....So. Random thought after playing some numbers with Kir Kanos.

• Howlrunner - Juke, Stealth Device
• Kir Kanos - Royal Guard TIE, Shield Upgrade, Autothrusters
• Wampa - Stealth Device
• Omicron Group Pilot - Electronic Baffle, Emperor Palpatine

Howlrunner is there to give everyone rerolls, but Juke means that she's also able to occasionally plink off people's focus tokens without giving up her evade.

Kanos and Wampa are both very aggressive uses of Palpatine's powers; Kanos and Palpatine have a good chance of causing 4 hits including a critical off the Interceptor's attack, whilst Howlrunner means you don't actually need to use Palpatine's ability to do this all the time - which in turn means you can use Palpatine on Wampa - and shoot straight through any dice-based defence in one go.

Plus, even a lambda with a howlrunner reroll and a focus token is not a shot to be taken too lightly; it's still 3 dice with focus and effectively predator.

The shield is there rather than a stealth device because Kanos won't have focus tokens most of the time, so some insurance from bad rolls or automatic damage is probably better than +1 agility
