Well then. Might be a front-runner for Condescending Statement of the Week.

Sry if it sounded rude but its true... you are gimping yourself if you bring an Imperial build at a major event at the moment. I dont see anything previewed that would change the situation.

Sienar-Jaemus pilot (29)

-Autothrusters (2)

-Title (2)

-Collision Detector (0)

Well, it's an ace/point fortress that can deal with Nym's wingman 1v1 if it comes down to that. If you can build 50+ points of list that has a good shot to take down Nym with Kylo's help, then you're in a good spot.

The silencer should combo well with the upsilon and its coordinate action, plus support abilities.

Sure - if you want to spend a bare minimum of two thirds of your list just buying the two chassis.

You know what the Silencer reminds me more of than an FO Advanced or Interceptor? An Imperial Starviper.

Think about it.

• Comes with Autothrusters
• Has access to a Systems Slot
• Is WAAAY too expensive
• No Evade
• The lower PS pilot has the more interesting ability (assuming I'm reading that right. If he get's an EPT slot he'll be VERY compelling)
• The higher PS pilot only really works when he's operating as part of a larger group

With the Bomber I kind of recognise that at least they didn't put a Crew slot in there. So you can't run Crimson Leader directly with Sabine.

What does the lower PS ability say??? How can you see that???

TIE Silencer is costed like a Starviper pre-Guns for Hire.

I think he means it is more interesting in the sense that it is not Kylo's ability again.

Probably accurate. Rocking +1 shield, native system slot, tech slot, and way better dial, though. Also PS9 with EPT slot open.

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?

actually yeah. Deathrain throwing bombs out the front at speed 5 is gonna be fun.

Kylo Silencer is gonna be EXPENSIVE: 35 + 3 PTL + 2 Title + 2 Auto + 2 PA + 2-4 Sensor option. 44+ Super Ace.

Sadly only ever gets 3 attack. But it'll usually be TL'ed have huge movement options.

If bombs go 1-forward->[token]->5-forward... that'd be 7 base-lengths... Turn one proton bombs?

They'll hopefully come out with the Resistance A-Wing

So hopefully never?

Somebody helps me. Didn't we have an expansion with a method for bombing (for a mission or something) in the pamphlet where you did drop a dial bomb as usual *and then* it would move 5 forward? Which expansion was that? Does anyone have it at hand? How it was called? Launch? If that's the case, we already know how it will be done.

imp vets.

I hate how they dare to call the bomber a B-17 and make it look like...that.

the K-wing has those beautiful wings that make it look more like a bomber than anything.

I'm going to enjoy modding that garbage bomber design.

For you, maybe. For me, I would like it sooner rather than later.

Why sooner? Just for FFG release them with only generic/made-up pilots and stats and upgrades all wrong?

We are just going to call that thing the B-17 right? Can we agree on that at least?

Why waste the points on Deathrain when a generic can fling them out the front for cheaper?

Welp that resistance bomber is ugly.....

Dont see any reason to buy it either...

Wheres my resistance A-Wing???

Why do you care? Your words indicate you don't want it.

barrel roll. like a certain scum pilot that's unpredictable...

I'm still calling it the Nebulon-B-Wing.

Because Deathrain can use it against the Fairship Rebels while beating all of them on pilot skill.

No. And the Trajectory Simulator is just the Norden Bomb Sight.
