A buddy just texted me and told me that Intensity Poe is a thing and I'm currently reading up on the rules and trying to figure out the order of operations. Looks interesting.

Dial in a Green 2. Use BB-8 to Barrel Roll 3. Intensity 4. Take another action of choice after maneuver is executed as normal. or 1. Dial Whatever 2. BOOST 3. Intensity Then spend your focus, because it's ALWAYS focus on Poe, to get back intensity for next round.

It doesnt really unless your opponent is dumb and spends all game chasing Poe. A good player will chase and kill Dash while Poe tries to plink away. The sad truth is Intensity Poe is just a really big waste of 40ish points

I think the best thing to do with ordinance list is to nuke one Wookiee then run away for the next 60 minutes. Sure is cheesy but not as bad as 4 Wookiee gunships. If they really want to fight they will spread out and you can pick off the lone ship. I would honestly be OK of a limit of 2 of the same ship per list. Will never happen because Tie swarms are the exception. Raged fucked around with this message at 09:02 on Nov 14, 2017 |

To be honest I have my most fun with the game playing aces with interesting action economy. Jake, Psycho Tycho, Keyan, and Poe have all been my favorite builds to fly despite their effectiveness. I gave up power gaming when I quit 40k.

Double Shadow Casters is something like this (you can play around with the illicits): Asajj Ventress (37) Push the Limit (3) Latts Razzi (2) Glitterstim (2) Countermeasures (3) Ketsu Onyo (38) Expertise (4) Dengar (3) Glitterstim (2) Countermeasures (3) Shadow Caster (3) Total: 100 View in Yet Another Squad Builder Alpha strikes are neutered by Counter Measures + Glitterstim, plus it's hard to manage range on a big base that can go 5 straight to bump. Ketsu will just tractor you off of her at the start of combat and then you're taking 2 range 1 shots with -1 (another -1 assuming Ketsu hits). Dealing stress is definitely helpful, since it'll kill Expertise and make it hard for them to move the arc, but they have good greens and they're fast so they should be able to get out of danger to shed the stress and circle back around quickly. Kylo crew is definitely a good call, so I'll look at playing RAC + Quickdraw.

Wapole Languray posted:1. Dial in a Green And bring Primed Thrusters so you can troll-boost-intense focus the bb8 next round. Intensity is probably my favourite card right now, it's a real shame it's only good on like 3 ships (Vader, Poe, Guri). Intene Guri is super fun, I placed second in a tourney at the weekend with her, albeit I got obscenely lucky, and went the first 3 rounds without losing a ship when I should have lost well more than one.

Don't say cruel things like that  So I just might have to up my order to four gunboats. I just tried out 4G&T and it's great. 2 ion boats 2 harpoon boats all with LRS. And an Academy Pilot. None of them can shoot with WD. Unpredictable blocks, alpha punch that's likely to take effect, and sweet control. I managed to pin down Echo ffs.

Going to a store tournament this weekend. I like tanky Rey and can't decide between a Lothal Rebel to get in the face of harpoon carriers or Miranda: YT-1300: •Rey (58) •Millennium Falcon (1) Expertise (4) •C-3PO (3) •Finn (5) VCX-100: Lothal Rebel (42) Anti-Pursuit Lasers (2) •Ghost (0) Fire-Control System (2) Autoblaster Turret (2) •Hera Syndulla (1) •"Chopper" (0) Total: 100/100 Or YT-1300: •Rey (59) Smuggling Compartment (0) •Millennium Falcon (1) Expertise (4) •Finn (5) •C-3PO (3) Burnout Slam (1) K-Wing: •Miranda Doni (40) Long-Range Scanners (0) •Bomblet Generator (3) •Sabine Wren (2) Twin Laser Turret (6) Total: 99/100

Rear Admiral Chiraneau (46) Veteran Instincts (1) Emperor Palpatine (8) Kylo Ren (3) Engine Upgrade (4) Dauntless (2) Total: 64 View in Yet Another Squad Builder I think that's the best RAC. Vader with ATC/Engine is base 34 points, so you can drop Dauntless if you want to run Vader and want to run a good EPT like predator.

Flight Assisted Astromech, barring an FAQ, works with Daredevil. Poe Dameron (PS9) (33) Daredevil (3) Flight-Assist Astromech (1) Primed Thrusters (1) Integrated Astromech (0) Black One (1) Total: 39 Is it good? Eh. Does it sound fun? Oh yes. Imagine Tallon Rolls with it. EDIT: Obviously you don't have to have Poe.

Reporting in from my League game. I ran the following. Poe Dameron PS 9 (33) Intensity (2) Plasma Torpedoes (3) BB-8 (2) Autothrusters (2) Black One (1) Primed Thrusters (1) Total: 44 Dash Rendar (33) Lone Wolf (2) Heavy Laser Cannon (7) Smuggling Compartment (0) Rey (2) Outrider (5) Counter Measures (3) Rigged Cargo Chute (1) Total: 56 Squadron Total: 100 I wound up trouncing my opponent who was playing Palob Godalhi, Ketsu Onyo, and Fenn Rau. Can't remember the upgrades. I made really good use of the asteroids with Dash and was able to use Poe's maneuverability to run up the flank of the fighters. Never made any use of Countermeasures or Rigged Cargo Chute mostly because I was so rusty I was concentrating on remembering the rules. When all was said and done I was only down three shields and my opponent was tabled with a half hour left in the round.

Daredevil is not a Boost action, it's a regular action. 1 bank manoeuvre -> boost because no one's in his arc -> daredevil 1 hard left as an action -> daredevil is a manoeuvre, no one's in his arc again, so he can barrel roll (with primed thrusters because daredevil's stressed him)

Someone was talking on a podcast about trajectory simulator and how most manoeuvres will put you inside the bomb detonation anyway. Thinking it's gonna to be great on Nym though. With harpoons he'll just be straight up suicidal to joust.
