Still going to stay with Imps, I just find the bullseye more interesting/rewarding than infinite missiles/torps.

I get why it comes with jam tokens...but what would the weapons disabled tokens be used for? Have i missed something?

One for Reload, he other is a mystery.

It also has an extra shield and 2 extra stress...

Yeah it left enough totally obscured (normally you at least get enough edges of the text to speculate) cards that I kind of wonder if the text on some of them has even been finalised.

Unless they have magic teleporting ink that can insert itself into packets which are in containers on a boat in the pacific, I somehow doubt it...

The extra stress is for Contraband Cybernetics - you need 1 for it, 1 for the red, and potentially 2 for the actions you do with PTL and EI.

Oh yes of course, reload! Silly me, thanks

It must be said that model does look a 1000% better than i original thought.

Nope. Still butt-ugly:

The engine is good but the rest... goog.

Hot ****, I didn't realise they were on the boat already. They're not messing around with delivery on this wave, are they?

It's like someone tried to turn a Romulan Warbird into a drag racer.

(I'm kind of into it... though it does need more colour)

Since the first week of October, yeah. They're going for the movie date I suspect, so we should see articles more or less every week between now and then.

The only thing I wonder is where the trashmech sits. Or is he internal?

That engine is begging to be stolen and stuck onto else.

And the colours make it look like something Tau from Warhammer 40k.

Will probably be the ship that gets me to attempt painting engine glow. Begging for a repaint in some not bud tugly colors. Might even be the first ship I actually mod the plastic. Gotta cut off those PVC pipes and put on something that actually looks like guns.

Just wait for the aces pack

What is going on with that firing arc? No way is that lined up properly.

EDIT: This one too:

Not a mistake. I think this is how they're supposed to look

Mu0n! You need to fix Vassal again!

I feel like there are a lot of similarities in the design of it and your avatar...

Im more excited for this then the gunboat even as a primarily Imperial player. This thing is going to tear apart big base ships.

It will also be great for Epic. It will be easier to bullseye in a target rich environment.

Both the aces I can see a use for; am struggling to think of something for the generics. Granted the article has only been out a hot minute at this point.

It is reaching a point where first few waves simply need a re-release with new dials and completely reworked stats and abilities to match more recent releases.

We are playing XWM 2.0. It's just not an official thing. Like the b-wing e2 not being listed as a title. So yeah, we really need waves 1 to 3 brought up to speed.

Would be nice to have a mega update box for the 1-3 ships.

So, this article I see a lot of complaints that this ship will be hard to use, is seemingly balanced in terms of abilities, and not everything was spoiled. What the ****?

We were very lucky with the gunboat article to get everything spoiled for us, dial, all the pilots, reference cardes, titles, etc. Considering the demand for that craft it was very gracious.

Now, as to the ship being hard to use.. deal with it. The deadeye mechanic seems really good, and lining up a shot to take effect of it should be a challenge. Having a terribly broken ship leads to a bad play experience for a lot of people. But a ship that is tricky to use and really only shines with a skilled player? That is good for everyone.

as I've said in another post; i think the ship will be good paired with a couple of Tractor Beam wielders
