17 Maneuvers:

10 are green.

4 are white.

3 are red.

Wow!

Nice, that's even more green than the Jumpmaster had with Unhinged

''Today we will see the end of the Republic! The end of the Resistance! The end of their pathetic fleet! Today we have launched a new era of aeronautical engineering! The Silencer will be the ultimate weapon for space superiority. It shall dance around the pathetic X and A wing fighters like a Zurkian bat around a Nerf! It shall also end the ravaging of pirate hordes upon the galaxy. The Scurggs which have plagued us for too long will become debris clouds.

Death to the Rebels! Death to the scum and villian who loot our galaxy! All hail the Empire! All hail the First Order!"

Would IG-2000 be broken on a small base? Would be an interesting experiment. Could make it work with magnets..

On that note, this looks like another case (like the Punisher and Quadjumper) where my standard small magnet and ball bearing probably will not be enough to hold the ship up properly.

It should still work. The silencer is long, but most of the weight is centered on the peg.

Of course not if we know literally everything from the leak :P

What Leak? I thought only the other four ships were spoiled?

I would settle for a FAQ that says: IG-2000, for purposes of upgrades, the aggressor may use those labelled small ship only.

I would love to put Juke on those things.

Actually Being serious guys.

I know I'd think I was Joking If I had seen it, But I haven't.

Could you point me to where I could find it?

Thanks

Really? Nobody's going to bring up the casual list glory that is Youngster with Debris Gambit flying alongside four TIE/fo Fighters with Juke? Granted, you can only fit Advanced Optics on three of the four, but it still seems like a really fun list!

Lol

Day-old news and no dial or generics.

Anyone spotted the deliberate mistake yet?

Target lock as an arc dodger action? :lol:

Coming next month in time for the movie move along folks, nothing more to see here. :rolleyes:

Time to speculate on missing SKU and Wave 14. ;)

Nah, Americans love big gas-guzzlers. (Not including me. . .my last car was a Mini Cooper, and I now have a SMART car).

OTOH, the limo is just another big car with a ton of wasted space. ;)

Lastly, you can use the "I have the bigger vehicle" theory of survival. . .something like the Jug could take a crap ton of hits and stay flying just from a structural intergrity standpoint.

In the long run, I think this thing is gonna look super cool on the table. As an Imp player, I'm chomping at the bit for Dec 7.

Oh me too my friend me too..... DAT DIAL and pair that with our lord and SAVIOR GUNBOAT I am extremely excited.... just the scale issue to me is crazy

have you tied intensity on b and c....... Yeah that is exactly why intensity is small ship only.

inb4 this and the gunboat end up dominating the meta and it gets immediately nerfed because #ffghatesimperials

TIE/fo already have Evade.

Nah, gunboat would need a system slot for that to happen.

You think Kylo wants to share his swanky Silencer with any crew? They were cramping his style in the shutto e, he had to get a ship all to himself.

And no-one wants to be sitting beside him if he misses...

That's pretty motivational for a badmotivator. . .

I'd avoid Huge ships, then. ;)

i have had an issue with them since they came out

**** the Ghost should have been a Huge ship IMHO I mean in Rebels this season it is shown to be virtually the same size as Vizago's C-Roc Cruiser.

Fine, but then don't use the word tremendous.... Use 'decent'... or 'standard'... or even 'weak...ish'.

Now, you too can have a perfectly serviceable fighter, capable of standard attacks to make a decent showing against the enemy! Fight for supremacy with your barely adequate forces and show the galaxy who is truly mediocre!

Yeah, I wonder why the marketing team didn't go that direction with it.

Should we be happy that the major complaints on this thread are about scale and choice of adjectives in the article?

If that's the best the forum can muster towards this ship, then I think we have a pretty good ship coming this Christmas!

And "how come the second largest ship in this wave doesn't have a crew slot?!"

I think it would be a wash, basically. The main thing is, it would be slooooooow.

Now if the picture of the x-wing t75 are in scale, FFG have screw it the silencer so hard.

The silencer is 17'5 m long and they made it two and a half the size of an 12'5 m ship.
