I like mine better. :/

Your Door Gunner is interesting, but I would make it a (limited) Crew and much cheaper (1 point). And only working outside your firing arc.

Good idea on the door gunner both arc and cost. One thing I'm trying to figure out is a way to not allow the door gunner to shoot out the back. Door gunner should only have side arcs but that would be hard to do without printing a new ship token for the U-Wing. I thought about a movable arc like the Shadowcaster. It could slip over the peg on the base and rotate to either side.

I like some of your cards as well. The one thing I thought was missing was a re-positioning action added to the action bar. The X-Wing NEEDS barrel roll and I'd LOVE to also have boost but Biggs haters would have a stroke if Biggs had access to Autothrusters.

X-Wing could shine if they were deadly as jousters. I see no reason to give then re-positioning (which wouldn't make sense to the lore, even).

How would barrel roll not make sense to the lore? I saw several barrel rolls in Rogue One. Also, in several books, the x-wing is portrayed as being more nimble that's what's represented in the game. We didn't see maneuverability much in the OT because of filming technologies.

So... question: do you guys print these out? If so, what do you use? Regular paper or is there card stock that works?

I use 8.5" x 11" photo paper. Matte or Glossy, doesn't matter, but higher density is best.

This is my template. I use 300ppi when exporting from Strange Eons.

To me this always looked more an Aileron-Roll.

Reference .

You're right it's not quite a barrel roll, but look at how far off the screen they go, for reference, they are doing more than an aileron-roll.

An Aileron-dive-roll kind of, which to me is like a half barrel roll. It doesn't have to be as wide as your image suggests either.

There's too many of them!

x_wing_miniatures___custom_modification_

Based on this idea .

Awesome!

We don't know all about the ship yet, but here I am transforming my custom Assault Gunboat expansion into an "Ace pack". (to be later submitted to the Custom Cards League)

Pilots:

x_wing_miniatures___custom_gunboat_pilot

Upgrades:

x_wing_miniatures___custom__ace_gunboat_

Need about 2 more upgrades. I was thinking in at least 1 new <system> to go along with the new title. Something like "Cargo Scanners", a "System Jammer" or even a mini "Gravity Well Projector".

Can't remember the exact wording I used (and am to lazy to search for it :P ), but I've suggested on several threads to give an X-Wing a fore-up reinforce token if it's head to head with 2+ ships at range 1-2.

Would give it the survivability it needs to be a good jouster, and won't make Biggs insane (because you really should be able to get out of arc of a PS5 with an average dial).

Edit: Here it is:

Reinforce for the X-Wing? Oh no. Anything that helps Biggs is bad, IMHO. X-wing should get a help for offense, not defense.

I guess this was inevitable... :ph34r:

Arajen Turmen should say: At the start of the Combat phase, choose 1 other friendly ship at Range 1-2. Until the end of the phase, increase that ship's pilot skill by "2."

The "G" in XG-3 Customs Configuration should be lowercase to match the "g" in Xg-1 Assault Configuration.

(System) Optimized Weapon Cluster

  • After performing a Reload action, if you did not overlap an obstacle or another ship, you may perform a free action.

(Cannon) Heavy Mass-driver cannon

  • Cost: 6 Range: 1-2 , Attack: 3 , If this attack hits, deal 2 facedown Damage card to the defender. Then cancel all dice results.

Noooooo!!! (Insert Darth Vader meme)

Although now those ships are in X-wing as Imperials, I wouldn't mind they being canonized, even if as First Order refits in the new trilogy...

I'm gonna put this here.

Hmm... you would need a new ship maker with lines for the bullseye... :/

Anyway, why making it linked with reload?

That's the Shadowcaster Rotate Fire Arc action.

And better a single ship marker than remade baseplates for every pilot.

Oh indeed!

Hmmmm a single ship marker? That's not how FFG operates, right? Besides, out of arc bullseye feels off. But as always, I like you idea and will try to adapt it to something else.

Single marker per upgrade, anyway.

And the card says the bulseye can be placed anywhere INSIDE the fire arc.

Oh, a bullseye marker, just like the mobile firing arc of the Shadowcaster? Hmmm now that's really interesting.

It is, isn't it? Problem really is that you need actual cardboard for it. And very precice one at that.

My quick & dirt version of the DX-9 :

transport_pilot_front_face1_by_odanan-db

Comes with a dial even worse than the Lambda, a title that lets you do Reinforce actions in you frontal firing arc, a "heavy" ion cannon (takes two cannon slots) that gives 2 ion tokens and 2 damage when hit and some double crew cards very powerful against epic ships.
