It is pretty obvious if u just read yhe article. U gain the pilot abilities of all IG2000 in your squad.

I think this for the reason that no one is playing really other than Brobots when it comes to IG's.

So we can expect to see:

-double tapping

-shield generation

-free evade from boost

-sloops turned in to hard sloops

That is bringing so many different types of combinations for Scum that it is almost scary, but I'm excited!

Except that

Double tapping requires TEH GUN, what means you're stuck with Moralo Eval (and he wants his 4-lom+dengar+Zuckuss)

aaaand FFG doesn't love us so it's most likely IG-B himself. Just because making us sad Mercs is what FFG likes to do.

Shield generation is 146% worse than regen rebels have.

free evade from boost requires a boost.

Sloops on crew-hurling ships? Not a single one yet.

Isn't JumpMaster who has sloops? And Firespray has place for IGb ability etc..

I'm sure that they didn't wrote that just for no reason in to that article?

Just to make us feel it

if its even remotely possible the IG crew lets you pull off the brobot shenanigans without running those ships that crew better be 4-5 **** points if not more.

That is potentially endless possibilities, many of which could be insanely strong.

It is pretty obvious if u just read yhe article. U gain the pilot abilities of all IG2000 in your squad.

Because as we all know, the write up in the articles is 100% rules accurate.

Let's just wait to see the card before we make assumptions about how it works. There is a good amount of text on the card.

I think the point would be to run IG2000 on the list so that crew would "copy" that ability. Iy would make more sense this way, so that we would see other IG2000 lists than brobots.

I guess it might be something totally different, but I still doubt that the information in the article would be misinformed, maybe it could be interpreted that way..

The article suggests that its the Shadowcaster that benefits from sharing an IG-2000 title, but

IG-88A - is crap

IG-88B - Shadowcaster has no Cannon

IG-88C - Shadowcaster has no Boost

IG-88D - Shadowcaster has no Sloop3 that we know of yet.

So it will be limited at best unless it has some other new ability that goes back the other way onto the other IG-88 Pilots.

Still really hoping it works both ways. Meaning you can add a pilot ability of another ship to your Aggressor of choice. I just wanna have 2 ships dropping bombs using the 3 templates. Is that so much to ask for FFG!

While it wont help the Caster it can help the OTHER Scum ships. IG88B with a Kath Scarlet HLC, or a Bossk HLC. IG88C can work with any ship if you pay for EU. 88D we will have to wait and see. I feel that IG is being thrown into the Caster because they had no place better to release him.

Well I can't really think many things other than that from that phrase.

The card says "You have" and second line "each firing" if I can see it correctly... So might be something totally different.

What you get from that? You have.......each firing....?

there's no way ffg is going to allow us to transfer palob's ability to aggressors.

Honestly, if it does turn out you can steal multiple tokens, it will really end up working more like a Carnor Jax type ability. Youll deny your opponent focusing/evading because you'll just steal it, forcing TL/BR etc instead. If they still elect to do those, knowing they are giving you those free tokens they deserve to lose

The words, " upgrade your Shadow Caster with the abilities of each IG-2000 in your squad " highly imply that you will be able to use all IG-88 abilities on the ship with the crew card. For example, two Aggressors and a G-1A make 95 point. If the IG-88 crew is 5 points or less, you could have a 3 ship list, each with 2 IG abilities.

That's exactly what I'm hoping for, but probably not

That would be pretty neat! But would that ship have then two skills or that would replace the one they have normally?

I would like to have Palobs skill for Manaroo or Attani mind link ship. That card would be pretty unpredictable to the game, might be way too powerful card!

But Scum needs one 6-8p crew memeber card! Maybe Jabba will one day come in our huge ship and bring some extra shenanigans to the game! Can't even start to think what cool stuff je could pull out!

Well that is my tough run too in that! But some people keeps saying that those wouldn't bring good combinations in current Scum.ships. I haven't still try to think about them but I guess I could do that next..

Sadly, but yes, no love for the crab bros.

Although Fett's ability sounds also ridiculously cheezy.

RUSH INTO THE FRAY!

RE-ROLL WHAT CAN BE RE-ROLLED!

When it was first spoiled, my first thought was for a lightweight IG-C to run alongside Super Dengar (already a fun build).

I'm sure there are other interesting combos but I don't think the card needs to be overly restrictive as the IG abilities eithe dont work (sloopbot), are restricted in opportunity to use (regenbot) or require extra point investment (boost bot needing EU on the crewed ship).

I don't think the crew needs to be a specific bot, it can just be an IG. Not labeling it A to D like the pilots means it can then be unique if it causes issues in epic or with multiple IG crewed G1-A's go have multiple ships sharing the IG abilities.
