Fearless and Inventive: Discuss

I'm rock hard for the 'build your own k fighter' title. I'm going to default to 5 points on engine autothrusters and vectored thrusters I think.

I'm excited for the starviper title but sad that lt. Lorir is even less special now.

I can wait to see the full impact of harpoon torpedos and the 'harpooned' condition card.

Too many thrusters

Both those tittles look absolutely nuts.

Vaskai is going to make TBC an utter monster.

Starviper Mk.2 looks really fun but do we have more Starviper tittles coming in the box? Virago being unique makes me think there may be more not yet revealed.

Pretty much what I was thinking for the Vaskai, assuming you mean Vectored Thrusters :P

Yes that

The real question is.....

How can we put mindlink on these?

Pulse Ray could actually be pretty good on a Vaskai too. Gives it access to regen and a 1 straight. With room for 2 more mods you can still make it a dodgy little git.

I'm 90% sure the ps4 pilot copies another pilot's ability. The 2x condition cards, one discussing pilot skill not changing and the other looking like it says 'mimic'

With Vaskai it makes mindlink 0 points. That'll be interesting to see the backlash...

Star Viper was my favourite for a long time. It getting Lorrirs ability in a reasonable way makes it my undenieable favourite! K-Thing to be the first ship able to combine EU and ATs is exciting.

I haven't been looking forward to an expansion this much in a while.

Oh and fricking Harpoons!

Meep. That's pretty scary actually.

I know we were tired of toilet seats dominating the scene, but this is not what I had in mind.

Is it? then why not drop 1 PS and 1 point?

Black sun enforcer (25)

Starviper mk 2 (-3 points)

Pulse ray shield (2 points)

total 24.

Yeah, that's actually better.

This is going to blow Scum list building WIDE open.

Also: new StarViper generic! PS5 is higher than the Vigo. Guessing probably EPT generic, probably 28 or 29 points. Yes please.

So a StarViper w/ the Virago and MKII title and just thinking about Adv Sensors. IT CAN GO SO MANY PLACES!

Harpooned condition :

When you are hit by an attack. If there is an uncanceled crit result, each other ship at range 1 suffers 1 damage. Then discard this card and receive 1 facedown damage card.

Rest of text is blocked.

Ion discharge:

Too much text is blocked but my guess is when you receive an ion token, choose an enemy ship at ?? Range. If you do...something with the token happens. Either pass the ion token off or both ships get the ion token.

Either way it looks to combo nicely with the pulsed Ray shield.

I bet the "K" fighter gets hit with the NERF bat...... After folks have purchased 5 each.... just saying.....

Genuine question though: other than 3 AGI, what does the StarViper EPT generic for presumably 28 or 29 have over the Black Sun Ace with VT, AT, EU?

Posted at

So, it looks like the two other condition cards are tied to the ps 4 unique Starviper pilot, name starting with "Th". Both of the non-harpooned conditions name check "Threek".

A better looking ship? Right now the only things I can see are the s-loop and bank barrel rolls.
