So, about the GR-75...

The  Gozanti doesn't suffer any negative consequences either. 

They should be rolling for damage - 1 red die for small ships overlapped or 2 dice for large suffering any damage/critical damage rolled. A negative to be sure but a pleasant one.

IDK, I like the idea of just a flat faceup damage card for everyone for collisions. Doesn't hurt the big ship that much but could potentially destroy an A-Wing or Z-95 immediately.

Maybe facedown damage for huge ships.

I'd probably do a full step. 1-small base 2-medium and 3-large base

Sorry I wasn’t clear... what I wrote were the FFG Official huge ship rules in first edition - if the rule is retained what your saying is a nice conversion to second edition 😊

While I doubt much will change for the Rebels, with it being the only Huge ship for the Resistance, do you think it'll be weaponized? I can't really see them not giving it some kind of attack when the First Order has two extremely powerful Huge ships (the Gozanti and Raider are arguably the best two Huge ships) that are armed and very versatile.

In the recent stream, they suggested that there'd be a baseline 2-dice front-arc primary weapon, and potential titles/configurations to make is a bit more heavily armed. They said the same thing about the Gozanti as well, so single-epic-ship factions--while not getting full corvette-class ships--won't be left too far behind on the hardpoint-game.

They also clarified that ramming has been toned down (thankfully, imo)

Yeah, definitely loving the news the GR-75 has some teeth AND ramming insta-death is gone for small ships.

Not sure that would work in this game.. As is there's no rules to 'ram' into someone to damage them.

i mean it didnt work in star wars either, theyre having to retcon it out because it invalidates the entire premise of dogfighting and space magic
