A couple questions about the Senator's Shuttle from Mission #1.

What is its pilot's skill?

Its stats say it has a hull value of 6 but if playing with 100 point squads it has a shield value of 6. Am I correct in assuming that's an "AND" statement. It has 6 hull AND 6 shield.

(its not exchanging hull for shields)

You move it at the start of the activation phase,kinda like if it had pilot skill -1. It has 6 hull and 6 shields only if the players use the extended version of the mission by making 100 point squads. By default, however, since this mission comes in the starter box, FFG assumes many people will only be able to field 2 TIEs and 1 X-wing, so the normal version of the shuttle is 6 hull 0 shield.

Thank you.

New question. Does anyone have a homemade Senator's Shuttle ship card?

Please share the link.

I'm thinking they'd make good, unique door prizes at a tournament I'm hosting.

Yeah, BGG file deposits are great for that kind of stuff. Another thing to hunt out for are some custom made maneuver reference cards. People work on those regularly. Having them printed out can help introduce the game to new players on the table.
