I would love to see a rebel lamda version of that card.
Tydrium (aka "fly casual") would only work at range 2

That'd be an interesting way to do the mechanic again for a different ship - and assuming a captured Lambda would probably also have a support focus. Still wouldn't reckon on it though, as the U-Wing is about to get all up in that design space for the Rebels. It's even rebely-er with the Torpedo slot.

That is unless they want to put out an ace like product for the shuttle. If they did release it then we would get another ship for Chewbacca to fly, and could serve as a way to make new luke and leia crew cards, provided they wanted to see the two see more play. I personally would love a leia crew card that was more useful than what we have. But that is assuming the new falcon isn't the exception but potentially a president for future products provided they think it worth it or needed.
Well, the difference between HotR and this is that HotR is refreshing ships which already exist in the faction's space, and including a new collection of pilots and other cards which sync with new movie content (and putting one of those ships in the Sub-Faction). Re-releasing the Lambda but for rebels wouldn't be quite the same - that'd be giving the faction a new ship which in this case something with similar capability already exists in the design space (The U-Wing, with System Slot, Double Crew slot, similar cost and stats, probably some similar maneuverability). The Rebel TIE adds something new and interesting to the Rebel faction in terms of the base ship and it's rebel-only upgrade iteration which makes it fundamentally different from how people typically use Imperial TIEs. A Tydirium pack would probably not be as unique and abilities like Han's or Chewie's wouldn't really be impressive on the Lambda. New iterations of say, Luke or Leia crew are much likely to involve a sub-faction shift for the Resistance and be included with the Resistance Transport for tech/crew utility (or, hopefully the Force will be kind and VIII will have something less ugly as hell to fill that role).
Maybe if FFG can figure out a campaign box for XWM, which doesn't contain new minis but does have new cards and cardboard for certain interesting operations or whatever, that'd be a solid bundle-maybe have thematic sense in the box which carries over to the game.
Edited by UnitOmegaWay before Rebels was a thing I was calling it that this could be a cool expansion. I didn't have the idea for the cool covert "captured" title, but I did figure you could use unique pilots only to balance the fact that the ship is out of faction.
It seems like a natural card to add. New Luke and leis crew would fit perfectly, and maybe even an Ackbar crew. I know he has epic written all over him, but idk if there's a correctly sized epic ship present at Endor (unless fog made an original mon calamari the same way they did the Raider).
My one concern is that the Imperials don't get to join in the fun. If tie and lambda gets shared with the rebels, and the firespray gets shared with scum, and y's an z's get shared with scum, and illicit get shared with rebels... well what gets shared with imperials???
...assuming the new falcon isn't the exception but potentially a president ...
Forget Clinton or Trump...

Imperials could have some of the rebel ships i.e. z-95, arc, y-wing, etc to represent mothballed ships or those in possession of some older fleets which have yet to be upgraded?
Or FFG could go really crazy and release double or triple faction boxes.

Fly casual condition card?
Tag & Bink crew cards?
How about using a Lambda model with the U-Wing base?

If you have trouble remembering think "not preceded by" is precedent.
We had a contest for my podcast that created pilot cards for the crew of our show that are flying a Lambda. There were a lot of funny entries and even one that is eerily close to Captured Tie card.

I'm just curious, would a swarm of rebellion TIEs be worth it since they are only 1 point extra per ship? Is the Z-95 still better?
Aren't there only 4 possible pilots? I think that would be more of a mini swarm. Only one of them would have the Captured Tie title, as well.
We're due for a "Covert Operations" expansion.
We could get the Shuttle Tydirium, Wraith Squadron X-wing and TIE Interceptor pilots, Wedge in a TIE Defender, Lieutenant Kettch in a Scum TIE Interceptor, Soontir Fel in an X-wing, maybe a HWK-290 fix ...

The card is unique.

Imperials are not the sharing kind
But seriously, just like Wave X, the rebels get a repeat model while the Imps would get something new. It really doesn't change the balance, and in a certain way the Rebels get cheated out of a "new" ship.

This one is mine as well from two and a half years ago.
And I almost regret making it, as people have pointed out
that the pilot should be Chewbacca, that's why I made this one:
