Hey, I know that guy.
>>
To the guy with the antagonist O66 survivor game: why wouldn't Luke just go there himself. I mean aside from the obvious 'because I need to give my party a quest', Luke would just go. It's not like he hasn't fought bad people before, nor people who are pretty out of his league.
>>
What's a better build for Wedge with Engine Upgrade: PTL and BB-8 or Predator and Targeting Astromech?
While I'm at it, is Wedge still worth using?
>>
>>47190822
Pretty much exactly this. Luke has NEVER been the kind of dude to send people into danger he should be handling himself, and an OJO rogue Jedi is exactly that kind of danger.

The easiet fix would be to just lighten up on the special snowflakeism a bit and just make it a dangerous force-using mercenary that need to either be brought in for moral training or imprisoned for his crimes.

And if he hasn't committed any crimes...then why the fuck are the PCs going after him in the first place?
>>
>>47189013
>Luke decides to wait and let the dude cool off or something while Luke tries to gather jedi artifacts and stuff with the help of the player characters.

This is where you go wrong. If the guy killed rebels that Luke was responsible for, there's no way in HELL Luke would make that same decision twice, no matter how competent the PCs are. He'd go on his own, or at best he'd bring the PCs as backup, but more likely he'd just bring in Han, Chewie, and maybe some Alliance Specops troops to seal the deal.

You've written yourself into a corner. You've made an antagonist who would be too much of a Big Deal in the post-RotJ universe (and frankly, shouldn't have even survived that long with how visible he apparently is) to be handled by the NPCs. You either need to tone him down, or have made him train a bunch of dark-sided adepts for the PCs to fight while Luke fights HIM. And Han and Chewie and the specops team handles the rest of the non-force-sensitive merc team.
>>
>>47191333
>>47190822
What if the PCs hear a rumor about this guy and try to find him to impress their waif- I mean teacher, Luke?

They don't tell him and go off on a secret adventure only to get stomped pretty hard and forced to train harder.
>>
>>47191391
That still relies on Luke sitting on his ass long enough for the PCs to act, which is unlikely. Worse, it opens up the temptation of using Luke as a dues ex machina, arriving at the last possible moment to save the PCs from the guy.

I'm still not really certain what the guy being from the OJO really adds to the character. It feels tacked on and pointless, since he doesn't want to talk about it and will straight up murder anyone who tries.
>>
>>47191481
Not necessarily. They could have stolen a "council" report talking about it. Luke and his group of more experience Jedi are looking for the guy and this group gets lucky.

Let the PCs understand that this guy isn't someone to mess with. Let them plan it all out.

When the fight comes, play it out. If the young Jedi are winning, let them. IF they can capture him, just see how far they can transport him before he makes his escape. If they kill him, it would be an excellent lesson of Pride and the darkside for Luke to talk with them when they get back.

But if they start losing, have one of their comlinks start buzzing that senior jedi are coming to pick them up and that their going to get an earfull from Rosh-sensei . Have the bad guy realize that more Jedi would be a problem and run.
>>
Is there like a list of all the different models of weapons under a certain type anywhere? I checked on the wook but I didn't see anything. Like different blaster rifle models. The only rilfe model that comes to mind for me is the E-11
>>
>>47191620
>Not necessarily. They could have stolen a "council" report talking about it. Luke and his group of more experience Jedi are looking for the guy and this group gets lucky.

If these guys are mercenaries for hire like you said, then finding them shouldn't be an issue. You just...hire them. Under the guise of someone other than the NR or NJO, of course. Or you find out where they're fighting currently. Finding an entire mercenary outfit is not a hard task.

Really, though, this comes back again to the question of "How the fuck did these guys survive the Empire?" You already had to snowflake your way past Order 66, but doing it for VADER is a whole 'nother ball game. Just saying "Vader has better shit to do" is kind of ridiculous, Vader literally got involved with a backwater planet Rebellion personally when the Inquisitor he sent first failed. He hates the Jedi, and if he knows where one is and the Inquisitors can't handle it, he goes personally.
>>
>>47191868
Maybe the guy was actually smart and hid out in the Outer Rim or Wild Space

So... Thoughts?
https://www.fantasyflightgames.com/en/news/2016/5/10/forged-in-battle/

I'm a little disappointed that the soldier still lacks a bit more of a generalist line infantry spec, I've twice had to point players at Hired Gun's Mercenary Soldier in order for them to properly represent the idea they had in their head, such that I have house ruled it as a Soldier Spec.
On the other hand, Shistavanen is a pretty positive addition.

