This is available now? Like do I need to go to Target or barnnes and Noble ASAP?

Anyone else expecting this expansion to cost at least $45, and are a little shocked it is only $39.95... ![]()
I was right about this except for the Poe repaint. I said there would have be a new FA Falcon as the way to get Rey and Finn crew cards and a Rey pilot for the Falcon. Nice to see 2 Integrated Astromechs included as I'm lacking those.
Just how many Poe repaints did people do I wonder.
The one card in the fan looks like it could be Snap S(hot)
Wonder if it lets you take a shot at someone that flies through your arc or barrel rolls/boosts out of arc or something similar that lets you break the normal combat rules.
Another looks like Pat(ern) Ana(lysis) And says something about pilot skill. Maybe increases your PS during activation phase only.
If Pattern Analysis is what I think it is, this is gonna be huge for both the T-70 and F/O. Looks like you can swap the Perform Action Step and the Check Pilot Stress Step. Therefore, Poe can now T-Roll, focus, then receive his stress for the T-Roll. HUGE!!! F/O's with Juke could then S-Loop, evade, then receive stress!!!
Im excited for the new Falcon Pilots Cards. Han is outdated, since there are a number of dice mod cards out now. Rey is a good ability, I love re-rolling blank abilities!
Sucks we have to buy another Falcon though, I dont need two. Guess one can go on a shelf at work ![]()
So Smuggled computer allows Rebels to have a Scum Illicit Upgrade!!! Sweet!!!!!
Smuggling compartments.
and no, not sweet for us scum players who already have crap all to call our own
least i have my mostly crappy selection of salvaged astromechs :-/
Lol Scum took Y-wings from rebels and made them great, then got a procession of great astromechs and crew.
Scum are fine.
The Rebel stress hog outstrips the Unhinged TLT. It also misses the point of "to call their own".
In what utterly delusional world do you live where they have a "procession of great astromechs"? Crew, sure. Astromechs? Unhinged is great, but boring. R4 is the only other one worth a crap, and neither is on the level of R2-D2, R5-P9, R2-D6 or R3-A2. Granted, those are all unique, but scum unique astromechs are all terrible, overcosted, have a drawback, or some combination of 2 or 3 from that list.
Other than the contracted scout, what scum only ship sees actual competitive play? Certainly not the Scyk or the Starviper, our first actual scum ships. Certainly not the Khiraxz.
We have the contracted scout and brobots, who arent all that great in comparison. Now, we have one less "scum" thing. Yay
Whew. I was worried about the lack of Rebel only unique upgrades. After this they'll only have about triple the crew that the Empire has.
Also it looks like Smuggler's Compartment lets you take another modification, possibly reducing its cost if previous patterns hold.
Looking forward to this and the other new unannounced stuff. Put the pre orders up already!
TFA was just a cheap remake and brought nothing new to universe. Before the movie I was really looking forward to it with hope to see new ships that could enrich this game. I was so wrong and disappointed. Nothing really new came and FFG is blindly following the movie by cheaply remaking existing packs and ships (I guess they have no choice so it is Disney to blame). Falcon with rectangular dish and reskinned X-Wing that was already in new core and stand-alone pack in previous wave. No invention - lot of profit. So sad. At least my wallet looks happy now it is only threaten by IA (still lots of possibilities before remake wave arrives) and Armada (which is still new so I am not sure what to expect about rest of Wave III that was not announced yet).
I would rather see ships and heroes from Clone Wars - not great but at least brought new stuff. What we have here? Slightly modified X-Wing with Poe and no-name pilots, same ship with no-name pilots in single pack; yet again the same ship - this time black, wow Poe again... Slightly modified falcon wow, Han again...Chewi again... Rey, Rey again... we also got new TIEs - they are balck and their card is slightly different...
It feels so cheap with no invoation. Am I the only one who sees this?

Ah lovely, cheaper engine upgrades on the falcon......

Unhinged blows away R2 and R4 is simply better than any generic Rebel astromech.
Kavil has an EPT and a great ability while Rebel Y-wing pilots not named Gold Squadron gather dust.
Whew. I was worried about the lack of Rebel only unique upgrades. After this they'll only have about triple the crew that the Empire has.
ah, but do they have the only crew that matters?

lol, I checked after this post.
Rebels have 18 (all unique) +those coming in this set
Imperials have 9 (7 unique)
Scum have 9 (7 unique)
This does not include huge ship only crew cards.
But yeah, rebels totally need more rebel only crew choices.
I miss the days where illicit slots and s-loops were things that only belonged to Scum... but I'll feel better if they give me some more scum toys instead
I miss the days where slams were things that only belonged to Rebels...
Ok, not really. Worth noting that way more Scum ships gained SLAM than Rebel ships gained S-Loops and Illicits. ![]()

No way this is the case. They have no reason to give the YT another slot, and reduce the price of another slot. They do that to fix ships. These ships need no fix.
I'm so pumped about the pilots! I no longer need to pretend the "Blue Novice" is Jessika Pava and "Blue Ace" is Snap Wexley. So Excited to actually have Jess and Snap in the game!

I didnt say they were bad, simply that 2 good ones (of our whopping 7 choices, mind you) is not a "precession of great astromechs".
As for R2 vs Unhinged, the only reason it seems so much better is because of the Y-Wing's dial (the only scum ship that had a mech slot until the jumpmaster). My Jumpmaster would kill for an R2 over Unhinged. Its not like Rebel players would suddenly be using Unhinged mechs on their X-Wings; they would stick to their amazing unique mechs. And the E-Wing is the only other mech carrier, which would still be in "Go Horn or go home" territory.
Yet Another squad builder already updated with the new material for anyone wanting to jump in to list building with the little that has been spoiled.
I said a procession of great crew and astromechs.

Looking back at the card, it may instead limit the cost of the second modification. Perhaps 3 points or less specifically to address EU?
Can't wait to see a YV-666 make a 3 hard turn, and then SLAM into another 3 hard turn, successfully completing its first K-Turn
Bossk with Daredevil has already done plenty of those, and it's a lot of fun. More like a T-Roll really, though
.
What we have so far?
YT-1300 Pilots:
T-70 Pilots:
Upgrades
I said a procession of great crew and astromechs.
Apologies then, my brain separated that into a separate precession for each.
I still maintain our mech selection is mostly crappy, our scum only ship selection is laughable, and now our illicit slot is no longer unique to us. And the only thing scum gets out of it is access to a seeming one-time SLAM.
woo *finger twirl*
meanwhile one of the best pilots in the game gets inarguably better for no real reason
I'm already thinking of pairing my two favorite Star Wars characters in a list. Lando + Rey double falcons, just for fun. Not a whole lot of upgrades available but it will be mostly for casually goofery.
