A) That's not how balance works. Opportunity cost dictates that the more expensive pilots need better pilot abilities because they aren't competing with a single game element, but rather multiple game elements and any potential combinations thereof. In other words, if the most expensive pilots had worse abilities, you would never see them on the table becuase combinations of cheaper pilots and upgrades with better abilities would always be a better investment.

B) Darth Vader would like a word with you

he said skilled, not expensive.

Skilled are the most expensive. The only area where this is not necessarily the case is force users.

and duchess. And maybe Miranda, I don't remember. The point is that skill and ability power need not be related, so long as price is accurate.

A.) Yes it is, because pilot skill factors into their strength

Also, ffg learned to stop pricing pilots by initiative alone (see Biggs v Thane, + duchess, brath, tomas etc). This ain't 1st Ed

So, again, highest skilled pilots should not get the best ability

B) well la te da, Vader. You can get in line behind Jonus, Deathrain, Sabine, Luke, Biggs, palob/mux, Sol, rebel Lando etc.

No

Green dice = anti-fun

Wedge = anti-green dice

anti-anti-fun = fun

Q.E.D, Wedge is fun

I mean, he did the math. It's settled.
