Well ok, It's actually quite good on the T-70 and it's T-rolls. But most of us were hoping for a Droid to whack on the T-65 to help it a bit.

Eh.

So, I guess there's a new article.

DAMMIT! I squandered my chance to make the 'new article' thread. Now someone else is going to steal the hard earned likes from MY F5 finger!

Targeting Astromech:

I dunno, that's not bad. Do a K-turn, get a target lock.

It's not bad on a Y-wing...

Um... ya, that's not shabby at all.

Dutch likes it, that's for sure.

Or at T-roll in a T-70, or a 3 hard/4 straight in a y-wing.

Those new ties are pretty interesting though. Ps12 maneuvers from a ship with that dial is not nothing.

It doesn't look like it's for X-Wing but seriously? Is it really that bad????

It's a free Target Lock while stressed. A B-Wing, Y-Wing and X-Wing can all target lock after a K-Turn.

2 points tho.

It's ok I guess, but it's no K4.

The B-wing can't. It's actually better on the Y-wing than the X-wing, as there are more maneuvers that trigger the ability.

It would fit with what I feel Tractor Beam will do. .

Not for two points and not as competition for the valuable astromech slot. Nope, it's total crap.

This is not the (additional) X-Wing fix we were looking for. : )

Not a B-wing buddy. Nice try

B-wing has not slot

EDIT: Ha less than a minute and 3 of us are on that ****

Might find a home on Y-wings but a point too expensive and too situational to be worth much on T-65. Color me disappointed.

(Why doesn't spell-check know the word situational?)

T-rolling AND hating. It has potential.

Indeed. Most interesting development in my opinion. Obviously no ept but perhaps decoy will find a home in a list with him

So far as a portion of fixing munitions? Pbbbt. Swing and a miss. All riding on the guidance chimp i guess.

Eh.

I must be missing something. X-Wings and BTL-A4 Y-Wings k-turn to stay in fights, this astro means you aren't totally losing your action for doing so. Also, Integrated Astromech is auto include to make it an effectively 3S3H X-wing that gets free Target Locks on it's (frequent) K-turns.

I don't understand why it would be considered bad at all.

The X-Wing buff isn't even released yet and it's not good enough?

Not everyone is looking for an 'additional X-Wing fix'. Alex Davies said he felt the Integrated Astromech, in his opinion, is a sleeper.

It really is more than enough to get them where they need to be. Everyone who is crying for another fix just think Integrated Astro is just too stale.

Cos It's two points, takes up your Astromech slot, and for the T-65, only activates on a single maneuver, and one that is fairly easy to predict and block.

The K4 droid activates on more maneuvers, can be used multiple turns in a row and only costs one more point.

+1 this ^ I think the Integrated Astromech will be a common include.
