Moar t-70 upgrades plz ( excerpt from visual dictionary)

By TylerTT, in X-Wing

So on page 60 of the visual dictionary it says the t-70 can have its torpedoe slot removed and replaced with other secondary weapons.

It also says poe's x wing is modified.

So will we see a third product with a t-70?

I think it would really help Bring variety to the resistance faction.

So could the T-65.

We will almost certainly see that black and orange X-Wing. The goodies that come with it??? We shall see!

As far as we know, Poe's black X-wing is a one-of-a-kind. And from what we see in the film, is really no different than a regular T-70.

No, I've seen the book. The book simply says that all T-70s have a modular weapons bay that can be swapped to carry torpedoes or extra cannons.

In the early part of the film, Poe has a blue/white T-70 with what appears to be a remote turreted blaster (or laser).

The phrase used was "customised" (TFA Incredible Cross Sections) but we don't know to what degree- might be something very minor.

Page 12: "The T-70 X-wing is a favourite craft of Resistance pilots, including Poe Dameron, who flies a customised example codenamed Black One."

Yeah, the paint job. :P

I feel like somebody just doesn't want Poe to be any more awesome. :P

Fair enough.

Yes! I want my autoblaster tech upgrade!

Poe is a naughty boy:

We will more than likely see the new paint job and any new upgrades once they feel the ship needs a fix or to give it more options in an aces/veterans pack.

To be honest, putting a 'pop-down' turret in a tech slot might be interesting.

It might be a way to do the special forces TIE if you wanted to make it a title rather than a whole 'nother ship.

Given the t-65 could also do this it's possible they include these upgrades in a t-65 based product

Torpedo upgrade that gives cannon slot, gotcha.

Poe's X-wing is customized like Vader's x1. Your guess is as good as any.

I wish people would stop calling Poe's Black One x-wing a t-85, its all over the forums and it's wrong.

Oh and the drop down belly gun (possibly a surface defeanse cannon) is probably not a standard Loadout for the T-70. Illicit, maybe, the Resistence might be chummy with a lot of scummy.

Tech for illict? Dead man FOs yeah!

Don't know about the rest of you, but I already have a black & orange T-70 for my X-wing game.

Actually the Falcon had this upgrade from ESB

I think it would be a title for the t-70, the visual dictionary mentions in multiple places that Poe's xwing is called Black One. If we get cool add on slots I think it will be through this

Black one should be a title but slot swapping feels like it should be a normal upgrade card that is limited to x wings so both t-70 and t-60 benefit.

Was not aware the T-60 was an x-wing.

i want a tie/sf and a black one sooner than later after seeing tfa
