Also, do you want fancy, tournament legal X-Wing dice but don't want to win them in a tournament? Buy the Star Wars Outer Rim board game instead https://www.fantasyflightgames.com/en/star-wars-outer-rim/

I mean, that's Barrel Roll for sure. Built in almost supernatural. Guess that's why he's I4. Edit: plasma torps are back, woo I guess. Any 2 dice ships with torp slots that wanted a cheaper option?

And Plasma Torps. WIth 3 dice. They're gonna have to cost 5 or so to even stand a chance.

Plasma Torps and Autoblasters were 2 of the worst loving things in 1.0. If they are not brought down a peg or priced loving high, might as well bring back TLT's.

The sad thing is I'd probably buy it if FFG were capable of making alternate dice that were as easy to read as the stock ones. The event dice are a nice prize, but all the ones I've seen don't have great contrast for my old man eyes.

enigmahfc posted:Plasma Torps and Autoblasters were 2 of the worst loving things in 1.0. Autoblaster turrets and accuracy corretors were bullshit, especially on the double tap ghost. Autoblaster cannons almost never got used? And the only people who whinged were people who also thought Soontir with Focus Focus Evade and post-roll Palpatine were fine. Even if they are functionally the same as 1.0 Autoblasters just aren't as good in 2.0 because you just can't tank hits anymore and the best defence is staying out of arc. Edit: If I had to guess, I'd say Autoblaster is a 2 red dice cannon limited to Range 1 (so essentially always 3 red) with the same effect as 1.0, except only in the bullseye arc. Plasma torps were busted because of their cost and utility on Miranda and Jumps. They're going down to three dice, so even if they're 5 points, they're going to be on the same power level as concussion missiles which don't get any play anyway. Edit2: TLT could easily come back. Make it two red dice, it'll give the range 3 extra dice and it's only active in one mobile arc. It's fine. Might even give the TIE agressor a reason to exist again. hoiyes fucked around with this message at 00:41 on Feb 9, 2019 |

Devlan Mud posted:Lol that game has gotta be so bad if they’re packing in alternate xwing dice to get nerds to buy it. This is a distinct possibility. I already saw someone complain online that these were a "big gently caress you" to people who had already won prize dice. Maybe someone should tell him that nearly every promo and prize from 1e (all the alt arts) is not tournament legal anymore

The whole value of prize dice is that you can't purchase them retail?

Wonder how many copies of that game are gonna end up on ebay for slightly less than retail with red dice swapped in

The Naboo Starfighter looks cool and all, but I have a hard time getting excited about a 2 attack, 2 agility ship. I currently keep trying to make Rebel A-wings work and it just feels like I'm trying to polish a turd.

Anakin can die in a fire, preferably one that I start and continue to feed with fuel until the end of time.

Played Vader plus a mini swarm in a wave 1 hyperspace tournament and thought it was kind of a jive rear end format. Just played a wave 2 event with proton torpedo Luke and Wedge plus Benthic Two-Tubes and had a ton of fun. I am late to the party on this observation but just throwing out there that T-65s and U-Wings are now very nice and all the cool kids just love em.

Does Dauntless trigger if you stay in place? I.e. you’re bumped on a large base ship, you dial a a 1 straight, so stay in place?

TheCenturion posted:Does Dauntless trigger if you stay in place? I.e. you’re bumped on a large base ship, you dial a a 1 straight, so stay in place? Yes. Text reads "partially execute a maneuver", which means "did not reach the end of the template" "End of the template" rule also applies to the Defender's chassis ability. Did you zip through an asteroid? End up on top of a rock? Still take the evade action (as long as you're not stressed and as long as you reached the end of your template)

Does anyone know how long the waitlist is for the Chicago Open is? I'm making a sudden trip from Australia back to PA to visit family and could add a couple days to make it.

https://www.fantasyflightgames.com/en/news/2019/2/11/for-the-republic/ Republic Upgrade preview is out. Looks like Jedi get purple coordinates. Some of those astromechs look interesting too.

bunnyofdoom posted:The purple co-ordinate looks real good. It also just answered everyone's question of "what is the point of those purple actions existing?" I like the archetype I'm seeing in the Republic stuff. A Jedi in a high value fighter doing all kinds of tricks, buffing a deep roster of clone mooks

I wonder what Strain tokens end up doing. Kind of bummed that there are new tokens being added, only because they won't match with my burger tokens.

Floppychop posted:I wonder what Strain tokens end up doing. Explained in another article, but basically a weird mix of stress and tractor. You lose 1 green die, and you remove the token either by being the defender, or by doing a blue manuver

The configuration turns the ships into X-Wings, so I can't imagine why you wouldn't take it. Unless there's another one that's almost as good?

Is this the first time they have used 'basic maneuver' in the text of a card? OI don't recall ever seeing it before.
