Hey everyone - my copy of the Rebel Transport expansion has arrived from Barnes and Noble! Am at work so don't have time to do a spoiler of absolutely everything (e.g., the new damage cards) but here are the new upgrade cards that have not yet been spoiled by FFG

R4-D6 (Unique)
Cost: 1
Type: Astromech

At the start of the Activation phase, you may discard this card to treat each friendly ship's pilot skill value as "12" until the end of the phase.

Hull Breach x2

Place 1 of your Upgrade cards under this card. You cannot use that Upgrade card while this card is faceup. Energy: Spend 2 energy to flip this card facedown.

Secondary Drive Failure

You must spend 1 energy to perform any action.

This card counts as 2 damage against your hull.

Aft (10 cards; all are Ship type damage)

Reactor Cowl Rupture

When you perform a recover action, you cannot recover more than 2 shields. You must still spend all of your energy.

Awesome. I suppose I'll be stopping by my B+N today during lunch to see if I can pick one up.

R5P9 on a ship with Kyle and Garven in the game. Wintastic.

Note that I'd be extremely surprised if anyone found these in their local stores. The listing probably went online sooner than it should have.

Make sure you call your stores before making the trip!

For those interested, the maneuver dial on the transport itself (all white):

1 Forward - 3 Energy

1 Bank - 2 Energy

2 Forward - 2 Energy

2 Bank - 1 Energy

3 Forward - 1 Energy

4 Forward - no Energy

For those interested, the maneuver dial on the transport itself (all white):

1 Bank - 2 Energy

2 Forward - 2 Energy

2 Bank - 1 Energy

3 Forward - 1 Energy

4 Forward - no Energy

Is the listed energy that much you get for doing that maneuver, or how much it costs to do the maneuver?

That much you get. So I take it there is no stop on the dial?

Yep, that's everything on the dial.

WANT

Oh, and just because someone has to...

The first transport is away!

1 point for that first droid seems like pretty good value.

R5-P9 wow!

Nice job man. Good looking out for the community.

That much you get. So I take it there is no stop on the dial?

Thanks.

Not including a stop seems odd. You would think a stop makes more sense on the bigger ships than it would say the shuttle.

Stop - 4 energy.

Oh well...still looking forward to it.

*Crowd Cheering*

Now then, what does the Bright Hope title do? Also, some of these upgrades have energy costs, and some of them have increases for maximum energy values, yes? :3

R5P9 on a ship with Kyle and Garven in the game. Wintastic.

Even without, knowing that I have something positive I can do with a focus token is pretty killer.

But I'm pretty sure this works like all the other upgrades, and won't let you spend more then 1 focus token at a time. The (up to your shield value) is on R2-D2 and other cards, just to stop you from trying to get 6+ shields.

I know. But it means you can almost always engineer ending with a focus token.

I would assume that any Stops would not grant energy. Given the red stop on the shuttle.

I guess that could work too. My thinking was they get the extra energy because they didn't need to expend it to propel the ship forward.

Since the dial doesn't have a stop, i guess it doesn't really matter... *shrug*

Houserule?

someone will have to figure out how hard it is to prevent a transport from eventually leaving the map. Do you you absolutely have to keep very close to the edge and start banking pretty soon?

I can try to provide pics, etc tonight

The new card type is "Cargo."

The new upgrade types are:

-Cargo (tons of little dots)

-Teams (head silhouettes?)

-Hardpoint (bracket-like shape)

Look at it this way - actually stopping would require an immense energy expenditure. The Transport would have to either have equally powerful engines in the nose, or flip end for end and use those engines to brake. Neither is instantaneous, and both require a ton of energy output.

The 1-speed moves very much may be the pilot taking his foot off the gas and the ship coasting purely on its own existing inertia. Although if there was a card or something where you could spend energy to not move, that would be kind of cool too.
