Official Gozanti Announcement

By Sithborg, in X-Wing

Looks like the TIEs ARE ESB blue. And comes with a clearer picture to squint at!

THE TIE FIGHTERS ARE BLUE!!!

Yessssss!!!

Been waiting for FFG to finally standardize on one color for the entire Imperial fleet. Now, I can finally fly everything out there without a random mess of colors...(color variation is for Rebel scum!)

Kallus is a permanent grudge, love it.

Another chance to say I told you so to the posters who flamed my ideas on deployment rules last year. I am super excited for this.

Looks like we get 4 new TIEs including Scourge. I'm sold on that alone.

Kallus is a great counter to fat builds/2-ship tourney builds. Put him on your big ship, pick their big ship. Decimator with him on it and Scourge as one of the escorts? Better start running Falcon/Outrider...

Kallus is a permanent grudge, love it.

Looks to me like he works for all your ships..... or am I reading it wrong?

seems that way. just only in reference to the one 'assigned' ship.

"You" refers to the ship he is on. So, you are incorrect.

"You" is generally ruled to mean the particular ship the upgrade is on, no?

Interesting - they confirm that the Gozanti is a 1/270 design. IE., first 'huge' ship at the game's standard 'starfighter' scale.

Which, well...had been widely predicted...

So Kallus is another kick in the teeth against the 2 ship meta. I'm so happy

Yes.

Is it me or is Kallus like REALLY good for 2 points?

Edit: nevermind, YOU =\= player

Still pretty solid.

Right on, just checking.

If this will be 2 epic points then I will just have to get 2.

'Scourge' will be fun to fly alongside anyone with an Adv Homing Missile. Shields fully up...here's a crit. Oh, Scourge gets +1 against you from now on. LOL...

I can see Scourge being efficient at chewing up large, heavily shielded ships if you use an Advanced Homing Missile on them first ;)

Edit: Dammit, sniped >.<

Can't wait to go up against a Rebel convoy with that baby.

proton bombs.

nuff said.

You’ll find the Gozanti’s ship card , as well as ten TIE fighter ship cards, including four new unique Imperial aces.

Ummmmm....huh? Presuming 4 new Imperial Aces calls for four new ship-base-tiles, that *should* only need 8 pilots/pilot cards, total (4 aces with a generic on each back).

But...10?

Are we getting a new generic TIE Fighter pilot??

2 each of Academy, Obsidian and Black pilots I'm assuming.

I wouldn't mind seeing 6 of a new Generic. just throwing that out there. Neko is probably right though.

If you look at the fan, it is indeed pairs of Academy, Obsidian, and Black Squadron pilot.
