I'm so glad Supernatural got destroyed while Quad Phantom just has to "downgrade" one ship to Duchess.

Hi it's me a scientist, quad phantoms is at 204. You can remember this because 1+1 = 2 and 2+2= 4. Don't ask me to prove 1+1=2 though, that's a whole thing.

aPoliteCanadian on Reddit made a Google Sheets version of the changes. Some of those are surprising (to me).

Or just change one Sigma to crackshot. It’s totally not juke for a turn.

But it's just one time, there's no way that's worth it at all /sarcasm

I gotta say though, I'm impressed with how deep they were willing to change the points, I did not expect that at all. Good for them. (I should have bought 2 extra Upsilons, to be That Guy (tm))

Supernatural got Luked.

There are some randoms uncalled discounts across the field and some notable going through unchanged (Wedge)

Were you expecting a cheaper or more expensive wedge?

Or just 3.75 juke phantoms.

What's one evade dice among friends? Just have the 4th with no talent and have him shoot first. Stick him up front give your opponent some decisions to make.

Are you really asking me this question after I spent so many posts arguing he's one the best rebel pilot?

Sure he lost his buddy Jan, ProTorp got more expansive and probably there will be less Bobas and Whispers around, but ps 6 with a good ability at 52 is a steal

don't expect this every time there's a points change. They said this one is big because it's the first one.

Because the game is so new, this first one is a doozy.

Jamming Beams on Tripsilons. You know. For the mirror.

You're welcome internet!

How effective is jamming beam against UUU?

Jamming isn't Hyperspace legal. Not sure it is worth using Jamming beam since you give up the opportunity to just push damage through. It's only 3 dice attack and with reinforce, it will likely only strip 1 or 2 tokens off. Not enough to really help on other shots or stop the offense of the other ship. You'd need 2 shots to try to strip all tokens, but then you have done no damage compared to whatever damage you do in return.

3 E-Wings with Proton Torpedoes... good? trap? if only they could reload...

time to run off into the sunset

God dammit @Brunas. This is why you never admit things that bugs you right?

Haha, that's why I was double checking! You could have been upset that he didn't get cheaper to match Proton Torp getting more expensive, or one of many different arguments!

It's a 4 dice jamming beam on a Upsilon. Knocking out a reinforce and a focus might be worth it. Worst case, it's a free upgrade, just don't use it for anything other than scare factor.

Now if there's a shot that doesn't matter because it can't change points at the end of the game, you can disrespect 4 die jam something for the last shot! Style points!

Isn't style the only reason people play this game?

YASB is updated guys.

If you print your list to bring to the store, it also identifies the date of the points update used. Should help avoid problems of using older printouts that may be outdated.

What are sleepers that were just woken up?

• Leia at 2points, Lando at 2, or a cheaper Tarkin at 6,7th sister at 9, Palpatine at 11, 5th brother at 9. Are these now ok or even good?
• Rebel YT1300 got massive reductions, they look very good now.
• I'm looking so forward to composure +outmaneuver or lonewolf jake at 43 or 42 points!And greensquadrons with prockets are 39. Hmmmm, 4 of those with Jake might be something.
• Bwings might be worth another look, previously they felt as if they are almost useful. Not with the 10pt squad leader now, but some other build.
• I don't care about Y-wings, K-wings or the VCX. Also not about the Gunboat, or TIE x1/v1 and Defenders. Don't know why, but at the moment... eh, 2 points down does not change what I previously saw as not good enough. For example, 7th Sister + FCS for 48 is still I4...
• Could afterburner vader be someting for 71? Right now he's 70...
  • 5 Tempests+FCS are probably playable. But here the point applies that I had made in Krunch's thread on generics: who will buy 5 advanceds and put in the time and effort without knowing whether that's worth it?!
