Well, it'll basically have the ISD silhouette there. Won't need clarification because they are all ISDs, differently from the MC variants

Will it have? Or maybe something like Exodus fleet? Something like Star Destroyers Only.

That would include Gladiators and Victories. Victories could always use some love, but I’m not sure about the glads.

maybe, but on what I quoted he said that it'd be exclusive to only ISD 1,2,Kuat and Cymoon, so I thought I'd help with the simplification of what would happen

Mc30 are included under MC designation so why not Glads? It seems a possibility to me as long as star destroyer has been removed from every other imperial ship name since wave 2.

I know. I just wanted to point that out. Again. Excitement. Sure!

What about MC30 Ackbar Star Destroyers?

What about the Raider-1? It's a ship that travels between Stars and gets Destroyed a lot.

You may know it by its alternative name: TSD - Tiny Star Destroyer?

No idea, if anyone already brought this up, but do only I think that its funny, that in the artwork of the mc only title the profundity is escorted by non mc ships?

just noted:

them being hammerheads is also amusing

Is Mon Calamari Exodus Fleet a title or something new? They don’t explicitly call it a title, but it fits the roll like Task Force Antilles and Organa.

It is, the symbol on the card is for a title upgrade.

Cool. I did not catch that detail.

Makes me me want to do the goofy and run:

Add the Exodus titles for another 10

Two point bid. 1 shield auto repaired, 8 Engineering points, and 2 shield transfer between the two ships if they try to focus one down. 7 shields back a turn should count for something against anything that isn’t AvengerBT. You could triple down and reduce the squad screen for Walex and Lando.

I like the idea, but I think I'd run Ackbar and let myself be a bit more flexible.

I essentially just downgraded to the Command, added an activation, and added an external source of tokens. With this, a repair token gets you 5 engineering and a dial gets you 9. So particularly in the early exchanges, you can pop a token to do the minor repairs while still having access to ConFire or Nav. I like the concept, and I've been looking at running a double pickle, so this will be something fun to chew on.

Would it make them imperial ships as long as they are belonging to an imperial force?

Interestingly magic madhouse has the release date as 31 March

I am a little surprised they didn't give the armoured version an extra defensive slot though.

That would've made sense to me, and it keeps the theme of rebel ships having, in general, better defenses and Imps having better attack. Though with this ship and her arcs, it might have been a bit much, even with her less than optimal defense tokens.

True. This ships a beast of a ship and gonna be a b*tch to destroy

With only one brace and one redirect, I'm not so confident. The HMC80 is overall tankier and better capable of maximizing its defensive retrofit slot and the LMC80 has some defensive issues, but its front arc is golden and double-braces there are pretty sweet. Of all the large Mon Cal ships, the MC75 seems to be at best second tankiest and arguably third.

I like the design of it real Tanky real punchy. Use with liberty to apply pain. I can see it now 1mc 75, 2 mc 80L put um in a headlock! Or start the ackbar conga line with this, and drive right into the enemy fleet!

I'm wondering if we're going to see Walex glued to this ship for this reason.

I have probably missed this, but do we know already how Raid tokens work yet? Of course, they lock corresponding commands, but how long do they stay on the board? Are they just gone after the next activation of the targeted ship? Does the ship have to issue commands corresponding to the token to get rid of it? Does it stay indefinetely?

I think yes. At least, he came to my mind to fill her officer slot, to slightly fix her flawed defences.

I don't think we know yet.

My guess though is it's not permanent. Maybe "you must spend one matching dial to discard this raid token" or something along those lines?

Unfortunately full rules for raid tokens haven’t been released yet, but a playtester confirmed that there is more to it, tho he is not allowed to say what, guess it’s wait and see

my bets are in an article for the gauntlet (cmon their action has to be raid) where they are fully explained
