"Han must discard any equipped illicit before declaring target for an attack or after defending"

It feels so....fluffy.

First Order Test Pilots should not be compared to Interceptors as the Evade to Target Lock switch makes them fundamentally different ships.

I disagree

Sabers rarely evade. FOTPs rarely lock.

So pretty much only Hyperspace Trials aren't Extended format, right?

Worlds 2019 has a 'reveal' on the 28th.

Already prepping the architecture...

Oh wait... Doesn't matter, I ain't going.

Rebels must field Caption Rex

Imperials must have Turr Phennir

Scum must have Quinn Jast

Resistance must have Jaycris Tubbs

FO must have Longshot

So it is a meme format after all, I'm in...

That kinda stacks things in our favor doesn't it?

For what it's worth, not enjoying beef and enjoying han doesnt mean I think han is "okay," or that "beef," as a general archetype, shouldn't exist.

I'm just tired of "playing around" leia, and the rebel lists are really efficient PLUS leia, so you just go "welp, they basically can't NOT pick one of my ships, so I lose one... let's try not to lose two!"

It's ~25% of the meta in both formats, but at least in extended I get access to things that are "better" at dealing with rebels and fits my preferred playstyle/approach to the game.

These list unironically make me wish SNR was not expensive, because their [the beef lists] efficiency deserves it, even if the game itself doesn't.

Republic must fly Kickback (because someone would have to be bribing FFG, so here'd be the hint), CIS must fly DFS-081.

All in all, Turr Phennir seems like the least-bad (in this sort of joke-world). Due to the rules, every faction will have at least one ship which is below Init 4...

🤭 It's expensive?

In terms of general enjoyability though, I've been preferring extended (I can't believe I'm typing that). I'm not sure if it's less one dimensional, or just feels less one dimensional because phantoms are more interesting than tie swarms.

I'm flying Republic these days, so the format doesn't really matter to me. From a perspective of "how much fun will i have today?" I prefer extended because there's a more varied experience from game to game. The puzzle of how to approach my opponent is more interesting than "did they bring Beef or TIEs or something I can joust?"

Rexler Brath, Advanced Sensors, Lone Wolf, Heavy Laser Cannon, Homing Missiles =106

2x SNR Inquisitors = 92

3 token stacking mad repositioning ships?

I don't think it's good, but I'm not sure how not good it is. I guess I sorta like the idea of a hypermaneuverable pocket aces to deal with beef and a bruiser. This is sorta the reverse of an ace-Miniswarm. Mini-ace + high grade beef.

Well now I want 2 v1s.

I dislike playing against beef. I kind of have a hard time against it but I don't find it overpowered or a particularly glaring NPE or anything, it's just really boring. 2pt Leia everywhere adds a hint of annoying to the flavour.

Oh and as such, I prefer Extended. More tools to fool around it with.

Cannot wait for the v1.

Panic? **** no! DROOL!!!!!! Spacers are going to love this.

That Autoblaster seems way more fair than the 1.0 Autoblaster.

Unless someone makes a monster Boba with BT-1 that flies with 0-0-0 4-LOM and just makes it all crits or something

I felt something die inside me when I saw Autoblasters were coming back.

Looks..... Ok......

Still feeling unsteady about it.

That just sounds cruel... You monster! We were just thinking about nice, wholesome Scyks

They definitely make Autoblasters crap on 3 dice ships but really solid on 2 dice ships, which seems cool.
