Kimogila aces DOA?

By Vontoothskie, in X-Wing

So the aces with even modest upgrades are 30-45 points...for a 1 agility ship with 8hp. wont the insanely powerful new ordinance just erase your kimogila first round of combat?

a list might throw 6 attack die first round, but these days its more likley throwing 9-30 attack die first round. Isnt this the same issue the rebels have, but without biggs or regen?

Just like the B-wing aces, the G1A aces, and the Y-wing aces: Look to the generics. The cool abilities on those high-PS cards are just there to fill out the other side of the cardboard.

... Unless you accidentally a Nym or something. :P

They'll see action in custom and epic. I will enjoy shooting them down! :)

Honestly, I think people are okay if they're a little squishy, the PS8 would be way too annoying otherwise - with their very classic Tactical RPG mechanic of doing splash damage in a line and all.

Well - token stripping in a line. You don't take damage unless you specifically decide you must keep your tokens (because you're about to fire a deadeye missile, or something).

Or you play Epic games...
