Naming convention (What do we call new and old poe?)

By Marinealver, in X-Wing

'Starter' Poe, and 'Heroes' Poe.

I really don't get why people are so hurt over this. I'll quote a post I made from another topic:

"Oh boo freaking hoo...I love X-Wing, but I also play 'the other game' known as Star Trek Attack Wing. In said game there are 8 William T. Riker cards....three are captains, five are crew upgrades. Some even have the same cost, the thing that changes is either skill, or abilities, or both. We simply state which version it is with little nicknames:

"William E. Riker" - USS Enterprise E Expansion - Add crew upgrade, disable this card to perform an action on crew, elite talent, or tech upgrade as a free action.

"Hathaway Riker" - USS Hathaway Expansion - When attacking a ship with a larger hull value, gain +1 attack dice, when defending against a ship with a larger hull value, gain +1 defense dice.

"Hood Riker" - USS Hood Expansion - When defending, Roll +1 defense dice, you may convert one battlestation result into evade. If your captain is disabled, when defending you roll +2 defense dice and may convert 2 battlestation results into evade results.

"Pegasus Riker" - USS Pegasus Expansion - Your captain skill is +3. If your captain becomes disabled or if you have no captain, your ships skill number is 5.

"Admiral Riker" - USS Pasteur Expansion - Action: Place a Scan token besides your ship. You may then perform 1 action from your action bar as a free action. You cannot perform the Scan action as a free action this round.

"Starter Riker" - Starter Set - Action: If you are attacked this round at Range 1, Roll 2 attack dice, Any Hit or Critical Result damages the attacking ship as normal, even if your ship is destroyed by their attack. The attacking ship does not roll any defense dice.

"Crazy Beard Riker" - Assimilation Target Prime Expansion - Each time you perform a Battlestations, Evade, or a Target Lock action. Place 1 additional token of the appropriate type on this card. During the activation phase, you may spend 1 token from this card and perform the corresponding Action as a free action.

"Klingon Riker" - IKS Pagh expansion - You do not pay a faction penalty when assigning this card to a Klingon Ship. Action: Disable this card to increase your captain skill to 10 until the end phase.

If someone is vague your opponent simply asks or inspects your cards and then goes "Oh, okay, that one." never ever had a problem in experience with people switching out cards to get an advantage despite the same name and cost in Attack Wing, now will we get it in X-Wing, maybe, but that is blatant cheating and would earn anyone a one way ticket to bansville."

The PS8 should be Baby Poe :)

PS9 is a fully grown up ace.

I was thinking about this (as I like thematic flavour in upgrades, ships, Pilots, etc...) I think of the Poe in the new core set as "Prequel Poe" as he was a less experienced Pilot before "The Force Awakens" and then the new Level 9 Poe as just "Poe" as he is now currently (he had more time to build up his skill to level 9).

Slow Poe and Pro Poe

Please and Hotr Poe.

It's not difficult....

We just have a hotter poe now.

Corpo and Expanpoe.

LowPoe and UberPoe.

Poe and Really Poe
Poe and No Poe

Faux and Poe (PS 8 and 9 respectively).

Poe and Raven Poe

Please no numbered iterations.

Poe and Pro.

Slopoe and Pew get my votes

Poe 1 and Poe 2

Octa-Poe and Nona-Poe.

Then with VI/Adaptability we also have a Deca-Poe, and the less elegant Hendeca-Poe...

BluePoe and ProPoe seems to be right.

Poe & Black One Poe (BOP?)

Once you go black, you never go back! Wait, what?

I'm going with Poe and PROe

Slow Poe and Pro Poe

How could you not go with these names? They roll off the tongue and are simple. They say what they need to and are funny. Also, I made up Slow Poe, so of course I think it's the most brilliant thing around. :)

I like Core-Poe and X-Poe - clearly the second Poe have more XP than the first and comes in an expansion pack.

Somehow this post reminds me of an old racing horse named PotOOOOOOOO, I'll leave it up to you to figure out how it should be pronounced :)

Cheap Poe for core.

Dunno for new, maybe just Poe.

Poe and Angry Poe

Poe and Poe+1...or if you wanna throw back to old school Star Wars, technically PS9 Poe would be...

...#PoeShotFirst

*Sunglasses ON* YEAAAAAAAA!!!

Thing 1( PS 8 Poe) and Thing 2( PS 9 Poe).

Pate and Pine?
