This would explain the evade token in the pack.
If it is in the torpedo slot this would help out all the low agility fighters, B-Wings, Y-Wings, ARC-170s, Kimogila, Scurrg (ugh), TIE Punisher etc ...
While not really effecting the high agility fighters with the Torp slot. It just does not make sense with auto thrusters/3+ agility.
So pretty much like a 3CP0, but not quite as good.

I find this idea very intriguing. The picture on the card seems to show a bwing, so that adds to the credibility of your guess. Problem is, the ghost can take torps. Maybe it will say small ship only? Or is it clear already that there are no restrictions like this? Will be interesting to see.

My thought is that you need dice to cancel them? IDK? (Also I think it maybe a G-1A which does not have a torp slot.)

Title.", but not for "T-65 X-Wing and U-Wing only. Title." unless you drop "title" to the next line, but clearly there isn't enough room for that.
Look carefully - there's three copies of this one. The one furthest to the right has more text visible. The word after "T-65 X-Wing" clearly does not start with an "o", so it can't be either of those things. It's almost certainly "T-65 X-Wing and U-Wing only.", and fills a torpedo slot.

Dude I bet it’s got a system slot, two torps, a trashmech and astromech and three EPTs! That ps1 is gonna be 30 pts!

I know this is tongue in cheek, but ...
I was actually thinking the Renegade Retro/re-fit may actually add a system slot, giving the U-Wing 2. Target Scramblers plus Sensor Jammers would interesting for a support ship.

not necessarily. they usually only include enough tokens for the ship in the pack. Only one X-wing, only one evade token. Then again...they also messed up Target Lock on one ship in a previous wave... (was it the Havoc?). It might be... after performing a 3 hard, you may rotate your ship 90 degrees. If you did not overlap a ship or obstacle, you may assign an evade token to your ship.
For servo's I think the "green" moves in question will only be forwards. more balanced than turning all whites green. This also helps out with the "omg, R2D2 is on every move now?!" experience.

There’s an over abundance of TLs in the core set(s) but only enough evades and focus tokens for the three ships included. So that has led to some ships not being packaged with TL tokens
the TIE Defender came with an evade token that it couldn’t use without the x7 title released years later.

Even so, 4 forward + boost seems ennoying enough on a regening ship. Throw in Luke with Intensity, to get evade + defense dice mods, and you get some really tough piece.

What? The game's namesake ship being not only viable, but competitive. That idea makes way too much sense to ever come to fruition. I find your faith in FFG disturbing.
" The dark side is strong in me, for I am Sith. "
Jam will choose a ship at range 1-2, give it jam tokens until it is Jammed.
Reaper will be 20 points or less base, but Advanced Ailerons will have a non-zero cost.
Tactical Officer will add coordinate to the action bar.
ISB agent will be an upgraded Intel Agent of some sort.
Multiactive Camouflage will be a mod that will be terrible on the Reaper but amazing on whatever's running alongside it and getting Optimised Prototype from Krennic.

Could it be:
When defending ... (if you have)
3 or fewer ... (attack dice, you)
may receive ... (a weapons disabled token to)
cancel all ... (attack dice results)
Im bad at guessing though.
NM, no weapon disabled token. Told you I was bad at guessing. ;-)
haha, no wait, there is a weapon disabled token!
Edited by JediPartisanThe weapon disabled token is for the Big Red Button upgrade.
Are you boys ready for imperial regen?
The unrevealed krennick text will be " after performing an attack recover 1 shield up to your shield value"
Guaranteed

Does that matter? If both are systems slots, you can only use one at a time.
Also my version fixes the U-Wing and the Punisher, but doesn’t give a boost to the Ghost (doesn’t need any help) or the TIE Phantom.

Also I’ve seen others calling it “Thrust Corrector”, which sounds better imo.
Not sure who came up with that though.

Nah. 'When defending, if you have no shields, you may spend a result to gain one shield.'
My lists are ready.

I'd put that on a TIE/D so fast to get evades from TLT attacks.
Ok, so here's a quick mockup of a title for the x-wing only vs a torp slot refit for the x-wing and u-wing. Its not perfect, but I think its clear that its not a t-65 x-wing only title. The "T-65" part of the text starts much further to the left in the preview image, almost exactly like the mockup for the "T-65 X-wing and U-wing only." torp slot.

Yay! That’s good news then. Maybe our U-wings will see some play too.
But it’s been a few weeks since that preview, why haven’t they given us more?
Need more content!! Can’t wait!!

Because it's still in development, so it's 4 to 6 months away from delivery, and there's almost certainly an elephant in the wings waiting to be announced (the Solo Falcon) and added to the wave before any other previews.
Don't expect any more news (aside from the Solo Falcon announcement we all know is coming eventually) until... May, at the earliest, if we're lucky.
oh yeah, tactical officer would be fantastic if true... it means that the Lambda shuttle can be of some use!
Im trying to narrow down this card. I think it might be solvable based solely on what words fit in each line to make the text line up correctly on the left hand side. I think the name is correct based on how they each line up but the card text is a little off. Any thoughts? (ignore the card type and points obviously)
