Does the inclusion of the Binayre Pirates make it seem likely that Kath is one of the unrevealed FS pilots? Are we going to get all 3 in S&V versions or are there other candidates?
I think it was already confirmed that both bobba and kath were being done as scum pilots during the original wave 6 announcement.

The pilots are Boba, Kath, and Emon Azzameen. They are visible in the spread image.
Anyone else notice they didn't spoil the R4 (the one next to what looks like a Delta 7 in the Most Wanted fan)?

It's not a Delta-7, it's an XP-38. You can see the racing stripe, the bubble cockpit with two seats, and behind the cockpit you see the edge of the square, vaned center intake.
But yes, I noticed that it's not yet spoiled. 
As someone mentioned upthread, the card fan also includes what appears to be a unique R4 unit (immediately to the left of "Genius").
Just noticed the double-letter target locks. Do they really think someone is going to need 33 target locks in a single game?

Wait, you mean you don't play epic games of 12 z95s and 10 A-wings against 12 Tie Bombers and 7 Obsidian Squadron Ties with Targeting Computer? I thought we were all doing that
They're gonna make me wait right up until near release to finally see what the BTL-A4 Y-wing title says...
This is really the thing I want to know more than anything else in the whole Scum and Villiany wave.

No way will we wait til its actually out. There's usually only like 1 thing from each box that doesn't get revealed before new stuff comes out, and it is almost always the cost of some generic or the dial.

Ah yes. I'd forgotten about emon. Didn't know Kath was visible though.

You mean you don't? we've had to use dice and sugar cubes sometimes to keep track.

Four previews left. My bet is that Most Wanted (and BTL-A4) are last.

From the fan it looks like only 1... that would be a lot of Most Wanted packs to buy. But you'll need 4 anyway to run 7 scum Zs. Don't know if the Hot Shot blaster comes in another pack.
I think that would be a decent list. You don't have to formation fly and you can be pretty unpredictable with the Zs that have the Hot Shot. Does MF work on it?

There's 1 "Hot Shot" Blaster in each IG-2000 pack.

I like the idea of this, but I'd probably either do the defensive howlrunner Scyk, or something reasonably tanky to compliment it, personally.
How are you intending to fly it? Seems like you could go formation or not based on the matchup, which is really neat.
I pass on anything that forces me to fly on formation
Like all the things that I just saw... seems that the S&V will be a fun faction to play with.
Edited by DigitalkillerGot it! I'd probably do something like 4 of them and an IG-2000 or something then, again, personally.
I get nervous without something tanky and hard hitting though, it is probably a comfort zone I should work past.
I really hope this faction won't be too OP, otherwise it ends up ruining the game...
Also, get ready for a lot of mirror matches since everyone is gonna play as the Scum..
There's nothing yet to indicate that the Scum will be overpowered.

I think you'll only need 2 packs to run 8 (4 of the binarye, and 4 of the other generic), If we can use our rebel z95's and dials, otherwise you're right.

Have you bothered yet to do joust values for S&V ships? or is it too early.
I am betting that you can use the models from the rebel Z95s, but I would be that official events will require the proper dial. We'll have to wait and see though, but I'd imagine they would want the opportunity to do different dials for the same ship based on faction, even if they don't use it now/ever.

Not in official tournaments. You need the correct dial.

Yes, nothing seems overpowered, unless the named pilots turn out to be costed WAAAAAY more than the generics. The recent release of named pilots has stayed pretty close to the "standard" cost/PS progression though. Once all the generics are spoiled then we'll know for sure.
