I agree it'll be good, I just don't get the "I win" button reactions.

because hyperbole is more interesting than a measured response? It's definitely high up on the list of things i think will be 'gud'

The new TIE Hyperbole, now in delicious red flavour.

Nah, it's the new format alongside Hyperspace where only trip ace regen/force lists are permitted.

This is a crazy long thread. Just caught up.

ALSO I figured out how to beat Fenn in Hyperspace

Sad Fenn Rau

"Static" (33)
Proud Tradition (2)

"Scorch" (33)
Proud Tradition (2)

"Muse" (30)
Proud Tradition (2)

Omega Squadron Expert (34)
Squad Leader (8)
Mag-Pulse Warheads (6)
Passive Sensors (3)

Omega Squadron Expert (34)
Proud Tradition (2)
Mag-Pulse Warheads (6)
Passive Sensors (3)

Total: 198

Squad Leader is for Static. 3 crits at R1 behind Fenn is sad. Mag pulse crits are sad. Proud Tradition crits are sad and he can only remove focus once. Take all the stress you want; Muse can ditch the one you don't want to blue your way out of (or just keep and focus through anyway). If it's too much (and if you'd prefer to shoot most of your Proud Traditions out after the Mag-pulse goes off) you can sub in Longshot for Scorch.

Just sit waaaaaay back and have fun at R3. He'll love you for it. Other Fangs will hate it too. And if Fett's leaning into Maul instead of PerCop, you basically just get to keep Proud Tradition all game! The only Fenns this won't murder are the ones that go with a full miniswarm, which is pretty unheard of.

Also a 2-pt bid for 1st player vs other I3s and for 2nd player vs other I4s.

Hyperbole is the adjective people use for him against droids. He's good, but his ability works only on offense. Just gotta arc-dodge, which is not difficult on this chassis in the least against droids and their reluctance to bank. Dial in a bank, and there are no wrong decisions, especially with Daredevil (of course, in a vacuum, you have to be only slightly more careful when considering the other arcs). His ability is the icing on the cake, just like Vonreg; people will take the TIE/baby Yoda for its ability to knife fight like this at its initiative level:

Also, because FO is FO and therefore holds a general correlation between the quality of a pilot and the edginess of said pilot with a callsign or another fake name like "Kylo Ren", the I4's name is "Ember".

Will people play Republic and Separatists now that they've "lost" so much?

They should. Obi-Wan went up by a single point. CLT is actually a pretty viable upgrade. Wolffe is decent. Broadside is good. Jedi knights went down.

Maul still exists, Bomber swarm could be good, and nothing wrong with 8 vultures.

only question is will the players open their wallets to make swarms? Answer is probably yes.

I'm afraid the Separatists will be quite operational...

I'm also sure the usage rate of Dooku and O-66 will go up A LOT in Hyperspace.

What’s wrong with Maul?

Super appealing after the buff...

Nothing in particular, but that Dooku and O-66 are cheaper and easier to fit more vultures in a list which is part of the Separatists power. We've already seen Dooku do well in AUS SoS and just theorizing that O-66 w/ TA175 and 7 Strut Drones is also a good buy.

Oh definitely, I just haven’t bothered looking at them to much because I rarely see them.

I think O-66 will be seen more since the droid is 12 points cheaper than Dooku, and their the same pilot skill. Although Dookus pilot ability is lucrative.... idk

I can't decide if 3A2X is better than 5a.

Also 3X2A.

Also 4X1A.

How about 4F3A? It’s an easy count to 200.

edit: no wonder it’s 1300 pages, the days it moves this thread goes quick!

Not to call people out, but 4 hour krayt cast feels shorter than hour and a half liberty squadron without BoomOwl.

@Boom Owl, @Brunas

Okay, I can buy Proud generic fo's over fanatical....

But now I'm truly conflicted.

With both at 2pts, when would I ever take Fanatical?

People keep putting it on SFs and Silencers, but it was literally made for FOs, so....

Help me out here.

I've mostly been putting Crack Shot on my SFs, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Proud doesn't make a tonne of sense on Silencers to me, since with their pilot ability and blue moves, I just don't think the opportunity to use it will come up often.
