It would seem that the Albino Void Bison is the only ship with the proper upgrade slots to do this. I remember a discussion about AC and Tactician and cancelling dice just to cause stress. The consensus being that it wasn't worth losing your attack damage just for the stress. With Gunner though, you won't have to miss out on damage. And even if you can't catch someone at Range 2, you still have a consistent damage with Gunner and AC.

Any Phantom hit by Ten is not worthy of the name. The B-wing is SO easy to out fly. True

I've also been wondering if Ten Numb will finally be worth running. I'm just not 100% convinced that he'll be worth 35 points. Then again, free crits are free crits. Even better that they can't be avoided. I'd add VI to further make phantoms cry.

I thought of this today, and I don't recall ever seeing this discussed. OGP (21) + Accuracy Corrector (3) + Gunner (5) + Tactician (2) + Engine Upgrade (4) (35 points) On your first attack (at Range 2), use AC to cancel dice results and choose to add 0 [hits]. Defender receives a stress token. Gunner performs second attack. Ac modifies to 2 [hits]. Defender receives another stress token. In total, the defender takes 2 hits and 2 stress, and you're free to use your action to boost or just to feel less sting after performing a red maneuver. Any thoughts?
