The other, possibly dumber option is a pair of TLT Y-wings. Any thoughts? Lothal Rebel with FCS + Hera + Saw is 39. Toss in a turret (autoblaster or Synched) and maybe Tac Jammer or APL.

The tractor rules don't jive with what i remember from the lead-up. If i bump Unkar Plutt into someone and he gains a token, according to the rules my opponent would decide whether i boost or barrel roll. And for the roll the tractored ship decides the direction of the roll???

So it should read "After your ship becomes tractored, the opposing player may choose one of the following effects:"

Though, the language from 1.0 saying "If you are unable to complete this action, you may choose to perform a different action" is conspicuously absent. Also absent is any mention of being able to Lock friendly ships or obstacles, which was specifically stated in demos.

I think that’s obviously a pdf digital version, it’s entirely possible they’ve uploaded an old version and the code sets will be packaged with the correct rules. Actually who am I kidding they’re going to have to make a Day 1 patch announcement.

Looking at the old rulebooks, the 2.0 PDF that's been released, while called "Rulebook," is similar to the Learn to Play rulebook from the TFA core set. It gives the basic rules of the game, but lacks specifics that are mentioned in further detail in the Rules Reference book. For example, the section on Barrel Rolls in Learn to Play is half as long as in the Rules Reference book. So what we have is only a portion of the full rule set. I'm pretty sure we're fine.

I like the second one better, simply because I feel that AdvSens isn't as good at lower PS. I also feel that double ISB slicers is kind of overkill. You can't double-jam someone.

Laugh all you want at poonapple ya bastards. I hate the name, but it’s the name people gave it. I won a ton of smaller tournaments with it and pretty well with it at NSW regionals. I think it’s hurting with the latest wave, but I play the list a few times a month without any upgrades when I am teaching the autistic clients at work so I am pretty drat good when I can’t use my poons. Best thing is seeing people at big tournaments who I smash with it running it at later tournaments. Haven’t lost a mirror match yet :p
