Take vessery Juno and maarek, have vessery shoot first removing agility then have the advanced pile on crits.

You do realize that you don't need to make all your shots tractor beams. Just make the first one and all the followup shots still benefit greatly.

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??

If you could have hit a Phantom with four tractor beams to reduce its agility to 0, you could instead have hit it with four actual attacks and already destroyed it.

This man is a thinker!I want you on my team forever.

Should I dig back a couple pages and pat myself on the back for guessing that the Tractor Beam cannon would reduce agility? Naw. I think I'll just revel in the fact that it can go so beautifully with the TIE/D title. Can. Not. Wait.

Tipperary already saved you from breaking your arm trying to pat your back.

Balance isn't the only consideration, especially for casual players. We have a quite a few x-wing pilots, but only 4 y-wing pilots, despite the y-wing being one of the first ships released. The y-wing is the only OT ship that hasn't got any updated pilots (unless you count S&V).

I'd like to see a veteran pack include the Y wing.

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!

Tractor beam literally more effective against heavy, low-agility ships than small, agile ships, so far.

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

Pretty sure it's going to be X-Wing plus either E-Wing or Y-Wing.

Remember? We still need a real fix for the T-65 XD

Unless you stack 2 or 3 tokens on someone, if let's say you have a few Scyks with Tractors, or 3 Defenders. But for that to happen you first have to hit him with the first shot. That is the important part, and where you are completely right!

Otherwise i would be really concerned about Soontir now!

Is the meta still being annoyed at C3PO btw? A tractor beam seems like a good way to neuter him

Yet '0' agility value ships, like Ghost, are literally immune to Tractor beams.

There appears to be more text on the card. There could very well be an auxiliary effect if a ship with no remaining agility has TB tokens.

I think the Ewing is a gimme no matter what because it looks like they really want to fix broken ships with this pack. Now I agree that the Xwing needs some love and the Ywing needs some pilots, so why can't we have both? They may introduce an astro that is designed for the Xwing but happens to be in the this pack, or even go ballsy and have a 3 ship pack with x wings, y wings, and an Ewing like with S&V. My primary bet is still going to be an Xwing/Ewing with Corran Horn's green xwing to add a little flavor. While more Ywing pilots would be nice, the game is called XWING for a reason =P

edit: I forgot to point out that having cross ship pilots is a good thing, because it can prevent some nonsense with having similar ability pilots being crammed in, like having 2 Corran horn type ships in one list. Now we can have Xwing Tycho, Xwing Corran, and maybe evne Ewing Wedge

Also, even though the tractor camels all dice to dal no damage, if you can hit soontir with it, it will pop stealth device. So jan Ors and crack shot says, yo, soontir, lose two agility.

It's also good from a future line perspective. Eventually there will be a limit to the ship models, even with all the EU and new EU (and possibly even breaking into Republic/Old Republic and other shenanigans).

Having cross-over pilots allows FFG to breathe new life into the game without needing to find new ships all the time.

I think the tractor beam might find a niche pushing through damage against agility 2 ships with good hull/shields. Hit with the tractor beam and the target's defence has halved. Now focus your cheap and plentiful 2 dice attacks and boom!

It'll be the death of Y-Wings.

I hope we find out what the Dual Upgrades reference card entails soon.

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.

Title: TIE/D: Tie Defender Only. 0 pts.

Once per round after perform a cannon attack secondary weapon that costs 3 or fewer squad points. You may perform a primary weapon 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! Fun thing is I have been suggesting this for months now as have others. FFG listens!

Very interesting!!!

I want this bad

Why does Maarek need something in the FAQ?

Hey...

What about Dash with Tractor Beam..?

I'd love to see it in a "worst list" competition.
