Yeah that's one hell of a maneuverable ship. It DGAF about single stress. PTL might be risky if Asajj is around, because double stress is still bad.

That's basically an A-Wing dial with Tallon Rolls and green 3 banks.

That dial is cool and good. I guess you could get some good synergy going with threat tracker and FCS?

That dial is ridiculously good. It is unquestionably the best small ship dial in the game right now, just like a jumpmaster with unhinged astro was unquestionably the best large ship dial in the game.

Silencer also lacks the evade action in its action bar, so it's gonna be a lot less forgiving of poor maneuvering since you can't just token tank like TIE Interceptors or Whisper can. Admittedly has 3 and 2 more EHP respectively, but still.

Trick Shot seems like an obvious choice on Blackout. It's like a conditionally better Zuckuss pilot ability!

alg posted:The PS7 from the link is only 31 points and has 6 hp, ept, boost and barrel roll Yes. That is very expensive for a PS7 ship with an ability that relies on it getting arc on stuff, and in very specific positions as well.

Ten Numb was overcosted the day he came out, though. He's never been good.

Threat tracker is really good and worth 3 points. Excellent on Quickdraw with FCS, and still good on an advanced sensor PTL Kylo. Although with that dial I'm thinking you will probably us FCS, PTL, and pattern analyser, as blocking will be much harder.

FCS synergises with Threat Tracker, AS synergises way harder with Primed Thrusters, because now you can (mostly) not care too much when you PTL, and you can ignore stress imposition. Id say Threat Tracking is going to be better on a VI build. VI Tracking FCS Autothrusters Title.

I double checked the wording and my (broken) French confirms that it definitely says "from your action bar," so no barrel rolling T-70s or boosting FOs.

Why would Threat Tracker work with VI well? If it works during combat, are you hoping it activates after you'd already attacked in that round?

If we're heading into a stress meta, then I think Lone Wolf will probably pan out as the top Kylo EPT. Action independent, if you can proc the title also it's 2 dice to reroll on attack, you're still incredibly mobile with Primed thrusters and advanced sensors, and you shave a point. EDIT: and rerolling green dice is manna from heaven I'd run this - 3 point bid, linked batteries is good but long range scanners makes up for it a bit, you should be able to erase a stresshog or stressshuttle, and can seriously hurt a wookie. TIE Silencer: •Kylo Ren (45) Autothrusters (2) •Lone Wolf (2) Advanced Sensors (3) Primed Thrusters (1) Title (2) Alpha-Class Star Wing: Nu Squadron Pilot (26) Long-Range Scanners (0) XG-1 Assault Configuration (1) Heavy Laser Cannon (7) Alpha-Class Star Wing: Nu Squadron Pilot (26) Long-Range Scanners (0) XG-1 Assault Configuration (1) Heavy Laser Cannon (7) Total: 97/100 Edit 2: I would also consider putting tractors on both and bumping to 99, just to slam and chuck wookies on rocks sounds like fun. hoiyes fucked around with this message at 01:27 on Nov 29, 2017 |

EDIT: and rerolling green dice is manna from heaven Primed Thrusters seems like a waste of a slot since you're not self stressing and AS lets you Action when you K-Turn or T-Roll anyway. Cutting that will give you the room to put Linked Battery on both Gunboats.

Some Numbers posted:Primed Thrusters seems like a waste of a slot since you're not self stressing and AS lets you Action when you K-Turn or T-Roll anyway. Cutting that will give you the room to put Linked Battery on both Gunboats. Yeah, there's definitely an argument for leaving it at home, but there's also enough top level stressing that happens in the combat phase via tactician wookies, rebel captive, stressbot, stress steathpede, stress arc, the kimogila title (marginal user maybe) to render advanced sensors a bit useless if you're starting your turn stressed, so it's a 1 point investment in the 3 point sensor slot. It really depends on how the meta shakes out. Anyway, I've stumbled on my seasons practice squad. It's called 'gently caress your alpha strike': Protectorate Star.: •Fenn Rau (32) Autothrusters (2) Concord Dawn Protector (1) Attanni Mindlink (1) Starviper: •Guri (37) Autothrusters (2) Starviper Mk.II (-3) •Virago (1) Attanni Mindlink (1) Sensor Jammer (4) •Cloaking Device (2) Jumpmaster 5000: •Manaroo (30) Tactical Jammers (1) Adaptability (-1) (0) Intelligence Agent (1) Rigged Cargo Chute (1) Total: 99/100 (I'll probably end up putting FCS on Guri, but sensor jammer is more in theme) Just run Guri behind manaroo and roll 6 defence dice vs harpoons. Profit.
