That is a sexy, sexy, droid that makes fragile aces cry.
Anyone think this droid should be like range 1-2? not a big deal, but it doesn't look like that droid should have a long range weapon.
Punishing One Preview!
It's unheard of! Who would spend more than 50 points on a single ship?!Dude dengar is nearly a 50pt ship just with him the title and a decent ept. That's ridiculously expensive for a 9hull/shield ship. It's not like his ability is garuanteed to work every turn either. That's just way to expensive. You will be lucky to ever make his points back before he dies especially as he basically becomes he center of your list. If you try to make him more durable your just taxing on more points and making him 50+ points which is unheard of.
The closest comparable ship is RAC with 16 hull points.

*Dash and Han walk into the room*.... *slowly back out*
Also their build for Tel is wrong, as it has 2 crew cards but it can only take 1.
Yeah they screwed that up too. They even referred to the Gonk as a Salvaged Astromech in the article when it's clearly Crew. Writer was obviously confused thoroughly.
Anyone else think the Mindlink is borderline unusable on certain sorts of ships? I hope you never need to K-turn in formation...
Mass Mindlink is absolutely going to be a terrible idea. Limited to certain pilots, it's not so bad. The best candidates IMO are probably Manaroo (for reasons posted above, plus has a white S-Loop for safely turning around), Kavil (works great in conjunction with an R4 Agromech), Leechos (TL, steal focus from Mindlinked ship, that ship gets focus back), either of the HWK pilots, and lists where you're only running IG88 with another ship.

I know I've never faced Super Dash, Fat Han, RAC, 50 point Brobots or the like.
On a related note, so glad boba and dengar crew aren't defensive
No fat pwts to worry about 
If you're gonna fly fat dengar, you gotta WORK that arc.
And if **** gets too dumb, BOBA can snipe the title 
With 9 hull points and no regeneration I can't think of a single competitve build that is that fragile.
You mean like a 50+ point S&V Fett which has 10hp, or a 50 point Brobot that has 8 total HP?
Yeah no one plays a dual brobot list competitively...

Scum isn't what you might call the most defensive faction.

The Jumpmaster works out to be a little more durable than the Decimator, on average, and a little less durable than the named YT-1300 pilots.

stressbot cackles like a maniac
Right up to the point that he gets eliminated in the first round of combat by Boba crew.

Oh man how devastating would that be to have your 12 point card erased by a 1 point card.
What would happen if you knocked the chadraan refit or the new defender title off and their squad points suddenly ballooned above 100?
Things Boba can snipe-
PTL
TLT
R3-A2
C3P0
R2D2
Ysanne Issard
EMPEROR PALPATINE
What else?

Think this was settled with the ruling about the EPT staying after the EPT droid goes kerplop with integrated astromech.
No effect on the game, outside of removing any benefits from the card (so no more evade for the Defender, but point cost at that point is moot).
Will this put a real damper on palpatine Decimators?
Sure , but now think about that shiny new big ship that Rebels are getting..all these cool crewmembers...headshot!

Hardpoints on an epic ship?
Boba is a Tier one card. The only thing he can't break is generics that don't run upgrades, and right now most generics in squads have at least one upgrade.
DAT crew
Almost like the misthunter, the scum crew are cooler than the ship :0
25 point generic is sexy, though. That's a mere 33 for deadeye plasmas w/extras and chips; 34 with 4lom
Boba is absolutely hilarious and WILL lead to troll. I'm just crying thinking of poor Miranda losing her tlt
Dengar is a disgusting reverse predator that frees up your ept. Put him on a TLT palob and watch the fireworks
Hell, put him with Torkil + Dorsal Turret + Dengar... Torkil finally gets re-rolls with out having to take target lock or k4.

Scum isn't what you might call the most defensive faction.
apart from the single greatest defensive profile in the aggressor, with access to stim + thrusters
fortunately, nothing but Xizor is going to approximate their tankiness

Make sure you don't depend on any of them!
Goddamn, Fett's ability is so fluffy!
No description of the dual upgrade cards yet though huh?
