First Coordinate, then...

By Sithborg, in X-Wing

Well, they brought the Coordinate action from Epic. Clearly, Reinforce and Recover won't be used in the normal game. But, does anyone think the Jam action may make it's way into the standard game? Does anyone not want it?

I personally am really excited for the Coordinate action to make it's way into normal play, as it can allow for some fun support ships.

Doesn't Jam give stress tokens until a ship has two of them?

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that'll never make it into standard play.

If Jam ever makes it in, it will be highly, highly restricted. Like, a dotted upgrade that can only be equipped on an HWK, and in such a way that it would Jam the ship that carries it. Otherwise, you'd largely be able to shut an opponent out of actions completely, which would be bad for balance.

I mean, even in Epic play, the maximum number of ships you can field with Jam is TWO. It's restricted like that for a reason.

Reinforce on the Punisher, please .

No. I'm surprised we didn't see Coordinate sooner (it'll likely have been on the Lambda had it been invented then) but Jam is as limited as it is for a very good reason.

Reinforce I could see in the right circumstances. Recover is tied to the energy mechanic so it's fairly certain we won't see that.

I'd be down with a unique jam upgrade.

Coordinate: I'm surprised it took this long!

I'd be 110% down with reinforced punishers

I'd be 110% down with reinforced punishers

Sure, but how do they become reinforced? If they're taking the reinforcement action, where are they getting their actions to actually fire the ordnance?

Is coordiate that 3 tringle looking icon on Kylo's ship?

Free action title I'd guess

Even better Tie/IT becomes an inverse Tie/x7

Speed 2 or slower? Assigned reinforce token!

That's simple

Make it a non unique title

After you require a target lock you may take a free reinforce action

Or something like that

Yep!

FCS?

Isn't the kylo ren pilot ability like a mini jam?

You've got reason.

But I still wanna stress the crap out of some single target.

It would come as a title to be used with bomb carrying punishers allowing them to serve in a heavy bomber role, and could be used with FCS as well.

First Slicer Tools, now Coordinate. Epic is totally creeping in.
