Happy Friday to everyone,

This week I want to ask out of what we have seen which faction are you most excited in 2.0 about and why?

BE Excellent Dudes !!!

Probably, Rebel... though Imperial is eye catching as well

Imperial because they're the best.

Honestly I am actually most excited for the Resistance faction since I always loved X-Wings and they sound like old school Imperial aces (except these guys can probably take a hit).

Tough question.... :D

I don't think I even checked out the Scum or the Rebel stuff at all, so I cannot comment on those.

I'm not terribly hyped to the revealed imperial ships so far. Vader is amazing, but I really expected green turns on that ship, if it ever gets reworked. The X-Wing moves better, plus they can get green turns via astromechs. I really hope Twin Ion Engines makes a return, and decreases difficulty for turns as well... I don't see why only rebels and scum get those upgrades, when Imperials are supposed to be the mobile faction. Also, the removed Evade hurts... That ship (not Vader, but the rest) has to be cheaper than the X-Wing...

The TIE... well Iden is great. Howlrunner is fair too. Evade nerf hurts.

The Bomber we have seen very little of. I'm not impressed by Deathfire, but I like the ship changes so far. I hope Rhymer will be awesome.

I love the Lambda change, although, a bit of a help with the dial would have been nice... It really is atrocious. Now without Boost, the Lambda is really going to struggle, unless they get some help with their dial...

Soontir got shafted, I expect a drastic point decrease for the Interceptors. (they were overpriced anyway). I really don't see myself paying more than 50 points for Soontir.

I'm interested in the Punisher (obv), the Aggressor, and the Reaper is still exciting. I want to see what they did with the Defender as well. and I hope the Striker gets reworked, or given a variant that has bombs and crew.

I'm super excited to see what they do with rebel ships like the B-wing and y-wing (norra is a pilot!) And the Z-95.

But I also want to play with a rear-arc lambda and some Tie bombers/punishers

Overall, I'd say 40/40 (and 20% for scum)

Rebellion forever! Except in Armada, in which case, Glory to the Empire!

Scum and Rebel. Scum for the fluff, Rebel for the synergy (that’s not broken)

Da Furst Orda!

Scum jank till the day I die.

Imperial all the way baby!

I'm excited to see what new ships we get for the Resistance. Also excited for Rebels, and X-wings with moving s-foils.

Same, We've been proxying all the changes that make sense (core stats, linked actions and such) and the new X-Wings just feel awesome. The de-escalation of the combat system makes TIE Fighters work again, and everything is exciting once more! That being said, You have no idea how much I want spinny Fang Fighters.

Imperial of course!

Resistance. That’s an old Corran-type of style.

Imperial, because that's 90% of my stuff.

Imperials for sure! The Lambda is finally getting a rear arc. Yeah Baby!!!!!

Imperial for life. No matter how much I did enjoy flying things like poetensity my heart will always be with gunboats, defenders, phantoms, and punishers.

At least until FO returns.

I faction locked myself in first edition. I am still most excited about imperials but I want to make an effort to run scum and rebels more often. I really like the dial changes to the firespray

The first thing I want to run, if it's possible, is three strikers and a reaper.

It doesn't matter if you voted for Palpatine or not, but you should support the troops! Imperials are my thing.

I do like flying X-wings around, though.

I fly all factions, as a result I'm already lining up numerous kidney buyers so my transition to 2.0 is looking good.

Mostly though, I'm looking forward to flying Garven, Jake, and Kyle together in 2.0 and seeing how that does.

Rebel, empire, resistance, and first order, I love thematics and from what I’ve seem, that’ll actually be viable!

Which ever ones allow for a solid trip aces build. So potentially all of them?

Resistence. And it will not be intimidated! I am really curious about their distinct playstyle in the new game.
