It's nice that they're showing the cards and such but the one thing I want to see are the dials for each ship and they're not showing those yet.

the cards and the ships are drooling me dry... if they had shown the dials... i will have nothing to drool with!

Maneuvers are out. I made a quick reference chart:

The Shuttle is a MUST HAVE... with Push the Limit! Imagine the possibilities!

Really? Why is it a must have with PTL? That is the last ship I would put PTL on.

ETA: You can't take PTL on the shuttle because they have no elite pilot talent slots.

With engine upgrade at least it could make a 90 degree turn without stress.

Oops.. my bad... just thinking of random possibilities... haven't really seen the ship upgrade slots... :-)

So Shuttle has a poor movement dial and nearly anyone can get behind it. I'm already seeing people talk about this.

But what about it having speed 0 and anti-pursuit lasers?

But that means you can't take other modifications either?

Hmmm,

Well, what could they expect ? It has simillar cost to Y-wing but greater firepower and shields. It had to really suck at maneuvering. Personally I love that 0 maneuver. It shall bring some new tactics to the game.

Imagine wave 4 now... and trying to K-turn... K-turn right off the board, LOL.

cool support ships. lots of ways to hurt the Falcon, as hinted at in the spoilers.

i think im most impressed with the HWK, its upgrades r very useful for rebel players, the guy that keeps focus tokens and gives them to other ships is my favourite... both protects and boosts ur other ships... focus fire combined with target lock is serious damage.

What I'm really disappointed with the HWK's maneuvers considering how little it has going for it. It may take one more shot than an A-Wing but it cost more for less firepower and agility. Sure it can sport a turret and provide other things but I'd have thought it should a dial at least as good as the Y-Wing or the YT-1300.

I know they are selling them at Gencon, but has anyone heard when the regular release is?

i saw pre-orders saying the release date is 22nd Aug

its slow alright but that could be an advantage in some situations as u dont want it to arrive on the front line to soon, you want to arrive to support other ships on later turns id say.

Recon Specialist (3)

When you perform a focus action, assign 1 additional focus token to your ship.

thats some pretty strong synergy, with a supply of 3 focus tokens on board you can then go offensive for a few rounds with

blaster turret (cost 4) is also very strong, a 360 degree firing arc, 3 atk dice/range 1-2 for spending a focus token? sounds pretty good to me. its not over balanced because of its cost, it just adds squad versatility much like the Y-Wing before it. Very nice support for any rebel ship, especially those with target lock.

Is there a list of what card upgrades come with each ship anywhere?

thank you, thats a great resource.

It appears the only cards missing are Flight Instructor (from the shuttle) and the Generic HWK-290 pilot.
