Man, I hope it’s not 67. That feels like a lazy way of preventing bringing three, with no balancing (like 21 point rookies). How many ps1 tie fighters would you trade for a ps1 defender? Is three a pretty even fight? Then it should be somewhere in the 72 range.

I’m hoping you can’t fit much more points wise than an omega leader equivalent with two generic defenders.

67 was the "lowest likely" number I used. It could certainly be more.

Just listened to (some of) the cast. Not sure if Linked Actions can be selected a la carte like @Brunas was doing with the Supernatural Vader and "THE" Inquisitor. I don't think Linked Actions mean "whenever you do the first action, you can link to the second." I think they specifically mean "you can select this action pair whenever you are allowed to select an action from your action bar."

So I feel like if you use Supernatural Reflexes, you just get the boost or barrel roll from that card, not access to any Linked set you have that starts with boost or barrel roll.

Obviously, we don't know for sure until we have rules, but the difference between Linked Actions and the wordings on Interceptor Autothrusters and A-Wing Vectored Thrusters seems important.

This definitely feels better

It could go either way tbh. There are legitimate arguments for both ways.

Also, Vader can do what he wants

I think this is right. It's not as clear as it seems that linked actions are separate and distinct from the base action yet.

You need to use google docs. Shouldn’t be a pay wall, and anyone can review the results as they need.

Maybe make more options? I know I'm not the only one with an initial guess of 9.

True enough. I guess the thing that felt most off to me was boost-focus, clear stress, evade, every turn.

Yeah, I kind of think it will cost less when the app is first release and more down the road. We all know how... wholesome... the Silencer was and this does the same thing, only better. It's a serious design space constraint on any future ships with force capable pilots and, assuming they haven't already, eventually they're going to violate that constraint and make one that requires jacking the price through the roof to keep it balanced.

Hightend senses Luke is almost as bad as vader. Sfoils and Sense share a timing window so i can pop my foils down, boost/barrelroll (no consequences) 4 straight, regen, boost/barrelroll safe, repeat.

If I missed a discussion in this thread or on a recent podcast I apologize. Have you guys fleshed out any thoughts on small base half points yet? Has it made any considerable changes to your pre-game win condition planning? Has it really affected decision making in-game on target priority or protecting points in late game? Or are you just largely ignoring that aspect right now since we do not have any concrete point values and it's largely just a guessing game?

It's not like they are actually playing with time limits- The games end when chris starts spamming "How long can this go on" and people get bored.

Oddly, half point everything means it's easier to fortress with big ships (relatively)- Half a falcon is still going to be a third of a list.

Well we don't have the tournament rules yet so it's really hard to say. If everything stays the same though: half points everything makes it harder/more complicated to play to small ship points fortressing which makes me happy - but it's actually a buff to large base ships. Half an ace is no longer worth more than half a large base turret.

Just do it like those polls on FB,

Is supernatural reflexes:

Over ten (thanks response)

Exactly ten (confused response)

Under ten (sad response)

Didn't read the question (heart response)

Soontir Fel (haha response)

making people go through another site like Google docs will cut on troll responses, but that's not very krayt

I've been trying to put together a quick site to let people vote so we can have prizes for being close, but haven't had the time. It's not complicated though, shouldn't be too bad.

One of the local stores that does monthly weeknight tournaments we started doing half points on all ships after they announced they were doing so for 2e. Only had 1 tournament so far, but it definitely changes the calculations for who's winning at a given time...
