Unboxing of the Phantom 2 and Resistance Bomber. Not great, but you see some of the new stuff.

Bomber primary is a turret. No EPT, but all have crew, bomb, bomb, tech

27pt PS 4 bomber pilot can drop bombs anywhere in the play area as long as it is touching your ship

28pt PS 6 pilot is a Wedge that only works at range one.

Also 3 shields 9 loving hull

Upgrades

Adv optics is Comms Relay for focus 2 pts tech fuuuuuuuck Poe

Deflective Plating 1pt mod: Allows you to ignore friendly bomb damage. Roll die on use if it's a hit discard card

Crossfire formation 2pt mod: When defending if there is at least 1 other friendly Resistance ship at range 1-2 you may add one eyeball to your roll (R Bomber only)

Ordinance Silo 2 pt bomb: Add 3 munition tokens to all equipped bombs

Also trajectory simulator is from front guides.

Nerf Sabine please

I love the bad ambiguous writing on the ps4 bomber pilot ability:... you may place the bomb token anywhere in the play area touching your ship.

Well, my ship is only touching one play area, so... anywhere?

Bomber has 0 stop and 1 hard red.

I can't believe you can get a 3 shield 9 hull ship for 25 points. You thought 3 lg ships were a scum only thing think again.

Might be wrong about it having a crew slot

I think that's got to be a system slot, otherwise they couldn't equip trajectory simulator.

It's system, 2 bombs, and a tech. I'm not entirely sure how to approach these ships.

Basic ship + crossfire + traj sim + silo + Deflective plating +3pt bomb = 34 points x2 68

Basic ship + crossfire + traj sim + bomblet gen + deflective plating = 32

100 points

Don't need eyes to drop or launch bombs

So right now it would just be this bomber, T-70s, and YT-1200 pilots from Heroes of the Resistance.

I wonder if it would be worth it to put Trajectory Simulator on a TIE Punisher with bomblet generator.

Yes, but nothing has specified Rebel, Imperial, Resistance, or First Order before; its usually 'friendly ship'.

It's probably just the devs being bad at wording things......again.

The terms are very well defined. There's a whole segment about the sub-factions in the TFA rulebook. I don't see how it's bad wording at all?

In this case, the effect is limited beyond just friendly ships to friendly ships of a specific sub-faction.

I was just meaning they probably meant friendly ship but wrote Resistance and will have to FAQ it to friendly, Really, it was just a joke and how the wording on cards is getting worse and less precise, in my opinion.

What's left to spoil? Is it all in the Silencer pack? The new Action EPT will be interesting as you can assign evades, wondering if there's not a broken combo there somewhere with experimental interface. Maybe a named tie swarm with Jukes and Youngster. I think Quickdraw will be very interested in it too as she gets all the mods from other stuff.

There's some other new Tech too.

AndyElusive

Why are you guys confused about the wording on Crossfire Formation? They really explicitly tell you how it and the wording works right in the preview: it only applies to friendly ships from the Resistance sub-fac.

And goddamn, the TIE Silencer is loving huge.

Scrambler missiles are going to be like ion pulse missiles but with jamming tokens, that much is pretty clear. Maybe with splash damage to continue hating on swarms.

The Kimoglia dial is probably the most interesting thing left to spoil, personally. 3 hards :pray:

No you hit the Z with a Harpoon first, assign it the condition, then blow it up with Assault Missiles. (lol jank)

How is the Upsilon Shuttle?

I'm trying to work out purchasing enough new trilogy ships to have a 100pt list for each side. Resistance is easy between TFA Core + Heroes of the Resistance, but I'm having more difficulty coming up with something out of the First Order stuff thats been released. Really curious about the TIE Silencer, since otherwise I'm thinking the answer is either Upsilon+TIE/fo or TIE/sf or just lots more TIE/fos.

Jankness 2000 (100):

•N'Dru Suhlak (22) - Z-95 Headhunter
Veteran Instincts (1), Dead Man's Switch (2), Vectored Thrusters (2)

•Zuckuss (39) - G-1A Starfighter
Expertise (4), Advanced Sensors (3), •Dengar (3), •Mist Hunter (0), Tractor Beam (1)

•Torani Kulda (39) - M12-L Kimogila Fighter
Push The Limit (3), Harpoon Missiles (4), •"Genius" (0), •Enforcer (1), Engine Upgrade (4)

Genius = friendly fire bot


Start the game by harpooning N’Dru. Fly him directly at the enemies, keeping the other 2 ships hanging back. The enemy then risks taking 2 damage per ship at range or a 4 dice attack from N’Dru. Sounds fun at the very least.
