Imagine they made a new torpedo that fired 3 or even 4 times, similar to cluster missile, but only rolled 2 attack dice. Imagine further that it had some drawback like on these attacks you could not spend focus tokens.

My reasoning is that accuracy corrector would be really nice on something like this. So would marksmanship. So would FCS. It might be more of a reason for B-Wings to take torpedoes.

How broken would that be?

^...meh.

Yeah... no i'd rather not have that.

Ruthless Bomber.

with 4 attacks

in a row

DERP

Bonus if you shout DAKKADAKKADAKKADAKKADAKKA while firing this.

please, change the title..

reads click-bait-ish..

I don't think it is intentional, nor are we starving on news ATM, but still..

Can't change titles once they are made.

Neat idea but I think it gets broken pretty quick. Decimator and ghost melt in a single turn to 3 blue squadrons, hilariously doesn't trigger reinforced deflectors.

Advanced Cluster Missiles could be a nice idea - the thing you need to figure out is 'how they're worse' as well as 'how they're better'; both the 'Advanced' weapons are notable for being massively more fiddly to use than the regular version, making them better suited for use by aces.

Suppose it is 3 attacks for just 1 die each then. And it could cost only 1 point? It's worse because you aren't likely to hit.... but it's better because of the cost and synergy with effects that apply to "every" attack, like marksmanship and FCS. But in this case accuracy corrector would break it.

I suppose you'd have to make it a missile in that case, because B-Wings could double-up on it if it were a torpedo. A TIE Advanced could equip it, but it would only be one shot, and in order to use accuracy corrector they'd have to sacrifice ATC, so they wouldn't be as deadly after they've fired the shot.

It would have to cost more. Multiple attacks with tactician make it powerful.

It would be interesting if the attack value depended on the agility of the defender. Roll one more attack dice then the defenders agility. High value vs high agility targets low value vs low agility.
