I'm bored at work, I eventually tired of watching the new trailer over and over, so let's speculate on Arquitens titles and why FFG kept them hidden.

Holy c**p, I didn't even notice that until now

Probably because, so far, there isn't actually any Arquitens of Note in Canonicity... So its 'unimportant' as such, and best revealed with a full exposure in 6-8 weeks time.

True, but as we have seen with the inclusion of the GSD, the Raider, the E-wing, the VSD (not sure on this one), FFG doesn't care one whit for canonicity.

Its more the fact that we wouldn't even have a clue as to what they would be called, because like stormtroopers, the only ones we've seen have been nameless and exploit-less (unless you consider being blown up by a B-Wing with a Prototype Superlaser as an "exploit of note")...

So they're going to be based on awesome mechanics, rather than names of note... Which means they'll leave them for surprise come the end.

Was far more important to spoil the Admirals, especially Jerjerrod, as he is a "Fix" admiral of note.

Fair enough, I just wanted to start a conversation about it.

Oh, all for the conversation - I just don't know where to start...

I'm flabbergasted with how good it seems baseline, I don't know what I'd want to do with it, to improve it with a Title that wasn't crossing over ground already covered.....

I think the only thing I would consider first of all, is an ability to spend defense tokens while at Speed 0... These were designed as picket and blockade ships for merchant traffic after all... parking and shooting seems appropriate....

Well, look at the names of other Imp ships - they kind of fit the personality on the ships.

Arquitens is a quick flanker. How does that translate?

Edit: of course, now we get interesting interactions between Ozzel and the suggested title...

And now we have a clash of Role-as-Designed-in-Universe vs Role-as-Designed-in-Game

I think they will be called:

Redrum

Rellik

Like my 2 MC30 Scouts.

I'd like to see a title that gives it a second turbolaser slot. Really double down on some red dice shenanigans.

Greeblehauler

Maybe an Ozzel title? "When you resole a navigate command, you may change your speed by an additional one"?

Edit: of course, now we get interesting interactions between Ozzel and the suggested title...

Noooo, you give rebels an Ozzel ship title, and give imperials a madine ship title... minimises overlap

True, but on a different train of thought, sticking with the flanker idea, how about this?

"At the end of the round, if you are beyond distance 5 of an enemy ship, you may gain one command token"

Too powerful?

On a command 2 ship? Nah. If its beyond distance 5 then its out of place. Becomes quite a bit more potent if it has an engine techs slot