Because Vader was never out there, hunting for rebels? Because literally none of the people who hired him ever thought to collect on the Imperial bounty on Jedi (which people were collecting on on Ben literally within five minutes of him being known as a jedi)? How does Luke and all the rest magically know about him when the entire Empire didn't?

Again, why does he HAVE to be an order 66 survivor? What does it add to the character other than a need to handwave in a ton of bullshit to explain how he survived?
>>
>>47192038
>does Luke and all the rest magically know about him when the entire Empire didn't
He hid in Hutt Space, lived out his life without the force. When the Empire fell, he reveals himself.

Vader and Inquisitors easily could have missed a few in a Galaxy as large as Star Wars.

>>
>>47192886
That's a pretty nice boon desu.


>>47191391
Alright I will try to un-do this situation.

>Not a mercenary group like normal, make it more terrorist-esque, or at the least extremely selective
>People don't HAVE to know he is a jedi. Hell he could have a lightsaber and say he killed someone for theirs, why not. MAYBE he turned IN a Jedi as a disguise to the Empire (after all, what better disguise than to deliver a jedi's body to your local Stormtrooper FOB? Doesn't matter if he killed them or not, and it would give him a ruthless reputation). At the same time the few people who saw him with saber and force powers in tow were SAVED by him or KILLED by him, making them unlikely to rat him out.

>The guy is technically only a padawan and fled to bumfuckistan on the outer rim, living in merc campment to merc campment.

>Mercs are all former Clone War soldiers from same unit (not clones, volunteers), hence less likely to turn in one of their own or fuck with each other.

>Luke doesnt go to him because theres two things going on at once, Luke goes to one place to search, PCs go to another.

You can't have an openly jedi guy running around. That's suicide of the highest order. You need someone who only whips out their powers in "generic Jakku-tier backwater #309,841" so that no one is fully aware of the situation. Make it so the legends of the man isn't about his force powers. He may have killed a hundred storm troopers, but the public doesn't need to know HOW, they may simply think he is a super-badass like Fett.
>>
>>47193039
It's a one-off.
>>
Here's a suggestion: split the order 66- survivor and evil force mercenary into separate characters: you have the Survivor, who hid out deep in the unknown regions, way off the map. There, he trained an apprentice who became a somewhat infamous mercenary in the Unknown Regions and Wild Space, before taking his show on the road in the known galaxy.
This also gets Luke out of the way; before the mercenary starts REALLY causing trouble , Luke finds out about the survivor and launches an expedition to find the guy. So when the mercenary starts shit, the players gotta deal cause Luke is literally months away out in fuck nowhere

I'd call it a 7/10 story with thematic fights that aren't meant to be taken literally.

In oldcanon it seemed more Jedi survived Order 66 than ever existed.

Can you guys help me out? What are some interesting reasons for a character to hate the Jedi and serve the Empire. My GM is running a dark times Imperial game sometime soon. There's already a sithaboo fledgling Inquisitor and Ubese bounty hunter in the party.
>>
>>47201546
Easy. They come from an Empire core world, like Corruscant. And they are middle to upper class, and were raised by some gullible fucks who bought into the whole "jedi are evil" propaganda. It can be as simple as that's just how the character was raised.

In some ways, I think that's more interesting than the metric fuck-ton of bad fanfic reasons like "jedi murdered my robot mom", or "jedi raped my hutt father with a broom handle". With how often players try to make some huge grandiose story for their characters, I find it's more interesting to make simple backstories that don't involve epic events.
>>
>>47201546
The Jedi Order split apart families finding students, hindered itself with the Republic's bureaucracy and goals more often than not, becoming almost non-interventionist, and when it did act, it preferred finding nonviolent methods that were slower than cutting straight to the chase. Those are all three good starting points.

