Happy New YEAR

By Cubanboy, in X-Wing

Wishing everyone a happy year come this monday 2018, we made it friends!!!!!

So if FFG pulls out an Ace Pack add in Jan, what would you like to see for Rebels?

I'd like to see it have Imperial pilots.

Yep. Wedge, Sabine, and whoever that other guy is:

The T-65 was an Imperial ship in the beginning. Maybe, just maybe...

X-Wing + E-Wing with a modification that gives both an Illicit slot and titles with point reductions for generic pilots.

It’s Hobbie! He’s been around a lot longer than Sabine has. He was in ESB.

Many Walkers on screen. So Air to Ground combat rules.

Happy New Year!

i think the most likely ace pack would be the Heroes of Scariff pack for x/ywings.

Imperials could get a pack for TIE/ln and the Punisher. TIE/ln has basically been relegated to strictly 12pt filler thanks to all the anti-swarm crap so it could really use an anti-anti-swarm boost (0pt title: you may roll 1 evade die every time you would take automatic damage as the result of another ship at R1 being attacked. On an evade result, ignore that damage). And of course while Deathrain is surely a force atm thanks to bombletts, the punisher as a whole is still pretty craptastic. The theme of course would be TIE's escorting the Punisher.

(The TIE title should only go off on splash damage since another ship needs to be getting attacked to trigger it. That way it doesnt give them an unusual boost against bombs and avoids fuzzy rules about evading "If this attack hits" damage and obstacle damage)

Yes, the interceptor could use love too, but quite frankly i could care less now days. Interceptor is my favorite TIE design but its concept in this game is all-or-bust, its either REALLY REALLY GOOD or complete crap. Besides, we have the silencer which is literally a fat interceptor so big deal.

I dont see Scum getting one unless they wanna rerelease a large ship. Which obviously theyve done, but lot of people were salty about it since its hard to use multiple large ships. Hounds Tooth, IG88, or the Firespray (both scum/imp) could use a boost as well as the Mist HUnter

Any of these:

  • Heroes of Scarif (Blue Squadron X-wings and elite Y-wings)
  • Inferno Squad ("special forces" TIE Fighters from Battlefront II and maybe TIE Interceptors too)
  • Saw's Partisans, or Dreamers (Partisan X-wing and U-wing - though not necessarily with the actual U-wing miniature)
  • Scum "combat" huge ship (Action IV, Interceptor-class or Crusader-class) - wish: Action IV, with Wild Karrde title, Talon Karrde pilot/crew and Mara Jade's Z-95.
  • Hammerhead Corvette (with a lot of Rogue One crew cards and, if not included in other pack, elite Y-wings)
  • Gunboat Aces !! Just kidding! It's too soon for this. We can wait another couple of months. :P

I don't want to see repaints for E-wings and TIE Punishers. Never ever.

Repainted punisher would literally just have a red streak on it.
Somehow i doubt they'd ever get the Royal Guard scheme.
