[Elite Talent]: Snap S[hot]

After an [enemy ship]

executes a [maneuver,]

you may p[erform an]

attack a[gainst that]

[ship if it is in your firing]

[arc. You may not attack]

[again this round.]

If this is right, then I feel that this might be a pretty important card, esp for low PS pilots who would get a chance to shoot high PS pilots before they can token up or boost/BR. TIE Phantoms would also love it for the ability to recloak before the combat step.

I'm terrified that this card will be a discard EPT for 1pt. It's much too good a card for that. If you don't have to discard this card after using it, it's a total game changer, if it is a discard...it's probably on par with crackshot (it'll still be good, but it won't be a massive game changer).

The real shame is it's an EPT, which means the ships that will use it are the same ones that already are competitive and using Crack Shot. Can you imagine a Black Sq swarm with that upgrade? Just wild. Meanwhile, generic Bs and Xs are as bad as ever.

Yeah but it could still allow a few more mid PS EPT pilots to shine. I very much hope it is correct and does not discard. It could be PtL levels of game changing for many ships. Might even see more enhanced scopes to be able to have actions before your free attack. Negative PS bid?

Throw on VI so Omega Leader, Inquisitor, Brobots, Party bus, PTL Norra, ect cant touch you. Sabine Maserpiece for BMST and Jan Ors or Kanan Jarrus.

Ahsoka text is almost certainly wrong.

There was a prewiev on the Polish distibutor's site:

Ahsoka:

wydać 1 ż[eton] ...

Przyjazny ...

on wyk[onać] ...

At the start [...] [you can] spend a [...] token [...]. Friendly [...] he can perform [...].

Looking at this, I wonder if Ahsoka can spend a focus or evade token to allow a friendly ship to perform a boost or barrel roll? Would be pretty sweet.

I can't find anything on the spanish distributor about Wave X, so no luck from this side.

They do have Heroes previewed though, correct? It is really, REALLY tiny though it seems, and everything that is in the fan with anything visible is already pretty clear anyways in the English preview.

That second TIE title is quite an interesting mechanic. 1 point you reckon? Also, I assume it is unique?

There's only 1 title. The Captured TIE upgrade is a modification. It is unique. Unless there's something surprising in the abilities of the unspoiled pilots, I think it's only going to be worth paying points for if you are also taking the title with a crew or illicit upgrade that you want to be able to keep on the board for a while.

Thanks for the clarification!

OK, so now I am seeing some use out of it.

Roark for PS 12 springs to mind, as does Black Market Slicer Tools.

Any chance we will get an edit in with the new ships previewed? Also, what about HotR? Would love to see you squint at that as well ObiWonka!

Is the thumbnail being so small supposed to be a metajoke?

Bravo, if so.

That meme should never be posted any other way.

or just VI ahsoka to PS 9?

depends on her ability ofc, but running around invincibly just to discharge ion tokens seems troll enough to warrant a flight

Hmm. Ya, didn't even think about that. You could just walk the opponents last ship off the board, couldn't you?

Well, its discard, so nevermind. BUT, you could have Sabine crew, Ion bomb, and THEN EMP (or vice versa). It's a lot harder to tell if ions 2 turns in a row will take you off the board. Seems pretty nasty to me.

I think invincible Ahsoka would work well with BMST and maybe Rey if she indeed has a support ability that requires her to spend a focus token.

They would usually use the wording 'allow' rather than 'make' a friendly ship to do something.

So what about Gunboat upgrade cards? Especially the elite skill card, has anyone been able to squint that?
