better question

Why the frak don't Z-95s get discounted modification slots? And two?

See Khiraxz....

Also Scum Z95's pay extra points for a slot that doesn't work for them.

Well, I guess the dead man's switch is an option.

I've tried, and it's not good.

It forces you to fly far apart from your own ships, which is added complexity ontop of avoiding obstacles and bumps while keeping enemies in arc.

I think if it was free it still wouldn't be played much in tournaments.

Initial dampeners is another terrible upgrade, yes Super Obese Han has managed to make it work, using R2-D2 crew and Kanan which might not even make it past an FAQ, but is super niche and specific a use of inertial dampeners.

The upgrade costs a shield to trigger and gives a stress. If it cost a shield and no stress maybe it's worth a point or two, or deals stress and doesn't require sheids to be spent.

I'm just really underwhelmed by the illicit upgrades.

Cloaking device, rigged cargo chute and Contraband Cybernetics are good abilities, but a tad too costly right now, imho.
