Pretty sure God’s too old to own a computer. We did this to ourselves.

Luke crew will cost 30 points on release, at least that's what the designer at Euro seems to have told to a teammate of mine

No, sadly I couldn't go

Woah. That was even more expensive than I thought. I was thinking 20'ish. We sure there isn't some weird euro exchange rate?

Also, how the **** is this the most sensible and reasonable thread on the main forum page? This should be full of TZM nearly barfing and competing anime gifs.

I'd say it's more a fat turret based counter to aces. The aces as we've seen them so far don't really want a piece of the TIE Swarm, or blocking Jumpmasters, I suspect.

I suspect quad jumpers are going to be really really mean to aces as well. @drjkel at a quick glance it looks like every faction will have access to compotent arc dodgers or good answers to them (or in scums case, both)

I BOUGHT ENOUGH OF EACH SHIP TO COMPLETELY COVER A BOOKSHELF WITH EACH ONE! HOW AM I GOING TO BE ABLE TO CONVERT ALL 300 OF MY KIMOGILAS?!?!?

Maybe, but pricing it that high out of the gates reassures me they do know what it is.

i see it as a positive sign, at least.

We’ll see if blocking jump masters are still a thing. Can’t reposition after turning right, can’t white sloop, battle roll is red, etc. and I wouldn’t be surprised in the slightest to see the scouts lose their Talent slot, which would mean you couldn’t even get expert handling

I doubt it. That’s another cheap ship or quite a few other upgrades you’re losing to get it (or upgrading another ship to a much better one).

I hate FFG photo sharing

So 2.0 joke carcs in the pipeline that are being made-

Coldsteel the Hedgeheg Moralo Eval

Caption Rex

GRAND GALACTIC INQUISITOR

The Zucc

Dash Rendar/Flash Gordon mashup

Did I miss anything? Does anyone have any card ideas?

You've seen those cute little comics of Darth Vader with Luke as a little kid, right? Do those have a picture of Luke riding a bicycle with training wheels? Because a Luke crew training wheels card might be fun.

i want 30000, no less

Wedge Antilles killed 2 death stars, how can he be a pilot in this game? FFG PLZ NERF #Rebelbias #WedgeOP #Firemax #Firealex #Firefrank #Kitpricestoohigh #genericissue #scumisfair #tokenstackingtakesskill #burnitalldown.

At the UK Games Expo and played Alex Davy today. He was doing points from memory (and so am I now) so these might not be exact but

  • Luke gunner is 30 points
  • Dash is 98 base, has both gunner and crew
  • Outrider is 12
  • Base defender is 72 (I think), you definitely can't get 3
  • You should be able to get 3 E-Wings
  • Ezra gunner is 14
  • Miranda is 45, has both gunner and crew
  • Basic wookiee is 46
  • Han is 92

Other things that may not be known (were new to me):

Bombs and mines are now defined types of thing

Fully executing a maneuver is what we thought, rules define partially executing a maneuver as well

No limit to how many tokens you can spend on attack/defense - if you have 3 evades and 3 greens go nuts.

Medium/Large ships decloak using a normal medium/large barrel roll, small ships are a barrel roll with the 2 template.

and then if were assuming Dash is 100+ points you can fly dash with luke crew but that is basically all you are flying.

look at my lovely tie swarm where where your first attack is meaningless and you dont have lone wolf to save you 3-6 times in a turn.

Dash/Luke/Outrider is 140.