I'm with you. I've never had much emotional resonance with things like "my whole village was burned down by a Dark Jedi and that is why I relentlessly hunt the Sith" or "There was an old prophesy that names me, and so I am hunted by those who seek to keep me from my destiny". I much prefer something like "My father's temper drove our family apart, and he died alone. That is why I stigmatize those whose credo is to project one's anger out into the world".

In point of fact, I've got a player in my EotE campaign who is a Twi'lek bounty hunter. Her Obligation is "Obsession: Twi'lek Stereotype". That's it-- her character has an easily pushed button when it comes to the stereotype her people have as spice-dealers, slavers, and dancers.

To each their own, obviously, but I find the small stories very satisfying.

Inquisitor is going to be brutal in skirmish. When it comes up, "Deadly" is the best surge ability in the game. And he has surge abilities for every situation. Plus his health, speed, defense, and attack are all solid.

Even though it's reasonable given the in-universe reason of it being a crutch/tool for the shittily trained Inquisitors - what is dumb is that it doesn't make sense for him to use it since for this particular Inquisitor he was retconned to having completed his Jedi training; not to mention the weird helicopter function

Kanan firing keeps the Inquisitor guarded and defending, which is a decent tactic.

At a glance, I think he'd be OK if they nerfed his health (down to 10-12) and his cleave (to cleave 1, if he kept it at all). If they did that, he'd still be excellent at murdering other mid-cost uniques, but he'd suffer against trooper spam. Cleave 3 is too good, especially when it appears he can use it on a ranged attack, and he is too durable.

I've rolled up two characters for me and my better half to dick around with and I'm so happy how simple they are. Just normal people on Tatooine with a ton of debt. Running missions for a few hundred credits, dreams of the big time with no chance of it. No ship, just a small hovel of a home. If anyone gets tired of big guns and force powers I'd suggest a one shot where you're just normal no experience people doing simple stuff in a bigger world.

My guess would be it just accelerates natural healing processes, so it can't regenerate limbs, but reattaching a severed limb might be possible if the cut was clean and it was done shortly after the trauma occurred. Similar to reattaching a finger these days, but better.

Bloodline Spoilers

[spoilers]It's pretty good and might even give you some feels. Also, Casterfo did nothing wrong[/spoilers]

But seriously

[spoilers]Neither Leia or Luke told anyone with one exception; Han is literally the only other person in the galaxy who apparently knows at the beginning of Bloodlines. Unfortunately, Bail is still accidentally fucking everything up from beyond the grave and left a holo for Leia explaining her parentage and one of her political opponents finds it. Whoops.[/spoiler]

Really, the book itself does a good job of representing Leia's struggles with her parentage and the fact that she's not exactly happy about the whole thing. At one point it talks about how when Luke tried to explain how Vader redeemed himself and became Anakin Skywalker in the end and how she in turn accepted on some level it was the truth but just couldn't understand or appreciate it personally.

If you look at Jedi from a propaganda perspective it's easy to make them look shitty:

1-Mind trick = mind-rape. The clone wars actually had a pretty nice moment involving this.
2- They take babies (the Empire News Network can say they were forced abductions, why not)
3- once taken the padawans are tossed into dangerous situations (have you ever been shot at in the line of duty? How old were you? Now Imagine being shot at in a ghetto at 11 years old).
4- the Jedi are their own whole branch and stuff, separate from most of the republic. You could argue their oversight is nonexistent, which makes them un democratic.
5- they failed to act with regards to the corruption of the old republic
6- you can blur the lines of Jedi and sith. Count dooku WAS a Jedi, most people don't know he was a sith.
7- >It's treason then
>spin_to_win.png
>coup attempt

It doesn't take too many headlines of "JEDI FAIL TO STOP SENATE MOLESTATION RING", "JEDI PADAWAN: STUDENT OR CHILD SOLDIER?!?!" and "JEDI MIND TRICK, VIOLATING OF YOUR RIGHTS IN THE NAME OF 'Justice'" to make them look bad.

