Anything that is an upgrade.

Well, obviously, but I was more so looking for the wildly powerful things he can snipe.
IGB HLC anybody?

Vaders ATC..
So Attani mindlink is better than it looks methnks. Consider swarms of z95 fleahunters combined with say palob with cool hand/ tactician and or black sun aces with a mix of adrenaline rush, wired, maybe even a single ID to trigger cool hand. Seems like it has some potential.
In fact kaa'to leeachos works superbly with it! Steal a focus give everyone a focus lolz.
Edited by Carnor RexGoddamn, Fett's ability is so fluffy!
No description of the dual upgrade cards yet though huh?
Nope, but those are in the Mist Hunter and we've already had that preview.
Hey what happens if you take the Ghost title off of the Ghost before Phantom undocks?
I know I've never faced Super Dash, Fat Han, RAC, 50 point Brobots or the like.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.
That's 47 PTs for a 3atk turret with 9 hull
Dash with title and HLC is 48pts for 4atk turret with 10hull
Han with c3p0 or r2 is 49pts for 3atk turret rerollable with 13hull
RAC by itself is 46pts with a 3atk turret with free Crits and 16hull
Brobots by itself is 36 points with 3atk non turret with 8hull.
Again there is not a single ship in game being used competitvely at all that costs nearly 50 pts and that fragile. None zilch nada. You basically have brobot level of hull without the durability of the brobots at 11 pts higher. With that few hull you need something to make the ship durable (autothrusters, regeneration, more hull/shields, etc) or that 50 pts will never make its points back.
The title for the punishin one is overpriced by at least 2 points.
Edited by GungoAnyone think they might have to say that titles can't be removed by Boba?
Like how on earth would Boba make the Millennium Falcon no longer be the Falcon? Or The Ghost no longer the Ghost?

IGB HLC anybody?
IG-2000 title would be the first target there.
Dash's EU or HLC.
Advanced Cloaking Devices.

Also if you removed the B-wing title, does the crew member fall out? Boba flies over there and removes the extra seat?
B-Wing /e2 is a modification...
Name me a ship that's as fragile as dengar with title
Firesprays and Brobots are both as fragile and they're nearly as expensive, but also lack PWT which always raises the cost of a ship. Putting the basic upgrades on them easily pushes them into the 50 point realm.
VT-49's may have a lot more hull, but they also have zero evade dice.
So again... Brobots are typically 50 point ships... Unless you're going to say they're not used competitively, and they only have 8 HP.
Edited by VanorDMBut it has already been established that removing a Chardaan will not increase the point value of your squad. And the current sentiment is that ejecting R2-D6 will not lose you your EPT.

The tough thing about ACD is that if you are getting that crit in, they are basically dead already.. Might want to save Boba for their support if it's also scary.
3 x Black Sun aces with mind link
Palob, mind link, TLT, 4-Loom.
Those 3 aces will end up with focuses and target locks on the alpha strike...
Yet another Squad Builder has been updated, **** but he's quick!

doh. always get that mixed up.
The question still stands on titles though. Seems super odd to be able to remove a ship's title.

And that's without taking PS9 with natural Barrel Roll into account.
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.
So this definitively puts to rest the notion that all upgrade cards have to be usable against all opponents.
We already had VI ofcourse. Pointless against BBBBZ also.

When you talk about how fragile or durable a ship is, do you think it's a good idea to completely ignore the role of evade dice?
I nominate "Blue Steel" the official nickname for this vessel. Someone else want to second that motion?

I think the expansion as a whole is okay. I probably won't buy it, but with the regeneration and new tricks and attack options, it rounds out Scum more, and the faction needed that.
Not sure if the Jumpmaster will become a staple, but we'll see.
7/10...?

Kill a ship without ever firing at it. Soontir is not a fan.

Depends. An interceptor is certainly fragile, but it can be extremely durable.
The tough thing about ACD is that if you are getting that crit in, they are basically dead already.. Might want to save Boba for their support if it's also scary.
Oh, certainly, but that wasn't the question now was it?
.
He can also strip the hurt out of any large or huge ship.
