Dace Bonearm 2.0

By Innese, in X-Wing

be really surprised if hwks weren't cheap

I mean, they're MUCH better but the dial still aint much and they're arc dependent (except dace, who is list dependent)

Srsrlytho, I worked hard in 1.0 to make Dace Bonearm work, mostly because I hate myself his awesome name.

Admit you just wanted to say, "You've been Bonearmed!!!"

What? Not just "boned"?

Or "strong armed" into blue manuevers?

I can honestly say I never expected his topic to get more than 3-5 posts before fading into obscurity on an ever increasing page number. Brings a tear to my eye.

People are rightfully excited about the new hwk, after all

Eu for white boost plus moldy focus (ew) + 3 dice primary...gonna be fun times

Am I the only one excited for Jams?

I like the basic design, but wish it was a 2-charge rather than 3-charge ability. It'd be every 2nd turn instead of every 3rd turn, but probably not too bad.

The truth is twofold:

1) I loved the idea of ion tokens, and being able to recoup the loss of damage was a step to making the decision to use ion more viable.

2) I have a clearly defined mental image of Dace Bonearm, and that mental image includes "RUDE DUDE" tattooed across his knuckles.

Not till I see the action details

Honestly, (and just to drag the debate into yet another thread :P ), it's the Hawk's radical upgrade in manouverability that leaves me eyeing the G1A quite so askance.

The hawk gets boost now. Even red, that's not nothin'!

white jam and sensors!

well, it had sensors in 1.0

If Dace and another ship with icing capabilites are around on turn seven then you'll get his ability twice. That seems very unlikely to me. I also think it should have been 2 charges, considering all other pilots are once a turn abilities in arc.

Torkil has no Range o_O

For now, it seem to me that Torkil as no range restriction. this is both fun and anoying

I always said you just took "Dace to the face"

From what I can tell the only time range is mentioned in text is if it's either out of arc or not range 0-3. It's pretty safe to say that 'in firing arc' mechanics will be something you can actually check with a normal range ruler.
