So the dual cards are double faced I'm guessing?

I was wondering the same .. the image of the card only says increase pilot skill..

They do have the image for the -1 as well.

Captain Yorr + Electronic Baffle creates a range-2 bubble of stress immunity for your other ships. Because he can get rid of each stress immediately, he can soak any amount (up until he explodes).

Zuckus and 4-LOM look neat when partnering each other's respective G1-A, but look even scarier together, like with a K4 Security Droid plus Mangler Cannon on Bossk's YV.

With the advent of Tractor Beams, I'd be expecting a lot more debris and far fewer asteroids (unless the Tractor Beams are yours; in which case: asteroids ahoy!).

Do you guys think the PS-5 will have an EPT?

What about Tractor Beaming a TLT Y-wing? What's that? You are now in R1 of my list before you fire? Awwww......

Or Barrel Roll away to be out of R3 range?

I have to think Brobots frees up 2 points for a beam on each ship now.

Is it within the rules to attack your own ships?

Nope. You can only attack enemy ships, which puts self-tractoring shenanigans out of bounds for now.

"With its Tractor Beam, its devious pilots, its Cloaking Device, and all the other tricks at its disposal, the Mist Hunter is far more than just another G-1A starfighter. It is a signature vessel wholly worthy of its two renowned bounty hunters and easily one of the trickiest ships the Scum faction has in its arsenal."

cloaking device people, that one isn't spoiled yet!

You are now entering the Tractor Beam Meta.

Hold onto your butts...

it was though... in the initial Blurb.. its a scum only upgrade in the illicit slot (same benefits of cloak) but its an action, roll an eyeball (at a time dont know when) and it blows up and no more cloak. see above... ninjas

Yes it is. Illicit giving you the cloak action on a small ship. After using it you roll a green and on an eyeball result you lose the upgrade either decloaking immediately or dropping the cloak token immediately.

aww, how the hell did i miss that one before? thanks!

I want to know the cost of the PS3. Can I run a 4GZ build?!

Holy crap, that 4-LOM crew. Throw him on a Firespray, YV-666, or J-Masta 5k.....

"Oh, Whisper, you have your free Focus token? Well, I'm afraid it will be quite obsolete when Bossk rolls his attack dice."

4-LOM is now to be an auto-include on my Heavy hitter Bossk list.

Also I can see a good pairing of Zuckuss crew on a Trando-Slaver who has the Bossk crew, seeing as the Bossk crew doesn't care much about stress.

Maybe!

Tractor Beam is SO much more than we thought. Tie/D title is completely sick now.

I guess we know why they changed the rule about boosting and barrel rolling off the board lol.

First favorite tractor shenanigans:

Roll Biggs away from the ships he is protecting. Defender can then fire at actual targets.

Boost Stresshog so that he doesn't have arc on any aces.

What was the rule adjustment on boosting and barrel rolling off the board? Looking it up, but I'm not seeing anything.

You can't boost/barrell roll of the board anymore.

But Tractor Beam can potentially force a small ship near the edge to boost forward enough that they could potentially have no room to turn before leaving the board.

I can also envision a crazy scheme where five Tractor Scyks essentially daisy-chain a helpless enemy ship into doing the equivelent of a 9-forward.

Once per turn, I'm afraid. I imagine the developers had already thought of that sort of shenanigans

While yes it is only once per turn, the tractor beam sets the Scyk up with a neat little niche. 17 points to lower agility/reposition enemy ships is not bad.

Yeah, but that repositioning is coming at PS2.

Higher PS with Swarm Tactics might combo well here

everyone saying the Tractor beam is amazing needs to remember you're losing one of your attacks to do it. So It's good, but not busted good.

Being able to drop an enemy onto a rock denies them THEIR attack for the turn, too.

I dunno, that's pretty powerful.

(And, as noted, the TIE/D title just sings when paired with a tractor beam - ah, golden PC glory days are returned at last!)

Only thing that's sorta disappointing is the dial; I was hoping for something a bit crazier than a B-Wing with 3K and 4K turns.

Oh well, as long as the 3 skill generic is 22 points or less it'll do fine.

It has a white 4forward. The B has RED. Also green 3 forward. That dial is pretty much on par with the B wing, one could even argue its slightly better in many circumstances (like chasing).

I want to know the cost of the PS3. Can I run a 4GZ build?!

Maybe!

I have big doubt.

Dial slightly better than B-Wing.

Hull/Shield distribution slightly better than B-Wing.

Evade instead of Barrel Roll, no idea if better, but to tank, it is sure better.

PS3 instead of PS2 is probably better.

So my guess is that it cost 23 points, denying 4GZ build

Col. Vessery in a TIE/D would say differently.

Amazing on Defenders. Just pretty cool on everything else.

What about both Zuckass and 4LOM on a YV? Maybe Bossk w/ Mangler Cannon. OK...so you fire 3 dice and one hit is a crit. You can have your TL or Focus for the turn...maybe both. 4LOM lets you stop the defender from using a Focus. Zuckass lets you use force the defender to re-roll green dice (with no Focus). Turn your Crit into 2 hits! Let's just say that's vs. Stealth Soontir (not R3). That's 4 green dice with an Evade, but no Focus. He's forced to re-roll any successes. That's vs. 3 red dice that might be fully modified (TL and Focus) and with at least 1 hit turning into a crit, which turns into 2 hits!

Good point. It's the little things that count.

Isn't it slightly worse, since hulls can be critted unlike shields? Sure, there are some attacks that go past shields, but they're comparatively rare and only really a huge worry when you reach 2 hull.

While you are probably right about the cost, the G1-A has an inferior hull/shield distribution to the B-Wing, which is 3 hull/5 shields.
