    Basically, the Lancer frigate will never happen. In fact, it has probably been explicitly scrapped by Disney. 

    Something called a "Lancer frigate" is mentioned in the newcanon novel Before The Awakening.

     

    However, it's used by the First Order rather than the Empire - and may look a little different if it ever gets imagery.

     

     

    The Raider is the replacement as the "Anti-Squadron" Small Ship. As the Lancer was a bit Bigger than a CR90 which is what the Raider was made to Rival in X-wing and be the same scale as. It is also FFG's Original Ship design so that's pretty cool.

     

    Was gonna edit these post together but there is no delete post option so my bad on the Double post.

    I still enjoy the Dog and Pony show that FFG and Asmodee put on when they announced the merger about how they're so invested in the success of the Friendly Local Game Stores that are integral to their games.  So they force online vendors to jack up their prices by presumably giving them less of a discount than they used to receive when purchasing FFG products, yet FLGSes still can't get any **** stock in.

    No stores in my area received any U-Wings and only one got a small handful of TIE Strikers for X-Wing.

    One store here received a few copies of Correllian Conflict, but none of them know when they'll get any of the new wave of Armada in.

    Thanks, Asmodee!  You've really helped out the FLGSes out there!

     

    My FLGS got all its Armada Stock last week still no X-wing Rogue One stuff but it's been known to be delayed for the UK for whatever reasons until Next week.

    Guys Guys, you are all missing the God Combo. - I know its a Sato CR90 thread but....

     

    Neb-B support refit + Raymus + Optional Dual Turbolaser Turret (for extra help with the 1 red or if you get blank blacks) + Salvation. Blacks = 3 damage from Front arc and you are throwing 3 with Raymus + a reroll on 1 of them and then Dual Turbo for a little more insurance.

     

    Sato + Salvation = Good times.

     

    Every time I've used a CR90 except for one game that I can remember they just don't perform well enough compared to other things I prefer to field, maybe I should run them more but when I'm almost always vs Squadron lists and even worse now that Deci's are out Small Rebel ships get Destroyed pretty fast.

    As far as buying for upgrades goes - I only play Rebel for Armada and do not buy Imperial - there are a few cards that would be nice for certain lists but I just use my friends if needed. Unlike X-wing where I buy pretty much 1 of everything for cards.

     

    So no, buying everything for cards is not required. - 1 of each of your factions ships is nice because you will get 1 of each different Admiral then.

    Probably because they don't need to clarify BCC, and same with the XX-9/APT combo.

    You roll the dice, you use BCC 1 to reroll that dice.

    You don't like what you got.

    You use BCC 2 to reroll that dice again.

    I don't understand what the justification is for the notion that they can't do that. Just because it doesn't seem like they should be able to?

    If you have vader and leading shots on a ship, you can reroll all of those dice multiple times? Why wouldn't BCC x2 work?

    For the second one, you have two distinct critical effects that you resolve separately. You use APT to give them a damage card. It's not an extra damage that you deal face up before dealing damage from the related attack. It's a distinct critical effect separate from the other damage effects. XX-9 does the first two damage cards faceup on a crit. Also a distinct effect.

    There should be no confusion that they can and do work together to give 3 faceup damage cards on a successful attack that does 2 hull damage and allows for the resolution of both critical effects.

    Bevause Vader and leading shots are two different effects, 2 BCC are not same effects but different source and you cannot resolve the same "while" effect more than once during the same timing window (its in rules reference)

    I have also seen it ruled for stacking and against from FFG in different E-mails in different threads.

    Pretty sure BombingCC Doesn't stack? Isn't it one reroll per trigger up to unlimited number of reroll's if you have differing triggers for it.

    the devs have already said it stacks.

    by the rules you can have as many re-rolls as you have sources to trigger them.

    for non-unique cards having the same name does not matter its a different source.

     

     

    From Rules Reference:

    "A "while" effect can be resolved during the specified event and cannot occur again during the instance of the event"

     

    BCC : "While a friendly squadron with bomber at distance 1-5 is attacking a ship it may reroll 1 die"

     

    So no, they do NOT stack.

     

    They do stack, because although the event cannot occur again, there is no stated duration of the event. You resolve one, and then you resolve a different effect (that happens to have identical text) because the event in question has yet to conclude.

     

     

    The stated duration is "attacking" "While attacking" so during the attack only one can resolve. Where as with Yavaris you get once per your two attacks.

    It is possible to reroll that Black dice twice from two different bomber commands. I Just ask since yesterday I Play with friend. He re rolled two dice with hit and roll blank each time. He suggested tht if he had 2 gonzanti with BC he will perform much better.
