Squadron Title Cards

By Tailsgod, in X-Wing

Rogue Squadron
Rebel Small Ship Pilot Skill 4+ Only: 6 Points

Every Other Ship with this title gains the pilot ability of the highest pilot skilled pilot

Wraith Squadron

Rebel Small Ship: 4 points

Every Ship with this ability can use the other's target locks

Red Squadron

Rebel Small Ship: 4 points
For every ship destroyed with this title other ships with this title gain one extra focus token when they perform a focus action

Green Squadron

Rebel Small Ship: 2 points
For every ship destroyed with this title other ships with this title gain one extra evade token when they perform a evade action

Gold Squadron

Rebel Small Ship: 4 points
For every other ship with this title in range one you may reroll one dice on a secondary weapon to a max of three


Edit: These are just ideas I have, I would love to hear other people give Squad Ideas. I like the idea of titles giving some symmetry to the squadron

I like this one, I have wanted to see something similiar ever since the brobot appearance. It would need the add on of if the squad leader is destroyed all pilots lose this ability. No idea if this could be be abused but I would like rebel and imperial versions of this.

Yeah that makes sense to add

Also if I had to think of a squadron to title for imperials it would easily be

181st Imperial Fighter Wing

Imperial Small Ship Pilot Skill 4+ Only: 6 Points

I guess I don't really see the point. So many of the generic pilot cards are basically this already.

It would give the generics a top pilot ability. It would greatly increase squad use for swarmy builds. I just don't know if this would play nice with other kids I am not a number cruncher.

Lol Neither am I but what you said is what I'm thinking. It will also force people into thinking in new ways when building squadrons and even might give some older ships new advantages

Imagine a Rogue Squadron with Tycho's abilities or Wedges, might give people a reason to use X's again

Basically what squadron titles would do is just create new types of lists to play with without making them mandatory by having them have an actual point cost

three rogues cost the same as an entire ship at 18 points and restrict upgrades but they also give you some other major advantages

Tycho Jake and A dagger all with this title are dangerous but they can't take the A-wing Test Pilot upgrade which is limiting

basically it just gives more choices

Edit: I personally prefer Corran and Etahn both with PTL, FCS, R2d2/R5P9 and corran with a shield upgrade and both Rogues

or

Wedge and Corran with the Title (Corran built the same way) and Wedge with Predator and R5P9 and a shield upgrade

3 shots and they all have one less defense

Interceptors or TIE/In only PS 4+

So long as Soontir Fel remains Active (alive) all ships with this title may change 1 boom result to a Kaboom result.

X-Wing Title - Rogue Squadron - You may spend target locks from other ships with Rogue Squadron as if the target locks were on this ship.

X-Wing Title - Rogue Squadron - You may spend target locks from other ships with Rogue Squadron as if the target locks were on this ship.

I was just about to suggest this rule for Gamma Squadron. It does strike me as more of a bomber-centric ability.
