If the games I played against him are any indication, he doesn't do anything worth noting and dies before even scratching someone else's paint. Tycho at least has his anger issues (Rage, PtL, Experimental Interface) to carry him through.

Then you played against bad Jake players. Jake was great with PtL and is even better with Intensity, since he gets two focus tokens, a boost and a barrel roll every turn. Unless he needs both focuses.

The best Jake player in the world will avoid all the damage and have trouble dealing it.

That's totally fair, that's why I run Prockets.

That said, I don't play competitively; Jake is probably a lot better against the random lists my buddy and I throw at each other.

Jake with Intensity goes: Focus, free boost or roll, free focus or evade, correct? Not sure if it's worth it without PtL, and probably isn't worth it at all.

With Engine and AT the Uwing becomes a mini Agressor chassis. I'm pretty sure people will be able to figure out some good combos. With the flexible crew options.

It's still only got 1 green die and a MUCH worse dial, but yeah, that's certainly a start.

Edit: More generally, the fact that we still don't have a K-2SO crew or pilot card is BS.

Put on Kanan crew and suddenly it's much better. And Uwing is essentially 2 green with the title.

Oh fair, I forgot about that part of Pivot Wing.

Can someone who knows the X-Wing timing rules check on something for me? The new PS7 X-Wing pilot says "after you perform a boost or barrel roll action, you may flip your S-Foil card." Is there a window for that to happen such that PtL would then let you perform the other action?

Same trigger and window for Kullbee's ability (after performing action), which means you do them in any order. So if you start on cruise mode, you can do a boost, flip the card, and PTL a barrel roll.

Or vice versa. :getin:

s-foils are basically garbage with one extra action that isn't free, just an option

the refit is genuinely good but not even as good as the nerfed defender fix
Yeah, a 0 point modification that doesn't gives you a free extra action every turn is totally garbage.

You realize that's a 0 point modification that's both Vectored Thrusters AND Engine Upgrade, PLUS TIE Mark II?

Oh and it lets you Tallon Roll. When you want to.

No, it won’t break the game, but it’s not garbage, either. I must have misunderstood why you seemed to keep saying it cost actions.

A free double tap every turn with Accuracy Corrector does seem a little strong for 18 points.

Also, since the EPT one is 18, you can get Juke/AccCor/AT for 25, which seems very good.

Y-Wings have innate reload, ion tokens have been revamped so you perform a blue (green) maneuver instead of white.

New FCS is basically Predator: if you have a lock on the defender, you can reroll a single die. If you do, you can't spend the lock.
