Silly upgrade idea, because I heard you like EPTs

By DagobahDave, in X-Wing

Full of Surprises; elite pilot talent; 1 point; Your upgrade bar gains 2 [elite pilot talent] upgrade icons. You cannot equip 2 of the same [elite pilot talent] Upgrade cards. You can only equip [elite pilot talent] upgrades that cost 1 point.

What's the most broken thing we can do with that?

Something with the A-Wing, probably, as you get 3 ETPs.

Tycho with Wired, Rage, and PTL

So what you're saying is ... you get an EPT with your EPT, so you can EPT while you EPT?

Well, it would be limited, that was implied, I assume.

I imagine BroBots would be a good candidate for something like this. Some combination of Crack Shot, VI, Wired, Attani or even Adrenaline Rush could be quite effective. Would mean shuffling some other things to free up an extra point, though...

One would almost always be VI...

That would be... redundant? :) It's "limited" without having to say so, because of this line:

"You cannot equip 2 of the same [elite pilot talent] Upgrade cards."

Illegal move! PTL doesn't cost 1 point, so you couldn't do that. I don't think Tycho would be overpowered even in that configuration, though, which is a pretty good "stress test" for this card. Haha.

You take PtL from A-Wing test pilot, and the other 2 from your idea.

Still breaks the wording on the (theoretical) card.

I... actually really dig that. Would almost want the restriction to be for one-shot EPTs if there's a way to word it for that. So Crack Shot, Adrenaline Rush, Cool Hand, and Lightning Reflexes only unless more come out.

Being able to take a "free" VI would probably be broken, but this would be a great way to encourage more usage of the one-shot EPTs that don't see much use. Would maybe be able to waive the 1 point fee as well.
