That leaves 54 points, and that means now Inq+fcs instead of Soontir I guess.

Why the sudden Inquisitor love?

Adv SLAM doesn't synergize with passive at all. But Inky does look good in the list. Even if you keep Torpedoes on all the boats, you can afford him with some points to spare.

Exactly what @skotothalamos said, use them on alternating turns.

Not so sudden, more a ship I‘ve had my eye on since 2.0 dropped. I think 7th sister night be something. And now that I‘ve played so many Jedi games, I appreciate force much more than before.

And Inq has been one of my ships since 1.0, so keeping that eye out comes naturally.

LCQ ticket acquired. Care-o-meter for GenCon performance dropping.

I’m not sure I’ve ever cared overly much at GenCon.

7th Sister was borderline good at 46, I was really surprised to see her go down to 43. I don't normally run upgrades on her but she seems like a good platform for Sense.

Question for the day

does it count as poor sportsmanship if my immediate response to someone asking to share dice is to hide all my actual dice and pull out the dice app?

Ew. Don’t touch my phone, you filthy gamer. Here, these are core set dice and a bowl of rubbing alcohol to dip them into.

Is it against any rules to coat my dice in hand sanitizer?

Depends if you use enough to cause respiratory issues for your opponent. Though if your using that much you probably have larger issues than a minor germ phobia.

Advanced Slam is “Perform an action on your action bar”

Passives ain’t on your bar!

not with that attitude

When will FFG provide passive modifiers as actions on the bar?!

You also get stressed, so passive sensors as a red action would be a massive flex

I was fooling around with Passive Gunboats yesterday and got a Damaged Sensor Array on one of them after popping Passive earlier in the turn. Very Sad Gunboat.

So Tie Swarm.

Best Hyperspace List?

Yes or No?

No.

I keep hearing this, what makes her a good platform for sense? Just cheap platform and never going to use her ability?

Matchup data for wave 3 hyperspace seems too noisy to be useful, but of the squads with higher numbers of games, 2jedi2torrent, rebel 4ship, rebel torp run, and first order 3ship were the swarm's worst matchups.

The first is basically dead, although pieces of it live on. The second probably still exists in some form but is like 20 points less efficient or something. The third and fourth were technically nerfed but realistically didn't meaningfully change if people still want to run them.

She loves R1 and is super hard to shake once there, where Sense is free. Getting her into range safely might require not spending for Sense beyond that, so priority is pretty much the other way round for me.

Still, I love SNR on her, which really shuts her ability opportunities down, so....

It all needs some planning and management, which is a good thing, because it's all pretty great.

Unrelated. Went to an Extended store tourney yesterday, with new points. Lists were all over the place. There were 2 B Wings and 1 U spread across 3 out of 18 squads. It was awesome.
