In addition, you must do your very best Palp voice “Execute Order 66” immediately prior to declaring the attack.

Naturally. I kinda thought that went without saying, just like the hidden rule on servomotor s-foils that says you must say "lock s-foils in attack position" before flipping it to the open side.

They both have the same ace pilot, i5 "Odd Ball:"

Is it just me who thinks it's really weird that's how it's written?

Shouldn't it just be Oddball? I know that wasn't FFG's decision, and presumably that's what's written in the RotS script but still. "Odd Ball" with the pause in the middle sounds wrong.

It's the difference between "Oh, that's CC-2237. Yeah, he's a bit of an oddball, he likes going into battle listening to Sly Snootles' Life Day hits" and "hmm, this is an odd ball. Why is it egg shaped and not round? I can't play tennis with this."

Can we please just call the Belbulab 22... Batmobiles? Rolls off the tongue better.

I mean look at it. It's a batmobile. It's got the nose, the front wheel well ridges, the cockpit seat canopy, they both have rockets in the back... ? They're both used by bizarrely wealthy guys who like to wear capes and play vigilante and have belts full of gadgets/lightsabers or whatever. ?

Totally a batmobile.

Also, can we get a unique Droid crew named 'Roger'. Maybe a TacRelay?

HAhaha, yes! I thought that ship looked familiar..

Soulless One works well, even if speaking in generic terms. Everyone knows what ship class (for the most part) the Soulless One is.

I think there's going to be quite enough "roger Roger"ing as it is.

I will always call it a Belbullab-22. This isn't even close to the difficulty that is the Kihraxz.

God, Grievous is such a drama queen.

Who gives a name to a tiny snubfighter the size of a large car, honesty? Especially one as melodramatic as that.

Both twist the tongue in odd ways depending on the languages you're familliar with. It doesn't help that Belbullab is close to a name some avoid saying.

Sadly Batmobile is taken by the Upsilon.

I'll stick with "Bulbasaur".

But we already have a BOBBAsaur ?

Obviously one of these two ships needed to be called the batjet

Beelzebub! Did I say it!?

Yep.

I'm calling the ..whatever it's called the Beelzebulb

It's the Lord of the flies (possession of conch is not yet confirmed) and nothing describes the CIS' horde of crappy, disposable robots better than the name of a household insect

Also doubles as a pun in this game about spaceships

It'll depend on costing. The Bug-22 is very likely to have the Tech Relay upgrade slot which might cause it to be priced out of taking it in effective multiples.

No way it’s gonna be priced up that much for a slot if they’ve already created a new keyword to keep that slot from being OP. (Solitary seems to suggest such things)

I mean I guess it could be Defender levels of good? But I doubt it.

We'll see is all I can say. 4x Bug-22s does look like it might be fun though, depending on then stats when they're finally released.

I think he prefers just Beelz these days.

I may just call the ship that to keep it easy

Until this thread I’d never even heard the name “soulless one”.

Oh.. I’m surprised I thought ships like the “Souless One” (Grievous), “Scimitar” i.e Sith Infiltrator (Maul) were known. Although I do assume most don’t know the “Azure Angel” which was the name Anakin Skywalker gave to his modified Delta 7B, which Palawan Skywalker used. It was blue and white.
