Hopefully this means we'll see another preview or two today! There's still some unspoiled cards in all those expansions!

Not to forget: The dial of the Aggressor. Again. Why do they ALWAYS leave the dials from the imperial ships out of the Preview??? WHY???

I fear the last one. The excluded it to delay the shitstorm - because the Scurrg has a better Dial. Mark my words! :D

Good God i hope not

Article promised an "extra durable interceptor"

Which i fear is billshit because interceptors aint durable

In the U-Wing preview the talked about the U-Wing having a Lambda Shuttle like dial.

THE LAMBDA WOULD WISH IT HAD A DIAL LIKE THE U-WING.

Since then I don´´t believe their "comparsions" anymore. :D

Highly unlikely. They always leave some cards unspoiled, and usually at least one dial. We'll just have to wait for the wave to come out to find out what the rest is.

They're probably just ashamed to show you the dial because it's worse than the Scurrg's dial, even though the Scurrg is yet another fat unwieldy bomber crammed into a small ship base...

There's also the second Scum Epic ship.

And Veterans of Scarif.

I think whoever was supposed to set the On The Boat status went on vacation a month ago.

I highly doubt the Aggressor will have an Intercepter-type dial (2green turns).
More than likely it'll be your stock "Slow ship" dial. Access to 1fwd, 1bank, potentially 1turn (usually red if they do), all 2s, a 3fliparound move of choice, 3fwd/bank/potential red turns, 4fwd because TIE. 1 fwd/bank and 2/3fwd are green.

Yes i just described a slightly altered SF dial. It is, after all, more likely for a "slightly slower" TIE. Give it a 3k instead of a 3sloop, remove the 1turn, make 3turn white and bam its different enough to not be the "same" dial

Actually, I think a leak suggests that it's the first dial where every move has been replaced by a 5 straight. They were dedicated to trying out something new for each faction this wave, and turning around was so two waves ago.

given the Aggressor is literally just a TIE Advance with less wing and a silly little gun on its ***, I doubt it'll be that slow

To reduce salt and promote optimism my friend.

Yes, mostly the latter on the past two...

Oh, I have been accused of being a constant whiners on this form; if that occurs, I'll actually earn that title happily ?

True, though if they have the manuverability or something close, that'll do fine by most to gain acceptance into their hangar even if it isn't an Ace ship that can stand up in the current red dice meta.

You are a solid in my book and are feeding my pessimism about FFG's Imperial designs of late and love of Scum, but I'm trying to be optimistic on this one.

...we all love underdogs!!

...the Empire is the underdog!!

...come on FFG, give us a super-sweet dial!!

Gotta realize, i primarily play imperials. They can pull some things other factions cant, theyre just not "auto win powerful" like some of the recent scum builds so nobody cares.
Still havnt faced anyone that didnt hate my backdraft's guts lol

. . . or is it?

This is how releases should be. Hopefully they plan to keep this up.

As it is a TLT-carrier, a good dial entails white 3 banks and not much else. White 3 turns would be really good.
