Screen grabs from the 2.0 trailer

By wurms, in X-Wing

Hyperspace? looks like it fits between the nubs with a focus on the other side? Possibly for a mission in the core set?

This one hurts me, one of my favorite ships to play and he just got nerfed. No more barrel rolling and bombing, and cant drop action bombs before moving. He now has a craptastic "on death" ability.

Thought this had the squad point cost on it. But squad point costs are now 200. R2D2 is 10, so a slight point increase.

Dutch now has a much more useful ability:

Hard to see, but that name says 'Valen Rudor' and that my friends is a TIE Defender. Only question is, is his ability the same? Cause if so, watch out!

Thanks for these.

Sad for Deathfire. His second action is probably target lock, but what is the third? B-roll+? red something. Maybe T-lock?

Hopefully the Punisher is now a hardcore bomber however.

Thanks! The Tie Bomber looks like it is much more of a BOMBER now with reload and that new stapled-on title that lets you deploy bombs with bank templates.

That hyperspace ace thing is, I'm guessing based on the Team Covenant interview video, related to the new Core Set game mode that allows respawning.

one thing we got to keep in mind is he have no idea what the costs are

also the bomber got buffed. Going by that imagine, you can use bank templates for dropping bombs

that's actually pretty big for ACTION bombs, or high initiative bombers

there's also a white b-roll --> *something* action

It looks like all tie bombers are going to be able to choose to use the 1-bank templates for dropping bombs though.

And that 4th action on his bar, the red one, is that a “charge” symbol? Which would mean that, for a stress, bombers can reload an ordnance.

And.... ninja’d. I imagine that is happening to a lot of people today.

A red reload.

I assume all dedicated ordnance carriers (Bomber, Y-Wing) can reload, while Gunboats will probably have a Slam-reload chain.


But reload is a lot weaker. A lot (all?) of ordnance has charges. Concussion missiles have 3. I wonder if reload will ever be used on dedicated ships, if they all can fire several missiles without it.

Edit: Charge is a lightning symbol
