Poe buff coming soon!

By rafcpl6868, in X-Wing

The striker and resistance bomber have an upgrade that looks like it says:

Advanced optics:

you cannot have more than one focus token: do not discard focus at the edn phase

And this is better than intensity comms relay how?

Easy PS11 with dial/action wide open? Don't have to worry about blocks etc.

43 points for PS11 regen Poe with the ability to TL every round it can take an action is going to be fantastic.

Edit: 44 points w/ Black One

Can also do Rebel PS10 Alpha strike with a tough lategame threat in Poe:

Airen (19)

-cruise (3) + chips

Wedge (29)

-Adapt + Proton Torps (4) + chips

Poe (31)

-VI (1) + R2-D2 (4) + B1 (1) + Proton Torps (4) + Optics (3?) + chips

Can drop to plasmas for a 2 point init bid

Except you want Poe to be more expensive because he keeps more points. And it's better to go into a fight with evade and focus instead of just a focus.

Going into a fight TL+Focus at PS11 is pretty nice, too. No, it's not as tanky as Comm Relay Poe. No, that's not a problem.
