Unless Snoke was trying to say Kylo would always be to weak to try and overthrow Snoke like Vader did to Palps, so Kylo killed him to show that yeah, he can be another Vader.

To finish what he started....

Soo... If Kylo's not the First Order's ace, who is? They're more faceless than the Empire.

Maybe the Storm trooper who yelled "Traitor!"

Yeah but kylo sucker punched snoke using a force gimmick, vader straight sacrificed himself to protect his son and no maam’d palpatine into a reactor actually using his own 2 hands.

Sorry Vader is still the man, kylo couldn’t hold his jock sweat.

His own stump and mechanical hand, thank you very much.

It seemed like every faction would have 2 Init 6 pilots. So what is First Order going to get?

I guess:

Quickdraw

and

Tie FO Fighter

One of the FO Ties is I6 in the picture.

Well, I guess it makes sense, given that the Silencer's rival faction similar "incredible ship" representatives (E-Wing, Starviper, and Defender) all are capped at Init 5. Yet another example of how well thought out FFG is looking here. Very cool.

Agreed. Somebody tell Ben that.

That would be savage with 1.0 ability. Would force mod trump her pilot abilities though?

Why make her I6 when you could just make her not exist?

According to the new rules reference, mods are only those that follow the ARCS rule (Add-Reroll-Change-Spend result) so there you go.

It may have seemed like that but Fenn and Han made that not happen.

Rebels - Wedge, Fenn, Han

Scum - Dengar, Fenn, Han

Thoughts of Quickdraw - probably nerfed. It looks like they have a rotating arc which can be front or back like the Resistance A-Wing instead of a double arc like the Arc-170. They get the gunner slot but need to actually buy the Spec Force Gunner which if the arc is in the front you get an extra die and if it is in the back you can double shoot. Having to waste actions to flip it to the back or front and basically being given a gunner they have to use seems really bad. Maybe it’s 3 dice but I doubt it.

Thoughts on the pilot formerly known as Lockdown - her ability now means the she can’t mod the Defenders dice either. So Juke combo is gone. Also it looked like only the locked ship’s dice couldn’t be modded so that means others can mess with her dice.

Also so few things in Resistance and FO. That TV needs to come out soon so we can start getting more ships for these factions.

Well aside from the special Rebels and Scum the other factions all seem to have 2 Int6 ships so far.

As far as Resistance goes considering that apparently Racing will be a big thing I guess we will be seeing the Resistance get some zippy ships. Can't wait for FO **** Dasterly showing up and trying to cheat only to be stopped by a young Resistance ace pilot and spy with his plucky band and 'pet' droid BB-8.

FO: "I'd have taken over the galaxy too, if it weren't for you meddling teenagers!"

- Side note, considering how TLJ played out I have to wonder if the new characters are going to be as dead as those Padawan from the Clone Wars that they wanted to focus on, hmm...

But yes, it looks like Quickdraw and Midnight are our two I6 aces. Midnight at I6 in an environment which doesn't readily allow you to kill target locks (range 1 only jam, expert handling/black one don't remove locks) is nasty. I suspect that comm relay's gone, though (advanced optics is now weapons guidance by another name), so juke is less powerful.

Though with the new ability wording Juke wouldn't work anyway.

Yeah that's a decent balance
