The FAQ doesn't need to address it, xanderf. We already covered in considerable detail why you can't pair TIE Shuttle with LRS. If you still don't get it than I don't know how we can make it any clearer to you.

We understand the concept perfectly well. But no, you cannot equip an upgrade that has requirements, and then equip an upgrade that explicitly takes away those requirements. As I said before, there are no stages or "legality checks" in list building. The only steps are "working on it" and "done," and only whne I say my list is done do we check to see if it is legal.

do. not. feed.

I'm looking forward to Lieutenant Colzet flying around the board at extreme range flipping cards thanks to the long-range scanners.

he can't

Jendon wants a word.

Colzet and Jendon turtled up in a corner dishing damage from the first turn. But then, with the shuttle title they can do that anyway.

The Shuttle title is the only way they can do that, as neither can take Long Range Scanners.

Whoops. It says "and", wheras i thought it said "or"

Hey, Hey guys.

You can use Long Range scanners on a Firespray with Slave 1. Krassis could now throw a TL at first turn and use it once they get in range with 1 reroll. Not the best, but not the worst.

It's free, so it doesn't have to be that good.

I especially love tractor beam on things like a fat han. knocking the agi to 0 means 3PO just stops being useful.

Bonus points for being thematic!

If we wanted to be thematic, 3PO wouldn't be useful in the first place.

Who else is going to talk to the hyperdriver?!

Can this be real? Can this be real? Can this be real?

Haven't read a single post in this topic - I just saw the news!

An Imperial Veterans Pack ... EXCELLENT!

8 Defender Epic. Discuss.

It won't suck... dats for **** sures!

DAT... also.

There's a red interceptor tailing that Camel...

My wingman likes running red everything

With the release of the Gozanti, the only TIE I can't get in bluish grey atm is the upcoming TAP.

Edit: Oh, and the TIE/fo...

That must be challenging for him given that only 1(now 2) ships come in red.

3 Red interceptors is his thing. Also, as an ex-current 40k player. He paints.

Finally read all the 21 pages.

Took me three days.

This is such a huge benefit to the imperial fleet. The number of ships disparity wasn't ever an issue, the issue was that there were 2 ships in the fleet that were not competitively viable: Defender and bomber. This pack fixes that and ALMOST adds a new ship in the the "tie Shuttle" title. Once we get another title for the "Avenger" I'll actually not feel like the empire is 2 ships behind.

nonononono...no.

the tie/av NEEDS a model of its own. at least I NEED IT.

it's a thing of beauty and easily the most elegant tie-design to ever grace my computer back then. even ditched the defender everywhere I could for it. stats are not everything^^

but seriously: much more than any TAP or other shenanigans this is what a lot of people crave for, and FFG will deliver (sooner or later), no doubt.

it's simply a too nice design to ignore

i think this pack missed an opportunity to fix one of the most overcosted named pilots in the game, Rhymer. as i see it nothing was done that would help this 3-4 point overcosted pilot, so really the box helps generic bombers,and Defenders but no Rhymer help.

Well, we don't know yet what the Systems Officer does. Though I doubt it will benefit Rhymer much.

With Tomax we've got a better pilot skill, better ability and cheaper cost. I think that says enough about Rhymer.

I think we will see a FAQ lowering 2 or 3 points the cost of Rhymer. It has no sense that Tomax with a better ability and initiative 8, costs 2 points less than Rhymer with initiative 7.

How would that be an FAQ? An errata, maybe, but highly unlikely.

Rhymer costing 23 points would be awesome actually.

He is the only pilot who is absolutely out of the row cost-wise.

Obviously this would be worth an errata.

Sorry about Necroing the thread. I am drooling already and will get it; not too interested in the striped bomber, would like to trade it away for the red Defender. Since my fleet is now mostly Defenders and really not enough ships, there's never "too much" Defenders.

Sorry about the Necro, I had been so busy that I just found out about this.

Sorry about Necro, making the dead come back to life, just for it to die again.

Hello again. How's Canada. =)

You're forgiven for necromancy.

It seems most people are not that big on the Bombers. Even with their new paintjob. Do you all think its an underwhelming paintjob? My problem is I've got 5 already.

Thank you Blail, hope everything is fine with you

The bombers do have a really good paint job, it's just it'll be collecting dust with me and I would definitely trade it to someone who can make a good use out of it.

With the Bombers, I just never played them and wasn't really interested in playing bombs and I don't use much missiles. I purchased the Punisher just for the Twin Ion Engine modification (for my Defenders). However, I haven't really been playing much, just collecting now; the player base in Canada is a lot smaller.

TIE bombers have been my favorite Imperial ships for a while, dating back to the TIE fighter sim days. (Don't tell GUNBOAT, she gets jealous). The Defender of course I've also loved since its intro in that game. I'm super pumped for this set and I want it YESTERDAY! It's great to see bombers get so much love, all the new munitions in the last wave plus chimps and such in wave 8 and now new pilots! EPT generics! New paint job! RED DEFENDERS! TIE shuttle for cheapest IMP crew ship! And it's definately better than Reb/scum HWKs! This set is one of the things that's been requested for a long time, the others being an X-wing fix and of course GUN. FFG does listen!

YAY! (I'm excited. Just a little)
