Dalan Oberos is different in the Kimogil and Starviper

There is actually lore to suggest that it isn't actually the same person. It's implied in the Kimo's article that that version of Dalan is an imposter.

Also has different Pilot abilities

A couple of thoughts: You can't "fix" the A-Wing by introducing a new, better, pilot. The idea of any fix is to make Phoenix Squadron pilots into something you both have a reason to, and enjoy, putting on the table.

Having said that: Hera and Wedge in A-Wings, _YES_! Gimmie.

Something I'd like to see is a configuration card, flipped at the start of the game. Side A would basically be "Outmaneuver", and side B would give an extra charge to any one equipped card.

I've long held that Outmaneuver is built for the A-Wing, but has never been the "best" use of its Talent slot. That's why you almost never see it. I was honestly a bit disappointed to not see it as the extra text on the A-Wing.

As far as side B: You'd get either 2 uses of Crackshot _or_ an extra Procket, but not both. This would be something that no other ship can do, and makes them a bit nastier than they otherwise would be- but not overwhelmingly so.

Either side would make them fly very _differently_ than they do currently- and than anything else in the game does. And both options would work well for high, mid, and low Initiative pilots, though one side works better for 5i and 6i ships.

How about some low-Init unique pilots like Sunny Bounder? Yeah, not generic, but some low-cost, less-impressive pilot ability Uniques at a low Init?

Hmm... maybe: Init 2, no Talent Slot (Just like Sunny Bounder) "After you perform a White Boost or White Barrel Roll, gain an evade token". Might be too much, but it'd be squirrely as heck.

A-wings are fast and agile. The dial and linked boost support this. But it makes me sad to see bombers and support ships with higher Initative.

My wish list is:

- Wedge with same pilot ability and initative (6)
- SLAM action – to make it fly over the table with a 5x5 move!
- 2 talents

This still going on, eh?

Well, I'd like to submit built-in Outmanuever

Still not as punchy as interceptors, but not so offensively challenged for their cost
