This one is 'meh' at best. I can see it on Dengar w/ Predator, but you lose extra greens from Unhinged or the shoot back droid.

I don't see this being taken that often. For 1 point more R4 Agro is far superior.

No you're not supposed to make reasonable posts till page 3.

The only place I can think of to use it is Kavil with either mindlink or manaroo to get him focuses, then just ignore stress. But you better hope you don't lose whoever's giving him focus tokens...

It's decent on the JumpMaster when focus is important.

I myself was planning on running a JumpMaster with Lone Wolf and Recon Spec. Now I either have a source for a third focus token should I need it, or a viable alternative to recon spec that saves me 2 points and only needs to be used on turns when I'm taking fire.

I'm not saying it doesn't have its uses, but it's not the astromech of my dreams.

I think you could do something really cool with 4-lom, Mindlink and a U-boat. The idea is that you Evade with 4-lom, focus with the U-boat, 4-lom now gets his focus. Then, you spend the focus, give 4-lom another focus he might or might not use as well as a stress he can now pass on at the end of combat.

I'm not sure an extra Proton over Plasma is a gamebreaker. Some nice defensive options with the extra Focus token, though.

Knowing whether or not your want to stick a stress on 4-L0M during the combat phase is pretty interesting.

The downside is that if you want the focus token to be relevant for 4-L0M during combat, you need to put both Attani Mindlink AND this astromech on a high PS JumpMaster. It's trixie, but I'm not sure Dengar is super stoked about it.

Meh the jm5k is so much better off with r4 that the point isn't worth it

After all, you can r4 and white seggys, or r4 and not go left

I wonder if there is a reason they renamed it Overclocked R4 from Overclocked Aggromech, assumed name base off card fan image in previews?

99% sure it's to get you to buy most wanted for the good version of the card

There are circumstances to justify this, but R4 is worth the extra point.

You can use this with Bodyguard, but dunno if it's worth the stress to keep the focus for offense/defense...

Well... we know what's going on all the scum TLT Y-Wings now!

Indeed we do!

They are both R4, it's time to be a little more specific. Agromech or overclocked.

Anyway, back on topic. I think it's a niche card for now but could be a sleeper for later. If they ever get a Tycho type ability, this could become very powerful for 1 point.

Maybe Drea with blaster turret and Manaroo with K4 to toss her a focus and target lock each turn?

Nah r4 is r4 aggro

This is junk r4 or r4-

Overclocked does not deserve to get confused with aggromech

I don't get the vitriol, for a single point this is a pretty freaking great Agromech. Especially on the 2AGI Jumpmaster.

At least, the way I'm reading it seems like every time you get shot at and spend a Focus defensively you can stress out for a replacement. Or would it not work multiple times in a round? Frankly this was the final cog for the torpedo boats, because now even if they get shot at first they can still trigger their Deadeye Torps AND modify the dice beyond just the Chimps.

"Now Blaster Turrets Will No Longer Suck" said no one, ever (save for those hoping for missiles and torpedoes to be fixed).

overclocked is basically infi-stim if you have a focus going into combat

it works as many times as you wish, except it also stresses you that many times

given the JM5k dial

you lose out on A LOT when stressed, especially the left 2-seggys which you can no longer turn into and focus for deadeye due to stress

not to mention the utter lack of green banks or turns to the right

it is distinctly inferior for only a point decrease, giving you only a defensive advantage for a turn in exchange for gutting maneuverability and/or offense the next

the poor Ys shudder to even think of the thing, what with their 2 green manuevers

this thing is looking for a combo that only currently exists in manaroo (Who, thankfully, has no range on his ability and can afford to screw up his dial a bit if he's just crutching on his support + PWT)

OC with an feedback and APL for 32 which is the same price as the Bumpmaster and loses out on intimidation and int agent

the loss of int agent may be a killer, though, so I'd personally go 31 and remove APL. Slap on a crackshot if you got it cause why not, or save it for a sexy scum crew

you're giving up the raw "**** you" power of the bumpmaster for support that ultimately may make your torpboats much more flexible, though that's 99% on manaroo's ability passing focus to enable deadeye. Overclocked just lets him keep one for himself; might be better off ditching it for intimidating/APL at 32 points

I agree that the R4 Agromech is superior, most especially with Deadeye at hand, but Overclocked provides a defencive bonus that R4 cannot. The cost to use it sucks pretty bad, but you also get to choose when to use it. It's definitely going to punish your opponent for splitting fire, that's for sure, and the one ship being focussed down can put up a better resistance than usual.

I personally like what it opens up in the Triple Jumpmaster build, since that bonus Focus doesn't work as well with Protons the way the R4 TL does. As a trade for expected damage consistency and crits from the Torps, I can still get similar results from Plasmas and have room for Crew. Greedo alongside those Plasmas certainly makes them hit like Protons.

I realize it is hideously inconvenient, but there happens to be this resource that lets you looks up the gender of any particular Star Wars character.

false, Manaroo is just kangaroo jack in disguise

This card feels like it's meant for another wave, perhaps if scum get Nyms Bomber, it'll have a unhinged astro slot.

hm.

Attani Mindlink + this + a ship somewhere that can handle shrugging stress and gaining focus every round, and you're away laughing.

Now I'm even more annoyed that the StarViper didn't come out looking more like a 3-attack TAP; it would've made Guri (or Xizor, to ablate the obvious 'kill him first' target priority!) + infini-focus stress-craft an absolute terror. As it is, it's... decent. But it's either a hail-mary defensive card/reusable glitterstim, or it's in the wrong slot. Would've been a phenomenal crew ability (hello, 4LOM, Mouldy Crows, and/or Palob!), though. Probably why it's a 'mech.