Fairly sure the Imperials had COMPNOR (sub- Coalition for Progress) lay the smack down on every junk media outlet in the galaxy to just pump out 24-7 amounts of propaganda about Jedi and the Republic being a corrupt cesspit of money wasting and ineffectual government. Well in the latter they probably didn't have to go very far to find actual examples of it either.
As for the Jedi, they probably hit them with the tar and feather for a few years until they where largely gone and then hit the erase button so everyone forgets about them, wipe it all out from all forms of media- which is actually not too improbable given they don't use paper in star wars.

Heck, in a pinch they just roll out media devices which don't use the old software format, kind of like trying to read MacWrite or Gypsy files on Word :)

Kerkoiden.png
524 KB, 767x1096
So, GM's running a campaign set in 1500 BBY, and he tells us specifically to make "evil" characters. I'm flipping through the books, looking for some "scummy-looking" races, and I notice the Kerkoidens, I kinda liked the way they looked and I liked their mechanical bonuses. Problem is, I'm still a little new in the lore department, and it turns out the only one of their race that's had any screentime is this asshole, and he's in like all of one episode. Information on them in other places is pretty much sparse to nonexistent.

So anyway, I'm trying to draw up a background for my character. So far, I've decided that he's an exiled noble who turned to assassination and the GenoHaradan out of desperation, who fights with a vibrorapier and is well-versed in the art of fencing.

What I'm still trying to figure out is what exactly occurred to cause him to be exiled in the first place; any suggestions?
>>
>>47211898
>What I'm still trying to figure out is what exactly occurred to cause him to be exiled in the first place; any suggestions?
killed somebody in a dual and had to run?
was on the loosing side of a power play?
stole a buncha money?
got the wrong lady pregnant?
>>
>>47211990
I like the power play angle, might use that.
I had considered the dueling backstory before, but the legality was always a little nebulous for me. As far as I know, duels between nobles were pretty big in the Old Republic; surely there'd be some sort of rules about proper duels: like if both parties agreed to a duel to the death, would there be some legal way the victor couldn't be prosecuted?
>>
>>47212081

Duels were supposed to be pretty formalized. Improptu and therefore illegal dueling was a great way to get into trouble. Especially if there was bodily harm or death.

One bad enough fight can trigger a whole feud and that might be a good reason to get the fuck out of dodge. It could either be a cowardly run away or his family genuinely caring enough to see him protected.
>>
>>47212081
>but the legality was always a little nebulous for me
it varies by planet, as with almost all criminal law in the old republic
>surely there'd be some sort of rules about proper duels: like if both parties agreed to a duel to the death, would there be some legal way the victor couldn't be prosecuted?
yeah, they might not get prosecuted legally, but it could easily start a feud. alternately they broke the dueling rules in an otherwise legal dual and had to run for that reason
>>
>>47212528
>>47212547
So, impromptu duels weren't especially legal, then? Good to know, considering I was planning using them as one of his assassination methods. How common was it for nobility to openly carry weapons in the era; were nobles attending important events usually disarmed before attending, or were they allowed to keep their weapons? one of the primary reasons I wanted for him to have a vibrorapier is they're completely silent apparently, but if a sneak attack wasn't viable, I was considering infiltrating the event and challenging the mark to an impromptu duel, and then scuttling off before the authorities could arrive, though that might be a little too attention-grabbing and might cause people to get suspicious if it happens too often.

Even with Chaardan Refits, you'd only have 5pts to spend upgrading those, which simply isn't enough. All of those listed ships require upgrades to make them work.

My advice is either drop an A, downgrade both to Green or Prototypes, or if you don't have the parts for a Stressbot or a TLT, drop the Y.

If you need space for a mod on Omega Leader too, there are a couple of cheaper aces than Soontir Fel.

VI, TIE/x1, ATC Vader is legit at 31, as is PtL, TIE/v1, Stealth Inquisitor. Either frees up the points to run Stealth on Omega (I assume you're running Juke and Comms on her already?)

Epic X-Wing, who's currently playing it?

I play team epic pretty regularly, last time I ran with this.

Chewie with Luke and 3PO, Dash with Leebo, Hera with Sabine and Chopper, Ezra and Kanan in the shuttle. 200 points of thematic goodness.

My partner had CR90 with Han crew, Roark and Tuketu. Our opponents had a half dozen bombers, a Phantom, a punisher, and a Raider.

