Many Bothans died to bring us this information.

GENERAL MADINE

We have stolen a small Imperial shuttle. Disguised as a cargo ship, and

using a secret Imperial code, a strike team will land on the moon and deactivate the shield generator.

I was wondering if FFG would ever come out with pilot cards to allow the rebels to fly the lambda shuttle. The rebels were able to capture one in Return of the Jedi. I am thinking that they just need to make the shuttle cost a little more for the rebels. Any comments ?

Han Solo on the shuttle (if he shared his ablity) would wreck!

Sounds dangerous. I wonder who they found to pull that off.

Id like to add to this thread that while reading through the Star Wars X-Wing Series Wedge takes on the project of creating Wraith Squadron, similar to Rogue Squadron but excelling additionally at different aspects of ground warfare, sabotage and espionage, and for a while they flew imperial tie fighters and six tie interceptors, would love to see this brought into the game though im sure many people would be surprised/confused by rebels in tie interceptors

Personally I wouldn't want to see it. I wouldn't like to see the factions being able to share any ships, I feel it would just take away from the game. Also yes they captured the shuttle but I'm pretty sure it was just used to land the rebels on Endor and that's it.

Maybe something like this will be seen in the new "Cinematic" game type. I don't think we'll ever see that for Death Match though.

Then we could get Rookie One and Ru Murleen TIE Phantom pilots, since they were the only named characters to ever fly one. :P

A steal the shuttle mission would be cool, but it should stay in a scenario, not general play.

Jendon's ability reminds me of Tycho at the start of the X-Wing novel series. Might have to reread that novel to see which scenes are worth writing up a scenario for..

After randomly grabbing Iron Fist the book out of my storage room where I got the Hawk Bats and rebel tie interceptors from I started reading the first novel of the series after like 10 years. They put Tycho; who was apprehended by Imperials after the Battle of Bakura on a secret mission to Corusaunt, and escaped under suspicious circumstances, into a Z-95 head hunter with unpowered lasers and a remote control bomb, be hilarious to see that in this game

I was just thinking: "great more spoilers! All spoiler threads should have this title."

And now I see it's not a spoiler thread

The team's ready, they just don't have a command crew for the shuttle yet.
