Yeah, we've gotten all the lists in that were in BCP. The rest were pictures of rocks (dank)

~100 phantoms in the tournament, almost all of them in the upper half of the standings.

On one hand, sad reacts only. On the other hand, Jake is in the final

I'm so conflicted

advanced censors token stacks or boosting large based turrets with double mods... who should i want to win?

They told us to take a picture of our rocks because they had no way to record them, when you went to “update list” it gave xws, text, photo, but didn’t warn you anything you upload (no matter which category) overwrites anything you had previously.

Dank.

"Effective immediately, Sigma Squadron Ace..."

1.) Nothing, they'll wait until July
2.) Loses the talent slot
3.) Goes up to 51 points
4.) Some other fourth thing

Also, Imdaar...

Its probably based on an NPE thing more than a winning thing. Does quad phantoms count as an NPE?

Re: Fortressing: I'd be interested in trying to get people to enforce it more aggressively, because you know, I came to play.

They'd have to amend the tournament rules. Currently as long as one of the ships in the squad is moving it doesn't qualify as fortressing.

**** I hope not. It already is priced out of use for most other ships...

so many juking phantoms. empire and rebels mostly. 5 other factions 3 other factions weakly represented.

Sigma Squadron Ace is still a bit cheap. Turns out 3 with Juke are still really good. I suspect the 4th ship could be just about anything and those 3 Sigma's would be able to anchor the list.

3 other... the new stuff wasn’t legal

I’m shocked. Who ever would have guessed?

FO, Republic, and CIS are going through adjustment, as FO is still reeling from losing triple Oops, and the others arent even legal;also new people haven’t had proper time to work out kinks in the list. I wouldn’t expect the latter 2 to start popping up in large numbers until May.

Resistance I have no idea, T-70s and Rz-2s are solid.

Scum is arguably the weakest faction at the moment, very few are going to fly them at a tournament where the grand prize is a spot at worlds.

1) Yes, this squad isn’t an NPE.

2) No, 4s definitely all need a talent slot.

3) This might happen due to most other Imp option just OK or meh in comparison; if so RZ2As and T-70s will as well.

4) Juke needs to stay where it is. Pray the Defenders get a solid points drop....and watch the salty tears start without reason 😂

It's almost like easy access to triple mods (focus, evade, juke) are really strong. If only there had been an entire edition worth of testing to show this...

So is SNR and yet people don't complain about it being too expensive.

Probably true though that can mean a lot of things. Either way, in 2nd edition, as I mentioned in my above post, it feels quite out of sync with a lot of the rest of the ships in this edition and doesn't fit the design tenets. Sure, the defender can get there, too, but it's significantly more expensive.

Different critter. SNR makes a high Init force talent nearly uncatchable. Juke enables an Evade token to act as a soft Jam... Getting free evade tokens while having Juke is the issue, not Juke itself...
