I'm just going to leave these here

Corran Horn with Expertise perhaps?

In meta with Kylo Ren Determination will be your EPT of choice on Corran.

Way to expensive if you fit him with FCS, Engine Upgrade, and R2D2. Thats 18 points in upgrades on an already expensive ship. yes, 1 more point that PTL, I get that... but that one point can mean a lot

You use Rey and Veteran instinct on Norra. Not PTL. It's pointless to make 2 action unless have vector thruster.

I had an Engine/BB-8/PTL/Kyle Norra used against me VERY well the other day. Couldn't catch her enough.

So the blind guy doesn't need his eyes?

This is almost as good as Finn, the storm trooper who's ability is to miss.

I am kinda sad that absolutely nothing in wave 10 synergizes with Finn

thought for sure FFG would throw us a bone outside of pilot Rey, there

Eventually we'll get a Rebel ship with both crew and tech slots, which will allow you to use Finn with Weapons Guidance and Expertise for only 11 points!

K, if thats legit, thats probably the first 4pt EPT thats good.

Long as you arent stressed, offensive focus w/o an action. Thats pretty dope.

Probably find a way to slap that on Vessery and either barrelroll or keep his focus for defense.

Bidon = merc copilot that works in a range worth bringing. Interesting. Slap him on Ten Numb and laugh at your crits!

a man can dream

I think it is a smart card design. It is a powerful card but costed fairly and restrictive enough that it isnt too power creepy and doesnt buff the strong current meta ships.

I think Rebel Han is the big winner here. Decent with Rey, but goes to PS8. Norra will definity like this and I think scum will be able to do some scary things since they can get a free offensive focus and Dengar/K4. Doesnt help imperials too much aside from possibly Decimators and maybe Defenders (tho i suspect they will be too expensive with expertise).

Rebel Han likes this for sure (higher average damage than with Predator using his native re rolls), but i'm not sure this brings him back into the meta. He is still way too expensive for what he does nowadays. Plus rebels are hurting for decent wingmates in the mid to upper 30s range (save for Norra, but she dies too fast without Biggs).

I'm thinking the U-Wing may be our 30point wingman.

el Heffe with FCS, Jyn and Jan/cass might fit the bill there

obviously title too

Bistan + Merc Co-pilot anyone?

No...?

You sure?

Ok, so it's not worth the points. And DEFINITELY not worth the 2 crew slots. But maybe some day if there is a 2 crew pilot that just needs crits no matter what.

Had Merc Copilot been 2-3 you might have seen him more than....never lol.

Theres just no reason to sacrifice a valuable crew slot to get a crit at a distance where your opponent has higher odds to dodge the attack to begin with.

If it was focus to crit, different story. Then its at least adding damage.

Welcome back to the PWT w/ Engine meta again.

yes, a bit worried about that. the winners with this card are clearly Decis and Falcons :/

I am replying to this after only reading the first page, so sorry if this has been mentioned before.

Whilst this does bode ill omens for the return of PWT's, it could also mean the return of stressbots, Braylen etc.

Nah, you laugh at anybody bad enough at math to bring that 34pt piece of garbage to the table. WOW, this Ten Numb only requires 6 Attacks at R1-2 to kill a TIE Defender! He's amazing! So broken!

You laugh, but honestly, there aren't many ships that can take out a Defender one on one in 6 shots... But ya, Ten is overpriced. Nothing new.

Still no updates on when it's officially available though? I guess that means it'll be available in a very limited way (probably America only) at some point this week. Bit disappointing but oh well.

Rac- expertise,gunnet vader,hotcop,engine

Ryad-x7 juke.

Perhaps.....perhaps

...

RAC wouldnt want this. His ability already gives you a focus mod. You'd get more out of Expose w/o the EI than you would with Expertise on him.

Horton.... wait... never mind.

I prefer Predator, personally.

Horton.... wait... never mind.

R2-D6 gives him an EPT.

With Expertise you just want to free up an action. But for what? You rarely need a focus action for defend for a y-wing. And you don't need a target lock with Horton. Therefore, if you don't have EU, vectored thrusters or action bombs, maybe Marksmanship is the better (and cheaper) choice here.

But Kavil with vectored thursters and Expertise + Autoblaster can easily hunt < PS8 Defenders with 3 undefendable attack dice. 33 points worth it to have an ace and defender hunter (with unhinged mech)

Well Poe is now gone. But holy cow that is a permanent focus. I'm going to see some Flechette weapons in there to pump on the stress.

Who wan'ts Whisper with Expertise?
