What are some fun things to do in 1.0 you can't do in 2.0?

I'm actually excited to trybout 2nd editition epic (protio: just double the cost of 1st ed epic components, rounded down. If a card is huge ship only and/or energy, just directly port it in from 1st ed)

Will be nice to see how monstrous epic ships will be when the standard ships come from a more balanced environment

Given munitions no longer require spending a lock and Jonus' ship is now quite tasty, the missile Raider is almost an even scarier prospect. Not much will survive a triple Pro Torp volley, lol.

Weapons Engineer is a big loss though... Obviously, at home, we'll just use him anyway :D

Force powered crew may even be a viable thing?

My very first game. Sure, you'll get your "first" 2.0 experience ... but it isn't the same as the first.

Or building your first squadron. Oh my god. Pre-buff Vader, Vessery and Jendon. Hahahahaha.

Tie/D Defenders. Seeing the expression on your opponent's face after you tractor their ship into range one of two Defenders and melt it in one round of fire.

What's stopping you

BB-8 Poe with PtL. Endless possibilities.

Heck, the 2e bases actually HELP.

You're getting PTL free in 2e on Poe, if BB8 does the same thing (which I could see tbh) this works fine.

1) Intensity.

2)Flight assist Y-wings with Conner Nets.

Create a full-on racing game (akin to the Mario Kart version floating around) because everyone had access to Engine Upgrade. Still have all my notes and may still do something with it, but it does mean using throwback rules. Alternatively, there's always Afterburners now, sooooo.......

yeah... 5 xwings with flight assist, servo motors, and 3 hard turns that you can decide on a whim to change to talon rolls.

Psycho Tycho. Since DD is now a boost with a turn template, I can no longer do a 5 straight, Focus, EI DD to the right, PTL boost straight... right into R1 and drop those prockets. Or the 3 bank right, boost left, DD left and complete the question mark maneuver. Ahh, nothing like going basically 5 straight and turning 90 degrees. I had such a great time with that list back in W5/6 meta.
