So what are the new faction “identities?”

!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

I mean seriously, did we not catch 2.0 Feroph? dude's only 1 agi AND he can guarantee his die roll evades

best ship, 2018!

Feroph might legitimately be the reason why I enter 2.0 with an imperial conversion pack...well him and Deathrain...and gunboats...and bombers...and defenders...

...

I think empire's theme is less "roll good" and more "fly better"

come to think of it, I could even see Scum broken down to a trilogy of sub-factions in 2nd edition:

Mandalorians (Bounty Hunters in genenral?) focusing on devastating - but difficult to pull off - offensive jank. Few betrayal mechanics.
Hutt Syndicate focusing on incredibly expensive, yet uber-powerful abilities. Some betrayal mechanics.
Black Sun, focusing on controlling the battlefield, win conditions and the opponents ships (like Thweek). An enormous amount of self-harming betrayal.

You'd then be looking at 3 factions with 3 distinct subfactions each, giving the game of X-wing much more room to spread its wings.

I'd rather love to see stuff like that, like not official sub-factions but thematic ones.

You know nothing gives people more satisfaction, than gloating over your enemies in your puny ship that NEEDs to be flown expertly to even deal damage.

Imperial aces are such trolls.

them and reaper pilots

reaper's strolling into 1.0 on a small base and optional aileron and he's like

"oh nah, make ailerons mandatory on my pilot card and give me a larger base. I know I'm super action dependent and a larger base will make life more difficult, but that's what makes it exciting"

"Sir we've been jammed!"

"What flavor?"

"Raspberry."

"Only one person would dare give me the raspberry!"
