Soontir the Invincible! Double auto thrusters with Royal guards title! I am rolling... 2 blanks and 2 evade Han... Let's make it 4 evades!

You can't take two of the same mod, but yeah this card is brilliant for Fel/most Interceptors

Except you can't put the same mod on twice...

This will also help A-Wings too. All the ships with natural boost really a lot on green dice so this will help them a lot. I don't think I can build Soontir without this now.

Sadly you can't take two of the same upgrades. However, even one of these would be freaking brilliant on a high mobility fighter. I've got to try these out on my Interceptors in my next friendly game.

That card does not disappoint!

Yep did gonna work good with a Soontir list I was thinking about running

Sure you cannot have 2? There is no dot on it, so it's not unique, and for most modification having 2 would de pointless but not with autothrusters

The Royal Guard tie title says you cant have two of the same mod. Say's 'up to 2 different...'

Thank God it's a modification... So you can't put that on a Falcon with EU!

I believe Royal Guard prohibits mods of the same type. But yes, Soontir is now a GOD.

I think my heavy int list just got more lethal.

I'm going to drop the HU for autothrusters.

A few less hit points but a lot more hits coming in!

That also means i can take two named pilots rather than one, especially if i keep HU and drop SU for autothrusters!

Not to mention 1 point cheaper than he would be with a hull upgrade.

Prolly going to put back stealth device on him instead of the hull upgrade with that card! Anyway 2 of this would have made Soontir utterly Invincible and probably broken!

It will also be useful against all of those turret ships we are seeing.

Isnt that the point, its a slight buff to manouvre ships and a slight counter to overloaded turret ships :)

This card would have been good enough with just the out of arc buff. With both out of arc and range 3, it makes A-wings/Interceptors far too slippery.

Would this make Alphas with Howlrunner sitting at R3 worthwhile?

Only thing I'd say is I'd of loved it to be 'Range 2/3 or further' as 'beyond range 2' is going to cause some contention on the table.

A modest boost to mixed swarms, but yes.

Range 2/3 is very different than beyond range 2. Beyond range 2 clearly means range 3 or farther. While range 2/3 or farther includes range 2.

as 'beyond range 2' is going to cause some contention on the table.

Why? Beyond range 2 seems pretty easy to understand. I suppose it could of said range 3-5, but then that involves Epic. I think FFG was trying to avoid using phrasing that doesn't apply to the standard game.
