Wave 12 Announced!

By Engine25, in X-Wing

Hyped!!!

Edited by Tbetts94

Two new cannons which is interesting. More fun for TIE/Ds!!!!

And the rule card says "Reload Action" .

Edited by Sithborg

Not sure but I think Advanced Slam has more lines than it used to.

Wowsers

I'm generally a fan of th large and goofy, especially stuff like the K and SCURRG

But this? This is a **** ugly wave

Except the gunboat. Acceptable wingspan

the new icon is clearly a "reload" action. the reference card is right there in the spread.

That's what it looks like to me.

It's bullseye.

Not what the rules card says.

The Phantom II also can carry a Team from epic.

Most likely the FAQ edit to stop it being used when crossing obstacles.

This is true.

If it is indeed reload then we could have the attack wing "action to flip" munitions.

The new action looks like a Recycle type icon...its two arrows pointing at each other in a circle. Usually recycle is in a triangle form but same idea.

Perhaps action to get discarded ordnance back?

There is a new rules card in the back of the fan you can make out the title of - 'reload action'

I imagine that's what it is.

Also, for the whiners, Sabine isn't a pilot of the Phantom II. So far, it appears to be Fen Rau, Ezra, and Zeb.

Phantom2 has an aux arc....crew/droid/ept....

What is with the rebels getting these odd support ships? Do they want to bury the uwing even more? lol....

PS9 at 20pts. We know that one has an EPT, and this is a PS where this is a viable strat anyway.
BB8 + PTL + Jyn for 27pts. Reveal green for roll, PTL for coordinate (give someone a TL), green move to clear stress, regular move for Jyn which works with all printed firing arcs.

Seriously how many seemingly random mini-supports do rebels need? lol

Happy for the gunboat peeps. The forum activity will decrease by approximately 35% now that it's announced.

Looks like it's gonna be more a Roll a Dice to reload, with a risk of jamming your ordinance instead. Merging both Gunboats into one thing isn't the worst thing in the world, and as much as I'm lukewarm on the model itself, the Gila monsters bullseye arc interests me all the same.

Also: Major Vynder, PS7, EPT, Torpedo, Missile (can add more with title):

When defending, if you have a weapon disabled token, roll 1 additional defense die

No it'll just shift to "NERF THE GUNBOAT OMG WTF THIS THING IS OP"

...or the opposite

Sabine took Ezra's tie, time for him to shine!

I hate to moan but they look awful. This game is becoming unrecognisably Star Wars in design, and I say that as someone who is loving playing it.

The Gunboat is my Star Wars childhood.

I don't hate the Phantom II, but...even seeing it on TV, yeah, it's...kinda lame looking.

The Kimogila, though...holy crap, that has GOT to be the ugliest ship ever to grace the Star Wars license. I mean, that gives Han Solo's Baleen-class a run for its money.

I love Rebels, Phantom 2 is awesome! Gunboat hype! If you don't think any of this is "Star Wars" design, then the game started falling out of your flavor once Scum was announced.

Phantom2 looks like a shuttle from StarTrek, its just a tube-like thing, only it has a fin on top instead of two warp nacelles on the side.

So this is what I understand of the Gunboat Expansion Pack.

Atk: 2

Ev: 2

Hull: 4

Shields: 3

Actions: Focus, Target Lock, SLAM, Reload

Upgrade Bar: (named: EPT) Missile, Torpedo

Included Cards (pre-existing)

Adv. SLAM

Cruise Missiles

New Included Cards:

XG-1 Assault Configuration (mod)

Linked Batteries? (Cannon)

Jammer Beacon/Beam? (Cannon)

Mystery EPT

Mystery Modification.

Interesting that the Kimoligia has a 1 pt, unique title.

Where do you see that? I see an EPT, astromech, and crew slot.
