TIE Silencer and Rebel B/sf-17 preview up
YES!
PS9 & SYSTEM UPGRADE & BOOST & BARREL ROLL!
VI, Advanced Sensors, Primed Thruster, and Autothrusters = 42 Pts, 44 pts with 1 time Def Dice re-roll title
So Emo Kylo Ren. So Emo.
The key question....does the PS7 pilot have an EPT for VI to fly with RAC + Kylo Crew?
Advanced Sensors for everyone! Also.....more conditions......plus this little bit of madness,
No Imperial droids though...
Ooo, more Autothrusters!
Not looking forward to what I am sure is another brick of a dial on the Resistance Bomber.
Can the new Trajectory Simulators make the TIE Punishers worth flying?!?
No, probably not.
Also, who here is excited about two copies each of Autothrusters and, especially, Primed Thrusters?
Why is the TIE Silencer $30?
That TIE Silencer...is going to be a real pain to kill.
3/3/4/2 statline, with autothrusters, and a title that lets you reroll all your defense dice (discard to do so, but still...letting you take another shot at that inevitable once-a-game total whiff is...epic).
Just now, RogueLieutenant said:Why is the TIE Silencer $30?
That had better be a typographical error.
Again, imperials get a ship lacking options. Atleast this time it has a sensor/tech so it has strong ones....right? *staples FCS and PA to it* nvm...
That ship will never have options. Its expensive as **** for effectively a 2x durable TIE Interceptor w/ a TLock built in. Unless that new tech is insane theres no way anybody would put anything other than FCS+PA+Autos on this thing, EPT being the ONLY variance and even that will get solidified eventually (see PS Wars in a theatre near you!)
And Kylo still has his "hit me i dare you" ability on a ship that cant take a beating. Could have atleast changed it to the same timing as Rebel Captive (declared target)
No droid/crew slot for BB9E..wat?
Doesnt even have a random missile which is a staple on practically any TIE that isnt a Fighter, Interceptor, or Striker. Course at its price dunno if i'd want a missile.
Meanwhile Rebels get another super-bomber that looks to stack wonderfully with miranda+sabine. Just what we needed *cough*
Trajectory Sims outta be fun on Deathrain though...muahahhahaa!

Eh...look at the size of the mini compared to its base.
It's nearly as big as a U-Wing...

That was my first thought when I saw the bottom. It's on a small ship stand.
Silencer looks like a Large-Base ship sized model, on a small base. Comes in a large-base box...
Also, I dislike that the Resistance Bomber doesn't seem to come with any named crew. Rose and Paige are action figures in Target, why can't they be on this ship?

The new tech looks like the focus token version of Comm Relay, which could be quite usable depending on cost.
edit: Also, yes, Kylo's pilot ability is garbage on this ship. This had better have an insane dial to be worth the points, I'm talking large based Scum junker levels of insane dial.
Edited by HolySorcererKylo Ren is the pilot I need to complete a Red Blades list with Inquisitor and Vader
Can I say I appreciate the fact that one of the Target Locks in the TIE Silencer is a "T T"
... Go Cry, Emo Kylo...

FINALLY! I've been wanting to try 5x Alpha Sq. Pilots for so long, but I only have 2 copies of Autothrusters, and haven't been keen to buy 2 more Starvipers. Well, now I can buy this, and maybe buy just one more Starviper. So good!
The resistance bomber looks pretty underwhelming so far. The card right under Ordnance Silos looks interesting. Title? Looks like it references "Resistance" something or other.
Edit, the title must give out the Rattled condition card somehow. Which is basically Sabine in a can.
Edit 2, looks like a modification for the ship called Deflection Plating or something. Another Rebel ship that is going to be a pain to kill?
Edited by gamblertubaAdvanced Optics on Poe, guys.
Kylo looks freaking OP.
Not sure why the silencer title is worth 2pts.
Its Predator with a hyper-active Lone Wolf like restriction, only it looks for enemy ships in firing arc rather than R1-2 bubble. Thats pretty hard to get early/mid game. On a ship that can take FCS anyway.
The discard half of it also makes you reroll all defense dice. So you cant even use it to solidify a defense against a particular nasty attack by only rerolling the blanks.
Kylo has PS9?!???!
Nuh uh.

How's that again?
Not near enough to revive Imperials...
And no munitions slot on the Silencer?
Lol Soontir got powercreeped, but the game design looks good. I like the discard against blank dice.
The bomb hurler is fun, but the turret is not lol. All in all, an okay wave.
Also the first order gets the SS target lock. And the TT for crying Kylo
Edited by FrightfulCommandTIE Silencer is looking interesting. Expensive, but interesting. Gonna enjoy playing with that bad boy.
the Bomber...let's just say it may be a pass from me. *sigh* I wanted that A-Wing.
