There should be a cougar, they should be a really, really powerful pilot card, then the forum could all be complaining about cougar swarms, and have specific cougar hunting lists.
problem is that "Cougar" already exists, in spirit, through the Predator EPT
guys your all missing the fact that although difficult without comboing,
Wampa can kill Corran in one shot or two shots depending on how they rule cancelling crits.

two shots
there's no ruling necessary,
Simply put, they had to have written "1 face-down damage per crit canceled" if they wanted WAMPA doing more than one guaranteed damage per canceled attack
as is, "a critical result" just means
if at least one crit, one face-down damage
or, as correctly written in the article (for once),
"if you cancel at least one 
with "Wampa," you're going to deal a damage,"
Considering how "meh" the action header EPTs are right now, I'm not certain he would be overpowered. You could just focus him down in the first exchange and boom, synergy all gone.You wish Youngster was crazy overpowered?
And with that in mind, I'm pretty sure Youngster is the big loser of the bunch, and I'm not sure I see any of these Tie pilots seeing any more play competitively than the other Unique Ties not named Howlrunner.
And here is why-
Synergy lists are NOT top level competitive in this game. Anytime a preview says "You can do this if you have this guy, this guy AND this guy all still alive!", I instantly get a little worried about the viability of the pilots. Yes, Howlrunner works, but that is because her ability is the very best synergy ability in the game. She fits in lists with LOTS of ships, she is the ONLY unique ship required for the synergy to occur, she doesn't cost much, and she has a 2nd hidden ability which reads "I am the Imperial Biggs when flying in a swarm".
Hoelie focussed down and goes down in flames: 18 pts for an Imp Biggs. Youngster goes down in flames: 17-18 pts Imp Biggs.
I going to ruin Youngster for all of you. When you fly him think about a young kid flying a tie yelling "now this is pod racing"

Darth Vader in his youth ... you really can't ruin him that way ..

I was just going to call him "youngling" in all cases and do a really awful Obi-Wan impression when he dies.
Two ways Youngster's name fits with the ability:
1) It's a joke, and Youngster is a super good pilot.
2) Youngster really is a kid who snuck into a TIE cockpit (even though his mother told him not to), and his ability is him asking the other pilots what his equipped upgrade card is. Them performing the action is them demonstrating how to do it for the 'Youngster'.

What a lame and anticlimatic way to go, even by the low standards of TIE pilots.
What kinda action header episode we want to see?
Copy Cat, 2pts- Action: once per round, when a ship at range 1 gains a token, you may gain that token as well.
Recalibration, (1pt?-2pts?)- Action: choose 1 range band, when attacking or defending, you may reroll 1 attack and 1 defense dice for attacks at that range. . You gain no bonus dice at range 1 to attack or range 3 for defense.
Tie Droid Brain, tie fighter (FO too?) only. 1pt- Action: when you perform a BR you may acquire a TL on an enemy ship at range 1.
Edited by Rakky WistolI like the Wampa/Scourge/Colzet combo.
Too many moving parts for it to be Comptetitive, but looks like so much fun to fly.
Do note that Wampa is FINE without support
.
He has the same cost and skill as a black squad; no ept

You want to give Isaard a ship?
Youngster!?!? Whaaaaat?
That's all I have to say.
At least it is better than Black Ace or Obsidian Leader!
