You can zoom in to see this text:

Combat Phase: The agility value of that ship is reduced by 1 for each tractor beam token assigned to it.

End Phase: Remove all tractor beam tokens from the ship.

Huge ships should have Heavy Tractor Beams that throw 2 or 3 tokens on a ship.

This could be .... interesting. Time to start building some Scyk squads!

It looks like there's still some text left on the card, so hopefully there's more to it. Otherwise, why would you take it on a low-PS ship?

Definitely works well with the TIE/D title to reduce agility before the primary attack. Not sure if it's worth it as your only attack, though. I could see it being good in epic with huge swarms, where even after you spend a couple ships' attacks reducing agility, you still have enough other ships left to benefit from it.

Wedge approves of this.

Keep in mind, it is a 3 dice attack that has to HIT before it has an effect.

I zoomed in using my Auto-cad tool at work:

After reading the article I have fixed it.

OP is correct. Your agility drops by 1 for each token.

Tie Shuttle: Title Bomber Only, 0 points

Your upgrade bar loses a Missile, Torpedo, and Bomb Upgrade icons and gains 2 crew icons. You cannot equip a crew upgrade card that is more than 4 squad points.

Long Range Scanners: Modification 0 pts

You can acquire target locks at range 3 and beyond. You cannot acquire target locks at range 1-2. You can equip card only if you a missile and torpedo in your upgrade bar.

Tie Bomber: Tomax Bren

Once per round after you discard an EPT upgrade card, flip that card face up.

Also the 7 Tie Defender is Maarek Stele Unique. This is the first time we have a named pilot in the same faction. I guess they will FAQ the other maarek too. Looks like the same ability too

Title: TIE/X7: Tie Defender Only: -2 points

Your upgrade bar loses it cannon and missile upgrade icon. After executing a 3,4,5 maneuver gain 1 Evade token.

Very interesting!!!

I want this bad

Not sold outside of its use with the Defender title. But, for a second there, I thought it was ABSURD on IG-88B, but then I realized, if the tractor beam hit, I wouldn't have a second shot anyways.... lol.

If only Lt. Blount could take it...

This is the first time we have a named pilot in the same faction.

Hera is a pilot for both the Ghost and the Phantom.

If you look close the 2nd modification card, states Once per turn when you attack using a secondary weapon with a 3 or less attack you may attack with your primary weapon after this attack.

So yep fire your tractor and lower that agility then attack again with your main guns! party!!!

Just like the video game, Ion and Fire same turn!

True! Didn't realize this. Thanks,

Well holy Force those ships can now do stuff... Defender scares me officially now as does my buddies five bomber Swarm. Can't imagine why.

Tractor Beam Token
Reference Card

A ship with at least one tractor beam token
assigned to it follows special rules during
these phases:

Combat Phase: The agility value
of that ship is reduced by 1 for each
tractor beam token, to a minimum of 0.

End Phase: Remove all tractor beam tokens
from the ship.

So basically, it's theoretically possible to field four Tractor Beam equipped ships, reduce a cloaked Phantom's agility to 0, then one-shot it with a fifth ship. Right??? Wishful thinking??

Or maybe the agility value of a cloaked Phantom simply goes from 2 to 0, and it still gets its 2-green-dice cloak bonus.

Hmm.

Still ..... I foresee shenanigans!

Fixed that for ya.

Calling it now, Rebel veterans Y-wing and E-wing. Open to debate over E-wing or Z-95.

Cloak tokens increase agility, it's not like being at range 3 or being obstructed.

So the current wording could theoretically neuter a phantom

Oh my. Those Tie Defender titles. These are the Tie Defender fixes we have wanted very badly. 3, 4, or 5 speed maneuver gains a free focus token and it's -2 points. I may start playing imps!

I was hoping that "Tractor beam" would have nullified your movement for one round.

Rebel Veterans would likely see X-Wing and E-Wing I think. Z-95's and Y-wings are used consistently. The two ships on the rebel side that need the most love are the X-Wing and the E-Wing. They've made a terrific precedent with this pack. Looking forward to seeing what they do with the X-Wing!

Tomax is continuous Crackshot. I like it!

Tomax is continuous Crackshot. I like it!

Xamot is continuous Tohskcarc!

Can't wait for him to go head to head with Cobraaaaa!!!!

Not sure where you see this?

Check my thread above I viewed all the cards us Cad. I don't see this one at all.

Unless your guessing the PS 5 defender has it.

Nevermind

Look in the article.
