TR-8R crew

By IG88E, in X-Wing

Would be awesome to see TR-8R (FN-2199) as a crew card. What abilities could he have? Maybe something opposite of Finn (when he is revealed)?

Peace be upon him, for he brought glory to the Empire and respect to stormtroopers.

He belongs in Imperial Assault, should they ever do a TFA box.

This should have been Captain Phasma. .

Indeed. Phasma felt like a bit of a letdown, especially given the actress. This would have let you see (a) okay, she's actually badass, and (b) someone in stormtrooper plate go down but not killed from a gunshot. You know, as if they were wearing body armour....

"Once per Activation Phase, if a friendly ship executes a maneuver that overlaps you, you may deal that ship one damage to roll one extra die during the Attack Phase."

TRAITOR!

Not waiting to derail the thread to much but I agree with this. It would have been her redeeming moment and also giving her capture later on by Finn a bit more meaning.

Maybe someone can do a limited special edition, directors anniversary Disney approved, Lucas effects cut version and replace him with Phasma.

I can't believe how easily Phasma rolled over. When she stood up from letting the shields down i thought for sure she was going to be like "I just alerted everyone, while also locking you in this room. You may think you can kill me but you'll never get out alive"

but instead it was like "Yo I put the ships defenses down but I totally trust my crew of historically-useless stormtroopers will get you good!

I'm praying she has a scene where she rips apart Resistance Soldiers in the second movie.

How about:

"Gain one attack against a ship in the Resistance faction" That could be kinda cool? Faction specific upgrades? And not just like "rebels' but it has to be "resistance" not super good in a tourney scene but pretty cool for fluff and casual play.

Im gonna derail the thread, phasma is this trilogies boba fett, looks really cool and intimidating, actually completely terrible

Ok then I go on derailing my own thread ;)

I much rather see (or saw) TR-8R as Boba Fett 2.0

I want a TR-8R anthology film with a trailer that shows the greatest stormtrooper of all time slowly pick himself up from the ground after the dust of battle has settled near Maz's Cantina.

Actually, people are turning TR-8R into this trilogy's Boba Fett by over-hyping a background character far beyond what their screen time merits.

Your mistake was equating screen time to merit.

TR-8R is legendary.

Agreed, TR8r (fn2199) actually did something, he kicked finns tail in that fight. Boba fett does jack and then falls into the sarlac pitt.

I like dead people to stay dead (like Boba), but I'd be willing to forgive them for having fn2199 not die from that shot.

I just hope we get to see more of THIS type of storm trooper combat in the coming movies.

Boba Fett wasn't totally useless... he did track the Falcon to cloud city. And Deliver Han to Jabba.

Only bounty hunter competent enough to track Han Solo to cloud city... and scrap IG-88 in the process.

TR-8R > Phasma.

  • TR-8R.

Imperial Only

At the start of the activation phase you may discard this card to make 1 unique pilot ability blank for the rest of the turn.

2 points

There we go sort of like a Boba Fet 1 time use only.

How about something that attacks "traitors"; mirror matches or cross faction ships.

•FN-2199

First order only

When attacking a ship of the same ship type you may increase you attack value by 1.

1 Point

Only 1 point because it is so situational, but a potential hard counter to shuttle lists.

Ah, you've done your homework, so you think he's Nines instead of Zeros?

Honestly Tee Ar - Eight Ar sounds way better than any side cannon that Disney brings up. They should have kept his name as TR-8R. Heck he should have been captain and not Phasma.
