Hey guys I've made a sniper themed seeker executioner for Force and destiny. I just got my force rating, dedication and that special talent where you can roll the force dice as part of your check and am debating what to do next. Should I take sharpshooter to hone my gun skills with those nifty talents, or should I focus on specializations that give me more force rating?

Heavier weapons: heavy repeaters, e-webs, grenades, thermal detonators
Light vehicles: speeder bikes, troop transport speeders, maybe even some repulsor tanks or light walkers

And when your standard trooper is equipped with a blaster pistol, even a run-of-the-mill blaster rifle can be an upgrade. Uniforms and armor might be good for infiltration, too.

So I'm making a jedi in FnD and wanted to know if its not to strange to have a Shii-cho Knight with a lightsaber with a curved handle.

I think form 1's wild hacking and slashing techniques supplement a curved lightsaber. It also helps form 1's reliance in disarming opponents because of the strange angle the handle provides. Both form and curved lightsaber due bad when up against blaster.

Shii-Cho as far as I can tell, I care more for the mundane desu as Force users get boring after a while.

I don't understand why Warrior has Shii-Cho and not Juyo, since Shii-Cho is supposed to be the most barebones lightsaber style and Juyo the most violent.

Because Juyo is the one that only Darksiders and Mace Windu use, whilst Shii-Cho is the one that most resembles traditional swordfighting. Real Sith use swords

Those people are idiots, Ned Bs are fine, though usually you see them with either the salvation or yavaris title(the latter more than the former).

The main reason people say they suck is the huge vulnerable side arcs and the the lack of a redirect token, which means taking hits to the sides kills them very fast.

That said, they make great snipers and support ships, because they can stay back a red range with no drop in firepower, and keep their well shielded bow facing the enemy far easier.
>>
>>51421159
>look at the time
Whew anon...

>no one says your guy has to make good decisions
Sooooooo...it is a good idea? *shrug*
>>
>>51423635

Adding to that, the Salvation tile is the king of the sniper role (it counts crits results as 2 damage giving it a 1 in 4 chance of double damage on each die).

Yavaris on the other hand, is used for squadron double taps - any squadron that it activates can attack twice if it does not move.

There's also the Redemption title, but no one takes it.
>>

yeah. had a couple games with a borrowed deck and recently picked upthe Villian stater deck.

>>
>>51425324
Any MC80 you play, especially the winged ones, would be better off getting close and drawing enemy fire while the Nebs hang back and snipe.
Activate an MC80 with Overload Pulse first and you've got a good chance to exhaust all your enemy's defense tokens, making them prime targets for Neb sniping.

Alright, so I don't like flying palp defenders. Its strong and too simple for me to have fun with, so I've always flown variants and I've had a blast.

But I've been thinking of changing it up slightly (at least until I see what that new cannon is on the scum epic). Normally I have my 2 defenders and a support ship, but I've been considering either upgrading the pilots and/or dropping the support for straight damage. Which would be better?

My usual list:
>scimitar squadron pilot
Tie mk.ii engine
Tie shuttle
Fleet officer
>Countess Ryad
Tie/D
Ion cannon
Predator
>Glaive Squadron Pilot
Tie/D
Ion cannon
Predator

My idea for boosted pilots:
>Gamma Squadron Vet
Tie mk.ii engine
Tie shuttle
Fleet officer
Swarm Leader
>Maarek Steele
Tie/x7
Juke
>Rexler Brath
Tie/x7
Expertise

This way Rexler maintains full modification for pushing crits, and the shuttle can pretend to be a phantom.

And the idea to throw more red dice by dropping the support ship:
>Pure Sabacc
Adaptive Ailerons
Lightweight frame
Swarm leader
>Maarek Steele
Tie/x7
Juke
>Rexler Brath
Tie/x7
Predator

Brath loses most of his mods and in return Sabacc can throw 7 red dice at range 1.

What would you fly?
>>
>>51426240
In the last regionals double defenders plus omega leader or quickdraw have been reasonably popular
>>
>>51426240
If you're rocking Rex have ships shoot before him so they can eat up shields before he attacks. Tomax would be great here.
>>
>>51426071
>Hell I wish FFG would release an official but optional era system just to make things more fluffy.
There's no real point, it'd just be printing out a list of which ships saw service when for people to reference, which people can already do on their own.

if to want to stick to a certain era just talk it over woth your opponent. in my experience most of the time people are haply to try out game varients or missions in a casual setting.
>>
>>51426316
What did they put on quickdraw? Rage and baffles?
>>
>>51426402
I would if I could. I like running Brath with RAC for that reason, but I'm fine with dealing crits on the second pass if I need to. Plus Brath can help chew away shields for Maarek's crit, and the shuttle/sabacc can pull shields off the next target or kill the critted ship if it isn't gone by then.

>>51427362
A little bit all over the place, to be honest. Kavil works best with a tlt and no torpedo. If you're set on proton torpedoes, however, take extra munitions instead of the second one. Saves points.