Hera tanked the bombers' first salvo thanks to reinforced deflectors and then she dropped bombs and even killed the Phantom, living to the end with 1 hull, 1 shield. Ezra launched and went bomber hunting, killing 3.

Chewie, Dash, and the CR90 destroyed the Raider and punisher, then went to finish off the bombers.

It was super cool having all the heroic ships and crews winning as plot dictates.

Prosthetics cost is probably a few orders of magnitude too low; the costs they've quoted for are for myoelectric prostheses, which functionally speaking are shit even when compared to Vaders intentionally shitty arms. I'd bump it up to a few million to get something more like DARPA's Luke arm.

Te last team Epic game I played in, I fielded a psycho-Tycho, 2 Green Squadron As with PtL, and a trio of Blue Squadron B-Wings with Heavy Laser Cannons and Fire Control systems. My teammate ran 4 B-Wings, two of which were Ten Numb with Calculation, and Keyan Farlander. All had Heavy Laser Cannons. He also had a jacked up E'Tahn in there who tanked the first round of fire like a champ (Sensor Jammer, Stealth Device, and some savvy rolling.

We demolished the front half of a Raider in about a turn, and started our attack run on the rear when we had to call it. B-Wings with Ordnance and/or Heavy Laser Cannons are death in Epic. Especially seven of them.

The corvette is a repaint of the normal FFG model. The Nebulon is 3rd party, think the guy who makes them is still on Shapeways if he hadn't been v& by Disney. The ISD was a custom job made for the NoVA Open gaming convention. 8' long, lit up, it is a glorious beast.

I have a few questions about Wedge in X-Wing:
1. Is it a good idea to give him Engine Upgrade?
2. What's the best astromech for him?
3. Most importantly, with how much the game has evolved in four years, is he still worth using?
>>
>>47217029
B-wings are great fire support in Epic. I'd go for those with FCS and whatever secondary weapons you want. You don't need an ace pilot in them, but the 2pt difference between Blues and Daggers does actually make a difference when big ships are on the board.

The Z missile swarm isn't bad, but B's are just so much beefier, and can deliver a payload for more than 1 turn. After the Zs launch their missiles, they don't do much. But B-Wings can still produce reliable amounts of firepower. I would recommend either going Heavy Laser Cannons, or Torps + EM (Guidance Chip) and *maybe an Ion.

You could also run both, which isn't a bad idea. Although As and Bs are my preferred combination.
>>
>>47217130
1 - Yes. Wedge benefits the most with some kind of repostioning action. Engine Upgrade is optimal, because it leaves your EPT open. Expert Handling is an option... But it needs an R2.

2 - Depends upon what EPT he has. If he's generating stress (e.g. Push the Limit), and needs to burn it, go generic R2 and open up that dial. If you want hin to stick around longer and don't mind slow-rolling, take R2-D2. Skip most of the R5s, and stress bot. They don't do much for his setup. Ignore the temptation to go R7-T1. Not worth it, and too situational.

3 - Eh... He hasnt shown up in many competitive lists of late, as Poe has taken over that slot. But he's still probably one of the best T-65s you can get. I've seen some really nasty builds with him, such as pairing him off with Jan Ors, who bumps him up a red die...

Wedge's biggest problem is that he gets a lot more mileage out of EU than the "X-Wing fix", Integrated Astromech. And this makes him pricey to consider. If you want him low(er) cost however, Expert Handling, generic R2, and Integrated Asto isn't a bad combination... But you really are better with PtL, R2, and Engine Upgrade.
>>
>>47217387
I'd rather give him Predator than PTL.
>>
>>47217436
Predator works well, too. PtL just lets him Focus/TL and Boost at the same time. R2 gives him the 2-speed greens to shed that stress like an A-Wing or Interceptor. Predator IMO works best with R2-D2. Although I've seen a few builds giving him BB-8, which seems very intradesting.

I'm looking forward to try out a Vader's Finest Trooper squad on IA, whats the better choice between:

3xeSnowtroopers+VF
2xrOfficers
(tankier and can keep generating focus even without using VF focus ability)

or

3xeStormtroopers+VF
3xrOfficers
(set more on the offence, they trade the pierce for more damage and the regen ability for the reroll, no chance to focus outside of using VF focus ability though)

I'm leaning towards the Snowtrooper since they seem a lot more indipendent than the Stormies but i still have to try them so i don't really know wich one is better.

