I like this card.
I wish there was a 29 point Corran Horn in an X-wing pair with "Whistler". Then I could fly:
Intense X-wing Corran (35)
Corran Horn (29) - X-Wing
Intensity (2), "Whistler" (2), Vectored Thrusters (2)You could use Intensity twice in a round if desired, because Intensity flips at the end of the Combat phase, not the start of the End phase like Corran Horn and "Whistler".

26 minutes ago, Praetorate of the Empire said:Interesting. I like the Evade action restriction. Many of the ships that aren't seen much have Evade, they could really enjoy this upgrade. I might look into it for the guys I play with, so I'll certainly follow the development of this card closely. Keep it up!
Thanks for your support.
2 hours ago, AwesomeJedi said:Gimballed Thrusters
Small ship only. Modification.
After executing a 4- or 5-straight maneuver, if you did not overlap an obstacle or ship, you may perform a free barrel roll action. You can equip this card only if you have the [evade] action icon.
Oh, yes, I forgot to add that this card costs 0 squad points.

29 minutes ago, Praetorate of the Empire said:Certainly include small-ship only
Yep.
30 minutes ago, Praetorate of the Empire said:Also, only 4- or 5- straights? Or would you include K-turns?
Just the staights. I want this to be the part of dogfights where your TIE or A-wing is flying super fast and it drifts/rolls to the side.
Thematically speaking, TIE Defenders can't do that.

What would you all think of this?

This would be for those poor TIE Fighters and Interceptors who want to be cool again. I based this off of @citruscannon's Vectored Thrusters in his XvT game mod, so give credit to him for the mechanic.
Squad Point Cost: 0 or 1?

I got an R3-M2 Lego figure from Toys R Us for spending at least $30 on Lego sets during Force Friday.
I made him a card:
This could lead to pretty nasty torpedo strikes. Is this card too cheap or expensive?

First you need to go to file > export. Then export it as an image suitabe for printing. Then, I put the cards on a Google Doc (Microsoft Word would work), do I can copy and paste the card onto the forum. That is how I upload cards with out using a hosting site.

Bumping this thread up instead of making my own.
How about a Torpedo Astromech with the Guidance Chips ability?
How about an astromech that gives you a green 3-speed straight?

If you want me to make a PDF, I can. It wouldn't be to much of a problem for me. Sorry if I sounded rude or anything.

I think so.
Remeber that if anyone has an idea for upgrade cards or pilot cards, please go ahead and make your ideas into cards (Strange Eons 3 recommended) and share them on this thread.

Pilots:
Upgrades:
Need about 2 more upgrades. I was thinking in at least 1 new <system> to go along with the new title. Something like "Cargo Scanners", a "System Jammer" or even a mini "Gravity Well Projector".
Arajen Turmen should say: At the start of the Combat phase, choose 1 other friendly ship at Range 1-2. Until the end of the phase, increase that ship's pilot skill by "2."
The "G" in XG-3 Customs Configuration should be lowercase to match the "g" in Xg-1 Assault Configuration.

Thank you.
4 minutes ago, Ghostrider58 said:I'm also think maybe 2 attack dice??? Not sure just kinda of putting it out there. Would the ship be able to take hull and shield upgrades?
Actually, some civilian models have no guns, but some are equipped with a single laser cannon, hence the one attack. However, this ship has a bullseye firing arc to make up for it. The option to take hull and shield modification upgrade cards are no concern because the ship would still not be broken with them.

