Is this a joke?

The Quadjumper got a cost decrease from 1.0 to 2.0 of 2 point brackets (from 5/list to 7/list) and has one of the highest conversion rates in the game. It's overpowered. Why would they lower it to 25?

I'd prepare more for a change to their old 1.0 price, which would be 34.

Yes.

I don't think that it's likely, but i'd like to see 6 Black Squadron Scouts fit. In all likelyhood, i'll end up with 5 Scouts and a TIE Fighter, or way more expensive named pilots accross the board.

Generic Strikers are ******* awful at current points, with a literal 0% conversion rate.

A black Squadron Scout costs the same as ******* Sabine or Lulo.

Are we talking Extended or Hyperspace, Prettymuch if it is a list of nothing but extended ships, then nothing is going to change. If it is Hyperspace then who knows. -_-

If it has both then it is already illegal.:P

What's their fielded rate?

Wait they aren't updating extended ships?

5 green squad RZ1 A-wings all with Prockets and crackshot (yes I know they don't stack). only requires `1 point off each A-wing and 1 point off each Procket. :)

I think he’s hoping, more than anything. There hasn’t been any announcement of such, and I haven’t seen it discussed much. But the line of thought would be that because FFG has clearly abandoned all hope for Extended, they aren’t gonna change anything but Hyperspace points. 🙃

I don’t think that will be the case, but who really knows.

My personal prediction is that if anything is clearly undercosted in Extended, it will be increased. However, price decreases will likely affect mainly ships that have already been released.

Wow, that's insane. I was hoping for cheaper Defenders.

I can always hope:

TIE/D Defender - Onyx Squadron Ace - 82
Onyx Squadron Ace - (78)
Juke (4)

TIE/ln Fighter - •Seyn Marana - 31
•Seyn Marana - Inferno Four (30)
Marksmanship (1)

TIE/D Defender - •Rexler Brath - 88
•Rexler Brath - Onyx Leader (84)
Juke (4)

This belongs in the 'better not be legal' thread but id say 4x juke phantoms

Yeah, Phantoms are cheap. If they fix them, though, they sure as heck better fix the Defenders, which are 5+ points overpriced IMHO

They better give a few large ships decreases...

As much as I would love to see cheaper Lambdas I'm not sure they need a price decrease.

Lambdas and Scum Falcon don't need a price decrease. The rest are debatable.

The rest can stay on the shelf, where they belong.

If the VCX and/or RZ-1 go down at all, I’d love to give this a go. Saw can be taken off if 9 points is too much to hope for.

Concerning large ships, I guess I'm still a tad bitter about the whole 1.0 era, where almost every single list was "Heavy turret plus Super-ace".

For Scum, I guess it's because I recognize that some control elements are necessary in most list/deck-building games, but I am adamantly opposed to being able to make entire teams that revolve around preventing the opponent from getting to do anything all game. Personally, if I'm not interested in playing an opponent, I would just play solitaire.

A few large bases cant be fixed without being a ridiculous price.

Lancer would have to become crazy cheap to be worth using as it is basically the only large base without a turret(give me 1 good reason to turn it’s turret as you lose synergy with the title, or the pilot abilities, and you would rather action for tokens)

Jumpmaster has a lot of problems.

Decimator as much as I love the design needs a bit of a price decrease maybe dropping the bomb slot could agressively reduce the price?

Kanan ghost pilot wants to be a 4 ship list, but he costs too much and he is only initiative 3 with a pure support ability. Honestly he should probably be closer to hera’s price.

Rebel falcon is also in a rough spot.

(1) Can't fault this much. 360 arcs are thankfully long gone along with most of the other crap that was possible in 1.0 involving large turret ships.

(2) Empire is nearly as bad as Scum when it comes to this though.
