So, this will be in stores soon, yes?
Very nice!
I might simplify Vangos to "you may suffer one damage to remove one shield token from that ship". Saves you four words, but I understand the intent of the original design.
T-65AC4 should say "your ship" not "that ship".
I LOVE Datchi! I would fly that ship ALL the time. Ions are great, double-tapping ions? YES PLEASE!
Tractor Bean Turret sounds interesting, possibly VERY annoying, may need to cost more.
Finally, K-2SO? More like K-2YESO! He's my favorite droid, and I really like this ability.
Overall, a very good collection, thanks!
Nice work on the presentation! A+ for style
Be warned!
People might think you've actually leaked an upcoming release. Some folks don't read.
Target Acquired doesn't work as written - the 'you' would apply to the ship with the condition, not the player who assigned it.
Turrets usually have one fewer dice than their cannon equivalent in addition to limited range. Tractor turret is *probably* fine as is, but worth a note.
Similarly, your x-wing title doesn't need the words 'that ship' - the title applies only to the ship that has equipped it unless it specifies otherwise, so just 'gains a weapons disabled' is fine, but it would rarely be used.
Otherwise, seems pretty good.

My comment was meant to be humorous and salute the quality of the work. Just making sure we are on the same page.

All very good points! I think I'll have to update some of the wording.
As for the turret, IMHO the tractor beam cannon is really only worth 1/2 point, and I consider this to actually be worth 1pt.

Again, all great catches. I'll try to update some of the cards wording to be more clear and concise. Also, glad you like them!

Oh yes.
In my own odd way I was complementing the quality of the work too.
Technically the T-65AC4 upgrade doesn't work, as their are no T-65 X-Wings in the game. I would recommend changing to to say Rebel Alliance Only. X-Wing Only. Otherwise, good!
The Xwing title is interesting, at first i was thinking "Oh boy here we go another title to give the T65 the T70 perks" then i saw the weapons disable token. Good way to go quick if you cant attack without giving you a "boost" action, since you dont want it on the joust.
No idea what i'd do with the Ywing title. Ywings w/o a turret? Wat?
Only real complaint is 1) i think K2SO is WAY too powerful for all 3 actions and no stress cap. Outta give him the "if you have 3 or less stress" comment. And 2) i think Datchi's ability is outright insane. The way its worded lets him fire his own ion turret twice if the first one hit and it wasnt baffled off. Perhaps add "another ship" to limit how often it goes off, but its still pretty dang potent?

I caught that, but on the Internet you never know.

I'm glad you like the X-wing title. I think it could really do a lot for the ship.
As for K-2SO, I concur. It is not super abusable, as most Rebel ships dont have a great way to get a lot of stress that dont also benefit from doing green moves. For example, K-2SO on Norra with R2-D2 is basically useless, she's pushing every turn, but also always doing greens anyway. But I agree, I think a cap of 3 stress is perfectly reasonable and prevents real shenanigans. I'll add that on.
Truth, right now theres no real rebel way of abusing such a mechanic, since majority of their crew slots are either dependent on boost/barrelroll actions or dont even get stressed to begin with.
But, not putting a cap on it opens the doors in the future for such a build. Do we really want to potentially add
ANOTHER
D20 stress tracker build to the game?
Hey! Leave Tycho out of this. What'd he do to you?
I updated the X-wing title, K-2SO, and Target Acquired per some of your great suggestions and catches. Thanks for all the feedback.
Very nice expansion. All very thematic and well made. I especially like the T-65AC4 card, it gives an S-Foils card without a dual card.
One thing, maybe you could have a crew cost reduction for the S3. That way, people can't just spam the title, but if they actually equip a crew, it's not as expensive.
All in all, great job!
Suggestions:
X-Wing title: reduce attack power by 1 or 2 instead of weapons disabled. One on the main flaws for X-Wing is keeping sights on enemy ship. They'd finally get some repositioning ability on the cheap, but then they lose the capacity to shoot, that's a bit unfortunate. If you'd reduce their attack by 1, they still get at least some potential firepower. Reducing by 2 would mean they still get a weak 2 dice atk and you can keep the card cheap. I'd mostly use this to block ships, though.
K-2S0:
Performing instead of taking?
