Add Engine. Boost and barrel roll before you drop a bomb, and then move.

If Nym were native PS9, would PTL+AS+EU Genius Nym have actually removed all things that aren't PS10+ from the meta?

Is it possible to learn this power?

I'm actually not sure if 2 actions +bomb gives you more coverage than 1 action plus drop or launch.

I dont want to see the maps

The bombers are gonna be hard to judge without slots since those kinda make the ship.

True. What if 2.0 Maul Nym can take Advanced Sensors and Expert Handling Supernatural Reflexes?

Couple more weeks. Does anyone have a countdown clock for when the App drops? How far away is gencon in seconds?

Yes? He basically did that anyway at PS 8.

If nym was actually 9, people would still end up running VI for the mirror. We would be in an even darker ****- no longer could you choose "PS or turret", you would have to be solely a turret.

Are we certain the app drops at GenCon?

I don't think it will. they did officially say sept 13. My interpretation (and hope) is that they said that so that way they can set an expectation and people will know for sure on this day I'll have the app. if it's done earlier and ready for public consumption, then maybe it gets released before gencon.

Yes, by a lot. It's another order of magnitude more places you can drop it, and no I don't want to see it either.

They said they're shooting for gencon, but it's not like an FFG promise or anything. Hopefully we get it or like a public beta or something.

no if it was an FFG promise it would still be on the boat Sept 13.

This sort of deserves all the reacts except confused.

I am super sad that they will most likely sell us the stuff at GenCon but not let us do anything with it until a month and a half later...

hopefully they at least give us the points and slots PDF or something

Semi off-topic warning:

I really want to plug Fractured Space. It's a super fun F2P, not P2W FPS MMOG on Steam. It's also like a weird amalgam of FPS and strategy, because your characters are so slow moving because instead of people, all the things you're moving around and shooting with are capital ships. Please come play it with me. I played my first game of competitive Fractured Space today and my score got around 500 on the leaderboard, so I'm guessing less than 1000 people worldwide play it which is a crying shame. It's awesome.

Also to make up for that off-topicness and keep this thread where it belongs, I want to say that I just got my FFG reprint of the WEG RPG and am looking to combine these rules with X-Wing. Anyone done this before? I'll be crafting rules this summer and hopefully have SWWEGRPGXWM ready to go by the time Real X-Wing hits.

Playing 3 Strikers and Reaper vs 5 XWings last night meant we got to basically play Rogue One for a game. Was fun.

What are your impression playing with or against 5x? My resident rebel swarm player, who almost only played 4 or 5 ships rebel since wave 1 has moved from ecstatic to throwing the list away in the space of 2 tournament because he found them way too much dice reliant.

On a side note, our latest game nights had many of very thematic matchup with reapers, vader, xwing and ghosts around the tables which is nice to the eye and to the roleplayer inside everyone

What kind of impressions are you looking for? I don’t really consider it too reliant on dice. Since it doesn’t have any shenanigans, it is reliant upon good action decisions and positioning, which can lead to more mods on dice.

It’s a good list that could really sing in the hands of a good player (not me). It’d straight up dumpster some lists at list building and I think has a punchers chance in pretty much any matchup.
