Doesn't Unkar Plutt have the falcon before Rey steals it? He seemed pretty scummy to me so at least they have a story line to use.

Maybe his ability could be that any syndicate thugs in the squad cost 2 points less.... That would be a different ability that benefited the list building bit.

No, for game balance reasons, as the Scum would gain two of the most powerful ships from the Rebels

Yes, because everyone always complains about fat outer rim smugglers. Those 10 hit points backed up by a massive 2 attack dice are just brutal.

Be careful there. They just broke the meta in half with a statline not so different only a matter of months ago, eh?

what? have you been living under an asteroid? we've had these scum turret freighters for a while now

what? have you been living under an asteroid? we've had these scum turret freighters for a while now

Those didn't exist in the game two and a half years ago...

Depending on how the Han Solo movie works out, I could totally see FFG wanting to sell a third Falcon to everyone.

Edit: Why are we necroing this ancient thread? Bad noobie, bad!

In a fourth faction of Smugglers.

Get another version of Han and Chewie out there.

Some other smuggler pilots like BoShek.

Plenty of characters in the Mos Eisley Cantina and in Jabba's Palace were conspiring against The Empire or Jabba The Hutt.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with bumping a topic it it contains material relevant to what you wat to talk about HolySorceror. That is what the forum search control is for, after all.

Personally I'd love to see Scum get access to the YT-1300. There's a HUGE number of named Scum YT-1300s and pilots to choose from.

Give it the Outer Rim Smuggler stats, plus the Illicit Upgrade slot as a base line, then a dozen or so titles, all offering adjusting the ship in slightly different ways.

FOR EXAMPLE ONLY:

SABRA - your upgrade bar gains the Systems Upgrade slot

KRAYT FANG - you may perform two primary attacks per combat phase

LAST CHANCE - your action bat gains the Barrel Roll action

BLACKJACK - you may equip two illicit upgrades

OO-TA GOO-TA - you may equip two modifications

SELU - you may perform 3 Talon Rolls...

...and so forth, so on.

you'd need some actual gameplay feature to distinguish it from the JM5k though

reintroducing a strictly worse PWT doesn't seem like a fantastic idea when you already have the yt-1300 with far more iconic pilot split across the rebellion and resistance

and we can't even do something like double illicits anymore because the Shadowcaster beat us there

AND it has the far superior mobile arc mechanic

basically nixes any hope of seeing a scum yt-1300 right there

hell, the Shadowcaster actually out-pancakes the yt-1300

add a pair of breakfeast sausages for engines and you're done!
