What's the deal with the Ghost's Base in the display case?
Avoiding the same issues that the Decimator has had. It is about as long, and appears to have much, much more mass.

My buddy was wondering if it was a place to dock the Phantom... seemed unnecessary, probably just have a token or something to mark it's docked assuming it doesn't just work like the Hound's Tooth + Nashtah Pup.
Really hope the inquisitor's TIE has a copy of the TIE/x1 title. I mean, it probably won't, but it would be nice if it did.

I don't see it being exactly like the Pup since the purpose of the pup was slightly different. I would think the Phantom will require maybe an action or forgone shooting to deploy and you must either discard a crew card or something else to deploy it.
Edited by ScojoWell we know of at least two of the pilots for the Inquisitors TIE, the Inquisitor and Baron Valen Rudor.[/size]
You can probably add the 2 new Inquisitors from season 2 and 2 generic pilots to the mix.
As for the Ghost and Phantom pilot wise? My guess is Hera Syndula (both), Kanan Jarrus (both), Ahsoka Tano (Ghost only), Sabine Wren (Phantom only) and a generic (both). Also the Ghost may be the first non-epic ship in the game that gets multiple attacks from its guns (180 degrees for the front guns and a 360 turret, both 2 die attacks), possibly gaining this via the title card.
"The Mist Hunter ... with room for eight passengers and a metric ton of cargo... was armed with twin assault lasers and a tractor beam projector... There were three prisoner cells, located in the cargo bay." -Wookiepedia
I think every bounty hunter ship on wookiepedia is listed as having a tractor beam.
I think the extra stuff on the Ghost's base is just because it's a prototype and is probably heavier material than production, and so needed a bit more stability.
Perhaps the tractor beam is a cannon slot upgrade

I thought that too, but would you put the little slots for the ID tombstones on a temporary stand?

He's got a point.
Oh yeah I see them now. Then yeah, it's totally just a non-clear version of what it'll actually be on.
And I saw a rear pic of the model on another page/thread, there's a Phantom sculpted into the back.
Much better wave model wise than 7, though I'm surprised to see the Gozanti before the Star Jewel or Action...and I have no idea what hole the Mist Hunter and Inquisition TIE will fill. Still, 'glad' to see I'll be able to light my money on fire for months to come.
I'm guessinng the Inqusitor's TIE will be able to mount the Advanced Targeting Computer as well.

If they give it 3 attack dice without the ATC, it'll be a step up from regular advanced sans title but down from the more modern advanced with the 3rd die a guaranteed crit.
Edited by ViscerothSWGNo one has summarized yet. So:
Inquisitor's Tie- small ship, Empire
2/3/2/2
Boost/Barrel roll/Target Lock/Focus
Pilots are PS 2/4/6/8
PS8 pilot has 2 icons in the upgrade bar. We can safely assume that one is EPT. Other one... missile?
Mist hunter- small ship, Scum
3/1/4/4
TL/Evade/Focus
?/?/6/?
4 icons... unclear
Cloak Token!
Gozanti with 2x Ties - Epic (duh)
5 shields
5 energy tokens
120 degree forward firing arc (ish)
4 special pegs to mount 4 ties to it's belly
The rest is blurred
Punishing One - Large ship, Scum
??????
Ghost- Large w/ rebel Phantom thing- small
??????
Fill in the blanks, people!
The Inquisitor's TIE is a TIE Advanced, right? Probably can take the title.
How annoying would it be if it's just the same ship stats and upgrades with a different model?

Oh, we've got ship stats? I didn't see those images.
Where did you see them?

From camera phone pictures.
And I squinted.... (pun not intended)
Are you saying not online anywhere at this point?

Best I've seen so far. Squint away!
I'm curious whether this ship will come with the XX-23 S-thread tracker missile that it uses in the show, and what it's function would be in the game.
If they give it 3 attack dice without the ATC, it'll be a step up from regular advanced sans title but down from the more modern advanced with the 3rd die a guaranteed crit.
There's no reason it should have 3 attack dice. It only has two standard laser cannons.
Edited by DarthEnderXThe more I look at the ghost the more I think it will be a 1 ship show.
Front and back primary arcs.
Turret as well.
2-3 shots a round with full crew or optional title of some kind.
80-100 point ship.
I predict 10 shields and 10 hull.
Primary attack of 3.
Agility 1
crew 3
Droid - 1
FCS, EPT for named pilots, HLC

For sure not 10 shields 10 hull. I would be just 4 lest hit points than cr90....
But i agree with 2 shots per turn with upgrade of some kind.
80 points with Phantom wouldn't suprise me also.
Much better wave model wise than 7
What?
