So I'm playing in the Greyskull Narrative campaign on Vassal. I suggested banning Harpoon missiles for the next time around and well....

"I guess my main point is the following: PS5+ EPT generics are essentially aces in the Grayskull meta. And only two out of three factions have access to those. So if I'm playing as imperial/scum player and I'm facing rebels, I can know that I have the PS/EPT advantage, and can formulate my tactic accordingly."

Lets just say I showed them the darkside. tactic accordingly.

I worked around the EPT issue on generics at GenCon. Pair of Grey Sqdns with Targeting Astromechs, Guidance Chips, Extra Munitions and Proton Torpedoes. One flew in all four rounds, killing opponent fighters at will. It gave me the ability to push the throttle and control the range before unloading nearly perfect results. No duds at GenCon, but it's prone to happening.

Hey, I never said it was good,

but I asked myself, can It be done?

And since I wasn’t creating dinosaurs, I thought I’d be okay.

Some of us are trying to be loud but really can't accomplish much.

Not only that, but krayt comments are proven to be much more true.

Silencer will end up on the ban due to time period... It's First Order not Empire.

Man, this just sounds like "no fun allowed." That hits most of my favorite ships/pilots.

This can never be allowed to happen! GUNBOATS ON TOP FOREVER!

Wait, I just added to the Krayt thread post count, thus making myself part of the problem...

Curse you, Krayts!!!

I took me a moment to spot the difference. I guess I just mentally automatically put Krayts on top.

It's a story-based event set in the Rebellion timeline, so it makes sense actually. Particularly... Why is the Emperor guarding a munitions supply depot? How did Kylo develop time travel?

But yes, somebody always has different sets of favourites. The drafting of uniques though is cool, as is the only one life a named pilot gets... They get shot down, they're gone.

I think he has, but I can never tell him and Jeremy apart anyway.

From my initial games PS11 Aces are genuinely scared of a properly flown PS9 Kylo. The "you don't have to move last to win" comments are real.

I may believe you, but I think the subset of players that can properly fly him to accomplish that is so small, it's like trying to find Waldo.

Haha, dont think to much of it, its basically just alot of flying away and re-engaging in better spots like all ace stuff. Only have to do it for one maybe two turns then everything is PS0 anyway.

Yeah, I super don't believe you now. Kylo isnt Biggs, I don't have to shoot him. If I do, it's probably because he's dying.

Optimism. I like it. I'll continue to bring more than two ships. Rebel ships. With guns. And arcs. And munitions.
