These new ties have quite a bit of firepower

Captain Glitterstim seems pretty good.

That’s Commander Glitterstim

Captain has a better ring to it.
Static with a good coordinator is going to be a pain...
Yeah, Commander Glitterstim looks like fun.
Had a lot of fun with Scorch back in the day, so I look forward to using him again.

Yeah, thought the same thing.
The I1 Rivas seems REALLY good. If he's cheap, that just seems like an auto-add filler ship.
Not a fan of the generic names coming back with serial number lady, but the abilities mostly look good.

Do you mean TN-3465? Because that's her actual name.

If they ever get a cheap coordinator like Scum or Rebels. Omega Ace wasn't that good in 1.0 even with Advanced Optics, but 2 dice in 2.0 go a bit farther so who knows.

Then she should have gone by a callsign like everyone else and had that as a subtitle.
edit: Phasma has got to be the worst character from the new films.

At worse a TIE/FO squad can have a FO with Squad Leader to help with Static's set up. Or just be patient and save the first pass lock for the second pass.
Should have called her "Loose End," based on the quote at the top of the Wookiepedia article.

That is her callsign, under First Order protocol. TN-3465 is her canon ID, just like FN-2187 was Finn's. She was never given another name, unlike the other pilots in the kit that FFG is just outright making up.

Then make up a new character rather than use one from a retcon comic about a terrible character?
Edited by HolySorcerer3465 was too pure for this world.
She looks like a pinup model.
At least I can still use my models.

Maybe the First Order sets just aren't your thing.

It's probably just my rational hatred for Phasma bleeding through to associated characters.
That aside, I am looking forward to getting the TIE/fo back out onto the field. A shame we didn't get to see any useful tech upgrades for them, as that is what will really set them apart from the Imperial TIEs.

Who cares what she looks like? She could be Mrs. Potato-Head. All I care about is her game stats.

If they have a tech slot, Primed might be nice on them. Barrel Roll after a 2 S-Loop to keep prey in sight anybody?

Maybe, but I'm still mourning the (probable) loss of Comms Relay.

For lock sharing? I think they spoiled that it is in 2.0 awhile ago. I'll double check.

For holding evades to enable juke.
