I do love this community.

Discussion on PSR turns into a back and forth about the TLT lol.

Indeed. And not only did we get the inevitable derail, but SabineKey's motives for trolling the TLT Nerf thread became abundantly clear.

It'll need some testing but I'm not sure that telegraphing the 1 forward is such a huge problem. Sckys want to snipe at range 3 anyway, and if they've managed to get a good engagement, getting the shot on them without getting ioned by their mates might be tough - and that's assumign they haven't ionised YOU anyway.

The list I'm thinking of running (though I'll need a fourth Scyk, words never before spoken XD) is Inaldra, Genesis Red and 2 TPVs, all with Mindlink, Ion Cannon, Heavy Scyk, Pulsed Ray Shield. Sure, I telegraph what I'm doing if I use PRS, but I get the choice after I already know whether I've ionised the key ships on your side...

Yeah, the Scyk seems like the best choice for the PRS all round (unsurprisingly, given that it's packaged with one). StarVipers will probably still get more mileage out of Autothrusters, TBC will prefer the repositioning.

I definitely think PRS will prove good value for player who put the time in - it's going to be one of those upgrades that really shines in the hands of a skilled player.

One reason I'm really looking forward to it is that I got a LOT of practice with Mindlink Ion Scyks just after the Heavy Scyk errata - so I've got a lot of confidence that it's a list I'll be able to make work.

And it's telling to me that one of my most common statements when running that list was 'WHY DON'T I HAVE A 1 STRAIGHT AAAARGH'.

hmmm does this mean we may see a return of moldy palob/mux?

Definitely does with me

PRS is more evidence to me that the Kihraxfglqz needs a two point on modifications. Give 'em a free jank regen or barrel roll and you've got something going.

Haha yeah I'm most excited to see the Rebel HWKs make a comeback though

As a guy who routinely flew five Kihraxz for over a year, I'd take than deal all day long.

Question is are we able to use PRS even if we don't have to regen shield. That would give use white one straight move for ships that needs them like Heavy HLC Scyks etc.

Maybes we get -2p "whatever" tittle for them one day here. I would take it any day. Soon as I saw Kihraxz article up in FFGs news page I was 100% sure that I will be buying five of them. So beautiful and cool ship!!

5 Kihraxz is gonna be replaced by 5 bombers with unguided rockets and LWF

No it's not.

For 5 Bombers with Unguided Rockets and Lightweight Frame you need to buy 5 Bombers, 5 Strikers and 5 Aggressors (is it Aggressors that come with UR?)

For 5 Kihraxz you need to buy 5 Kihraxz. And you get five copies of Crackshot into the bargain.

No need for five strikers, aggressors comes with LWF (and yes, they're the ones with unguided rockets)

We let friends borrow ships and cards here so it can be seen

To be honest I still think 5 Strikers beats both...

But four Scurrg H-6 will be so awesome! Fill them with four 1p Scum crew, like Greedo, Zuckuss, 4-lom and Boba Fett! That sounds so much fun! Four ships with 3 Attacks, 5 Hull and 5 Shield..

Almost certainly will work. FAQ for similar effects have consistently said you can pay a cost even if you can't Regen the shield.

Per FAQ about Miranda, and about Garven with R5P9, yes.