The hwk doesn't seem to know what its doing. You need a focus for the turret, or an action for the saboteur. Either give him the moldy crow title so he can keep focuses stashed away, or consider a different Loadout. Autoblaster and saboteur is interesting, but forces you to get into range 1 to use it (where the hwk will die easily).

The black sun pilots usually can't do much due to their low pilot skill. They will need to get a target lock to fire. Either give them both feedback arrays to be easy blockers, or swap them for a super damage z: n'dru sulahk

Try this:
>Palob Godahli
Tlt
Saboteur
Black market slicers tools
Expertise (or predator or something)
>kavil
Tlt
Predator
R4 agromech
Engine upgrade
>N'dru
Lone wolf
Cluster missiles
Glitterstim
Guidance chips
>>
>>51427628
Whoops also need experimental interface on palob to get the BMST and Saboteur off at once.

Running Dash Rendar for the first time, later today (fat Dash).

Any interesting ideas for who to bring alongside him? I was thinking Corran Horn, but that seems a little too boring.
>>
>>51427941
Dash/Corran is pretty standard but still fun to play. I like running Miranda loaded with TLT and bombs. Gives me late game regen power and crazy board control with all dem bombs.
>>
>>51427941
I love my Nien Numb build

Stay on Target, Targeting astro, autothrusters, pattern analyzer

It's very non-boring.
>>
>>51428113
Any idea how Miranda and Norra do when paired up together?
>>
>>51428292
They are good on their own and they don't interact in any meaningful way so they are good but don't expect anything stellar.
>>
>>51428607
I was thinking since they were both good late-game ships an opponent might feel like there's no good answer of which to target first.
>>
>>51428672
They aren't that tanky though, they are both vulnerable to focus fire and can be erased one at a time in a couple turns. I think you should chose between one of them and either pair them with a bigger and tankier ship (like Rey for example) or put them with Biggs.
>>
>>51427941
A Lothal Rebel with some cheap upgrades can be a big fat pain in the ass for the other guy. Miranda or Cornholio regenerating probably get you better bang for your buck though. Norra might fit too, though again less tactically agile.
>>
>>51427919
Wingman and drea won't work well I think. She doesnt need actions, as she will always just take her constant target locks.

I can see what you are doing with dace for the extra bit of damage, but its not usually that effective. Ive never actually seen Dace on the table before. People just bring palob and torkil because their abilities are so good.

If you're set on bringing the two z's, ion pulse missiles should be swapped for assault or concussion missiles with the guidance chips modification. Concussion with guidance chips really hammers in 4 hits easily. Then you can give them feedback arrays so they aren't useless in combat.
>>

Eh, debatable - Shoretroopers aren't really camo they're just tan colored. There are canonical detachments said to have camouflage though, and in Legends post Endor even regular stormies learned to pattern their armor in Woodland at least.

The Scout troopers on Endor at least used to explicitly not because of the Emperor's raging overconfidence as you point out - and then after Endor I think the empire realizes this is a universally bad idea.

I'm the same, but if the players' actions in their b-plot ruin the setup for future events, I don't mind.

I'm in. I've bought both Destiny starters and 10 boosters but still need more to make a competitive deck. About half your deck should be dice cards. Did an OP tournament having just played one game with a friend so went 0-3 but still had fun and defeated a character game, so even for a noob with "hope for the best" deck you can still feel like you have a chance at winning for most the game. I have some rule questions:

1. General Grievous' Action states "Before an opponent’s character is defeated, you may move one of their non-ability upgrades to this character."
Does General Grievous have to be the one to defeat the character to trigger this or can any scenario in which an opponent's character is defeated trigger it?

2. I forget the specific card, having only play 4 games, but an Event let's you force an opponent to discard cards equal to a number shown on x type of dice. If that dice has already been actioned and returned to the relevant card, does it still have a value/number? And thus be used for that Event?

Defenders with the X7 title are brilliant- some of the most dangerous ships in the game right now. Ryad in particular.

A mini-swarm of TIE Fighters, either regular or FO can be a pretty decent thing to team it with.

I haven't had much success with Imperial bomb lists- without something like Sabine crew to enhance the damage output they tend to be a little lackluster. Full on missile and torpedo spam can be pretty good. Crack Shot on Tomax Bren is really, really good, since you can keep pushing damage through.

The TIE Striker is incredibly maneuverable, but not really all that survivable (two agility and no shields is gonna do that.) On the other hand, Pure Sabacc is real great when you want to roll a bunch of red dice.

It's the eternal temptation of parasite authors.

Can't invent your own story? Latch onto an existing story and fill in the gaps.

Nobody wants to write the story of "Rathtar, the guy who hauled ore for 40 years and then retired.". Everyone wants an epic tale of adventure. They're right... but they don't need to do it in this setting.

But because they're parasite authors, they will try. And thus, we end up with the same stories told over and over again.

I mean, to be fair, the story about the Death Star gunner was pretty fucking wrenching, and Boba Fett hunting down the demon war criminal was interesting.

