Do we think the the starviper will see anymore table time with the new title, guri is still 27pts and for 1pt fenn rau is a much better ship,,I believe the khirax fighter will make a comeback but I still think the starviper is overpriced, thoughts

I agree. I really like the Starviper but it is overpriced. I am really looking forward to the new stuff for the Khirax. I think it will see lots more table time when it is released.

I'm honestly not convinced it's enough of a discount, but we'll see.

But then, I also think Fenn and probably Teroch are a point or so overpriced, so...

Now, I could be wrong and the PS is still pretty low, but: The new title, old title, advanced sensors...... Doesn't that create a near Echo like unpredictability. Not sure what else to expect from the pilots, but I personally think this will be the Fix. Probably won't see a swarm of them or even to generic pilots competitively, but I think we should expect Guri and Xizor to start showing up

It makes a lot of unpredictabliity, but only at PS7 max, so it's not too much of an issue from that perspective.

I agree the PS problem is still there, would be nice if the new pilot was PS8 or maybe 9, and adding Vet.Inst. eliminates PTL for super mobility shenanigans. So, yes it's not perfect....

I agree, but I'm holding my overall opinion until we see the 2 unique pilots, there abilities, and their costs are. I'm guessing that we'll have some options that are a little nicer than Xizor's ability. None-the-less, Guri in a mindlink list is still feasible with the lower cost and the unpredictability of that barrel roll.

Fenn is really 2 points more since you aren't running him without the title. Fenn will still be the better option, but the SV has two advantages. The Virago title gives you access to the System and Illicit slot. You also have that 1 shield to protect against crits getting through.

I'd run both. This looks pretty nasty:

Guri (30)
Attanni Mindlink (1)
Plasma Torpedoes (3)
Fire-Control System (2)
Black Market Slicer Tools (1)
Autothrusters (2)
StarViper Mk. II (-3)
Virago (1)

Fenn Rau (28)
Attanni Mindlink (1)
Autothrusters (2)
Concord Dawn Protector (1)

Old Teroch (26)
Attanni Mindlink (1)
Autothrusters (2)
Concord Dawn Protector (1)
