hey guys,

so the Imp Vets have given us a lot of much needed defender love, but I for one am a bit more excited for this new (and finally appropriately price) bomber ace

Toman...Tomam? w.e Bren's ability allows him to, once per round, reacquire his one-shot ept

now I know there's plenty of one-shot epts ready to be tried, but we're going to ignore them for this thread

this is all about the crack, and getting through those pesky green dice

At 24 points, Bren is at least fairly priced, but with the bomber's frame there will be some issues concerning durability.

For example, consider the following:

Homing Missiles - remove the range 3 bonus and any potential evade

Crackshot - combined with "no evade" essentially dumps the target's agility down by 1 in what is a better version of Wedge's ability

with TL (provided possibly by Long Range Scanners) and focus, you have a very high chance of rolling 4 hits. With Homing + Crackshot, that's a minimum of two damage against the likes of Soontir

Against TLTs, which literally can't cancel any damage against that set-up, it'll straight-up rip the shields off a K or eat into a Y

the problem? 32 points total.

It's not such an issue given that it's quite cheap for what you pay for an ace and you can still outfit quite a list around him, such as triple Juke + Relay Omegas or some variant of Palp Shuttle, but it is when considering that he's just a bomber

so I'll field it to the forums. Would you feel comfortable flying a 32 point bomber, or is the crack missile a task better left to the Gamma Squadron Pilot?

Yes, only because I can keep the target lock after firing if I don't need to re-roll anything.

And Corran is squishy when he only has 2 green dice and no evades.

I don't like how it kills my Jan+C3PO build on the falcon, or my kyle+lando+EI build.

should rip off all of Poe's shields, too!

the return fire's gonna suck, though

Tomax.

As in "discard talents to the max."

I like Adenaline rush more because I think something funny might happen

Deathsticks? More like kek sticks, right?

He also doesn't stop being useful after his loadout is unloaded (likely dead though).

Still, every time I here Bren Gun/Bren Mobile I keep seeing:

that's only if you give him Tie shuttle

I got Tactition and Mara, and white Sloops. All of them.

Use lightning reflexes twice to make the ultimate double-k turn.

I'd run it.

32 pts of awesome is awesome. Fragile frame? Yah, but oh so effective.

Fits nicely next to a classic swarm, if that's your thing: Howl + Swarm Tactics, 4 x Academies.

There are probably a lot of other great slots it fits into as well.
