Just now, GreenDragoon said:Usually, the 'obviously designed to pair with' cards don't end up being played like that.
I'd wager it will go on Rey/Han without DAcy
Oh, no argument from me- players usually find unanticipated ways to pair up cards that devs/playtesters don't. Just from the outside (as I don't play Resistance), it seems that they were made to synergize. What it becomes when it releases into the wild is always intriguing.

If that is the case rather than the card just outright giving a free token to a friendly ship, this is a lackluster card. If the transfer just gives away a free token, then this card is considerably better. Anyone have any insight into this card?
The ship carrying PZ-4CO has to have the token to transfer, otherwise the card would specify the target vessel receives one calculate/focus token. I could see this guy being useful if paired with C-3P0, but I'd imagine he will be a reasonably cheap crew slot option; you have to perform particular maneuvers to perform the transfer, and the sending ship loses the token.
Rey+C-3P0+PZ-4CO? Gets two Calculate tokens per use of the action, can potentially pass one to an ally, leaving Rey with her Force tokens and one Calculate for her attack/defence.

You must have the token in order to Transfer it.

**** of a way to sell the ship, right?

Perfect, thank you both. I assumed that was the case, but when you assume...
What about a lok with angled deflectors/vtg/ion canon/lando
Have the reinforced defence then a rerolls by spending it at I2
If you think this is 1.0 Combowing you haven’t played against a decked RAC with Vader crew and all the upgrades.

Wow that is frakking bonkers. Are you seriously telling me I can reinforce an A-Wing? Not that I would, but I could? Good lord... and only for the cost of minus one shield?
Technically, you COULD put this on a TIE Interceptor... Which is... Kind of insane. Doubly so, I could throw it on a Kihraxz, put a shield upgrade back on... Oh god.
**** this is a game changer. Straight up. Holy crap. And correct me if I'm wrong, but shields do not need to be active to be able to use reinforce? You can just... use it? Good grief.
Imagine these with TIE/FOs and Hux on a boat. Oh my GOODness...

Jamming Beam starts to look like an useful upgrade.
I, for one, certainly can't think of any time that white k-turns or large base white s-loops broke the game. No sir.
4 hours ago, MegaSilver said:Can we see the Resistance Transport and Pod pilots, and quick builds?
I mean still not everything has been spoiled yet. Thanks.
I have a copy of the new ships.
The ones we haven’t seen until now:
TRANSPORT
Cova Nell (I4) - While you defend or perform a primary attack, if your revealed maneuver is red, roll 1 additional attack die.
Nodin Chavdri (I2) - After you coordinate or are coordinated, if you have 2 or less stress tokens, you may perform 1 action on your action bar as a red action, even if you are stressed.
POD
BB-8 (I3) - During the Systems Phase, you may perform a red [barrel roll] or [boost] action.
Finn (I2) - While you defend or perform an attack, you may add 1 blank result, or you may gain 1 strain token to add 1 focus result instead.
EDIT: Forgot Quick Builds:
Cova (Lvl 3) - Composure, Leia, Korr
Pammich (Lvl 2) - Autoblasters, R5-X3, Kaydel Connix, Spare Parts
Nodin (Lvl 2) - Plasma torps, Angled Deflectors, R2-HA
Logistics Division Pilot (Lvl 2) - Proton Torps, Larma, Holdo
Rose (Lvl 1) - PZ-4CO
Finn (Lvl 1) - Predator
BB-8 (Lvl 2) - Autoblasters, Afterburners
Vi Moradi (Lvl 1) - GA-97

They said we've seen everything in those packs.

I have them. Everything is spoiled I think
Vader with the option to reinforce sounds amazing, especially with Hate to keep the Force flowing. It does cost him the option of Afterburners as well as 1 shield, but seems powerful anyway.

Yes. Herragator 2.0
The card art for Angled Deflectors is kind of ironic, haha! I don’t think it can go on any ship that doesn’t initially have a shield value, because all other stat-dependent upgrades (stealth device, Hull/shield upgrades, etc.) are based on the ship’s printed value. So, I think the tie aggressor is the “baseline” empire ship that can take it, no interceptors or /ln, sadly.
However, keeping in mind the Empire, Redline looks like a good option for this upgrade - as far as a ship that doesn’t have reinforce and might be able to use it effectively. He still gets a Lock!
The spread for the transport shows a facedown astromech card, is it just one we’ve seen before or was it not even in there?

It’s just R5-X3. Same one from the conversion kit.

Wut? Vi doesn't let you change your dial. It's Intel Agent, just marginally better (better range) as a pilot ability.
