Would Linked Batteries have been broken on large ships?

It could work if it was Imperial only. (instead of small ship only)

I know! That's the downside. :(

I disagree on IG-88 being the real issue - they already had access to predator for flexible rerolls, and FCS for 'whoops, missed, face another with full mods lol' as it was. It's more attractive on non-88B models, and even then, it's... fine.

No, I feel it's, ironically enough, probably the firesprays. Yeah, they had access to rerolls in both ept and crew slots before, but my money on the 'nope, gotta nerf' being

Kath + opportunist + tailgunner + linked

... For a 6-die, agility-reducing, focus-and-rerolls buttlazer of doom.

It's a silly build, but it's the only one that really strikes me as off-putting.

That actually looks like it would have been a fun build, but it would still have been shut down by stress and requires the opponent to have no tokens. It's hardly a Rey/Kanan/Finn Falcon, is it?

Maybe we could try it on vassal or in a scenario with the house rule that firespray can take linked batteries to see if it was broken.
