And can he tell us what the definition of an ace was in 1:0? And what it is now in 2.0?

Because I know who couldn't...

Soon

Will FFG address the issue of generics being subpar in the upcoming change?

Looking at the conversion rates, generic strikers are hanging out at 0%.

Why would you pay 38 for a Black Squadron Scout when 4 more points gets you Duchess? Why would the BSS cost 4 over the (overpriced) Sentinel? 2 init for 4 is crap, especially since any I under 5 is the same.

The Ace Centric meta needs to go.

Yeah pretty much this is what I’m really looking to see, we know they are probably gonna adjust the bad chassis’s and the overpowered ones....but will they adjust generic pilots...I hope so

The saddest tale is the Black Squadron Scout. Paying an outrageous 4 extra points over the already overcosted chassis, the Black Squadron Scout gains 2 initiative. In a TIE fighter, he would have gained the title "Ace". But since actual aces, the vast majority of the meta, are I5+, that initiative does nothing. He has been hammered down by Aceism.

Sentinels at 30, Scouts at 32.

BLACK SQUADRON LIVES MATTER

Strikers are costed appropriately, change my mind.

Strikers are not the same filler ship in 2nd edition that they were in first, you're paying for the bomb and gunner slot now.

Also sentinels at 30 and scouts at 32 means 6 strikers on the board, you wanna break hyperspace, cause that’s how you break hyperspace.

Hyperspace is a stupid format(TM).

when I started messing with Resistance falcons, I looked briefly at the generic but then noticed I could upgrade his Initiative to 6, gain a Heroic slot, and still have a blank pilot ability for less than the price of a Proton Torpedo.

You can already run 5 Striker Wampa.

It's not good, you'll lose multiple before they shoot.

I don't think FFG perceives Ace-wing to be a problem, unfortunately :(

happy new year!

I should just put 6 Strikers on the table anyways. It's legal if I want it hard enough!

the way I1-4 is distributed seems like more thought went into than for nobody to ever use them

Not with that attitude. Also who plays wampa? Academy, Irso,

Howlie, or don’t bother. 😜

Wampa is 30 point Biggs. People HATE Wampa so much that it alters their target priority.

For, 7 more points why wouldn't I take a conditional 3rd dice

I dipped my toe into that thread, then immediately editted and erased my comment because nothing good will come from that rabbit hole.
