I see more ISYTDS being played now... small ships hate that thing.... Even my Han died incredibly fast once he got reduced to PS0.

Funny, I used it twice and got nothing to stick. RAC wiffed his R2 in arc roll for 1 hit, no focus no crits. And on the kylo shuttle, never got to deal the crit in a timely manner.

ayyy OG swarms.

your green dice must be OP. :)

My Corran has died 3 times due to the stupid thing.

I should say, my opponents green dice were considerably hot the rest of the game too. Reasons why I share dice nowadays. I don't wanna think about dice.

my condolences. you should come play me. =3

literally got 0 value out of kylo crew.

Dormitz throwing a pair of buzzsaw shuttles into the middle of the board, obviously.

I wonder if Flechette Cannon TIE/Ds will see any play from this.

SWARMS! A-Wings, TIE Fighters and M3-A Lights! muahahaha :P

I think a modified party bus with Dengar, Zuckuss, and inspiring recruit instead of 4-lom can still do work. Kinda limits you to two rerolls, but if you can keep on doing green moves then you can use it every turn and get your action.

Somewhat interestingly, Rebel Captive timing now shuts down Zuckuss.

Biggs is still good stuff.

Attanni Mindlink with Zuckuss, Talonbane Cobra, and Fenn Rau. Slap K4 on Zuckuss and you can get three, fully-modded 5-dice attacks at range-1.

I've tried it. It's good, but not broken enough to become a thing.

Do you mind if I give it a run? Normally I don't like stealing other people's ideas but this sounds interesting.

I'm not seeing Defenders being nerfed here. Sure, you have to take into account rocks and blocking (ie actually fly properly), but no nerf.

I like the changes.

Go for it! They're each 29 points with Attanni Mindlink, so there are still 13 points for you to play with and make the squad your own. I actually haven't tried the Mindlink version yet. Instead I had Veteran Instincts on Zuckuss, Fearlessness on Fenn, and Crack Shot on Talonbane.

Swarms still have Dash to deal with...

This Lone Wolf version of Dash isn't such a bother.

Having played low PS ships against this specific variant A LOT (my meta is quite Dash heavy), I can assure you that he's still incredibly tough to deal with. Fully open dial + BR or boost, then full defensive mods from LW and Rey for the one shot he might be taking make him super hard for a swarm to catch.

"Eco Dash" is often flown with Bomber Miranda, which seems like a pretty bad matchup for swarms even if they do manage to somehow kill Dash in a timely manner.

I'm sure it's still tough, but at least he stands where you can hit him!

Personally I'd like to dust Boba Fett off and fly him with Fenn and a second fang fighter or maybe try to fly Kath again love me a redhead

Also, what things got adversely affected that were once possibly decent, but now really not that good?

Is the Party Bus still good after this?

(the Croc will still be good rofl)

Party bus has to kick 4-lom off for running up to high a tab, but welcomes inspiring recruit to the party!

A chick. Nera Dantels. B-wing pilot. Help it's 2am and I can't stop reciting old star wars lore. Have you heard of the tragedy of darth plagueis the wise?

It's a story the Jedi don't know **** about but it's about some dude named Darth Plagueis. He was alright, kinda standoffish and wore black all the time but we were cool. Well anyway this dude could work some freaky voodoo or some **** because when me and him were out hitting some clubs tokin on some bomb ass death sticks we leave to score some more and my dealer got filled full of laser from a drive by blasting and DP seriously just waves his hands and homeboy pops back up off the ground still smelling like burnt bantha. Muthafucka came back to life. I asked him to show me how he did that but he told me he's already got a homie under his wing and I should just stick to finding him drugs. Well I got locked up for possession with intent to sell a few months later and while I was inside I heard rumors that his homeboy straight up murdered his ass in his sleep. Seriously bummed me out cause he was fun to party with and he had this knack with the ladies where they would just do whatever he told them to. What really tripped me out about the whole thing is that he could bring my homeboy back after he got killed but he couldn't bring his own dead ass back to life. It's like, ironic n ****.

There has been an aweakening... have you felt it??
