Do you think there is enough awesomeness in Wave 6 to give all these large ship turrets a run for their money?
Wave 6 vs the Meta (or Turrets)
Depending on how maneuverable the IG-2000 and Starviper are, it could push turrets even further. However Scum also has 2 swarmable ships, and they tend to eat turrets up, so who knows.
So far I'm seeing crazy maneuverability with the S-turn, only high PS-pilots for the IG and a *very* cheap cannon carrier. Fat Han might not like meeting Fat Bobba and his 3 Ion-carrying friends...

How much do you think the base Scyk will cost? If it's 11pt (which I doubt), you could run 5Scyks with HLC ...
If the IG and starviper don't have much green on their dials I don't think the s-turn will be too crazy. Remains to be seen.
I bet the base Scyk is 13 or 14. If The PS8 skill is free then 20-6 leaves 14 for the PS2.

The PS7 Scyk is 20 points, so I'd guess 12-14 points for the PS2, following a 20/18/14/13 scale, similar to the Rebel Headhunters (19/17/13/12). Scum is already going to have a low-costed PS1 ship with the Headhunters, seeing as the most expensive pilot is 17 points and there's three pilots below him in cost. If they had a PS1 10-point ship and a PS2 11-point ship their swarms would be insane. I don't see the PS2 Scyk being 11 points, but you never know

There's already enough awesomeness in wave 1-4: TIE Swarms and Z-95 Swarms.
If Scum gets an 11 point PS1 Z-95, which is looking very likely with a 17 point PS7 pilot, then that would open up a whole other can of worms...
Edited by MajorJugglerThe "meta" aren't turrets. It's falcons. I know it sounds like nitpicking, but really, HWK and Ywings are not exactly over represented.
I don't really know what is coming from wave 6. Speculation is fun, but withouth the dials it is hard to come to anything close to which isn't pure speculation.
4 HLC carriers are still going to be a bad, bad day for a Falcon. There is still a lot we don't know about the wave though. The sheer number of different upgrade cards means there is likely to be a shake up.

This can't really be overstated. And it's why I'm eyeing Bombers these days.

Precisely. We have to remember that the wave will partially bolster Imperials and Rebels also. The AC is already the currently most talked about X-Wing card on the net, and Wave 6 is months away.

I cannot imagine them allowing you to make a 100 point build with 5 HLCs in it.

I love the way the way to beat Han Solo is with (then new + support) Boba Fett...
EDIT: Anyone else notice the Scyk PS 8 is Antihowlrunner?
The second Firespray looks a lot like it's called Emon Azzamen, which would make the title Andrasta.
