Scram(bler) Missiles give out a jam token upon hitting. bunnyofdoom posted:Lol at that bullseye arc and the pilot and ugh. Yeah, that looks ridiculous. A better Old Teroch that can hit more than one ship, at range 1-3.

I suspect the appeal of Phantom II is that the shuttles are significantly cheaper. I suspect the PS1 might be as low as 14.

And also, a free action to someone else at the end of activation phase could be pretty good. For instance, if your ace bumps, or if your ace needs to arc dodge or whatevers.

Finally, the Star Wing. Now they just need to release the T-Wing, R-41 Starchaser, and Stormtrooper transport. Then I'll finally be able to play through the entire TIE Fighter campaign.

Yeah, I dunno. Maybe I'm not creative, but I can't think of a good buddy for a fully loaded Ghost/Phantom like that. You can do that with Ahsoka right now, at range 1, but you aren't taking a zero agility points pinata besides. I wonder if that Astromech is going to be good in X-Wings. Text is: quote:After you ex[ecute a maneuver] if you did [not overlap a ship] or obstacle[, if there is an] enemy ship [in your firing] arc at R[ange ?, you may] perform [a free] barrel [roll action] Free repositioning with barrel roll could be helpful for a number of named X-Wing pilots.

Napoleon Nelson posted:I wonder why the Phantom II has a crew card that says "scum only" As below it's Maul, and it's Scum only. Rebels only if Ezra is in your squad. Jam doesn't seem too bad, it's on a cannon that does no damage and has to hit, or a missile. Dodgy aces won't get jammed, but you will be able to stop low agility gunboats from firing ordnance. alg posted:Edit I love how much rebels pay for Wes to have a ghetto version of this ability on a trash ship and Scum and Imperials are gonna get it for almost nothing lol What are you talking about its tied to the cannon Jamming Beam and Scrambler missiles. Rebels have just as much access as anyone else. I can see a PS10 bullseye arc being a scary ship, with agromech he's still fairly cheap with a decent punch and puts the hurt on rebel swarms. Give him harpoons too just because.

Has to be 0 or 1point to start, and it looks like only one comes in the pack.

I have serious doubts that they'd ever do a 0 point generic astromech, if only for the reason that it would be a massive buff to every other ship with an astromech slot. ...of course, these ships include such powerhouses as the Y-Wing and E-Wing, so maybe it isn't so crazy.

We will see how it goes, but the star wing being able to slam and fire a secondary beam weapon with the title while it has a weapon disabled token has me worried. Also with the 26 point pilot, it will be rolling 3 dice. Raged fucked around with this message at 01:56 on Aug 22, 2017 |

Meanwhile Rebels have 8 ships with turrets to imperials two, including one ship with a cannon turret (!) that I recall doing pretty good in championships? Wes' ability is better than jam because it can force a target like omega leader use two tokens, whereas jam will only take one.

Eh, considering that the only weapon it can fire with a weapons disabled token is either a tractor beam or (probably) the new jamming laser, I'm not too concerned.

alg posted:Jam can also be spammed and forces action forfeiture on future turns Sure you can spam jam, but expertise dengar/rey/Quickdraw are just going to laugh in your face as they pull far ahead on the damage race. I'm assuming it doesn't do damage as it doesn't look like there's enough text to fit take a damage and cancel results. Tractor Beam is still a better cannon choice on tie/d, but x7 is better again. If you're jammed you can still reposition, and jam doesn't mess with the rebel only reinforce action. The jam missile is probably better insurance against the rebel Biggs swarm than harpoon, and it pretty much takes howl swarm off the map altogether. Edit: of course since jammed is a bold keyword there's probably some horrible upgrade that lets you gently caress with Jammed ships, and it'll be OP and tie/d will rule the roots again. hoiyes fucked around with this message at 03:12 on Aug 22, 2017 |

Who was it who said that most of these homebrews come from angry frustrated players who feel they lost unfairly? Because that's all I see here; an angry ARC-170 player who got stomped by a swarm of TIE's or Z-95's. *E* Gonna try that 4 TIE Bomber build with Unguided Rockets and bombs. Any tips for playing it well?
