What if it would say Scum and Imperial only? Would that be over powered with Kylo and Darth?

Then I'd use it.

Really, there's so many things that should be Imperial (lore-wise), and would help them, that need to be opened up to them

Kylo + Boba would be utterly broken.

Boba may have been allowed onto the deck of the Executor, but no captain in the Empire's navy would ever allow bounty-hunting Scum like him to actually crew one of their ships.

Bounty hunters! We don't need their scum!

Only if the scum can have Rebel Captive and Iceheart...

Rebel captive + Lats crew? No thanks

I'm not sure it should work with Kylo or Darth. Boba requires the Face-up damage be deal as part of the attack unless I'm misreading it. Considering that Kylo, or more specifically ISYTDS, doesn't work with Maarek I'm not sure if we can say the "attack" is dealing the Face-up card to trigger Boba; I guess it can be said that the Face-up card came during the attack thus triggering Boba but I think this would be a grey area than would need further clarification. Vader's ability isn't an attack but rather something that happens to get triggered by an attack thus it certainly would deal a face-up card during the attack to trigger Boba.

Now RAC may have the open crew slot and be pretty reliable at generating criticals but how many Imperial ships could carry Boba crew? Two shuttles, Firespray, Decimator, and Phantom; maybe the Phantom could use him.

Yea I could see it definitely working for Kylo, but Vader would be iffy.

Honestly, if Boba wasn't Scum only, he should have no restrictions. He's in it for the money, not the ideology. He's done jobs for Rebel characters. Same with other Bounty Hunter characters.

The thing with boba. Is that if you're apply a crit against a hull, the ship is almost dead anyway and you you're doing ok. The only ship it's great against is the falcon or decimatoe

decimator. But I'm keeping the mistype.

The ghost is another big one, Miranda too since she can regen.

OK... RAC gets to range 2 of say Hera Ghost. First shot of the game you turn an eyball into a crit. deal what ever crit you like, then use Boba to kill the TLT. Still has 5-6 shields and has taken 1 damage. Now you tell me if that's not broken....

Only works if Kylo is also onboard, has assigned the target ISYTDS, and the eventual ruling on the interaction says that it will work.

Besides, Boba with the right missile can already do the same thing.

That may all depend on the ship but there's no real question that Boba is most effective against with a lot of hull that needs upgrades to be effective. On some ships that first card a ship takes is really the last card that matters no matter what follows.

Given the hypothesis that Boba can be Imperial, why cant he fit on RAC?

If your build is designed to remove your opponents main upgrade, why wouldnt you assign them the card? Also with there being a lot more 2 ship builds it makes it a lot easier. And what ruling? Boba clearly states when he is activated, Kylo hands out a face up card, whats there to question?

When you are getting blinded pilot and a removal of an upgrade, tell me what missile does that?

I don't see why not, there is no shortage of Rebel and Scum only stuff. I feel like the poor Imperials are getting teamed up on. There should be more Imperial crossovers in X-wing.

Yea with all the Biggs, mind-link, and TLT running out there it's a way to make those list work harder to win.

Yes, sneaking crits under shields with the addition of blowing up an upgrade on top of that is way, way, way too good.
