Agreed
Courier Droid: Thoughts?
The only thing I see it useful for is a free health on any Imp ship with him and Jerjerrod.
It's simple,

Cheap tough Tomax. Crack Shot Jerjerrod Courier LWF Title. 29 points.
Jerjerrod should really discard the whole face up card, not just flip it facedown.
Terrible.
Jerjerrod doesn't like it much, seeing as it was chosen first to be thrown out the airlock.

The first free crew for the Imperial Navy. Do you think it's worth taking?
It's not bad but I would prefer they honor other greats like Borg and Fedex. Heck even McEnroe would be cool as a droid.
One place im gonna love this droid is on ps1 scurrgs. I fly them with TLT + cruise missile and LRS, and people always setup opposite corner. Now i can fill that crew slot and deploy at ps8.
Other good places are Rex with title deploying at ps8. Or liberator auzitucks with expertise/tactician. Dengar/zuckus party bus can deploy at ps8. Or how about Double Lothal builds?
Doom shuttle only takes up 1 crew slot. So deploying it at ps8 could be vital.
Here's a couple of scenarios.
1. You have 2 decked out Tier 9's and a tier 2 with a crew. You throw courier on the low ship. Your opponent has Tiers 3-7 for a squadron. Bumping up to 8 forces him to place all his forces first and gives you total choice as where to best set your squadron up to counter him.
2. Same as above except you choose 0 against an opponent swarming with PS 1's. You place your fodder fighter and see if he centers his setup on the ship assuming that the rest of your ships will go there. Place your other forces in a position to flank instead.
Second one probably wouldn't work on anything outside of Rebels villains, but 0 points is 0 points.
CAPTAIN OICUNN LIKES, OICUNN SMASH!

Your Oicunn has free crew slots o_O?
(To be fair, mine will when Kylo comes out and I've already planned to slot this in there)

Strangely enough yes, always got one spare ever since I ditched Sheev and Echo (changed wingman to QD).
Mine always has Recruit Intel Agent and BoShek XD
It's my opinion that this will be a very nice skill card. Plop down your high PS ship at 0 and see how opponent deploys in relation, and then drop your other ship(s) with more knowledge. Or, deploy at 8 if you are facing a list that is mostly below that.
I always threw Chopper on my Lothal Rebel Ghost. But now I'm going to use Chopper Droid on my docked Shuttle, and will, therefore, use this on my Lothal Rebel in place of Chopper crew. It will definitely help to place the Ghost as a PS8 instead of 3. For 0 points, I'm good with that use.
I haven't played in a while, but did I read this correctly.
This droid/crew is only used during game setup and has no purpose after that or during the actual game play, other than setup of course?

Correct, this card is only useful during setup. Otherwise, it would have a point cost for sure.
Yes.

Tomax-Crack-UR-LWF is better.
Courier droid looks ridiculous in theory! =D (Yes, I know its deploy only, but that's so useful for shuttles)
look at this. Like, take a long gandering look at this. Fill yourself with a sense of wonder.

It's perfectly fine, but it's not going to DO much on any of the current Imperial crew ships. RAC doesn't want to be 0 or 8, nor does Whisper or Echo, and the Upsilon can take Hypercomm to get 12 instead, so why take this? Soaking a crew slot on a lambda or bombershuttle seems a bit pointless, and that leaves what... the firespray?
I could see slapping it on a Doom Shuttle alongside Collision Detector for free tiny situational boons
