How do you tell which upgrades a ship can take?

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

Does anyone know if Saw's Renegades has 2.0 X-wing pilots that aren't in the starter or T-65 pack?

bunnyofdoom posted:

I am 90% sure it does
Thanks, managed to confirm it with some unboxing videos, but I also found out that the quality on the Saw X-wing is worse than the 2nd ed. boxes. I'll probably wait for a second printing.

Back in V1's first wave, a dude in my local scene was very concerned that Swarm tactics would break the game. Not super worried about it this time, either.

Speaking of Paige Tico, her bomb still doesn't explode until the end of the next activation phase, right? At the same time as a bomb placed normally that turn? One of my opponents ran her last week and we were both struggling to see her value.

She's much more valuable because of the rotate and how it allows doubletaps out the front. A MG100 with Paige can start with arc sideways, shoot from front primary, use Paige to rotate to front, shoot with turret front, use paige to rotate back to side (to set up for next round)

Makes sense, thanks

Do we know when the new TIE Striker is supposed to be released?

The other opportunity for two stress at once is Sloane.

Is it? Wouldn't he gain the stress after the ship is destroyed and consequently no longer in range 1?

I played my third game with RZ-2s today, and I've swung the guns around a total of one time. Are others having similar experiences? I mean it doesn't hurt to have the option but I imagined that this would be more useful.

Noticed tonight that 'Hate' is restricted to 'Dark Side.' Of course it's obvious which factions that entails and I'm not looking to be a rules pedant about this, but I am curious if this is specified anywhere? I've gone thought the cards, rulebook and rules reference several times and I can't find anything.

It's probably also worth noting that Maul crew allows a pilot with an existing Force slot to take Hate, but doesn't allow someone without a Force slot to do so.

Assuming this doesn't work for Republic ships that take Chancellor Palpatine.

Anyone tried 6 RZ-2s? Keeping my fingers crossed for a sale somewhere soon.

So FFG finally gave us an answer on the revealed maneuver thing, and naturally they interpreted it the stupid way. Oh well

I kinda like the idea of the shrinking map, but you'd have to build a whole lot of cards/mechanics around that to the point where it would hardly be the same game anymore.

Warmachine does this, not sure why it would be difficult to adapt: "At the beginning of round X and every round thereafter, every ship within range 3 of any table edge gets 1 facedown damage card." Sounds like it could be neat.

I would recommend at least picking up a TIE Advanced X1 to get Vader. An additional X-wing and Tie Fighter pack isn't a bad idea either since they give you additional pilots for those ships that aren't in the starter.

Only one of our local stores is still open, and it is the single most disgusting space I've ever been in my life. You know that plastic, white, lightly textured wall covering that's in half the retail bathrooms in the country?

In their bathroom, it is mostly orange, with shades of green and purple blotching throughout. I'm not sure what's growing on it, but I'm pretty sure the answer is "yes."

They posted that they're taking "enhanced cleaning measures," whatever that means, but will remain open. Maybe they bought a can of Lysol to threaten the bathroom with. If so, it's not scared. Killing 99% of bacteria in there would just anger it.

A lot of the stores I've been to use 2.5' wide folding tables, so if a 2'x2' foot game is still workable, that would be pretty nice.
