Rex's first name is Captain.

beats "CT-7567" any **** day

rex is a veteran from the clone wars (both the war and the TV show), though, and he made an appearance in Rebels (which apparently qualifies him to fly Sabine's Tie, but not an ARC ) just like Ahsoka

Yes....but the ARC-170 is the retro fitted one that is only in the Galactic Civil War. Rex is an old guy by the time the show is around. He doesn't do combat flight anymore in a snub nosed ship. So, he shouldn't be allowed to fly it. It goes to show that it's NOT a Clone Wars ship brought into the game, but a GCW ship that also happened to be used in the Clone Wars. It doesn't matter that he flew the ARC-170 in the Clone Wars, as it's not representing ships/pilots from that time period.

oh, I don't care about the whole era thing (ie Clone in a Clone War ship; I really couldn't care less about continuity like that). the thing is captain rex is alive and relatively well during the civil war that the game takes place in.

He is, therefore, almost as qualified to fly the ARC as Norra/Shara/Thane/Braylen, apart from the fact that I don't think he ever flew a ship (he's an AT-AT kinda guy)?

but he's getting to fly a tie fighter...so?

and I like this game's ARC a lot more than this game's Tie Fighter, so I'll take any excuse to get more pilots for it

Yet they let him fly a yellow TIE Fighter.

It's a 2 attack ship that constitutes nearly a third of your list and has no special tricks on offense or for control. Why is anyone even going to bother shooting at it while there are other ships on the board? Why would you spend even more points on Biggs to keep that ship alive?

I never said it was good, or that I'd run it in a tournament list. I said that it was awesome and a sign of the end times. I stand by that.

What about TIE plus Jan Ors and Poe (or another X-wing) with Comm relay?

I can see a bunch of T-70 flying towards you with permanent evade tokens. Sounds fun

I think that Sabine with PTL, Nien Nunb crew, and targeting computer or shield upgrade is NOICE .

Every time I see a Sabine TIE post I die a little bit.....

This is beyond silly... but it is a ton of fun to fly! Too bad at the end of the day it's still only a 2 die attack, but man is it funny as hell.

That's why I take this build with Finn and Lone Wolf. Not a 2 dice attack anymore!

that may actually work...

Sabine actions: decloak, evade, boost, focus, target lock from Shara.

Swarm leaders with full mods for 6 dice

jebus...

Thoughts on Sabine with Intensity EPT? She does a boost/barrel roll before movement, takes a token, performs her dial movement and takes the other token as her action... all for the low, low price of 17 points.

add in cloak and stygyium and she can move anywhere plus get a free evade!

Very tricksy, though starting to get a bit pricey for my personal likings. The whole reason I don't fly Imperials is even hiding a TIE Fighter behind a rock, at range three, while cloaked will result in an equal number of blanks to rolled green dice.

Ashoka +VI+ Sabines masterpiece + Rey + Captured TIE+ EMP Device = 24 points.

Ps 9 that almost always gets her ability off, and can banzai charge the enemy and ion them with no repercussions. (Ion is a one trick pony though)
