Wave 3 updates!!!

By tomkat364, in Star Wars: Imperial Assault

Is that a Slippery Target on the pic of the Hired Guns?

Yes. The storm trooper pack also has the reinforcement command card shown.

As a side note has anyone noticed that the article is slightly different now, having faction colored borders around the images. Either I didn't notice that or they did something to it. So that is something.

https://www.fantasyflightgames.com/en/news/2015/4/21/reinforcements-incoming/

The most pertinent change is better quality images:

I can now read the following:

Wookiee Warriors

8pts - 2 in the group

Brawler - Wookiee

Surge: +1 damage

Surge: Bleed

Surge: Cleave 2

Fury : While attacking, if you have suffered 5(?) or more damage, apply +1 surge to the attack results.

11 health, 4 speed, 1 black defense dice, Red+Green attack

Wild Fury - Command Card

2 points - limit: 1

Creature or Wookiee

Use during your activation. You become focused and may perform multiple attacks during this activation. At the end of your activation you become Stunned and Bleeding

Hired Guns

4 points - 2 in group

Smuggler

Surge: +1 damage

Surge: Pierce 1

Surge: +1 Accuracy

Parting Shot: when you have suffered damage equal to your health, before you are defeated, you may interrupt to perform an attack

( Something:) While defending, apply + 1 (or is it even -1) evades to your defense results

3 health, 5 speed, white defense, green + yellow attack

(Something) Importance - Command Card

0 points, limit 1

Use after the last figure in one of your (non-something?) groups is defeated. That group's deployment card is worth 3 fewer VPs, to a minimum of 0.

Stormtroopers

Set for Stun - Command Card

0 points, limit 1

Any figure

Special Action: Perform an attack. If the target would suffer 1 or more damage (reduce the damage to 0?) then the target becomes Stunned.

Ooh, I was already looking forward to hired guns, now I am even more! Parting Shot sounds cool, and that card for reducing a groups VPs.

The Hired Guns' special rule's name might be "Dispensable", which makes a -1 likely ...

The Hired Guns' Command Card's name is "Of No Importance": Use after the last figure in one of your non-unique groups is defeated. That group's deployment card is worth 3 fewer VPs, to a minimum of 0.

Is that a Slippery Target on the pic of the Hired Guns?

Yes. The storm trooper pack also has the reinforcement command card shown.

I guess, that this fact won't allow more copies of those cards in my deck?

Doubt so. Maybe we get grenadier in another pack and then an imp player would not need to buy the rebel troopers

When do you think they'll arrive?

When do you think they'll arrive?

about a month after they were initially supposed to arrive.

Why does the upcoming page say that wave three was last updated 9/22? What was the update?

My hope is that all this stuff will arrive before Christmas.

I think wave 3 might make it into 2015, but Return to Hoth is February at the earliest.
