"Ace" version for the Tomax:

And will we get a Xamot as well?

I'll say it because no one has already. Let's have the next Imperial Aces box have TWO Defenders...one with a Bloodstripe and one painted Red. The curveball is it packs two titles:

Royal Guard Pilot

Title 1 Points

+2 PS and +1 Sensors Slot

Emperor's Secret Order

Title 2 points

+1 EPT and +1 Sensors Slot

Then use your imagination for the Maarek Stele pilot card. Search your feelings...you want this to happen.

This would be awesome.

I also vote for a Phantom Ace. PS9 without using V.I. (throw outmaneuver on that pilot because the Phantom needs to be broken again...)

Is know the ship in the PC game is OP, but this card is unbalanced.

If you are going to make the Defender OP in the X-Wing Miniatures Game, you should at least pay for it (add great squad cost).

I agree. I just have no idea what it SHOULD cost, so I just put no cost, as Strange Eons wouldn't let me put a "?" in that field.

Not less than 12 points by my estimation, reasonably could be more.

I think it's clear that Defender needs it most, but Bombers are my favorite and I fly them all the time so I want more with Bombers.

Is that just taking into account what's on the card, or does it take into consideration that the Defender is overcosted on it's own?

That takes into account what the Defender costs. AGI 4 is incredibly powerful. You are very close to taking Attack 2 stuff out of the game, and you are hard to hit with 3-dice attacks. Throw in that it's now defending 8 hit points, and it makes for an incredibly durable ship. The Boost action it adds is both good, and allows Autothrusters to be taken, so any remote chance you had of damaging it at Range 3 goes right out the door.

I look at this:

Rexler Brath (37)

Title (12)

HLC (7)

Autothrusters (2)

Lone Wolf (2)

for 60 points and I think it can solo most any turret in the game, is nearly immune to swarms, and hits pretty hard. You know what, though, I'm going to add missiles or another cannon of my choice and take it to around 65. If you're going to point fortress, might as well go all the way. This way Fat Han looses to me if the clock runs out. It also leaves enough points for Soontir Fel, so that's cool. I seriously don't know what kills an AGI4 8 hit point ship. Throw on Lone Wolf and Autothrusters and its invincible.

Perhaps the 4 Agi is too much. Even though the Defender is supposed to be the most maneuverable ship in the Galaxy, given that all other ships in the game break down into just 4 categories so far(Agi 0-4), it's fine as long as it's in the current highest category.

But if they ever DO add a 4 Agi ship to the game, then the Defender should be as well.

So I've been looking into Bombers because they're probably one of my favorite ships in X-Wing and I discovered this guy:

"Deathfire" McDibs

If we don't get a pilot card for a guy name "Deathfire" McDibs I will cry.

"When declaring an attack with a secondary weapon you may perform a free focus action." Or something. I want it.

Cool finding! I will make a card for him. (but the ability looks a bit boring)

Autoblaster/Proton Rockets would make for a Nasty Range one for those trying to dodge the HLC

I want to see the TIE Punisher in an Aces pack. I don't have any idea what new things it should get BUT they better Make a level 9 TIE Punisher Pilot named "Frank the Castle," "The Castle being his call sign, and his ability is to fire every ordnance weapon he has in one turn, Missiles Bombs Torpedoes, everything all fired in one turn. Somewhere in is mini bio on the card it needs to say "Judge Jury and Executioner, Frank Punishes the Rebel Alliance every chance he gets."

How about: when attacking with a secondary weapon, the defender may not spend focus tokens to modify defense dice.

I actually came across "Deathfire" a couple days ago while brainstorming Bomber Aces ideas. My card read a bit like this:

"Deathfire" - TIE Bomber- PS6 - You may perform actions and secondary weapon attacks after maneuvering over or landing on an obstacle.

I also included Shira Brie as a PS8 that could perform a free focus action when using secondary weapons, along with a PS3 Generic named 323 Squadron Pilot and a PS5 Generic named Theta Squadron Pilot.

don't cut yourself

Defender and Bomber for sure! Both need serious help!

It was the "X" that gave it away.

I actually didn't add the X until way later when I tried to sign up for something(I think it was my XBox Live account) and DarthEnder was already taken. And DarthEnder2 seemed lame.

Eventually, I started using the X for everything.

I've been grimmy for over 20 years. Man I'm old.

Also, if Tomax is a pilot what about his twin Xamot? They better be flying Crimson colored bombers!

Oops ninja'd again.
