I wanna feel stupid and awesome at the same time. Last time I did was when I burned black one title on turn 1 to deliver an APT from poe to a vulture droid.

This list is undefeated in the few games it's had. Friend of mine trounced another friend, passed me the list, and I tweaked it a tiny bit (swapped his Lt. Blount for AP-5). Just took it to my first ever casual night at the local store and pretty soundly beat a competitive Anakin/Obi-Wan/Ric list.

The gimmick is blocking or bumping all over the place, then hitting people with Wedge. Last game I ionized Anakin in a Delta-7B and then got behind him with Outmaneuver Wedge - enjoy your Force abilities when you're rolling zero evade dice!

Lots of fun to fly.

I love that R2-D2 is (presumably) driving the Y-Wing from the astromech slot with C-3PO stuck in the cockpit.

Matchstick is real good. To turn him on all you gotta do is lock him with a friendly ship.

Where Rebel engineers valued the extra speed and maneuverability that came with stripping away the Y-Wing's layers of armor

Said extra speed and maneuverability being defined as "blue 1-banks instead of white."

There's an established order: changing the crit to a hit would happen during the defender's turn to modify attack dice. Then the attacker would get to modify. Then defense dice are rolled, and modified.

And then, finally, it's the Neutralize Results step where Autoblasters' crit-text comes into play.

Foresight seems pretty loving good on Grand Inquisitor.

Edit: Also Ketsu with shadowcaster title.

Edit2: actually doesn't work with grand Inq ability because it has the missile icon, so no range bonuses. :(

Nice work dude! Sucks to come so close and just miss out. A few of the guys I traveled with had similar results. 1 guy went 4-0 and then lost the last 2 games, another lost his first game, submarines back to 4-1 and then lost the last one. It was a very strong field of players, ~260ish I think. I'm pretty pleased going 5-1 with a CIS swarm and coming 8th overall.

Pretty good day all up, finished 4-2 at 41st place.

Amazing how many people complaining about Finn in stream chat. Yeah he's undercosted, but no more than U-Wings, Soontir, Obi-Wan (probably the most undercosted pilot in the game right now), Arcs, etc. Mostly loaded Finn costs the same as General Grevious and for 10 points more you can load Grevious out to be a tanky monster. And Grevious can be a finisher. Pretty over all everyone focusing on one ship, that they almost certainly don't fly, in isolation and not taking into account the broader faction options and requirements. If Grevious was in Resistance, he'd be in every list, you can be drat sure Bastian would get the flick.

Finn is one of those things that's probably fine balance wise but FEELS dumb. The fact that his defensive ability's strain is instantly cleared just feels like two different people wrote Finn and the strain rules, and they didn't talk.

Strain should be removed after rolling defence dice, not after defending...

hoiyes
May 17, 2007
Yeah. I hope they just tidy up the strain rules instead of bumping him up. He's just filler unless he's kitted out, but if he got a three point bump then kitted out Finn is getting dumped for Bastian/Lone Wolf Lulo every time. Heroic Finn is on a similar powerlevel as Wampa who also costs 30.

I'm not convinced he's better than a cheap A-wing, but he's so cute in his widdle ship.

Is there consensus on how Jendon's ability interacts with the ST-321 title? If he coordinates, would he be forced to take a lock beyond rang 3 of the ship he coordinated? Or would he have to follow the range 0-3 part?
