Seeing the new TIE/ fo is out, I'm thinking people will be seeing a resurgence of the swarm. Personally I wouldn't be surprised to see this in the next few months:
But one of the TIEs will be randomly white...
But one of the TIEs will be randomly white...
The shield energy output needs more efficient heat radiation from the s-foils so ... white.
But one of the TIEs will be randomly white...
Repaint it.
I'm either going to repaint my FO TIEs in standard imperial gray, or I'm going to repaint all my other TIEs in FO colors...
Edited by DarthEnderXMight as well just stick an old TIE on the peg if you're doing that.

Are they actually different models? If they aren't then you could take an old one if you wanted. OR take 7 new ones (which is my preference cos they look way cooler)

Might not be tournament legal since the models are technically different.

They are. The differences are subtle, but they're there.

The colour matters not as long as they're uniform.

Am I the only one who thinks the wash on the new TIEs is severely lacking in that photo?

Nope. It doesn't look like there's any shading on that new TIE at all.
Edited by DarthEnderXI hope that one's a defect, or at least that the batch later this month'll look less like toys and more like miniatures.
Well that's a record for derailment.
@OP Your list is a good list I like your list. The new Tie "named" pilots are nice additions to the swarm IMO, the s-loop is wasted but their cost is reasonable for the extra HP too especially as it's not uncommon to give howl more HP.
Opens up some nice options and having a different looking "leader" would be sweet.
Bbbbut Howlrunner's the leader...
He's called epsilon leader. Literally leader is in his name, it's not even abbreviaded to ldr. or anything.
nevermind can't read
Edited by ficklegreendiceHe's called epsilon leader. Literally leader is in his name, it's not even abbreviaded to ldr. or anything.
Yeah, but he's the leader of Epsilons. And there are no Epsilons in that squadron. So he's not their leader.
Edited by DarthEnderXI'm thinking of a list that's probably far worse.
Howl with PTL
Epsilon Leader
Mauler with PTL
2x Black Squads with PTL
The core idea being able to PTL every turn regardless of maneuver (except when k-turn, of course) and have focus + Evade + Howl reroll.

As we have all been recently schooled in this subject you should know that 5 ties aren't a swarm. Nice list though.

this is correct
E.L is the scheming vizier behind Howlrunner's sultan

Drop mauler and put PTL on Epsilon. Says every friendly ship in range 1, that includes him.
Edit: Or I can read and realize he doesnt have an Elite.

Yeah, it's actually a reason I'm kind of iffy on him altogether. He drops and the rest falls apart a bit.
Looked at the list again, I can put hull upgrade on him and Howl.
Maybe it will get more interesting with the TIEs coming with the Gozanti as well.
Given Epsilon has a TIE interceptor level dial they might make good support for TIE interceptors.

I do like this squad's resistance to Predator though. But I doubt 5 TIEs can get the job done.
