Ion Dischargers and Dace Bonearm; do you completely finish everything on Ion Dischargers before Dace activates, or does he butt in as soon as the enemy ship gets the Ion token?

He'll butt in and his ability can trigger, but Ion Dischargers will still finish their trigger afterwards and cause the card to be discarded.

banned from Starbucks posted:Unboxing guns for hire makes me wish these "fixer" expansions were just 2 smaller individual packages instead of a combo. Looking at the nice paintjob on the K fighter i know i will still never fly this pointsink of a ship and it will prob just sit in its clear plastic coffin forever. Maybe ill display it on my desk at least. Nah, k fighters are good now. Nym + 2 deadeye black sun aces is the new torpboats. 3 point harpoons + 1 point scavenger crane + free Munitions fail-safe & deadeye + chips is pretty strong!

I’m bringing back the swarm. Who wants to go all-in on Omega Squadron? Omega fun v2 (98) •"Omega Leader" (26) - TIE/FO Fighter Juke (2), Comm Relay (3) Omega Squadron Pilot (18) - TIE/FO Fighter Crack Shot (1) Omega Squadron Pilot (18) - TIE/FO Fighter Crack Shot (1) Omega Squadron Pilot (18) - TIE/FO Fighter Crack Shot (1) Omega Squadron Pilot (18) - TIE/FO Fighter Crack Shot (1) When the baby pilots grow up, they get to be just like their squadron leader ☺️ My standard TIE version of this ate a Millenium Falcon list alive, here’s to hoping it does the same to Poe and Tycho tonight.

This is probably actually not bad https://geordanr.github.io/xwing/?f...ain%20Aces&obs= 4x bombers (unguided/lwf/seismic (on some)) + wampa was kicking rear end not long ago. This drops wampa in favor of deathrain. Also could drop a bomber (and some bombs) in favor of Omega Leader

I was looking at that Deathrain Aces list that got posted earlier, and I wanted to give it a try. However, since I don't have all the cards for the Vader build, I was going to try subbing in Quickdraw with the title+FCS+LF. I've still got 3 points left, but don't know what if anything I should add in. Any suggestions? Is there a better sub for Vader in that list?

You want VI and your choice of Pattern Analyzer (actions after red moves) or Sensor Cluster (spend focus to change blank > evade on defense) for those last three points.

Baron Fuzzlewhack posted:Tentative confirmation from our distributor: Waves 12 and 13 release next week. (e: tentative because preorders are due by 11/6 anyway Yeah next week ain't gonna happen. They have 4 ships to preview, it'll be at least 4 weeks. The missing SKU has had a lot of supposition about it, but nothing concrete has been confirmed so far. The most likely thoughts are: Possible TLJ spoilers Guillermo del Toro's character DJ's ship, which we've so far only seen interiors of, and the reason we don't know about it is because it's embargoed until the exteriors are available either in the trailers or the cinema. Some kind of aces pack Some kind of epic ship, possibly for Scum, of the corvette/gunship stripe, many possible ideas have been proposed. e: im dum thespaceinvader fucked around with this message at 00:13 on Nov 1, 2017 |

ConfusedUs, do you think your Kylo/Whisper squad will be more viable in the post-FAQ meta? I know it'll take some time to shake out, but I really liked flying that list, but Dengar/Tel lists were just crushing me without breaking a sweat.

Still a bit too much PS10 for Whisper to be comfortable.

High agi Imps will be tough to crack with that, but going to try it out this weekend to decide what I am running for regionals season. All a kind of a moot point with the next 2 waves coming out next month.

What usually goes on Omega Leader? I imagine you keep him cheap as he's still just a TIE F/O. TIE Advanced: •Darth Vader (35) Engine Upgrade (4) TIE/x1 (0) Veteran Instincts (1) Advanced Targeting Computer (1) TIE/FO Fighter: •"Omega Leader" (24) Veteran Instincts (1) Sensor cluster (2) TIE Phantom: •"Whisper" (40) Advanced Cloaking Device (4) Veteran Instincts (1) Fire-Control System (2) Intelligence Agent (1) Total: 99/100 Could also go with Adaptability to get a two point bid.

Juke and Comm Relay are the only way to fly OL. Everything is is massively inferior, in the same way that you'd never fly Soontir without PTL and Autothrusters or Vader without Advanced Targeting Computer.

That puts me a point over and I don't know what to cut. Maybe Adaptability on Whisper? Edit: I want to keep Vader at 11 if at all possible, especially if I don't have a bid.

Omega Leader isn't even all that great, to be honest. He's annoying in that way a Rebel regen ship can be, but he's really no that threatening, just annoying as gently caress (again, just like Rebel regen).

He's a great closer, and pretty solid at picking on 1-agility ships in particular. There's a certain value to being able to say "gently caress all of your dice mods, now and for the rest of the game" if he ends up one-on-one with someone.

He's annoying in that way a Rebel regen ship can be, but he's really no that threatening, just annoying as gently caress (again, just like Rebel regen). He's actually really good. If left to the end game, he's one of the best closers in the game. To beat him one-on-one, you need to have one or more of the following: The ability to shed target locks somehow The PS and tools to arc dodge him Regen Autodamage (bombs, antipursuit lasers, Vader crew, etc) Luck (If you can shoot more than once, you're more likely to get lucky) If targeted early, he's basically Biggs, and keeps the rest of your list alive. Which is also really good. I can't tell you how many games I've closed out with OL. I've chewed through Falcons and Decimators, Jumpmasters and Defenders, Lancers and Ghosts and pretty much anything that's not Poe, Miranda, Corran, or Dengar, all of which are basically auto-losses for OL in the endgame.
