I think their full name is "Coastal Defender Trooper" or something, so I think they're amphibious/semi-amphibious garrisoning - like when you have a facility at or near a shoreline. The wook says they're tropical specialized though, so they probably also do rainforests, glades, etc. If it's hot and wet, the Shoretroopers are there.

Thoughts on this list?

Ryad, x7, predator, tie mk. 2

Rexler Brath, x7, veteran instincts, tie mk 2

Duchess, adaptive ailerons, lightened frame, juke.

100pts even.. the defenders hang out together up the side of the board, duchess squirrels her way into flank shots as available.

The only Striker worth flying at all is Sabacc.

His PS is low enough for Vess and Ryad level so you can safely shoot/strip evades to shoot aces and the Alpha strike is so big they will have to ignore your defenders if they don't want potentially 7+ dice on a single shot in their face.

>>51174667
U-wing maybe? Can get it to 3 dice with the title and a stealth device to make sure it lives long enough to get use out of her, plus if you use her the turn you want to flip you get a nice white flip. Ghost also seems like an alright option for the same reasons though with hp instead of agi.

Thinking of flying Rey and Miranda at the next LGS tourney. What's a good build for the two?

Alternatively I was thinking of a U-Wing instead of Miranda if I can get one in time, or Jan in the HWK.

Stealth device are never worth it on ships without three agility.

I prefer sabacc to duchess. Frees up points too, so try putting expertise on Brath. Lets him actually use his ability quite often. And use the focus for defense if he really needs it.

Fun as hell. The generic pilots kind aren't though, you really should use Redline or Deathrain otherwise they are way too expensive to field even in a casual game. It's a big lumbering brick that hurts every turn it's alive, but it doesn't have a place in serious competition because you can get a high end ace or Defender for the same or fewer points. If your local casual game night 'meta', for lack of a better term, features lots of large-base ships it'll have a field day - If you can keep it alive.

Pretty sweet model imo, and it comes with two copies of both Extra Munitions and Twin Ion Mk.II.

sup /tg/, I'm a new player looking for advice.

I was recently tried X-wing, found it pretty fun, and a friend gave me a YV-666 ship and a bunch of cards for free since I said i wanted to try out scum.

I'm looking to make a list. I have been given some advice towards making this.

This is what I flew today, and it did pretty well, but I have 1 point left to spend and I'm not sure where-

I really like the Fang Fighters, and I'm not sure what is the best way to spend 1 point.

- Maneuvering fins on Bossk. Since i am PS 9, I might be able to put it to use.

- Intertial Dampener on Bossk, Stopping once, or doing a zero while stressed might be helpful

- Burnout Slam. I could use this to zoom away once.

What do you guys think? Fins seem the weakest, but they are also the only one that isn't 1-use.

There's not really anything wrong with saving that 1 point, if you're up against someone who's got a full 100 point list you get to pick who has initiative and that could be useful if he's also got pilot skill 5 guys so you can choose to move yours after him and arc dodge him.

I played today against a list called 'Hot Cops', it was Darth Vader and someone named Rear something, they were both PS9, I was explained how initiative bids work. I was told that most initiative bids are 2 points or larger.

Also, I was told that PS 5 isn't common, but PS 4 is. All 3 of those options seem like they would work, but IDK which covers the weak points in my list. I know Bossk eats aces, and the Fangs are for dealing with Swarns. What is the list weak to?

My epic list has every ship in it at PS 4 5 and 6, but I haven't played epic, just listbuilding.

-2 Juke Glaives
- Colonel Vessery with Swarm Leader
- 2 Deadeye Bombers with Protons and bombs (EM)

Can someone tell me how I'm supposed to stat and play HK-47? Is he a heavy gunner like Canderous or is he a stealth guy?

In KOTOR 1, his feat progression is so shit. I do make sure to level up his DEX when I get to upgrade an attribute, since he is supposed to be a ranged character.

What gunfire path do I choose? I gave him the Snipe Shot path, but even with Mission in stealth mode, it's such a shitty attack. Do I have to avoid that altogether and go with Rapid Shot?

I always benched him in KOTOR 2 as well, but I haven't played that game since I was 18, so I don't remember what I did when I leveled him.

Pilot skill is always 5.
Deal random ship: (X-wing, Y-wing, TIE fighter, TIE advance, TIE interceptor, Headhunter)
Deal one random 2 or 3 point upgrade (torpedo, missile, cannon, turret, system, or illicit)
Deal one random dial ((X-wing, Y-wing, B-wing, TIE fighter, TIE advance, TIE interceptor, Headhunter)

You get some very weird ships out of it.

Looks pretty good, 3-4 of these suckers sneaking into your hanger bay and clamping detonators all over you know and love should let PC's know they've been habitually pissing off someone with resources beyond their wildest dreams.
Course like every GM since time began, you've got to be careful with NPC's like this, if they do manage to kill a few of them... they get the gear and use it! I have some deep seated regrets using Storm Commandos in the past, but at least they never found the TIE Hunters hidden nearby.


In other musings, been watching Gun Jesus and the Bergman pistols.
Think the No.5 is very starwarsy, given it was being produced around the same time as the Mauser C96 it has some similar features common to the automatic pistols of that era (magazine in front of trigger)
Though unlikely to ever end up as a blaster due to their rarity.
>>
Im considering a list with two protectorate starfighters, using their top two pilots, fearless and title for each (30 and 28 points each) and then asajj ventress with the 2 point crew who trades stress for evade, black market splicing tools and veteran instincts... possibly with a rigged cargo shoot thrown in so i can poop on things.

