Mon Calamari Exodus Fleet question

Finally, you can build an entire fleet of Mon Calamari ships and take advantage of their similar design by equipping your “MC” ships with the Mon Calamari Exodus Fleet upgrade. Hearkening back to the Mon Calamari flight from their homeworld after Imperial occupation, you can use this upgrade to boost your ships’ engineering points and repair your fleet. So long as you have plenty of Mon Calamari ships in your fleet, it’s certainly worth considering if you want to declare that your fleet is a detachment of the Mon Calamari Exodus Fleet .

" Finally, the Hammerhead Corvettes Expansion Pack offers one more twist—the introduction of "task force" upgrades. These non-unique Title upgrades don't name their Hammerheads but, instead, assign them to one or another task force —either Task Force Antilles or Task Force Organa " .

Uhm no. They specifically call these task force upgrades “non unique title upgrades”. Dude show me in the profundity article where they refer to the exodus upgrade as a title. They do not call it a title anywhere in that paragraph. Try again because you’ve given zero evidence within the actual article to support this being a title.

I am happy to wait two months to be proved correct.

There is no upgrade slot on any mc ship for MC Exodus Fleet upgrade cards. Zero, zilch, nada.

Without a slot an upgrade cannot be used.

Articles are prone to errors.

Playtesters have confirmed.

So you keep believing if you want, but no, I wont "prove" it because I dont believe you want to listen.

But it still IS a title, no matter your misgivings. A non-unique title that can be applied to any MC. :D

Also the card layout used is the Title layout.

Maybe I've overstepped the article, then, by telling you it is a non-unique title. I can only hope FFG doesn't smite me for the slip, if it is indeed a slip. However, the fact of the matter is the Exodus Fleet is a non-unique title upgrade for MC80s, MC75s, and MC30s.

Ok I accept that it’s a title. Now I’m confused as to why people are excited for it? I can’t imagine a scenario where I would choose this title over the home one title or the mc30 titles. To each their own I guess.

You're trading resistance on one ship to spread it across the entire fleet. You're getting back 2 shields from a token, even on the MC30. That's equivalent to an Admo or Foresight discard. It's a different kind of durability, one that has strong endurance. Since all you need is a token, a Comms Net can toss tokens to whichever ship is under pressure, while the ship itself does different commands.

I like that you think I have any control over when articles come out. Or any idea when they're going to come out.

Do you realise how much joy bringing gauntlets against madine will give. Oh so much joy.

It was more like “FFG is watching you, they saw how you thought you slipped by saying it was a title and thus release an article talking of the 7th fleet and specifically stating it as a title” kinda thing :D
