Hey everyone!
Whats everybody’s best guess for the base models of the upcoming ships?
I’m most excited about the n-1 and the hyena and subsequently I’m think that the n-1 base model comes in at 35 and the base hyena might be 28. Thoughts?

Those make sense to me! Resistance pod and transport are interesting... maybe Sheathipede-style pricing on the transport (32 ish?) and then super cheap on the pod (like, 22?)
Hyena is what I care about most. 26-28 seems like the place for base Hyena. I've kinda landed on 27 points for it. Basically a Torrent that can carry more stuff with a worse dial. It will be interesting to see how they cost the uniques as the Vulture uniques are widely considered to be overpriced besides maybe DFS-311.

I was going to point out how different the action bar is, but Networked Calculations is in some ways better than just a focus action (and in some ways worse--balances it nicely IMO), and the Hyena trades off evading for Ordnance-related actions. So I don't feel like that needs to be priced particularly differently.

I honestly have no idea about that one... I am curious how it slots into current resistance archetypes too.
I say that the Hyena will be 30ish. Being able to carry barrage rockets comes at a price, imo.

But only two of them will be able to shoot those, by the looks of things (there's a 2-pip that appears to be able to ignore focus/calc/TL restrictions).
The only way the rest can fire a [focus] missile is if the Tac Relay or another upgrade still does in fact allow it, in which case they'll be tied to the range and points of said Tac Relay/upgrade. There's an added cost already regardless of how you look at it.
Basic tie bomber is 30, so hyena with same att, agil, -1 Hull, action bar is the same just calc for focus. Basic hyena is int 1 bomber is 2. Bomber has nimble bomb hyena has network calc (which is better).
i see these guys being 25/26 points.
Yeah should be basically torrent prices.
I haven’t gotten to play much since Republic dropped - is there a consensus that the V-19s are priced correctly? Do people expect them to shift in the next update?

I don't expect them to shift, really (except for maybe Oddball?). They pretty much do what they're supposed to do as cheap cannon fodder in the 25-35 point range (depending on your pilot and upgrades.
N-1s I expect to start at 30-33 (34 if they deem 6 N-1s is too good).

The Gold Sq Troopers are priced okay, but everything is a bit overcosted.
Expect (hope for):
Hyena: 27 (25)
N1: 34 (32)
Transport / Pod: 38 (??) / 26 (??)
Bonus round! July point changes for the wave 4 reprints:
Falcon: Prices seem mostly fine? Leia crew obviously up. Chewie and the generic could be cheaper without breaking anything I think
Decimator: down down down!
TIE /sf: everybody but Midnight down?
TIE /vn: everybody but Kylo down?
B-Wing: jesus, maybe
up
? Maybe just Braylen up?
25 point hyenas would be amazing, tbh. But also maybe too cheap.
The magic number for 6 of is 33 points, and that might factor in.

Outside of the aforementioned Barrage, are any missiles in particular worth shutting down the 6-in-a-list? I’d think Ordnance would certainly have to be added to get them up to 33 points.

Midnight in an SF? I’m in!
Every SF but QuickDraw down, I’m also in. Also would love cheaper generic silencers.
