And when my list has more than 28 hit points, then what?

Presumably your HP is so high because you're using ships with low agility....so I just shoot your Decimator, or Ghost, or B-Wings, or whatever with my 7 guys?

Step 2: ????

Step 3: Profit

2 upsilons and a decimator actually.

I'd probably back 2 upsilons and a decimator in that matchup.

Oh, are we playing a game where you get to know your opponents list and THEN you choose what to bring? Because if I know you have 2 Upsilons and a Decimator, I bring ships that dodge Upsilon Arcs and have Autothrusters for the Decmiator. Except that this version of the game is silly, so let's get back to the hypothetical posed by the OP. =P

Mm, true.

Hmm, Rage 4LOM and a slicer z swarm XD

Torkil Mux in a heavy hitting squad is bad enough as it is. But when he can sit across the board and let PS2s hammer the crap out of you before you can shoot? No thanks.

uh, Jax denies focus/evades for the whole game.

Pretty sure a naked Jax would be in every game and it would just float around where you cant touch it. Even being down a ship, never having to deal with focus/evades makes your firepower much stronger.

Hrm.

Colzet

Jendon with Kylo Crew and shuttle title.

A suicide charge to get a crit through with a third ship.

Continue flipping that crit forever.

Proton bombs seem pretty ok assuming you're cool with exploding yourself too.

Sabine gets even crazier too. Bomb the deci on this side of the map, kill soontir on the other.

Also, autothrusters stop being range 3 only, so they just work everywhere.

Oh ****, I missed the upgrade part and was thinking we were just looking at pilot abilities. This is just too crazy to even think about much less fully comprehend as so many things have range restrictions for a reason and if taken away they becomes nuts.

The slightly less crazy version where all ranges were expanded one band both ways would still be nuts but at least it would keep the R1 only powers in check even as it let the R3 stuff run wild.

Tactition/BMST scouts and BMST Zs.

Rhymer gets to shoot across the board

I think Manaroo would be pretty good...

Mara Jade, Queen of the Empire, Wrathful Goddess of the Galaxy. That's what would happen.

Flying in jonus's TIE shuttle as carnor jax lets friendlies be very opportunistic with their secondary weapons

Oh god the horror! Throw in a pair of kitted out TIE/Ds and watch the dice fly!

Yeah. Jax is pretty close to the top of the list. Also, tactician. Kanan and Kyle crew are once per turn, but still pretty crazy with no range restriction.

I've been thinking about this even without the limitless range, two Jakku Gunrunners with Proton Bomb and Dead Man's Switch, and four Binayre Pirates with Dead Man's Switch. Drop the bombs and every ship on the board takes two Faceup cards plus six damage, and you have a 12 dice final salvo. Anything with more than 8 health you should be able to primary down first.

Fenn would just destroy everything. Carnor Jax would be nasty as well.

Fenn is an attack/defense related ability, but empire would be kings, and finally win worlds for a second time "excuse us as we confiscate all of your modifications and bonuses"

3x Scimitars with proton bombs, extra munitions, and hull upgrade. And a 4th with just hull upgrade. Hopefully between the 4 of them at least one doesn't pull a direct hit and lives. But anything other than a Ghost or Deci and your 7 hull bombers is guaranteed to die on turn 2 to 6 face up damage cards.

I probably read the title wrong, sorry. I though it was "all non attack upgrades" and "pilot abilities" :-) Yeah Carnor at range 3 would generate so much hate :-)
