"borrow"

One of the upgrades on the Kimogila looks like saturation something (saturation fire?"). Sounds like something to fire all of your missiles / torpedoes.

Is that maybe 'Linked Battery' on the Gunboat? Shows a picture of green and blue fire so maybe something that lets you fire both primary and a cheap cannon like the Tie/D title?

Or maybe it's an ordinance firing at the same time? Either way could be fun.

apparently, reddit squinted out something about the title letting you use 2-point or lower cannons even while you have a weapon's disabled token

if so, beware. Major Greendice may also be a Fabulous Flechetter!

Looks like Bullseye uses the width of the range ruler to determine its effects. Interesting.

Yeah I'm very keen to learn what the Bullseye arc entails. My guess is that if the two vertical lines in the arc both connect straight out to your target's base, you roll an additional attack die. It would make the Kimogila appropriately brutal, since it would be hard to dodge those lines at Range 1.

Didn't someone say it would be some sort of beam that will affect all ships within the narrow arc and certain range (or was that speculation also)?

Perhaps that's what the multiple jam(?) tokens are for??

Oh that's fair. I had figured the multiple Jam tokens were due to the Scrambler missiles possibly having an AoE effect. Plus the Gunboat comes with two Jam tokens as well, right? And it only seems to have the Jamming Beam weapon, but I don't know what all the cards are in th spread.

Years ago I made a comment about wanting a smaller inner arc that would convert eyeballs to hits. That would still be an interesting mechanic, I think.

A bullseye is a direct hit, right down the middle, dead center. I could see an attack against a ship inside your bullseye arc making one of your attack dice unable to be cancelled.

Where can i find pics and info!?!

Ed - found some images noice!

The Assault Gunboat PS7 guy: Major Vynder: When defending, if you have a weapons disabled token, roll 1 additional defense die.

The unknown action is Reload, probably an "assign a weapons disabled token and turn up a used torp or missile card".

EDIT: Ninja'd

Would make sense: Advanced slam+reload...

Well, considering how big of a part Maul played in Star Wars Rebels in Season 2 and was pretty much the main villain for Season 3, it's not really that much of a surprise he'd show up here in X-Wing. Especially in a ship from the show.

I case you want to see them

Still kinda wish it was in his ship from the show, the Nightbrother.

Interesting... Very Interesting... The Gunboat comes with 2 Cannon upgrades, and one or two titles. One is "Jamm [...] Bea [...]" "(Jammer Beam?) and "Lin[...] Bat[...]" (Linear Battery? XD) Pretty sure one of the titles makes you have a Cannon upgrade.

The Kimogila seems to me a veeeeeeeeeeeeeery strange ship. But I love Savaged Astromechs slot, They always remember me the moment when the Jawas sold Unkle Ben a red astromech and it started to crash... so... more SA is more fun!
