Rule #2 The Double Tap

By tk426, in X-Wing

So wave 8 gave us 2 more options for the Double Tap. Dengar and Ghost. With those options the Rebels now have 3 ships that can Double Tap and Scum has 2 options. With the upcoming Imperial Veterans the Empire will finally get to do so as well. Do you think FFG will balance this out and give the Empire another ship capable of doing this to at least make it

3-2-2. If so what ship or pilot could we expect.

I think its likely in waves to come but the factions are generally pretty asymmetric in abilities giving each a different feel, so wouldn't be surprised if they didn't.

I hope not, keep the factions unique instead of carbon copies.

Good point. I didn't think of that.

Isn't Vader Crew... a double tap kinda?

Also, it really doesn't matter when the Imperial Double Tap isn't restricted by the Unique rule.

I'm sure this is a dumb question but his ability doesn't say additional attack. But I'm guessing that is implied?

Even if Imperials never get another double-tap ability in the future of this game, they're currently the only squad that can even dream of flying three double-tap craft in one squad.

Nevermind Epic. :D

Cant figure out which ships u r referring to. .... Which 3 rebels and 2 scum?

And again, titled Y wings.

Also, for both anything that can equip a turret upgrade.

I was working on an Imp list I called Double Tap. Redline festooned with cluster missiles and extra munitions with a titled Defender. I'm holding out for the Tie/SF to finish out the squad.

I guess they can all do it.

uhm

we've had a double tap since forever

we've had a potent, self-sufficient double tap come out just last wave

Sorry, I should have said; I know this is a dumb question but does Dengar's ability mean he can fire with the same primary weapon twice in a turn?
