I actually really like the design of the troop transport.

Which is why i asked will it have a valid function at the start

Same as the Lambda & DX-9 (which I use as a lambda).

Give it a weaker version of co-ordinate maybe.

Oh. Boarding parties? Yea!

Think of it like a crew:

"Boarding Party"

ACTION:

"Choose one enemy ship you in range 1 of and Board. One crew or Team of the targeting ship is disabled for this round. At the end of the round roll one (red dice) on a Hit/Crit, discard the disabled crew. On a focus, crew stays disabled. On a blank, discard this card."

I have no problem with having this ship in x-wing. It appears to have a turret, and give it a couple crew slots.

To make it valid for epic, why give the ship a team upgrade slot, then include a new team upgrade:

Boarding Party

6 points

When a huge ship touches your base, you are not destroyed.

When touching or being touched by a huge ship you may discard this card to roll an attack die. On a crit you may choose an enemy crew or team slot card, that card is discarded.

Doing it as a crew team upgrade means that it has utility for huge ships that collide. Only viable for epic play, without inventing a new epic action for boarding.

I prefer the new V-wing shuttle. The Higgins boat will be great for an air-ground assault game (or maybe boarding parties for Armada?) but I suspect it might be a little boring for X-wing.

Or maybe ... successful boarding action means the ship switches sides? Take that, Decimator!

LOOK OUT

ITS KYLO REN

Did you say ... KYLO REN?

He’s Kylo Ren!

He’s PS ten

Yet he can’t find

The rebel den.

Bad Kylo Ren!

He turns and then

Goes flying past

O’er hill and fen.

O Kylo Ren!

With Force’s ken

He turns to look

Down in the glen.

It’s Kylo Ren!

Now this is when

Rey learns to use

Her wizard’s zen.

Poor Kylo Ren!

Caught in a pen

And vaporized

By X-wing men.
