New Bomber Pilot Toman Bren is SICK!

By iblamedice, in X-Wing

Put Adrenaline Rush on Tomax, and he becomes a TIE Bomber with a white K-Turn. Probably not worth it, but the concept amuses me!

I'm planning him with...

Lightning Reflexes

Tie Shuttle

Tie MK2

Mara Jade

Tactician

A white K is nice, but how about a 1/2/3/4/5 k turn? Or a 1/2/3 S-Loop, or a 3 inverted hard turn? And since the stress gets added in the check stress step, you still get an action!

Reflexes makes him fantastically positionable to either deliver munitions, or as I have him planned as a disruptive annoyer. I happen to be running Soontir and Vader as his wingmen.

What is the Bomber's biggest weakness?

The red Hard turn 2, now which "discard" EPT lets you ignore that?

Exactly.

Determination!... ? Only joking of course. That was my first thought as well but honestly it still comes back to crackshot for me.

Bren with homing missiles and crackshot hits about as hard as PtL rhymer with APTs. For cheaper. And longer range. Then consider crackshot still holds value after his munitions are spent.. assuming he's not a space hulk by then.

But where is Xamot?

Coooobrraaaaaa!!!

him and crackshot? it's just too obvious.

still.. him, whisper and something..?

it will be a joy to fly the phantom in relax-o-style (yes, with a comfy-chair), as everybody wants to bring down that bomber on the other side of the table.. :wub:

and if they ignore him.. all the better :P
