Choo choo, start the hype train. What is going to frequent top tables from wave 2???

My guesses:

• Definitely Poe (lol at all the fools predicting 80pts, you know FFG was gonna make that boy hot fire)
• 1-2 of the bombers with Paige gunner, probably Cat, maybe Fallow
• Rey w/Finn Gunner
• Poe/Target Sync/alpha strike will be a meta archetype (+ AAA w HM or XX with ptorps)
• Maybe Jess
• Maybe Lulo
• Awing chassis looks really solid, not enough to be meta alone but a lot of potential
• Primed thrusters everywhere

Im sure there are some combos I'm missing but these are what stand out to me on first glance. Nothing else (in resistance) appears to have the shiny meta gleam to it IMO.

Rey + Poe

m9g8 support if it fits

that's about it?

So much Rey and Finn.

Probably with Poe. In many ways, they feel super similar to Boba and Guri to me, as a combo.

Bigger, fatter double arced ship with super easy access to multiple dice mods and a nimble, pre movement reposition high initiative ace with a strong attack, decent HP and basically the guarantee of a focus every turn.

FFG wants to move those bombers, there's too many toys for something to not be good

Bombers...aren't good

WEll, lemme clarify

In the format limited to recent releases, they're "good" because they're currently the only legal bomber (short of Emon, I guess, but...yeah...)

In extended, they really ain't **** next to Redline or even Sol! Full kitted out, they're far cheaper or comparable (respectively) to Edon without upgrades

I definitely agree here. Poe with just the Config is roughly equal to Super Nat Luke with 1 more Init, So 68 bare works for me. He's going to be a pain on the table for sure.

Rey (w/Finn and title) ~ don't have title cost but ( 90)

Poe (w/title and either BB-8/BB Astro) ( 78/75)

Tallie (35)

If you want a very formible 3 ship this could be it, if you need to fly Rey/Poe together. Of course this changes slightly if the Falcon title is more than 3 points because then adjustments would need to be made to Poe (who would need to fly the BB astro who while giving Poe repositioning is not BB-8). If you run Poe bare 0r with just the title then that opens Tallie w/Ferosphere Paint+Heroic or even a heavier Rey. The options become limitless.

Other contenders

2 Bombers and 2-3 RZ-2 A-Wings

Poe and A-WINGS

Hmm, some other thoughts:

What's their face that gets FOCUS result when defending v enemy in arc + c3po (plus trajectory stuff etc)

Scrubbiest t-70 + m9g8

I 5 As seem like great, cheap filler

If you can find a way to keep her ability reliable turned on, Cat with VTG could be a thing, double tap with +1 die on both shots. Also with paige you're at 2 bombs/round. A little more sauce (FCS, Rose?) and maybe its there?

I think we prob gotta see the bombers as less a bomber and more a support...bomber

My ideas:

You get the super scum Sabine bomber, with traj and bombs ofc

Then add c3po crew; prob good enough

OR, for master-tier jank, you get Rose + Targeting synch and Combi with two ptotorp t70s (one with m9g8)

Rey with Finn Gunner and Rose Crew?

Also, I REALLY like Han crew

Probably too much given how situational it is, but given added results ala Finn or the bomber that adds focus, well those're just free evades!

and he's cheap-ish (6) considering the points costs for other crew (in regards to Rey)
