TIE Reaper Preview!
Holy balogne!
22 Points for Scarif Base Pilot. A minimum of 1 point more than the OGP. The other spoiled pilots have good synergy w/ Jam.

Loving it. Vizier is a really great buff to the striker swarm! Its gonna be so much fun flying that list.
Edited by MaxPowerThat Tactical Officer! Imperial Only love... what?
At first when they annonce the Reaper I was meh but now I far far more happy !
This guy is SOOO CLOSE to being something to support a Striker Swarm, but it requires to give his focus or evade tokens away instead of just assigning it which requires to come from his pool of actions....I so wish it was just assign a focus or evade token to said ship at range 1.
Edited by RStanThis expansion looks awesome for the Empire!
holy crap do I not know how to feel about tactical officer, that should be **** good, I just hope not too good
Could this help bring back Interceptors? Maybe it's a start. Step 1 of a forty-two step process?
Did we ever get the rules for the Jam action? I seem to be blanking on it.

They are Huge-Ship only, until now.
Sigma squadron with Tactical officer is 27 points for a 4 agility coordinate that cannot attack itself. Scimitar squadron with Tactical officer is an 18 point coordinate.
holy crap. This is SO much better than I thought it was gonna be! Definitely getting 2 of these guys! (and two of Renegades as well)
Spend 1 die RESULT to remove a shield from the defender. So it always does a damage, whether it's a hit, crit, focus, or blank. Wow.
Protocols is so good. Put Krennic on whisper and give her the protocols as well. +1 shield, spend blanks to remove shields, and auto-fcs, freeing up her system slot for sensor jammer, adv sensors, whatever.
This is awesome! So happy to see an expansion with a playable ship and decent cards so it’s not just one or the other.

Tactical Officer and Recon Specialist?
Really interesting dial, you may not want the Aerilons depending on how you want to fly it, and even add in TIE MkII for all-green banks (e.g. Fleeet Officer, Systems Officer). Adrenaline Rush might be useful here too for the option of a white stop or S-loop (or to just keep your opponent guessing).
Palpatine almighty, this thing is ridiculously good. Like, sheathipeed tier EASILY
Also they gave the TIE shuttle coordinate
Edited by ficklegreendiceGonna be awesome with Krennic and Ysanne on board!
Yup Krennic is confirmed for amazing. Also you get the ability to jam two ships, which makes it quite solid I think, and can force your opponent to break up their formation.
Also one sloops. Best new maneuver ever.
Vizier is kinda crap but hte rest is amazing.
Passing off your own tokens is never good. It leaves you with none and he lacts an EPT for PTL to get focus and evade, and a focus (recon spec) isnt that useful for a 1agi ship either.
They'll just target this guy because hes making the other ships harder to hit while also making him really easy to hit.

That's the reason why he's so close to being good and especially for a TIE Striker swarm where the Aileron move can proc his ability to hand out focus/evade tokens. If it didn't come from his pool of tokens and he just generated them for the ships doing the 1 speed maneuver, it be Striker swarm plus him.
