If there ever is a Scum Epic ship, my money is on the Minstrel Class Star Yacht

It won't be a particularly heavy hitter by all accounts but on the merit that Jabba had one, and he is by a very large margin the most recognisable (and therefore most marketable) character in the entire faction I reckon the odds are strong in this one.

If that is the case, the crew cards are going to be pretty interesting - because lets face it - they're all going to be discard abilities.

So just for shirts and goggles let's think up a few:

Protocol Droid:

At the beginning of the activation phase, all enemy ships must turn their dials face up.

Then get angry and disintegrate this card Then Discard this card

Twilek Dancing Girl

Choose 2 ships within range 1-3 of your ship that have 1 or more stress tokens, you may remove all stress tokens from these ships.

Then drop this card through a trapdoor into the Rancor Pit. Then discard this card

Boba Fett

Choose any enemy ship that has a pilot skill of 9 or greater. You may deal up to 2 Blinded Pilot face up damage cards from your damage deck to that ship, then reshuffle your damage deck.Then clumsily hurl this card into The Pit Of Carkoon. Then discard this card.

Kowakian Lizard Monkey

At the start of the activation phase, select one enemy ship at range 1, and randomly set that ship's maneuver dial. Then cackle uproariously. The discard this card.

You forgot:

Salacious B. Crumb

Unique

When the defender uses an ability that would flip over or discard faceup damage cards that are dealt to them, the attacker may flip the damage card back over and all effects must be resolved. Discard this card after use.

"Salacious B. Crumb, the court jester for the gangster Jabba the Hut, was known for his cruel sense of humor and played malicious practical jokes on the unwitting for the amusement of his master."

What... no Power Droids?!

"Gonk... gonk... gonk!"

I hadn't forgotten - I just couldn't think of a good one - yours and Hawkstrike's are both pretty crazy - and that's just as it should be of course

What... no Power Droids?!

"Gonk... gonk... gonk!"

Quite right

Power Droid - Huge ships only

After completing your maneuver you may assign one energy token to each section of your ship.

Then apply glowing bits of metal to your feet. Then discard this card

Now it is a little Gonking-Hero!

Jabba the Hutt (Unique)

Action: You may take 1 damage on each friendly ship at Range 1 in order to apply the same total damage to enemy ships at range 1-2. Then swallow a couple of frogs. Then discard this card.

Bib Fortuna (Unique)

Action: You may execute any single action in your action bar twice. Then be accused of being a weak-minded fool. Then discard this card.

I'll take two of those Twileks if you don't mind. I have a lot of destressing to do.

They probably aren't in short supply - I suspect Jabba gets through a few each week

How else did the Rancor get to grow so big?

Gran

If you roll three focuses during an attack, immediately convert all three to Crits. Then pass out drunk. Then discard this card.

Jabba the Hutt (Unique)

Action: You may take 1 damage on each friendly ship at Range 1 in order to apply the same total damage to enemy ships at range 1-2. Then swallow a couple of frogs. Then discard this card.

Being serious for a moment, that is actually pretty darned good - exactly the sort of ability you'd give to a lethal and ruthless crimeboss with no regard for the lives of his minions

It would have to be a VERY expensive card, and most likely Huge Ship only - but I can totally see that

How about:

Ubesian Spy

(Unique)

At the start of the Combat Phase choose an enemy ship as the target of this cards effect. Roll one damage die for every crew member on that ship removing that crew card for every [hit/crit] rolled. Discard this card.

"Why? Because he's holding a thermal detonator!"

As a slightly more generic version of that:

Bounty Hunter

LIMITED.

When attacking, if you would deal a face-up damage card, you may instead discard that card to discard one of the defender's [crew] cards.

Jabba the Hutt (Unique)

it would also eat up the attack of that ship. because even if it's expensive you are still most likely instant killing some form of threat and only losing an action to do it.. even if that thing is 20 points for the card. it's still broken

I like the Hutt Card for a well deserved Phantom nerf lol! Well it would be scum only so at least a threat to the throne of the Phantom.

Gran

I love it! I don't think I'd ever use it, but it's really cool. Reminds me of the thermal detonator-lobbing Gran from Dark Forces.

I think it's very appropriate for Scum to have a lot of 'discard when used' crew.

Salacious B. Crumb

Unique

Enemy ships at range 1 - 2 that perform an action receive a stress.

Jabba

Unique

2 crew

When an enemy ship at range 1 - 2 performs an action you may perform a free action even if you have already performed that action this turn.
