I Want a 2-Crew Scum Shuttle for Christmas - An X-Wing Christmas Carol

By cdalman, in X-Wing

I Want a 2-Crew Scum Shuttle for Christmas

Only a 2-crew scum shuttle will do.

Jabba the Hutt. Greedo and Boba Fett.

Are just some of the Personnel I need a place to set.

The other guys already both have two.

Lambda and a TIE, Auzituck and the U-Wing.

They're hogging all the good supports that'd make my villains sing.

I want a 2-crew scum shuttle for Christmas.

With a small base an a cost of twenty-two.

I don't care if it flies like a Hippopotamus.

I just want something other than that freaking Party Bus.

I want a 2-crew scum shuttle for Christmas.

I don't think that's to much to ask, do you?

And if I get a scum shuttle for Christmas,

I promise I'll go buy a C-Roc too.

Seriously. Both Rebel and Imperials each have four ships with 2 or more crew slots. Scum has all of ONE. The Flarestar Attack Shuttle would let us get a 2-crew ship and get Hondo Ohnaka and his Pirate gang into the game at the same time. Please, FFG? I'll be your best friend.

Rebels have Ghost tooooooooooooooooooooo.

TIE-Shuttle?
Yeah lets give scum a two crew shuttle which specifically forbids them to put Jabba on it!

If the cost is only 16 points like the TIE Shuttle, then I'd might accept not fitting Jabba on it. But a 20- to 25-point ship should be fine.

Meanwhile in FFG offices...

I second getting Hondo into the game and Scum getting a dual crew ship, specifically one with a k-turn, sloop or troll.

I have seen a good ideas for Hondo, when attacking the defending ship must roll and modify their dice first.

Not something that's currently I the game.

My version.

lol u think Imps have good shuttles

I'd give a lot for Imps to get access to a YV666.

The only Shuttle that there is for Scum is the Purgatory-class

Mandalorian Aka'jor.

YV-666 or C-ROC (yo yo) is decent enough.

The Upsilon shuttle, certainly packs a punch with four attack, the lambda the U wing and Auzituck with native three attack, granted Auzituck is clear winner with its huge firing arc. All without a turn around.

The Tie shuttle with its two attack is the only one with turn around manouver.

But I certainly agree that rebels have great shuttles and great crew.

TIE shuttles are almost never actually worth bringing, because they can't tote the really good crew (Hux, Palp) and don't contribute enough to hold their own. 20+% of your list is too much to pay for 3 extra actions per round.

And the Lambda and Upsilon being big bases with terrible and mediocre dials and only an arc make it hard for them to contribute. The Ghost and Auzituck are just SO much better than either (heck, the U Wing, is more than 2 points better than the Lambda and it's one of the worst ships the Rebels have...).

For the diversity of it all, would be fun.

For the necessity? Not so much.

I don't think Jabba is worth much outside of epic play.

OP, Did you base that off of a song? Not sure how to read it correctly. Mind keeps veering to Little Mermaid "thingamabobs" song.

Give this guy a cookie.

My friend and I were trying to work this out. And that fits, was it intentional?

Pretty sure it’s meant to be to the tune of “I’m Getting Nuttin’ For Christmas.” ;)

The song is "I Want a Hippopotamus For Christmas". Well done, OP.

Diversity is a necessity. Just ask Darwin.

I think FFG should do more releases like the Scurrg: belongs to a faction, except for a one-off.

The Sentinel-class shuttle is Imperial, except for the one Hondo stole.

The Zeta-class shuttle is Imperial except for Rogue One.

The Luxury 3000 Yacht is used by all: Mara Jade, Lando, and Azmorrigan.

Pretty sure the Sorosuub Luxury 3000 Yacht is also used by Obi-Wan, Cad Bane, Moralo Eval, and Hondo in the Clone Wars. It might be an older ship of the same line, though.

All I want for Life Day is my 2-Crew Scum...

Wouldnt it be about the size of the Blockade Runner or Rebel Transport though, I dont exactly declare that ship to be "shuttle class"
