Bored, bored, bored... What's everyone's favourite Systems Upgrade?

By HoundsTooth, in X-Wing

FCS with R7 astromech is interesting. So, you fire at the enemy and then get a free TL. If they shoot at you, R7 can make them re-roll any dice they get. They can't modify those dice after the fact. So, you have the chance to really mess with their ability to hit you. Not bad....

Yes they can. They cannot reroll them, but they can modify them with a focus token (or stress token via Keyan) or Marksmanship.

Not if you follow the rules:

1) Attacker modifies dice

2) Defender modifies dice.

So, if they fire and don't spend their Focus, they can't modify it in any way. It happens in order. You can't have the attacker modify....then the defender....and then the attacker again.

you sure? I think you have it backwards

I think I'm going to like Accuracy Corrector, especially paired on a ship that has "when you hit" triggers, if there are any.

Fire Control Systems takes the win for being the systems upgrade I most widely use.

There are plenty in the Ordnance and Cannon worlds, and we've got plenty of those with sensor-slots already.

I thought of one possible use for Enhanced Sensors, pairing it with sensor jammers and an intel agent to create two highly efficient blockers, and two ships to back them up, hitting hard and benefiting fully from sensor jammers, assuming the enemy has been blocked and is not getting actions.

I call it:

HOW CAN THEY BE JAMMING US IF THEY DON'T KNOW WE'RE COMING?

FCS is the one I use the most. AdvSen usually seems to be like a trap. More mobility for what....? As someone else said before.

Sensor Jammer is great for Shuttles in Epic. Protecting them from the mean ol' terrorist snipers on huge ships.

Its really sad the Decimator doesn't get them. Decimators are gonna be the least epic ship in Epic. Which really sucks. They're also gonna get focus fired or left for last. =(

Errr......will need to check rules now...

Having a Wes/Etahn(sensor jammer) combo would be an expensive, _nasty_ pairing. They each make the other hit harder, and Wes protects Etahn just by being nearby. Seems like it should be as good as Biggs in that regard.

The easiest way to remember it is that the person who rolled the dice always modifies them second. So yes, you can modify a die with focus after sensor jammer converts it to an eyeball, and the same with your attack dice if they are rerolled by an R7 astromech (though you can't reroll them again).

I might say this as: my dice? My final say!
