Trying to think of a 1.0 list to play in some tournaments over the summer. I definitely want Ryad in the list as she is one of my favorite pilots. I also wanted to maybe to try a Reaper with Krennic giving the optimized prototype to Ryad. Anyone thinking of trying an optimized prototyped Tie Defender? Here is what I was thinking: Countess Ryad (36) -Twin Ion Engine Mk. II -Tie/x7 -Push the Limit Delta Squadron Pilot (32) -Shield Upgrade -Tie/x7 Scarif Base Pilot (32) -Lightweight Frame -Advanced Ailerons -Director Krennic -Rebel Captive

Paying the points to upgrade the Reaper to the PS6 one is probably worth more than a single shield upgrade.

Maybe drop the delta and go with Omega Leader and VI Vermeil up to 8 to try and take advantage of jam? Countess Ryad (36) -Twin Ion Engine Mk. II -Tie/x7 -Push the Limit Major Vermeil (37) -Lightweight Frame -Advanced Ailerons -Veteran Instincts -Director Krennic -Rebel Captive Omega Leader (26) -Juke -Comm Relay

Optimized prototype is odd in that you want it on something that's going to shoot first (to strip shields, and not be wasted if something else strips them first) but you prob also want it on your least threatening ship to draw hate away from something more important (like Wampa did in the old ImpAssholes list) I'd say put it on either a generic PS6 defender or Countdown. Countdown with OP is annoying enough that you'd want to kill him first bit his ability ensures they waste at lease 1 attack a round.

Major Vermeil (37) -Lightweight Frame -Advanced Ailerons -VI -Director Krennic -Rebel Captive Countess Ryad (40) -Shield Upgrade -Tie/x7 -Expertise Countdown (22) -Lightweight Frame -Adaptive Ailerons Put the optimized prototype on countdown. Major Vermeil tries to jam/keep target locks from Krennic. Countess Ryad does Ryad things and fly Countdown super aggressive?

I’ve had some success annoying my opponents with Countdown with a stealth device. Since you can cancel results and take a damage, you don’t lose the SD.

I know the Rebel conversion kit content list was leaked, but it seemed like less pilots than I expected - I thought FFG said we'd wind up with more pilots than we had in 1.0? Having just 2 generics and 2 named for most ships seems lackluster. Any hints as to where more pilots will come from?

I've made some updates to the 2.0 ship comparisons that were posted a few pages back. The new turret arc icons should be closer to FFG's card graphics (I eyeballed it from some low-res images online) and I've matched the fonts used as well. Light card gallery | PDF  Dark card gallery | PDF I'm pretty happy with how these turned out. I just pre-ordered Saw's Renegades and the TIE Reaper so I should get a better look at the 2.0 icons in case I want to make any further changes.

Ya these are pretty awesome and a great at a glance quick reference. I like being able to see the differences between 1.0 and 2.0 dials and statlines so thanks for this.

bunnyofdoom posted:Who wants some salty homebrew rules Most of these are reasonable. Most of the bad ones are only bad because they didn't also reduce the cost. A couple are hilarious, like the bomb one, or Punishing One Changes I like: Blaster Turret Extra Munitions R2-D2 R3-A2 Slave 1 Latts Razzi Changes that need cost reduction: Twin Laser Turret Expertise Bomblet Generator Push the Limit (maybe) My biggest concern with the Adapt/VI changes are that, if PS is capped to 9, then advanced sensors Kylo Ren becomes untouchable.

Yeah, most of these are totally fine changes to overpowered bullshit that have been insituted in one way or another in 2e. AS Kylo gets concerning, for sure, but no more so than Corran, Miranda, or Poe.

R3-A2 becomes unusable, Expertise becomes unusable, VI and Adaptability are almost unusable, PTL becomes effectively Soontir only, no changes to Harpoons That guy has a clear agenda and really bad ideas about the game Edit: also his stated goal was to make dice mods less prevelant then he made Fenn Rau trash.
