However, considering the timing of the Wave IX announcement and that "aces" packs tend to be only pre-existing ships, I doubt Kylo's shuttle will be in it. It will most likely contain 1 TIE/fo and 1 TIE/sf with new pilots, upgrades, and swanky new paint jobs.

I dunno. It is the obvious other thing to include, and the Who's Afraid Of The Big Black Bat is essentially a reskin of the Lambda-class shuttle.

The Falcon in 'Heros' was a new model (granted essentially just a new dish), so the 'new shuttle' might be a good counterpart. It'd be nice for the first order to have a large ship of their own.

More interesting will be what the hell they do for TIE/fo fighters; I'm not aware of any named aces popping up, so are we just going to get more callsign-names?

Most important thing about Kylo Ren's Shuttle..... It's almost certainly going to have 2 crew, so it'll be yet another platform for the Emperor. And THAT may be significant.

I don't know Brah... Kylo might be sweet his own dam-self: stop'n lay-zers and such!

Scew-framph!

Champions of the First Order will be announced sooner than later.

With Captain Phasma Pilot for TIE/sf.

Yup.

What would here pilot ability be? Discard all shield tokens?

Prolly sumtin dumb like that... yeah.

When you receive a Damage Card, you may discard that damage card and remove a shield token from a friendly ship at range 1-2.

you wish Phasma was even half as cool as xizor

Okay that is actually kinda useful...

Would actually work well with Quickdraw.

I think Supreme Leader Snoke might need 4 <crew> slots.
