No Clone Wars Faction-EPTs?

By Bucknife, in X-Wing

We've got Ruthless for Imps, Selfless for Rebs, Fearless for Scum, Heroic for Resistance and Fanatical for FO.

Has anyone seen the faction Talents for Republic or Seperatists?

I didn't see anything in the Nov. announcement article except maybe the last card in the B22 expansion...

I guess this thread is a wrap.

DEVOTED for Republic

Devoted 

When another ship is located in your left or right arc at range 0-2 defends, if he has the devoted equiped (had problems reading that last part), and you are not stressed  , you may gain one stress token. In that case, the defender rerolls one of its blank results.

Treacherous 

While you defend, you may choose a ship that obstructs that attack and spend 1 charge. If you do, cancel 1 HIT or CRIT result, and the chosen ship receives one [ SOBREESFUERZO, Overload ] token. 

When a ship within range 0-3 of you is destroyed, recover 1 charge.

Nothing yet, no.

Republic should definitely have a clone-centered one (Jedi can’t equip them anyways)

CIS might skip out? They’re not gonna have as many high initiative pilots by the looks of things, anyways? Hard to say.

Instinctive for clones, calculating for droids.

Most droids won’t have EPTs tho.

I really wished I paid attention in French class right now.

Is that Mace Windu and Plo Koon!?

To be fair the separatist is on Spanish language (Too bad I forget everything...) 😛

Does no one in this forum read French!? I need to know what those say!

When was this spoiled?

Somebody type it into google, stat! I can’t do it on mobile and I need to get back to work 😭

Looks like Mace has two force powers equipped on the threat build which is cool

The sell by date is 1st quarter 2019, its still good for months dude.

I think Devoted affects friendlies at r0-2 in side arcs if they also have Devoted equipped. Which is exactly the kind of thing I wanted it to be.

Yay to the clone group tactics. Devoted is a good adjective for them. Droids will probably get a talent as well, since we have droids who can take talents already. I'm hoping that it requires a calculate action to emphasize that they are THE droid faction. Calculating might be a little too on the nose, perhaps something like heartless or Soulless.

Oh, and Grevious officially has the focus action. Good on FFG for not screwing that up.

Loosely translated based on my problems reading such a low resolution and translating technical terms:

Devoted

When another ship is located in your left or right arc at range 0-2 defends, if he has the devoted equiped (had problems reading that last part), and you are not stressed, you may gain one stress token. In that case, the defender rerolls one of its blank results.

EDIT: going to try reading the other one now.

The resolution on the separatist one is too low, can't make out most of the words, sorry.

Thanks for giving it a go. :)

I love the emphasis on flying side-by-side as brothers. I'm interested what formations will work best... Hard turns in particular seem tricky. I flew enough PTL Norra in 1.0 to know that often the banks are all you need on the ARC, but I don't know how well that translates to formation flying.

@WAC47 it seems there's an emphasis on a "gunline" formation where everyone is side by side boosting each other up as a team. Very cool.

Here’s to hoping 4 ARCs with EPT slots (and Devoted) will fit in a list 🤞

How about Obi? Or Greivious

Looks like Obi-Wan's ability is when a unit range 0-2 spends a focus token you may spend one force charge to gain a focus token. Did I mention I haven't used French in two decades and the text is fuzzy? Yeah, that's my excuse.

A fun "trooper only" EPT would be " Order 66. "

No idea what the wording would be..."You may fire on a friendly force using ship. If you destroy that ship, gain the points towards your final score" 🤣
