  1. Hello, where can I find the different country national rankings? Spanish is here: http://www.edgeent.com/v2/edge_nrep.asp?eidm=9 But I want to find the others... USA, UK, ... THank you.
  2. A defender is 36% more expensive in points than the B wing, now tell me if you can field 4 defenders in a 100 point squad. 3 defenders are 18 hull/shields with 3 dice to defend and its skill is 1. (this means 3 shots if no defender is killed after Bwings shoots) 4 Bwing are 32 hull/shileds with 1 die to defend and its skill is 2. (this means 4 shots before any defender shoots) I foresee a defender is dead before shooting.
  3. Dissapointing maneuver dial, it is quite predictable, having turns in red... and just having straight green maneuvers... the white koigran is not enough to balance that short maneuverability. I still preffer using a firespray, tougher and more unpredictable in its movements.
  4. DId you already discussed about draw? Because IMHO having the exactly same scoring to get a draw is ridiculous for two reasons: 1, it is very very hard for it to ocurr. 2, to lose a match for 1, 2 or 3 points... is very dissapointing. Did you consider changing the draw scoring range to 11 or less? I mean difference for each player destroyed points, if it is below 11 points it is a draw and if it is 33 or more it is a complete victory, so being between 11 and 33 is a modified victory. What do you think?
  5. Good one, i like: Howlrunner + swarm tactics Backstabber Dark Curse 2 black with VI alpha or Howlrunner + swarm tactics 2 black + swarm tactics 2 alpha academy This way you have some ships to crash with.
  6. There is no official solution to this topic? Can anyone clarify me what you conclude? The answer is no for this reason? Q: If a ship does not have a dial assigned to it when it activates during the Activation phase, can it resolve any effects that refer to its maneuver dial? A: No. For example, a HWK-290 with an ion token cannot use the effect of Navigator to change the speed of its maneuver. thank you.
  7. Hello, I am a Spanish veteran player and I always miss advanced tie in tournaments, only is used to field Vader but the 21 points a basic advanced tie cost dissuade all player from using it. Now there is no need of choosing an advanced tie if you want to bring missiles, there are other chances. There is opinion that missiles and torpedoes are not as effective as they should, just one more dice (and negating an extra defense dice when cast at range 3). There are some extra effects for each missile but usually they doesn't worth the points they cost. They are just a one time use things... and 4 o 5 points are a lot. Anyway if you think on field a bomber, Awing or advance tie always comes to this: advanced tie 21 + 4/5 (missile/torpedo) a wing 17 + 4/5 (missile/torpedo) bomber 16 + 4/5 (missile/torpedo) But people take into account that the 1 or 2 of initiative doesn't guarantee to be able to shot the missiles. So people tendo to choose: advanced tie 23 + 4/5 (missile/torpedo) a wing 19 + 4/5 (missile/torpedo) bomber 18 + 4/5 (missile/torpedo) If you don't load those ships with some upgrades and weapons they are not useful, even sometimes that imply to field other ships to have a TL free action or a skill to be able to reroll the attack dice. In conclusion if you think about how many point do you need, usually you find more trustable to rely on a regular xwing for 21 points or 2 tie fighters for 24 points. Is there any chance to improve/change this? Is FFG going to do something regarding this? because now we see that Imperial aces expansion is close, but interceptors were a little expensive for an alpha 18 points but now they show an interceptor with 6 initiative and 22 points, they are very good man, but what about those other ships? In fact now we are starting to see that ywings are being replaced for HWK since: ywing 18 + ion turret = 23 HWK 16 + ion turret = 21 but if you want to field a hwk 19 + 5 = 24 then you have a 4 initiative able to give a 12 initiative bonus. Much better isn't it? So... what about something like this?
