Wasn't the reasoning the named pilots were flying the heavily modded falcon while the ORS was an unmodified generic freighter. All it needed was a big point reduction. But I guess one could argue that's what the title was for.
HEROES OF THE RESISTANCE!
Why give rebels a different version of the Falcon before giving us a scum version of it?

because there will never be a scum version.. simple enough to figure out..
Very exited about this (the upgrade cards more precisely).
Illicit large ship slam, even for one time use, you can cover a large distance and slam into a k-turn, s-loop, or drop bombs with advanced slam.
"Pattern analysis" (tech): perform red maneuver then take an action! Delay the stress to start of combat, where epsilon leader removes it..2 s-loops+action for days.
Also very exited for "trick shot" and "snap shot", if they are 1pt discard elites with similar potential as "crack shot".
I would imagine "Finn" is a 3pt gunner with in primary arc restriction to pair nicely with YT-1300 pilot Rey, and fit as a valued crew member on the VCX-100.
Hey, could that upgrade be "Pre-Thrust"? Like, Advanced Sensors, but restricted to the Boost action? Maybe somebody already came up with that.
Write out thrusters, then put the "Pr" above it like the card. If the word is centered, it should be five letters?
"Proto Thrusters"? Maybe adds evade action to action bar for small ships? I.E. kinda like a targeting computer
That would be fun with new Poe, PS9, PTL, BB8, Title, Thrusters for Evade
Why not ![]()
Will see.
Fly Han or Rey and throw a Navigator on the falcon with stay on target and the new Falcon title for some fun! Have dash on board as well to get focus when you start ditching stress with green maneuvers.
Edited by TokyogrizI think the real travesty of this expansion is Jess only being Pilot Skill 3, should be 5 at least.
Many, many people on this forum need to recognize that they are not the only audience for this game. You may not even be the most important.
FFG has a massive hit on their hands and need to produce content. That content is going to attract more and more new players. This must happen or the game will die.
You folks with 5 T-70s and 2 Falcons can either buy this or not. FFG is banking on more sales by attracting a larger audience than disgruntled former Warhammer players.
Me? I'm super happy that I did not cave and by another T70 blister. Now I'll have four and four IA to go with them.
Extra Falcon? Maybe try to put lights in it...
There is enough new ships and cards to make this worthwhile. I have 2 Falcons atm but no worries. Just look at the list of new cards and poes ship makes this worthwhile.
Grant you I am not going to pay full MSRP like some on here demand. But it will be worth the $35 or so.

Agreed, though a named low PS is pretty rare.
I'm good with this set, as long as Rebel Veterans is still out there! I'll probably pick one of these up. I'm glad I never tried a Poe repaint!
I know Brah! I just gor another TFA Core this week since there was a nice sale on them and such at Amazon. The reason was to finish my main force of TIE Fo-Fo's and to do my own POE Repaint... yipes!

On the bright side Joe, more ships =better!
Except here, there are no "more ships".
Well, I am as much of a collector as I am a player. So, new models doesn't bother.
Honestly I would guess most of us are really.
This is one of the only expansions outside of huge ships I will definitely only buy one of. I usually get enough to run 100 points of anything.
When i first got into this game i decided not to buy 2 falcons.
Good call ![]()
You will have to give up engine upgrade to take the smuggler slot for the illicit upgrade. Dont think it will be worth it sadly.
And have you got any idea what Han's ability would be? I think that it would be fun, if he gets something like this:
"Your ships always shoots first. No matter of other ships pilot skill".
That would be really thematic ![]()

with Rey being a IG-style s-loop junkie? xD
TIE defenders gather, and now my watch begins. It shall not end until the T-65 gets a fix.I shall take no upgrades, buy no ships, fly no PWTs.I am the Astromech in the hanger. I am the watcher on the forums. I am the fire that burns with anger, the player that flies the X-Wing, the the shield that guards the hull of men.I pledge my life and honor to the T-65 Fix Watch, for this night and all the nights to come.
I approve of this post. Well said sir. I salute you.
I really hope Han and Chewie also get interesting abilities that make flying the PWT less of a chore. I want to fly my Flacon, I really do, but whenever I think of doing so I'd much rather put Kanan with the Ghost title into my list or just fly some K-Wings with Nets and Bombs.
I will definitly fly Rey a lot, her ability is quite good and the synergy of Kanan and the new Falcon title is remarkable. It should work, right? Both card effects happen "After you execute a manouver" in which case you get to chose the order in which you resolve them. Something wrong with that interpretation?

I have 4.. since wave 3 era lol... and I'll probably get this one for the cards mostly.. and the black One repaint.. glad I didn't pull the trigger on that one a month ago.. lolz
Why give rebels a different version of the Falcon before giving us a scum version of it?
Because it was Resistance in the movies and technically it was rebellion in the movies too as Obi Wan and Luke (loyal to the rebellion) purchased its services before you saw it. Since then it has always been rebellion.
If you want Scum Falcon you need Disney to approve this video
I think the real travesty of this expansion is Jess only being Pilot Skill 3, should be 5 at least.
Agreed, though a named low PS is pretty rare.
Her ability may synergise with moving first / shooting last.
Also, anybody commented on the lack of space with "YT-1300..." on Smuggling Compartments? Might also be applicable to YT-2400 or HWK.

I'd guess 1300 and 2400 only, those being the two Rebel smuggler freighters.
But equally, if they were going to do that they could have just said 'YT only'. Maybe 1300, 2400, VCX100.
Gotta say, I'm liking Rey's ability a lot, and I think we're going to see a lot more like it (and like Dengar's) on PWTs, that involve actually pointing front at target. And I'm ALL for that.
I still want YT-1300 and YT-2400 to have some scum pilots. Really.
Excuse me if this has been mentioned already (don't have time to read through 19 pages) but I've just noticed in the picture it comes with a weapon disabled token! I can't see which card might include this effect, could we get mag pulse torpedos?
Given I mention the Contracted Scout in my post, and brobots in further discussion, please regale me with the lists featuring scum specific ships that so dominated play time.It's not like we literally just had a wave landthat gave Scum a ****ing incredible array of crew and pilot options (Dengar! 4LOM & Zuckuss BFFs 4 LYFE! Revenge Bot! Tell Trevor! Dengar again! BOBA ****ING FETT!) and made a Scum list the Feared Gatekeeper That All Lists Must Be Able To Deal With or anything. Nope. It's just been wall-to-wall Scyks and Black Sun Enforcers round here, yes siree!
Some people really, really need to simmer the **** down.
We're just about to get an Imperial expansion revisiting existing ships. They've just announced a Rebel expansion revisiting existing ships. Would you care to place a small wager on which faction will be getting a "fix" expansion next?
I'm playing catchup this morning and afraid I don't have time to read all 19 pages of comments. Am I right in thinking this is the imperial veterans equivalent for rebels or are they completely unrelated?
