It looks like FFG left two upgrade cards unspoiled in the upcoming wave 8 expansions. A bomb upgrade called Thermal Detonator from the Ghost expansion and what im guessing is a salvaged astromech called something along the lines of overcharged/overclocked agromech in the Punishing One expansion. Anyone got any guesses on what one or both of these cards will do?
The Unspoiled Upgrade Cards
One will explode and cause ouchies, the other one will probably do some movement/action related thingy.

I set myself up for that one, kudos to you Dagonet! Anything a little bit more specific?
I'm thinking the Overcharged Agro will be another Expose/Opportunist type card with a penalty.
Well, Thermal Detonator is not an 'Action:' card. So you reveal your maneuver and then drop it, I guess. It was a rather small thing in the film, maybe the template won't be very big either.
Weren't the Jumpmaster and Ghost generics also not spoiled?
I like that ships now can be "bombers", by throwing handgranades out the windows.
My guess is that Thermal Detonator is 3-4 point bomb that damages ships in the normal area of effect for a bomb and also assigns them a stress token.
Over-charged/clocked Astromech is probably a pain-for-power upgrade like so many other Scum cards. It may have a Leebo-type effect where you get an extra movement or can increase the speed of a maneuver. I wonder if there's a die roll effect, similar to Cloaking Device, so the overworked little guy has a chance to blow his motivator every time you use him.
Weren't the Jumpmaster and Ghost generics also not spoiled?
The Ghost generic hasn't been spoiled, but the Jumpmaster one has. Both Misthunter generics are unspoiled as well.
As is the second TAP generic.
not to mention exactly how the Dual Cards work.
Maybe Thermal Detonators don't explode until you want them to.
I have a crawling suspicion that thermal detonators are dropped by ENEMY ships when they move instead of by your own.

I like this idea. Something like spend a focus token or the card itself has detination as an action.