And yeah, sure, it's raygun gothic, but if you decide that every single character in Star Wars is deserving of their own tale, rather than being background to someone else's tale, you end up with the incestuous boondoggle of canon you have now.

Of course the first nuCanon Mando MC is going to become Mandalore, because that's the only cool thing we can do with them. Crusaders still best, fuck Supercommandos, Deathwatch for life.
>>
>>51439356
She's not even an interesting Mandalorian either. I just hope that they have to go find Mandalore's armor to make her claim legit instead of her using that outdated lightsaber.
>>
>>51439347
Eh, to me, as long as they don't get fucking kudzu-y and involve a trillion billion Death Star ripoffs and explaining how Rey got her name or the one time they crossed paths with Luke, I'm cool with it. Side stories help to flesh and fill out a setting when done right, and as much as a lot of die-hard movie-only nuts know, there's not all bad in the old EU - Mara Jade, Thrawn, etc.

Shit X-wing list coming through:
https://geordanr.github.io/xwing/?f=Rebel%20Alliance&d=v4!s!31:205,72:-1:15:;41:-1,36,110,-1,-1:-1:-1:;74:18,36,-1,148:-1:1:&sn=ABEs%20Odyssey
Basically the thought process behind this is I haven't used my E-wing yet and I've barely used my B and A wings so I wanted a list that used them all and had some synergy to it rather than just being like Corran and two naked generics or whatever.

Anyone got any ideas for some tweaks to it? It doesn't really seem like any of the other B wing pilots have any synergy with Etahn and neither do any of the A-wing pilots so all I can think of to do differently would be to drop the attempt for synergy for just a more even distribution of points with a cheaper B and pricier A.
>>
>>51439226
sabine +ptl is a solid build even at PS5. she'll still be going before most generics.

I've found that people pretty much never fly it actually docked to the ghost, often they even only fly one or the other.
>>
>>51439309
i'm underwhelmed by the striker. I feel like it needs a different bar of upgrades.

i have always wanted to run a Jonus list, I built one a long ass time ago with 4 bombers. I agree that the missile and pedo spam can work, but I REALLY want to try out all these cool new bomb types -- plus there's that one guy that can deploy in front of him? That shit is dope!

I think he's a punisher.
>>
>>51439236
I've had good results with a pair of proton torp guidance chips punishers flying with jonus with crackshot and homing missiles.
should run much thensame with 2 bombers and 1 punishers.
everyone has seismic charges and jonus has an ion bomb jusy for utility.

fuck yes, that's what i like to hear!

I think surpisingly out of my 4 normal ties, three bombers and two odd balls, I have a decent spread to list buold with. The one thing I had wished I had was more cannons and crew cards to work with. I might just buy a Firespray again, or a lambda.


Looking forward to Kylo Ren's ship, even though I haven't been keeping up with what it can do yet.
>>
>>51440075
if you just want more cannona the m3a does come with an ion, mangler and Flechette cannons.
though its a Scum ship so dunno how much you want to by a ship just for its cards.

>>51435426
I don't think so, if it is, it's not in the comics. Also I think Dawn of the Jedi was supposed to be longer and to cover this kind of thing, along with the schism war, but it stopped when it was shutted down.

if you want a bomber list here's how'd do it with the ships you have. Basically just swapped my second punisher for tomax as your second bomber.
to fly this is a jousting list, deploy in close formation along one side of the board, makes flying into your side dangerous with your ion bomb.
Otherwise just pick something and hammer it with all your ordnance, jonus rerolls+guidence chips and proton torp rule mean you'll reliably throw 4 hits with each attack.

Fairly rare, extremely expensive and given they can be used in a lightsabre, probably kind of quasi-legal during the Empire era. Bit hard to really think of anything which would set them apart from an Ilum crystal
Though if you're just spitballing a few ideas, its mostly a quid-pro-quot of having a special quality, an equivalent damage and some kind of adjustment of the latter to avoid any gratuitous silliness, they're already fucking dangerous enough

That's why the one in Jewel of Yavin is being sold; an Imperial bureaucrat owns it, but now Sheev has made them contraband, he's trying to auction it off in the Outer Rim to turn his showpiece into some cash.

The Force is, in canon, created by life. Life creates it, and it also creates life in a great big circle of liiiiiiife.

Yoda even says to Luke that life creates the Force, which is just him repeating what he was told by some Priestesses on a planet known as the Wellspring of Life.

Write encounters involving vehicular combat. Maybe swoop bikes? Fights between two big repulsorsled platforms?

Mechanics can have a ton of uses in combat, too. Shutting doors to cut off enemies, manipulating machinery to hinder/kill them, etc.

Also consider making the non-combat PCs the focus sometimes. Maybe your mechanic has to do a lengthy repair job, while the other players hold off waves of Stormtroopers from advancing.

most places I've found are fine with proxied cards outside tournament games.

especially if you say you're trying out a new list idea.

as for where to get the cards you should have got crackshot in the imperial veterans box, the Tie phantom has fire crontrol system and Inquisitors tie has guidance chips.
Punisher is the only imperial ship with extra muntions.
