Meanwhile, they quietly killed Double-tap Dash

RIP DTDash. You won’t really be missed.

From the official rulings thread:

Quote

[Note: this is an amendment to the prior ruling from October 3rd, 2018]

Q: If a ship with Han Solo [Rebel, Gunner] is made to engage at initiative 7 (through Roark Garnet, Heightened Reflexes [Force Power], etc.), must it perform Han Solo's bonus attack first?

A: Yes. Han Solo [Rebel, Gunner]'s effect occurs at initiative 7 before any ship at that initiative engages (including the one to which Han Solo is equipped), so Han Solo's bonus attack is always performed first. This means that it cannot perform Han Solo's bonus attack and then perform a subsequent attack from the same turret arc.

With Null losing the EPT slot, FFG is clearly limiting the number of I7 attacks that can happen in a list to one. I'm ok with that.

Edit- I guess you could have multiple Force users with Heightened perception, but as of now there aren't multiple 3-4 dice Force users that can be taken in one list.

Swarm Tactics on Null may have been part of it, but I think the I7 or I0 BioHex/SquadLeader Coordinate across the board is also a big contender for why Null lost the slot. Could be both though.

Honestly I think it had more to do with squad leader coordinates as well. That’s all I used him for (and what made my FO list semi-decent instead of blah - now instead of ace and mini swarm I have to commit to one or the other).

Yeah I’m a little sad I never got to try out squad leader Null- I played one game against it, and it was an awesome use of ~38 points.

While doing nothing about Hyperspace Tracking Data, meaning that Tripsilons are still available for that NPE experience.

How much will the Republic Jedi hit for?

Patience. Lets see how things pan out post adjustment. If they continue to be a problem they will be dealt with.

Fear will keep the local metas in line. Fear of this points-adjustment.

Always.

Could I ask the source on this? I'm not finding it anywhere.

Official Rulings thread of the Rules Questions Sub Forum. Direct link to the post:

And to the thread itself (It is perma locked so ONLY FFG can update it)

Aha, right in the obvious spot. Thank you, I'm used to the Keyforge forums where everything has been unofficially officially answered lol.

I guess that depends on what the Aethersprite has for stats. I don't know what they have.

Found it! Looks like 2 die, normally, but with a title to potentially go to 3 at the cost of an agility.

It's basically (sans upgrades) a TIE/fo with force-powered autothrusters. We do need to see what purple actions are, though (I'm guessing you either can or must spend a force charge to do one, since that's "force charge purple")

The Poles got an info dump today for the Republic ships, Pilot cards:

I think ours will be Friday like the last 2, but at least we've got high res images of the stats and art now.

Skip this post... Images got blocked for some reason. :(

Yeah, in six months. Also, what happened to your images...?

I think the point is that they're not there.

Nevermind thanks @Hiemfire

Not showing? If so that is strange I can see them. The language is Polish if that is the issue.

yep the links there

They are giant red circles with minus signs in them for me. Very jarring to suddenly scroll to.

And they're doing that now for me. Looks like FFG is region locking it. Oh well time to delete them. :(