Well, if they're going to use that as a reference, then they could have at least gotten the number of prostheses right.
>>
>>47217874
You don't need 4 most wanted. 4 TLTs is that rare combination of extremely obnoxious and not good outside of stomping noobs. Feedback swarm is nice, but 4-5 plus another ship is objectively better. Instead get a starviper and YV-666.
>>
>>47217874
I personally don't think you need more than 2 Most Wanted packs. If need be, you can always get Zs and Ys separately. Besides you get enough stuff in a Most Wanted pack to run 2 Y-Wings, even though it comes with 1.

The TLT spam and Bugzapper are probably two of the most dull lists to play, honestly. And people are starting to learn how to counter the triple Jumpmaster. IMO, 2 is enough.

As for what else to get... Get an HWK-290. Or two. The Scum ones are really good. Like, stupid good, and fun to use. Get a Starviper. They're tricky to master, but surprisingly fun to fly. Plus they have Autothrusters. The unpronounceable K fighter isn't a bad ship to get. It's a nice filler for 20pts, and the dial's a bleached B-Wing.

Other than that, Slave-1 and Hounds Tooth, but you can get those later whenever you feel like it. Don't bother with Scyks... At least not until they get a fix.
>>
>>47214669
interceptors without the aces pack is pretty much wasted. Interceptors alone are very weak, especially without the title the aces pack provides. Vader is really good, but again the tie advanced needs the title card from the Imperial Raider kit to really be effective. That being said,even without the royal guard title, a push the limit interceptor with high enough Pilot School is still a serious threat. I'm going to guess that because you only have these kids, you do not have the auto thrusters upgrade card. this is essential on any good Arc Dodger,and as of right now only comes in the Starviper kit.
>>
>>47218688
Soontir with PtL and Turr are plenty good out of the box. Autothrusters and more mods just make them better.
>>
>>47219383
Turr just needs Vet Instincts and he instantly goes from pretty good to joust-murderer. Having Autothrusters mostly helps to keep him alive against turrets.

A 'Clone Wars Retrofit' (or something like that) pack for Rebels with an original-plating Y-Wing is definitely at the top of my list.

Where's my fucking Pinooks, FFG?
>>
>>47224551
Correct me if I'm wrong, but hasn't FFG already added every feasible Rebel/New Republic/Resistance ship to X-Wing?
>>
>>47225814

Not even close. Even if you just count NuCanon there are at least several ships that can be added to each faction plus at least a couple for TFA era stuff.

Technically the empire only paid for 3 prosthetic limbs, the right arm was scratch built (and maintained by) Anakin Skywalker after getting diced up by Count Dooku

It's a flying shotgun. Low agility, not terribly agile, but it's got a 180 degree firing arc, a ton of hull/shields, and a ton of options. Keep it cheap with all the crazy good 1 point crew (Boba, Greedo, Zuckuss), Gunner/Bossk for crazy reliable shooting, fly Bossk around doing 5 damage off of 4 dice, use Latts to reduce an enemy's agility so other models can tear it up. It's an incredibly flexible and fun ship.

>>47222445
Just a generic R7 works.

Try this instead...

Basically just swapping R2D2 for a generic R2 unit, and throwinf R5-P9 on Poe.

Can we really call Order 66 a success anymore? Yes it de-established the Jedi's power, but we keep hearing about more and more who escaped through one means or another.

>>47229206
FFG is refusing to release an Episode VII-themed RPG, sticking to only a preview game and keeping everything as it stands EU-themed.
>>
>>47229242

They've already released a half dozen Force Awaken's sets for X-Wing though.
>>
>>47229242
Or they are just starting with a preview game and we'll eventually see a VII source once there's more nucanon material
>>
>>47229033
The usual explanation were that the rebels were scrounging parts and ships. Basically they were underfunded 'rebels', imagine that.
>>
>>47229033
This was explained in the original cross sections book. Y-Wings are maintenance hogs that require constant tlc, and the parts can't be accessed without the armour being removed.

