Leebo is a pretty good crew upgrade. Not great, but pretty good.

Leebo is ok but I was referencing how K2S0 has no crew or pilot card included in the U-Wing which essentially served as the R1 characters expack for the Rebellion.

You joke but how is there not even a model of the security droid K2 is released as a miniature for either ImpAss or in anything announced for Legion?

FFG hates K2S0.

My dream K2SO card has text to move him to another friendly ship at range one when the ship he's on is destroyed. Because he can survive in space, you see.

I don't really care what he does otherwise.

FWIW FFG almost definitely did not see any of R1 before general release and probably had to go off trailers and concept art and poo poo like the rest of us plebs. K2S0 wasn't prominent in a lot of trailers IIRC.

So, me and my girl did the tournament on Saturday. 8 people showed up. She had a blast. All her opponents were patient, taught her the game, nudged her to remember rey crew/countermeasures.

She placed 8th.


She won $20 in gift certs to the store.

She wants to do another tournament this saturday. Which is reverse hanger bay?

We each need two lists. One ace, two generics per list. That's it.


So, yeah, this will be fun.

For your Poe, I like Advanced Optics and VI instead. That gives you the points to put Linked Battery and Advanced Sensors on the B-Wings. Gives them a lot more flexibility and maneuverability to do a focus action before a red move or to do a barrel roll before a maneuver.

So, my friend and I got some time tonight so he could play the new version. It was not fun for me at all. The 1st game went to time and I won on points with Nym left and both his VCX at half health. Then he won with both VCX at half health again. He has gotten a lot better at forcing me to make bad moves to avoid the bumps (which would even be worse). It's really hard to focus anything down once it gets into range 1-2 since you are trying to avoid bumps and that deadly rear end VCX flip.

Using my bye so I am going to enjoy watching his opponents reaction when he sees that list hit the table.

You can get more HULL from 5x Tie Bombers with hull upgrades (total of 35 hull, enough to run out of damage cards).

But I think 44 remains the most total possible health.

That's a lot of health, but I think it couldn't kill anything. Thankfully.

The Incredible Bulk can kill things with 2x four-die attacks plus one accCor 2-die turret. I'm really tempted to bust this list out at the monthly tournament on Saturday.

But look at this. You'll drop a total of TWELVE prox mines onto the battlefield before any ships move, and force your opponent to place all their ships before you place yours. Almost as tough, and going to be VERY frustrating to move through. With that many prox mines, you can guarantee that their ships have to go through either mines or rocks to get to you.

Downside: You might need to borrow some prox mine tokens from your opponents.

Sadly you can't go through all your extra munitions tokens like that. It was added to the FAQ a while back. You'd get to drop three sets, not twelve.

You could get up to six sets if you did all proxy mines rather than proxy + silos.

Once the Auzituck came out, it was possible to make Biggs all but invincible. Biggs with R2-D6 (cancel down to two hits) with multiple tokens (someone would have Jyn and/or Jan), with Low on the board to give him another evade, plus selflessness to absorb at least one big hit.
