C3P0 can be used on the Lando Crewissian action.

Scariest scenario: (PTL + Millennium Falcon Title added)

Lando Action
Predict 1 Evade (Odds: 30 : 64)

Roll 1 Evade, 1 Focus (Odds: 12 : 64). Add a free Evade result for guessing correctly.

PTL for an Evade from the MF Title.

Net sum: 3 Evade Tokens, 1 Focus Token, 1 Stress Token.

...Profit?

Profit. And Latinum!

I think I like Jando with experimental interface better.

Chewie w/ Jan, lando, falcon, interface. Doesn't top out with as many tokens but it offers at least 2 evades very consistently.

Wait. I'm confused.

C-3P0 adds + 1 evade result, not an evade token, so using C-3P0 with the Lando action (rolling two defense dice) doesn't work.

Right?

*shrugs*

Jando still works if Jan's on another ship...

And how is this different than normal? And why would you use Threepio when there is a bit more options to get it wrong.

I had to re-read Lando to make sure it works.

The combo fails if: Lando doesn't roll Defense dice (he does), and if results don't matter to Lando (they do).

Edit, ninjad

Ah, okay, thanks,

My brain was hurting lol

True, in which case, kyle and lando with interface would be awesome.

Evade, lando (Jan modifies), stress.

Next turn:

Green for kyle (Jan modifies), evade, lando.

Could end up with up to 4 evade tokens a turn!

Lando is in the Action phase and you dont "predict" what youre about to roll. You roll 2 dice. For each Focus you roll you get a Focus token, and likewise for Evades, Evade Tokens.

The odds breakdown thusly:

For a single die, you're picking 40 : 64 for no evade vs 24 : 64 for an evade.

For two dice, it's 25 : 64 for no evade, 30 : 64 for one evade, and 9 : 64 for two evades.

HOWEVER: In a world in which Outmaneuver, Intimidation, Wedge Antilles, and Structural Damage exist, relying on your agility to trigger C3P0 for you may yet be foolish.

Lando is in the Action phase and you dont "predict" what youre about to roll. You roll 2 dice. For each Focus you roll you get a Focus token, and likewise for Evades, Evade Tokens.

C3P0 doesn't say anything about the phase he's in. He just requires that you're rolling defense dice, and that you haven't already used him this round.

So this has given birth to a list I'll try tomorrow night.

"Sidekicks"

Chewbacca (42)
Push the Limit (3)
C-3PO (3)
Lando Calrissian (3)
Engine Upgrade (4)
Millennium Falcon (1)

"Leebo" (34)
Determination (1)
Heavy Laser Cannon (7)
Jan Ors (2)

Total: 100

Chewie does his thing flying around and howling, Lando takes his action and rolls 2 Defense dice. PTL for Evade from the MF title. 3PO activates if attacked. If a Focus is rolled, Jan can turn it into an Evade. This gives a reasonable chance for up to 4 Evade tokens.

Could be amusing. Or annoying.

Ok got ya. This idea is only useful vs something with Outman though i'd assume...

How many would guess 2?! Would take some guts.

Sure it works but why would you?

You can only use it once per round, and your odds of guessing right with 2 dice is not as good as with 1 die, yet they yield the same result, adding 1 evade result. So just wait until you're attacked to use 3PO for your better odds...

Sure it works but why would you?

Precedent.

Im loving these ideas but the faclon is goin to be easy to predict with only 4 green moves. if you dont clear the stress then your left to relying on 3P0 and i dont like those odds. I still think Jan, Recon and Predator on Chewe is a safer and less stressful bet. but i must trust Lando one day just dont know when

They don't quite have the same effect actually. 3/8ths of the time 3PO gives you nothing if you're using it against an attack as you roll 1 anyway. If you use him with Lando, you could both get the evade token and still roll a natural evade on his first attack.

Simply: 3PO guarantees one and only one evade if used on an attack. Used with Lando, you could get 2 evades out of him (one from the guess, and another on the defense roll when attacked).

Like Secak said, but phrased differently:

3PO by himself guarantees that YOU WILL ROLL at least 1 evade

3PO with Lando guarantees that you will have at least one evade token IN ADDITION TO your roll.

Not going to lie: I'm not looking forward to flying against 3PLandO builds.

Much better phrasing herowannabe, thank you. My head had the idea but the fingers lacked the words!

How can Jan turn a focus roll into an evade?

How can Jan turn a focus roll into an evade?

Jan crew works on two conditions: either a ship performs the focus action, or a ship is assigned a focus token. Lando assigns a token for each result, thus Jan can flip a focus if it comes up on the die

Ah, of course, I took it as if he'd try to have Jan trigger off of 3P0. I misread.

Nope Fat Falcons are not getting any fatter this Holiday Season, we are putting it on a diet. Here is how.

You know who can shut down 3PO on a falcon, Wedge as he removes the evade dice by reducing the falcon 0 agility, so range 1 and 2 means no dice rolled means no C-3PO. Also put Test Pilot + Intimidation on Arvel and as so as you bump into the falcon that's 3 dice that negates C-3PO for Arvel and all his friends.
