I should point out that the person who started this thread wrote that calculator.

Why do people like you even bother posting? Do you seriously think of that as a fix? It's fairly effective satire, isn't it? Reading any thread about the Defender always gives me the impression that a small but vocal minority genuinely wants GrimmyV's fix. I think you're reading far more into those threads posts than are actually there. Oh, I don't think so.

May I humbly suggest my Anti-Synergy List: Horton Salm (25) Autoblaster Turret (2) Garven Dreis (26) R5-P9 (3) Biggs Darklighter (25) R2-D6 (1) Draw Their Fire (1) Rebel Operative (16) Intelligence Agent (1) Total: 100 View in Yet Another Squad Builder

Here you go.

There are no "agility dice." There are agility value and defense dice. Obstructions and range bonuses add defense dice. Your agility value is unchanged, except for effects like R2-F2 or the Structural Damage crit. Edit: teh grammars

Following the pattern of "Blue Ace" and "Red Ace" it would obviously be "Ace Ace."

Ah, I was considering the "fat turret meta" to involve the large ship with boost+3PO/Isard archetype (along the lines of MajorJuggler's list obesity metric).

Do you mean Venus years? Wave 4, which brought the Phantom and the fat turret meta, came out in February 2014. That was about 570ish days ago. Venus has an orbital period of 224 days. 2.5 Venus years is... 560 days. So yeah, you must mean Venus years.

There are a couple things I need to do: update the XWS backend with the new data, and update how XWS is imported and exported because of the new subfactions that were introduced.

Yup, it's one or more Cool, someone should tell the "Yet another squad builder" the wording is wrong on Wired I'll let him know!

It's times like this that I wish this forum had a "Dislike" button.

You need to spoiler alert that noise

Yeah I really have no idea why fewer women play in this environment.

I'm not Voidstate, but have you tried clearing Safari's web cache and reloading the page? Sometimes that fixes issues with my builder.

There are a good number of Rebel-only or Rebel-mostly players out there. But I also have noticed Imperial fanaticism far more than anything else (Rebels as terrorists is totally a thing). Now that I think of it, I haven't seen fanaticism about Rebels or Scum (although Scum are still relatively new, and Boba Fett is his own niche). (And while I'm largely faction-neutral, TIE Fighter was in fact the best game ever)

So yeah... lots of new things. Thanks to Tipperary's work in https://community.fantasyflightgames.com/topic/183807-wave-8-what-we-know-and-how-we-know-it/ (and some Wookieepedia verification) I've added What We Know of Wave 8 to my builder, primarily pilots (not adding any of the unspoiled upgrades until we know more about them). I've probably also added several bugs in the process, so let me know if you find any. Builder URL in my sig. Sorry about the delay... whole lot of stuff to add. Fun fact: Hera's the first pilot to fly two different ships in this game!

For what it's worth, I am, and will have updates tonight after work.

Aye

His last name was mis-entered: it's "Bishop."

A Scum Aces pack with a different Kihraxz sculpt (instead of just a different paintjob) could be cool, though.

If I recall correctly, Drew's Whisper/Howl swarm was: "Whisper" (32) Veteran Instincts (1) Sensor Jammer (4) Intelligence Agent (1) Advanced Cloaking Device (4) "Howlrunner" (18) Veteran Instincts (1) Hull Upgrade (3) Academy Pilot (12) Academy Pilot (12) Academy Pilot (12)

I go into that subforum

As an aside, this post probably fits best in the Battle Reports forum; perhaps a mod can move it?

Oh man... I hate to break it to you but that wasn't me. I think that was some other Jordan? Gordon? I was flying Chewie and three Talas. (Also I don't know if I would self-describe as incredibly nice ) I did see your list and I thought it was awesome. I'm glad to see it did well!

And in the semifinals: - Whisper/Soontir/Doomshuttle beat Whisper/Howlrunner/AP swarm - Chiraneau/Whisper beat double IG
