This seems like a potentially fun combo:

• Dagger Squadron B-Wing w/Advanced Sensors x2
• Green Squadron A-Wing w/Opportunist x2

The Daggers work to mow down green tokens to clear a path for the opportunistic A-Wings (who can clear the associated stress more easily than just about any other ship).

Fixed, but I REALLY love this idea... I will have to try that tomorrow night...

You mustn't use it before you have Aces, it'll take the fun away from getting them!

Why not put it on han, and tell your opponent that any TIE trying to do a Uturn would be dead

Hmm, I quite like that! Four attack vs three defence isn't a definite kill though.

I would like to point out that Opportunist + Adv. PT + Jan Ors/Darth Vader Crew = Potential to 1-shot a Firespray-31

Herm... that could only work on Boba or Kath, as the Shuttle can't take any protons. And it'd be weird to put Darth on one of them. But it is possible. As for Rebels, Luke, Wedge, Ibby, and Ten are the only ones that could make that work. But the only way to get that all into a 4 ship list would be

Ibby (or Luke) w/ APT + Opportunist

Jan

Prototype x2

With 3 points left for flavor. Not even enough to put a turret on Jan. Though if I was to do this, I'd probably throw it on Wedge for the added insult, and have 2 points to put swarm tactics on Jan so one of the protos can shoot early. Though if you left it as Ibby, Jan could use squad leader to get her the TL+F in one turn.

Does Opportunist seem slighty overpriced?

I think it's priced correctly. Lately I've been trying out Expose on my A-wings it's the same cost as a Red Squad X-Wing. I've managed to use it with moderate success, the hardest part was guessing when to use the Expose Action since at PS3 there's quite a large number of other ships moving after my A-Wings.

The Opportunities when I guessed right or was up against a lower PS ship the extra dice was quite beneficial while using my A-Wings for focusing fire.

I would say Opportunist and Expose are the same side of the same coin. The conditions when they are most effective are similar but the PS they favor are opposite, Expose for High PS; Opportunist for Low PS.

Which also means if you feel Expose is overpriced Opportunist may also feel overpriced.

Every EPT that is not PTL is pretty much overpriced. Awings are the way to go, bSP's at 4 are probably too high. Just tough to fit it in, tough to find a pilot it will work on, and then tough to make the conditions work.

For the amount of Flexibility PTL grants, I'm more towards everything else is priced reasonably and PTL is underpriced.

If there were a ship with only 1 action available and an EPT slot; PTL would probably not be used on it. (making PTL overpriced for that ship)

Other than that, the conditions for Opportunist to work are not at all that tough to fulfill. It doesn't necessarily have to be on a the lowest PS ship, just lower than your highest PS ship (or second firing ship if you have 2 ships are equal PS). It's a "Wingman's EPT." it favors Quantity since the more ships you have the easier it is to strip tokens the more ships you have focusing their fire.

Oh, I agree about PTL being under priced but even if it were 4 you would probably still look to it more often than opportunist. Adding 1 dice for a stress token and your action is solid but only conditionally in game, only on EPT pilots, and at the oppertunity cost of other EPTs it feels like a lot.

Hmm.. I still think the price is steep - compare the various "gain an extra attack die" TIE fighters who only pay one or two points for the privilege; Opportunist's triggering conditions are pretty similar.

I can imagine Opportunist may also find a nice home as an Elite Pilot Talent for the Royal Guard - a squad of 2-3 Opportunist Royal Guard Pilots led by Carnor "What are these focus and evade tokens of which you speak?" Jax.

But yeah, I still maintain that Expose/Opportunist is best slapped on Black Squadron or other elite TIEs; going from 2 attack dice to 3 matters in a way that going from 3 to 4 doesn't - no matter how many rerolls and die adjustments you have, 2 attack die won't generate 3 hits, so a 3+ evade die fighter with an evade token will probably be fine.
