What Scum & Villany ship are you most interested in seeing in the table?

By zathras23, in X-Wing

For me it's the IG-2000 due to its ability to share pilot abilities with other IG-2000s. I was able to decipher IG-88D's ability thanks to Voidstate's builder. When D does a Segnor Loop, it may use the turn of the same speed instead of the bank when performing the maneuver. I'm looking forward to see what the other 3 versions of IG-88 do and see what combos we can make.

in or on?

Ditto, the IG-2000 should be interesting

in or on?

On. :D

StarViper. It looks amazing. I was really impressed when I saw it in person. Further, it seems like the Scum version of the Interceptor/A-Wing, but beefier and potentially with an S-Loop. I'm really interested in this craft.

The IG-2000 is going to be really cool in large point games. Destroy one ship and suddenly the rest of his IG-2000s lose a special ability.

Besides that, I'm most interested in what "disruptive" (as hinted in the GenCon podcast) abilities Scum pilots have.

It's not technically a Scum ship, but I'm most interested in what their version of the HWK will do. I enjoy "control" builds, and from the description given by the designers the Scum HWKs sound like they're right up my alley.

No, clearly he did mean 'in the table'.

Having miniatures on the table just makes no sense.

**** it Jim, Im a doctor not a miracle worker

Get to the chopper

The HWK 290 and the Firespray look cool.

Starviper for me too, it seems to share a lot with the Tie interceptor and I've always been a sucker for high maneuvrability ships. Close second is the scyk because it also seems to be maneuvrable and the possibility to equip it with a cannon.

Scum looks to be a very fun faction to play!

For me its the Sick / scythe / synth / sausage what ever it's called.

But tbh I love them all and just can't wait

Call me a sucker for a villainness, but I like the idea of flying the Binayre Pirates. I hope they come out with a Scum Kath Scarlet and Z-95 henchmen.

HWK, no question. The rumors of a Jam action for that ship makes me giddy.

Star. Viper. An interceptor with built in sheild upgrade and the s loop?!?! Count me in. Oh, and it looks good too!

Combo'd with the defensice reroll "seek" fighter and I'm happy.

I too am awaiting the hwk and firespray updates. Don't tell the empire, but I might be doing a little merc work on the side.

Definitely the Star Viper and Scum versions of the Firespray.

Well I think you're in luck.

Kath is pretty much confirmed as the PS7 Firespray (same paintjob and first letters look awfully like a 'Kath'. As for the Binayre Pirates, the PS 1 Z-95 looks like it could be 'Binay...' and the paint job reminds me of the colors of Kath Firespray: red and light grey.

So, not 100% confirmed but, I would be very very very surprised if it was not the case.

Very interested in running 4 IG-2000s in an Epic match. Eeeny meeny miney mo...

StarViper, Firespray, IG-2000, HWK then Y-wing the Scyks and Z-95s are a nice bonus but I am not as excited for them as I am the others

Looking forward to the HLC swarm. Not to play, I just want to watch it remove Mr. Solo.

An exploding one.

Something else I just noticed is Scum Z-95's have Illicit slots. There is an Illicit upgrade card called Deadman's Switch included with the IG-2000. This is a guess but I think it does 1 point of damage to all ships within 1 of the ship when the ship carrying the upgrade is destroyed. I could see myself using 2 or 3 of these, driving into the middle of my opponent's force and daring him to shoot me down Kamikaze style.

Scyk's look like they could be a lot of fun, a small nimble ship that you can strap a really big gun onto. The other scum only ships aren't doing anything for me yet, but that can all change after a good showcase article. The most interesting part for my will be seeing what they are doing with the Z-95's,Firesprays etc to make them different from how they play with their original faction.

The Starviper is definitely the one I am looking forward to...Xizor looks awesome. Really awesome how customisable he is with the title.

..but I am wondering what they might do with the Aggressor. I think it would be really cool if they were not all 36 points. Imagine if there was a blank Aggressor for 30, one or two with a weak ability for 33 and then the one we know (plus another potential one) at 36. Meaning that you could use 3 in a 100 point list if you wanted. Though it would be a pretty scary list to face regardless of the ability mind melding.
