Speculation on the Advance Homing Missile?

By devotedknight, in X-Wing

Id go with defender cannot reroll or modify defense die

It's too late to speculate. People at GenCon have already bought and opened the ships.

Adv. Homing Missiles (3)

ATT3, Range 2

Attack [Target Lock]:

Discard this card to

perform this attack.

If this attack hits, deal

1 faceup Damage card to

the defender. Then cancel

all dice results.

Dang...i am not inpressed by that at all...and seems funny as an 'advanced' muntions

Let's see; Rhymer, crack shot and advanced homing missiles; bye corran...

Can you post crackshot text?

Crack Shot (1)

When attacking a ship inside

your firing arc, you may

discard this card to cancel

1 of the defender’s <evade> results.

:)

It is essentially a 3 pt proton bomb

It's not even close to pbomb

The mechanics are wildly different (eats your attack, your action, requires arc, requires roll, FAR greater range, one target, no friendly fire)

Given the many ways this thing could be an utter waste of 3 points (no arc, bad roll,Green dice, bad crit, not fighting es or bs etc) you're going to need protective redundancy.

Howuch?

5 prototype As or 5 talas + 1 blount oughta do it