Rebel techs got so frustrated with stripping off the armour daily, they just left it off for good. Actually helped fix its overheating problems too.
>>
>>47229129
it killed most of the jedi it was meant to. there were always going to be stragglers, that's what vader and the inquisitors were for

This new trend with calling The Inquisitor "Inky" is pretty fucking retarded.

>>47229722
>>47229296
This is very ironic since in vidya y-wings are used as heavily armored bombers, but to have no armor and exposed internals would be a death sentence
>>
>>47230448
New trend? It's been around since close to when the show first started airing.
>>
>>47230884
From what we see of them in both Clone Wars and them in later era, the casing is like stormtrooper armor; it doesn't do shit. They have no added suitability from it. Couple that with the fact that they require frequent maintenance and you get irritated techs saying "fuck it, I'm just leaving it off, I don't care how ugly it looks."
>>
>>47230977
To be fair, even if it can't stop a ship-mounter laser cannon, the casing probably helps protect from the internals from shrapnel, light arms fire and atmospheric debris.
>>
>>47231059
Micrometeorites wiz around at like 13,000 mph, as do screws and flecks of paint. Low orbit debris ain't nothing to fuck with. That alone could justify it
>>

Imperial Assault just keeps getting more previews and announcements. Today it's for the Agent Blaise villain pack.

https://www.fantasyflightgames.com/en/news/2016/5/13/a-ruthless-interrogator/

Empire is finally getting its own way to fuck with command cards. Rebels draw lots and can shuffle back in with Leia, Mercenaries strain to make you discard your deck, and now Empire can straight up discard from your hand.

On the other hand, the sculpt on the figure is awful. Looks like he's shouting at kids to get off his lawn.

I find most of the IA minis to be pretty bad sculpts DESU. They're not first print X-wing blister bad, but they're close.

>>47221922
I love my Wedge, Wes, and Jan list. It's a one trick pony and pretty easy to deal with if the enemy can focus fire, but that potential 6 dice shot is always worth it.

He's basically the hard counter to Leia

>>47229265
3, actually. A 4th is currently in development.
>>
>>47232872
And a 5th. I want Kylo's bat-shuttle now dammit
>>
If I already got original core, tie interceptor, tie advanced and imperial aces sets, is there any use getting TFA core set? Or any other recommendations?
>>
>>47233859
New damage deck if you intend on playing competitively is required.
>>
>>47233516

I want both Kylo's shuttle and Leia's cannibalized B-Wing transport.
>>
>>47233944
No, that was retconned. You can now pick whichever damage deck you want to use. The advantages are minimal, but the older one does help *a little* if you plan on only using generics without secondary weapons.
>>
Is the Ghost worth it ?
>>
>>47234493
worth it to what end?
>>
>>47234864
Worthy as in, you can still hope to win by playing it
>>
>>47234919
Very much so

It's a four dice primary weapon that can be modified in many ways. Or one of the few ways to guarantee damage, the combination of autoblaster turret and accuracy corrector is devastating against the likes of soontir fel.
>>
>>47234919
The ship itself is a big tank, like the decimator. It lacks the PWT, but has a high primary forward and rear arc, and the ability to take a turret. The shuttle's cute, and is the cheapest 3-die attack ship for the rebels.
>>
>>47207577
The whole ship gets the benefit.
>>
>>47234950
>>47235162

Glad both the Ghost and the attack shuttle are worth it. What would you field as third ship ?
Not looking to win nationals but still have something good.
Sorry if there is an obvious ship to the list but i just started.
>>
Good news; now that the semester's over for me, I am actually going to finish transcribing and editing Han Solo: Jedi Knight chapter three.
For the approximately two of you who still care after all this time, it'll be up later today. I think it would have been funnier if I got off my ass and did this on April first.
>>
>>47235394
Millenium Falcon pairs well with it. Could also throw in a "prototype" B-Wing with a Heavy Laser Cannon.

I might drop tactical jammer for an initiative bid, it doesnt seem like it'd bring a lot to the list. Overall I'm concerned that the list just won't have enough damage output. Maybe drop Ezra to Zeb and throw in some Crack Shots?