9 hours ago, GLEXOR said:I thought it had 3 hull, otherwise this is overpriced.
upgrades:
•Beggar's canyon champion: EPT: When you reveal a maneuver, select an obstacle at range one that you are not overlapping, if it is at range one after your maneuver, and you did not overlap it, assign an evade token to your ship.
Cost: 2?
I changed it to two hull at at last moment hoping to compensate for the bullseye firing arc. Should I make the hull value 3?
1 hour ago, Magnus Grendel said:Beggar's Canyon Pilot sounds more like a title to me.
I'd probably just go with "After you execute a maneuver, if you did not overlap an obstacle, assigne an evade token to your ship if there is an obstacle at range 1.
The T-16 - certainly the 'boy racer' versions Luke and Biggs flew - probably ought to have Boost/Barrel Roll - maybe even the option of a free boost/roll. By comparison, whilst focus is a default action, I'd question if the civilian skyhopper would carry enough systems to qualify as 'target locking'!
'Bush Pilot' looks fine.
For named pilots, there are obvious 'classic' ones:
Luke Skywalker
Biggs Darklighter - a rather higher PS version with a better ability, I'd suggest! - something about 'clipping terrain' to give him a boost - sort of 'Dash Rendar but more so'
I might suggest one of the above as crew cards as copilots?
I'd agree with adding hits when in a bullseye arc - even with unmodified green dice is likely to do nothing.
If you wanted an EPT, then "Thread The Needle" sounds about right - it's a "I can fit, I can fit!" ability - which sounds like a one-use ability to reward you landing 'just so'.
My suggestion would be something along the lines of provided you didn't collide with a ship or overlap an obstacle, you may discard the card to get [bonus] for every 2 ships or obstacles at range 1 of you (rerolls? Extra dice?)
Yes, Luke needs to be a pilot.
Why don't we make this a community project? Anyone can submit cards for this expansion. It would help me, because I have school for most of the day so I don't have access to a computer until the evening. Plus, it would kind of be interesting because this has never been done before.

On 8/28/2017 at 5:41 PM, AwesomeJedi said:Hey, you know what would be cool?
The T-16 Skyhopper for ground battles.
Attack: 1 (Bullseye Firing Arc)
Agility: 2
Hull: 3
Shield: 0
Actions: Focus, Target Lock
Upgrades: Crew
Dial: like an X-wing with red 1 speed turns
This could be a training ship to practice "gitting gud" or for a "killing womp rats" mission.
I need ideas for upgrade cards.

"I used to bull's-eye womp rats in my T-16 back home."
Please make and share your own ideas for upgrade and pilot cards (Strange Eons 3 recommended) on this thread to help us make a community custom expansion pack for the T-16 Skyhopper!
This ship has a bullseye firing arc for thematic reasons.

Good work @citruscannon! I have never played the real game because I am of a newer genereration, but this X-wing mod looks neat! I look forward to seeing you develop this.
I was just wondering how you are handling ion mechanics since the X-wings can take Ion Torpedoes.

10 minutes ago, That Blasted Samophlange said:See.. when I watched it, I saw the Immobilizer crew reverse the gravity field when the y-wings fired proton torpedoes at it. Those "flares" were said protons being confused/repelled by said gravity.
Sorry, wrong movie. See the top.
24 minutes ago, EdgeOfDreams said:The mod slot cards that already exist for Huge ships (automated protocols, ordnance tubes, and optimized generators) are way stronger than any of the large-ship-only mods.
8 minutes ago, defkhan1 said:They don't need them. The current Huge Ship Only modifications are so good I wouldn't take anything else anyway.
Besides, huge ships already have a built-in APL. If you slam into a huge ship, you have to roll for damage like an asteroid.
Why not? Even if the Huge Ship only Modifications are better, that was not my point.
-
After watching the Cat and Mouse Clone Wars Episode, I realized that those flares that the Stealth Ship launches were similar to what the Countermeasures upgrade would do. So it go me thinking, what if huge ships could take large ship only Modifications? What if huge ships could have Anti-Pursuit Lasers to protect themselves from strafing run like they had in stories? It is so thematic. What do you think?

Ooh, are we talking about X-wing fixes?

22 hours ago, Odanan said:Assault Configuration = title looks like it adds a cannon slot and allows you to shoot it with a weapons disabled token.
Look really closely on the Xg-1 Assault Retrofit on the image @Rakaydos posted. With it, the Alpha-Class Star Wing gets 2 cannons!

These cards are actual size.
If you copy these cards and paste the in Microsoft Word or Google Docs, they can be printed on A4 size paper, or done professionally if you care that much.
If you need the backs of the cards, here they are. If you guys want, I can create a Google Doc with the cards on them ready to print so you guys don't have to do any work.

Updated the top. New cards added.

Hi, my name is Joe and I play X-wing. I was introduced to this game when my uncles brought a game they had been playing to my house while they were visiting. They knew I liked Star Wars game and wanted to know if I wanted to play a game with them. This in fact, was my first minatures game I had ever played and I enjoyed it. I thought the mechanics of the game and model quality were great. I got the core set a mother later and have been playing a couple of years now. I still play with my brother and play the game when we have nothing else to do.
