Engine upgrade + Autothrusters anyone?
APL + Ion Projector?
I misunderstood this at first as well. The second mod is in addition to the smug comp mod
-
-
Why not? Range 3. Should work.The sad part is Finn doesn't work with Autothrusters.
Because currently there is no ship that is capable of carrying a crew member and has a natural boost action. Thus no ship that can carry Finn can take autothrusters.
Why not? Engine upgrade gives you the Boost icon on your action bar and Autothrusters says you can only equip if you have boost action icon.


Go ahead, slap two modifications onto one ship
hint:you can't
Oh but you can....
Never mind.... nothing to see..... move along
for some reason I thought the smugglers comp wasn't a modification

http://xwing-builder.co.uk/just gave me a random squad with:
Rebel Operative2

1
Rebel Operative/HWK-290 (16)
WED-15 Repair Droid (2)
Action: Spend 1 energy to discard 1 of your facedown Damage cards, or spend 3 energy to discard 1 of your faceup Damage cards.You can't get much worse!
WED-15 is has the "huge ship only" text, Targeting Coordinator does not but still uses energy.
Soooo that's a bug then...
-
This is great good work!.
My first little play with it and I think the Docked Phantom has a bug as it wouldn't let me stay docked during the second planning phase.... or user error (EBCAK)

You can't go wrong with the Zahn books. Best non-movie Star Wars out there.
I'm looking forward to his next installment

As pointed out by GLEXOR in the HOTR thread there is something fishy about the rendered image of Poe Dameron's Black One:

There are two Astromech slots... is this the fix

Obviously not, but I thought it would be interesting to see which two little droids would give you an amazing advantage... hypothetically.
Have at it.
I highly doubt we are getting to astros
errrr... that was implied in my first post.
-
I can see that my first thoughts were the same as everyone else's with an R2/R2 astro combo...
...even my second go to combo has been said R2 astro/BB-8... the difference being I would put this on "Blue Ace" to get an amazing turn around un-stressed with the hard one boost.
That then gave me the idea of R2-D6, EPT giving droid on "Blue Ace" to really open up possibilities...

The front of the top wing DOESN'T line up with the back of the bottom one in the 3D render though. Probably not the case on the sculpt, but on the digital representation of it they don't line up right.
The sculpt is different, they needed to do a new sculpt to put BB-8 in the astromech hold. If you look at the picture of the box, you can see the same issue there. I understand that it's a 3D render, but if they used that to make the new sculpt, than the physical model will have the same problem.
This is not physical model, this is 3D render. They already have a mould for T-70 X-wing, and only need to make another color scheme.
No, they are way too far forward. Take a look at the picture of the individual model and you should see what I mean.
What was wrong with them? Are the bottom wings not forward enough?They are probably fixing the X-wing model, if you look at the announcement, the wings are improperly placed on the model. If they didn't know before the article came out, they did a few days later when I sent them an email about it, then one of their customer support workers forwarded it to the proper party.
Having started out with a sculpt of the ship that only needs a tweak to the droid socket, how likely do you think it is that they put the wings in a completely different place vs how likely do you think it is that there might be something wrong with the presentation of the render?
This is like the best troll post... too far forward... good one!
Like you didn't know that they are staggered so that when they close they make a complete wing shape.


You're right... you're right... don't go on about!!!


The top wings are too far back. There appears to be a second astromech compartment in front of BB-8.
But not in this image:

Am I late to the party and is this common knowledge?

Hence the off centre cockpit and blind side sensor array
http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Millennium_Falcon
For Star Wars: The Force Awakens: Incredible Cross-Sections, the author Jason Fry intended for the book to include information about the freighter series being able to act as a cargo pusher, but was unable to get the image in time.[15]
-
I did originally wonder if this U-Wing thingymabob was more of a transport rather than a snubfighter, but I guess not.
The cockpit section is very Y-Wing-ish.
It reminds me of the snow speeder
I just don't get the reasoning behind the four engines. On the X-wing they separate but why four for this?
-
After you perform a slam disable weapons hence the disable weapon token
That's part of the SLAM action and doesn't need to be noted on the upgrade.
True

Maybe they could remove the PWT and cost it cheaply. It makes sense since the turret broke while Finn was using it
Maybe that's Finn's crew card ability "Lock the Primary Weapon to the Forward Arc and ......." plays well with Rey
-
That's the first one I saw too, but I think it's more likely M9-G8
Would make more sense. I bow to your superior force sensitivity.

Does Kanan remove the stress from the TFA falcon title ability?
Why Experimental Interface if you don't have an "Action" card in mind?
To potentially free up the EPT slot for something else, was not sure about Push the Limit in there.
Marksmanship maybe to give her more punch as its an action for the EI
Experimental interface only works with an upgrade card that has an action header... e.g. Lando, Leebo

Looks like the second of the Disney Droid Factory Box set has reached the game to join R5-X3

(R4-) M9 looks like it is being released in the Heros of The Resistance Expansion
From wookieepedia: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/R4-M9
R4-M9 was an Imperial agromech droid of the R4-series, tasked with vehicle and computer maintenance, before being deployed on the Star Destroyer Devastator. While stationed on the Devastator, he was used by the Galactic Empire and accompanied the 501st Legion ordered by Darth Vader in order to pull data concerning the stolen Death Star plans from the Tantive IV 's computer banks during the Imperial capture of the Rebel Blockade Runner.
So a New Hope droid boxed for Force Awakens then

What do you think its ability will be?

Can I suggest that instead of a 10 x 10 grid you adopt an 11 by 11. This gives you both the advantage of having a centre square but also you can get approximately 11 Large bases along the edges of the 3' by 3' play area.
EDIT: also would o, O, d and D help indicate size of obstacle.
e.g.
a b c d e f g h i j k ↘ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 2 _ _ o _ _ _ _ o _ _ _ 3 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ o _ _ 5 _ _ _ _ _ O _ _ _ _ _ 6 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 _ _ o _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ o _ _ _ 9 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 _ ↑ _ _ ↑ ↑ _ _ _ _ _ 11
