X-Wing Stream @ 1500 CST (Link to recordings added)

By Hiemfire, in X-Wing

Let's hope they manage to keep streaming this time.

Yoda Crew! Helps with purple actions and purple maneuvers of allies. And 2 force.

Snap Shot was a typo. No increase.

Heralds of Hope has a lot of upgrade cards. Good starting point for X-Wing. New pilots, new old pilots.

The three turret arc indicators is not a mistake. There is an upgrade that will make these useful.

I'm very excited about the HMP Gunship and sideslipping.

I don't play Resistance but Merl Cobben looks pretty cool. Nice concept.

Ah, ****, i'm gonna need Starbird Slash. Hope the Rebels get it soon.

Overdrive Thruster is janky and wonderful.

They did talk about the Eta-2 Actis ship ability, Intuitive Controls, but I didn't see a picture (at least not yet). Let's you do a purple barrel roll or boost during the systems phase and I think that's fun. EDIT: They did eventually show it.

They made a statement that the hyperspace ring won't be in hyperspace or extended.

Republic era reveals.

Purple Maneuvers will have the same result as a red if you dial a purple but have no force.

A structure is a "game feature" according to Max.

Hyperspace ring is designed for Epic, scenarios, casual.

  • Not usable in Hyperspace or Extended for tournaments.

So now we need an "early model" v-19 config so it can use the hyperspace ring, right?

ETA-2's having a white evade sounds far too good.

And R2 giving you regen without a disarm token.

canonically the Torrent uses a different model of hyperspace ring, IIRC.

I swear they SAID DIS-TB1 but it looks like DIS-T81 (but maybe I just misheard them).

Anyone notice that Mace Windu ability is naturally good versus Jango Fett's ability?

Hyperdrive maybe being an upgrade slot that can just show up on other ships for epic/scenario play is a really interesting area for expansion.

Currently T70s can’t perform a red slaam, so I wonder what’s going to change to make it so that Overdrive Thrusters allow it.

Poe can let them do it if they have Black One. That's the only thing I can think of.

Not unless they change the rules on Slaam. Currently you can’t do it as a second action and can’t be granted the ability to do it through another effect.

Ah forgot about that, I don't play with it very often. I wonder if they forgot that rule existed. I think they mentioned there is another config for T-70, unless I misunderstood. Maybe it will be there.

I’d love for it to be some sort of generic crew to grant a red slaam, maybe require a crew and an illicit slot, which would give Resistance, FO and scum access to it.

Would work for the Lancer, but would still lock Coaxium out of the Kihraxz. Illicit/mod almost seems better.

Also seems they're straight-up ignoring the three squad pack leaks. TBH we have a really nice bundle of material here so it's hard to be too upset, but on the other hand the RZ-1 is just looking sooooo sad now...

This could not have been more perfect. And as expected, it is not faction-restricted

And I love that they make you work for it. You have to be a trickster to play on his level!
