I don't know. I'm not all that sold on Autothrusters being an auto-include for A's. And i don't like using Chardaan because i feel Prockets offsets the A-wings red dice problem for at least an alpha strike, hence why i pitched it as a mod. Anyways, ill take the oenshot into consideration, and ill try to get some playtesting in this weekend. I'll post some results later, probably Monday-Tuesday.
A-wing swivel modification
Where did i ask for your opinion on anything but the modification in question? The opening statement makes it pretty clear this thread is for people who feel it needs some more oomph. You obviously feel it doesn't need anything, so you don't need to read any further nor post any further. Don't be surprised when people take offence to your inability to follow basic forum etiquette.Thanks for posting off topic. I asked for constructive input, if you're not going to help the door is that way.A Wing seems fine as is. It's nimble and cheap. That's the compensation for the two attack dice.
I offered an opinion and substantiated it. Don't get pissy just because it differs from your idea.
This isn't a debate on the merits between a A-wing or interceptor, stop derailing, this kind of behavior is getting out of control on these forums.
Are you the Internet Polce? My opinion was applicable to the topic. The behavior out of control on the forums are all the ridiculous posts of what FFG should do with the game, most of which they will never do; the rest just highly unlikely. These clog the forum and spread misinformed negative viewpoints about ship costs and function. Instead, let the designers design the game--they're paid experts, after all--and stick to theory crafting and list building and tournament results and meta trends and MathWing and things some of us might actually know something about.
How is it applicable? We had a thread on whether the A-wing needs fixing, this isn't that one. This was for thoughts and ideas on a proposed swivel modification. You clearly have plenty to say about the former, and nothing on the later since you feel its not needed, hence you don't need to post in here, just pass up the thread. Plenty of people use Hosue Rules or theory craft, you goingn to run around and "Internet Police" them because they aren't FFG designers? Good lord.

Very original of you to throw the same accusation back. No, I had a moment of annoyance at your thread and posted my opinion.
Simply amazing. Well, i am terribly sorry i annoyed you so much you felt you had to come in here and let me know i was offending your sensibilities.
Edited by Bipolar PotterI was expressing myself on an open forum. Not sure why you feel more entitled to do so than me.
Fine and dandy, but you weren't contributing to any kind of positive conversation. You said yourself that you were annoyed and felt you had to post your opinion in a thread not actually related to your opinion. Kudos for you.
Edited by Bipolar PotterNo, I said it was related. Thanks for the kudos. Glad you came around.
Ah, i see i've been trolled into derailing my own thread. For shame.

This is how you've been trolled?

Man, you're easy. I wasn't even trying. So how's that staying on topic working for you?
We should have s-foils on X and B-wings.
Discuss.
I think letting the A-wing fire backwards would be fine in lore it can, with a small arc and two firepower it would hardly be game breaking.
However i think only an experianced pilot could pull it off so why not make it a EPT for pilots over PS5?
I didn't consider the EPT route, but i think that's because in my mind A-wing EPT choice is so clogged i didn't want to make more competition.
Well since rebel aces came out they can take two so i thought it'd be an option:
A-wing only:
A pilot of pilot skill four or higher may fire the primary weapon behind the ship.
Of course you'd need a solution to the rear arc not being displayed on the base.
After reviewing the thread, I've changed my mind. I think this is a fantastic idea and not at all dumb. However, if FFG were going to do something like this, don't think they would've released it with Rebel Aces? I don't see them doing anything radical with the A-Wing anymore.
Edited by z0m4dIt all depends on if A-wings start to show up in tournament's, if they are still felt to be too weak and lacking they may get another adjustment.
And there's no harm kicking around an idea.
