BRING THE OTANA!!!

By Joe Boss Red Seven, in X-Wing

I like the odds on this one.

As noted in the OP, FFG already has done art for it (and that's been a pretty consistent indicator in the past).

Secondly, the only 'named' pilot we have for it is Ace Azzameen. And his brother, Emon, we already have in the game , as a Scum Firespray pilot.

If art was all it took then where are all the wave 7 predictions for the I-7 Howlrunner?

Also there's two other named pilots, the robot and the sister.

We got Cloud Car art in Edge of the Empire too. WHERE'S MY CLOUD CAR!?!?

Are those things even space-worthy :wacko: ?

Are they even armed?

Their shots in Empire strikes back had Han a little bit panicked when they did shoot at him.

Which is a point that perhaps should be made in the "Ground Forces Expansion" thread, since someone was arguing there that speeders were substantially less powerful that star fighters.

I pointed out a single torpedo would destroy an at-at easily, and that most fighters mount cannons strong enough to damage capital ships.

Speeders carrying guns strong enough to harm a freighter is quite different from carrying guns strong enough to harm a frigate.

Speeders are typically less powerful than starfighters. The Falcon is also damaged by a single TIE fighter strafing run in Empire (with Threepio aboard, even), so either the canon representation of the Falcon should be something like 3 hull/0 shields or the Falcon's armor and shields are subject to substantial variation depending on the needs of the narrative.

EDIT: On topic, if the Otana is ever introduced, I'd expect it to be assigned to the Scum faction and to come after the iconic bounty hunters are all represented.

Alas, the one time I wish lore trumped gameplay

How desperate can these scum be if they have to hobble together any freighter they can find to fight the Empire?

Why not, when these freighters seem perfectly capable of eating those flying coffins the Empire tries to pass off as starfighters for breakfast?

What does that matter? The empire always has more personal and fighters. We threw enough of them at you and they get the job done eventually.

I have fond memories of X-wing Alliance, but yeah, the Rebels don't need another YT and it's really hard for me to see them as being part of the Scum and Villainy group. Emon even seems like a bit of a stretch, though his obnoxious fake Irish accent does make him seem a little thuggy. Antan maybe could fit.

Aeron could be another Rebel 1300 pilot card though, since she flew the Sabra alongside you in a number of missions. If they ever do release a YT-2000 I'd see it having cards for both factions.

This game needs more hyper-mobile turreted ships.

YEAH IT NEEDS MORE COOL SHIPS PERIOD...

You see, this is why we get so many defectors coming to fly for us instead.

Bring on the yt-2000!!

Bring on the yt-2000!!

I think they just might buddie!

How many are you gonna get?

:lol:

Depends on the model 1 for sure to say I have it, but if it's a good model 2 may mod the second.

The problem with this one is that you are creating a YT-1300 transport that will be able to have Nien Nunb and R2-D2, making it indestructible.

Depends, if Azaamen family is only for scum, problem solved

Utini! it's the Otana!

Salvaged astromechs only for scum only.

Am I the only one who was sad not to see a Vasudra in the GR-75? Special ability: Don't move and suffer 3 damage. Shout: "We're still pumping bacta into your storage tanks!"

Bring on the yt-2000!!

So many YTs :wacko:

I sincerely hope that the number following YT is just the version number, not an implication that there are 2359 other YTs

that'll give me nightmares for life :o

Well a mate just got a 3D printer and this was on the top of my get printed list:

16586510961_20839cf43c_o.jpg

was going to use it as an Outer Rim Smuggler but it'd be cool to have an official one in scum. This thing needs a heap of sanding before I get it painted.

That is sweet Bro, but yeah I am not into these 3D's because like you said... you **** near need to re-sculpt them to get the things clean.

Still it is cool to see your pictures, as usual.

:)

Bring the Punishing One!

Fluff-wise it's a far better candidate for a large turreted scum ship than the YT-2000

I'd guess it would have a similar ability to the Outrider title and a salvaged astro slot