Yes, i know i should really learn proper names for things. I will work on that.

The list looks fun, any thoughts on it though?
>>
>>51177378
It's probably because of the way the math works in this game when you go elite.

Either that, or they have something planned. Maybe a title card or something like that which would cost 1 or 2 points.

Bombs are pretty hot right now. Imps and Scum don't have access to Sabine for more free damage, but the meta-warping squad is x7 Defenders, which hate to just be assigned damage, and tend to have a fairly predictable flight plan, especially the variants based on PTL.

Bombers are slightly more popular than Punishers in that regard, but if you can make it work make it work.

Krennic's the director of a very expensive high-value skunkworks project. It keeps an eye on Krennic, it enables boots on the ground for if/when something goes horribly wrong, and it lets those cunts in the ISB know who's in charge of Intelligence on this project.

Well, there's more than four of them most of the time, so not a HSLD as Clone Commandos but they're pretty operator. IIRC somebody earlier said they actually had military spec ops guys in the armor to get their mannerisms right and they're pretty stone cold. They're also highly effective for faceless imperial goons.

Technically I think Krennic is the director of many imperial skunkworks projects, he was the Advanced Weapons Research director, a division under ImpInt.

So he's either a spook pretending to be an egghead or an egghead pretending to be a spook - but either way he's not a combat operative. Which is why he gets his own shuttle full of a fireteam of freakin' Cyborg Commandos for when he needs people shot. But he also carries a space revolver for when he needs to shoot people himslef.

You don't remember her having a reaction when Han died? And while she has the same potential, she probably was too busy acting as a diplomat and politician to develop her connection to the Force. Just like in Legends.
>>
>>51179211
Her reaction was hardly more severe than any other movies' "I know something terrible has happened because true love," and there were plenty of novels where Leia ended up getting some force training.
>Leia was skilled in the use of telekinetic powers such as Force Push, Force Pull and Saber throw, as well as in using the Force to plant herself firmly in place. Leia exhibited a talent for telekinetically controlling the air paths taken by fog, being able to manipulate it at great speeds, allowing the Millennium Falcon to race through it without losing visibility prior to the onset of the Dark Nest crisis.[12] In 40 ABY, Leia was able to telekinetically hold the Millennium Falcon together, against the pressure caused as it crashed through the atmosphere of Coruscant.

Oh, Leia knows all about the Jedi and the Force. It's a problem.

See, the Force is something that happens to other people. Space wizards, mystic hermits, a lost clan of warriors raised from childhood, whatever. Not her.

So when Luke says, "You're strong with the Force", Leia thinks "Neat. Well, I'm also running a goddamn rebellion here, so can your rock-moving powers wait just a minute? Cool? Cool."

Can you really imagine Leia meditating in a swamp to try and gain insights into the interconnections of all life? That woman has stuff to do - real, important stuff, not moving rocks and talking to the wrinkled-up ghosts of the assholes who let the war happen in the first place.

Think it'd be reasonable for a solitary Death Trooper to be guard detail for an Imperial Intelligence officer? I figure Krennic was important enough to warrant a whole squad, but someone lower down the chain might just get one.
>>
>>51183829
I think if you are lower down the chain, you are likely to be awarded a death trooper more for bodyguard and 'loyalty' issues. So I'd imagine that the smallest unit would probably be two, to give some oversight over the other dude, make sure neither are corrupt, and pop a cap in eachother's ass if needed. They may be super troopers, but they're still human.

They're apparently screened heavily for fanatical loyalty and reliability, they're the cream of the crop of the Stormtrooper Corps.

Epic limits you to 12 of the same type of small ships, so unless he was paying 30 bucks a piece for those TIEs he spent a ton of money on extra models he can't field and even taking every single unique and upgrading them to the gills he's still going to be at least like 50 points short.

In fact here's the solid numbers, sticking to the 12-of-a-ship-type legal limit and using only the most expensive upgrades the most you can get to is 275 points. If you were doing 200 point games you'd be fine I guess and you could pretty easily slap in one of pretty much anything to get to 300, maybe cut some upgrades to get in Vader in his advanced for fluff, but no pure fighter swarm unless you want to be at a full ships worth of point disadvantage.

He's good with calculating odds, just like C-3PO. Unlike C-3PO, he's also a pretty brutal fighter. So:

They draw from both NuCanon and EU Canon as a toolbox for creating your own adventures, so they're as canon as you want them to be.

So technically no, but somebody at Disney/Lucasfilm has to approve the content that gets put in them. Pablo has tweeted very favorably about the old system.

Speaking of Pablo tweeting, he linked to this chain a couple days ago. Someone going through the R1 visual guide and comparing it to old WEG d6 information. Neat easter eggs. https://twitter.com/hishgraphics/status/819355839832027137

Hish is a professional artist who's done some Star Wars work. Awesome dude. Have played games with him.

But yeah, all us old WEG gamers can't help but notice how much of the old stuff is getting dredged up. Bill Slavicsek, who wrote a lot of the WEG stuff, named most of the alien races in the original trilogy.

He didn't steal it because everyone would chase him to hell and back for it, and who would he have sold it to if he couldn't keep it? Everyone that would have been interested in it was his enemies.

I think there's room for Sith who are more about self-empowerment and rising up from weakness and oppression. Then they're corrupted by their baser impulses, of course, but at least show that spiral.
