Why does FFG only care about OT?
naitsirk replied to goncardoso's topic in Star Wars: Imperial Assault
Only cares about OT because precuels are trash... perhaps. -

In wich hour could we expect an article? -
Well, with the new vp system and new uniques and powerfull fixes, the game is changing a lot. Raise the army limit to 50 is not a good idea. I think ffg is balanced game with command cards so super damage uniques are countered with special command cards like the hunter ones (a good combo of this cards actually can take down han in two attacks). My point is, obviously han and chewie are not competitive at the moment, but with a few changes (even a cost reduction like vader) they could be truly competitive figures. Just imagine han at 8 points and with some extra mini helps, i think i buy it. The bad is whenever more uniques become powerfull and cheaper, more unique based list to the meta. Is hard to balance this game.

How to beat a driven by hatred vader?
naitsirk replied to naitsirk's topic in Star Wars: Imperial Assault
You can use unshakable at start of any of your activations so is not that hard clean stun until end of the round. Of course there will be combos to bring him down but i think actually is more powerfull than jedi luke. Is incredible how the rerolls increase his average attack, i didn't see that in paper. Just imagine a list with palpatine and some officers in wich he can "activate" few times (his own, officers move, palpy attack order and in the end round) this is potentially 3 miniature kill per round or a big one. I can't wait to see what combos people who knows skirmish better than me will be bring to the meta, and what other people do to counter. A thing i notice is that his command card is losing power (well never was too powerfull, but brutality helps to trigger actions) -
How to beat a driven by hatred vader?
naitsirk replied to naitsirk's topic in Star Wars: Imperial Assault
In my last game using hatred vader, he kill the rancorn in one round, then he kill shayla varad and 3 weeqays while carryng an objetive token... so a 13 points figure gains around 30 points. Obviously i won the match 40-24 . The point is i'm starting to think they really made a little op the new vader. What happen if the next meta we only see vaders? I don't like this but there is no fix unless all the new stuff and fixes makes the meta more playable for more figures. Pray. -
If you look at ig88 and vader, they didn't change his habilities or surges too much, i think the fixes are in the way that gives more actions per round to use his powers: Vader: 3'5 actions per round Luke: 3 actions per round Igg 88: 2'5 actions per round We can expect han and chewie to be around 3 actions oer round (2 of them that causes damage). The rest of the cards are ok only too expensive for his action utility.

Obviously with a good scum hunter list he will be die. But try this with rebels and you will see that i say. -
Skirmish Fixes For Older Deployments
naitsirk replied to cnemmick's topic in Imperial Assault Skirmish
Look awesome... but keep in mind his command card (2 attack with +1surge and using all battle discipline). It sounds to me like a auto win "this guy that would keep the objetive, take a wirst rocket and get out; you will attack in your next activation with focus? Come on you are stunned now madafakaaaa!" Sounds hilarius yes, but the oponent will cry after this. Also if you add jabba to the ecuation, focus boba + extra attack. The hell for boba's enemies. -
Just that you say was my previous homemade fix for han: The main problem with this, after months of plays is that simply people don't shoot han.
-
I think my imagine fix is also themathic. What things han do? -He pointed people with his blaster and if the situation go wrong he shoot (so he can shoot at the start of his activation) or flee to fight in a more adventage situation (1move and 1 recover) -he is a slippery guy if the things don't go as he wish (so if he doesn't roll evades that let him use cunning, he may prefer running away 2 spaces) come on how many times we have seen han running and shooting the enemy back? He does this all time. Perfect situation to trigger return fire more thematic than dodge and stay frost. This is han solving troubles haha Also the fix contains all @cnemmick said (10 points figure, 2 attack but don't 2 of 3 dies and his hability trigger more offten, about 50% of times if he receives close combat attacks)

How to beat a driven by hatred vader?
naitsirk replied to naitsirk's topic in Star Wars: Imperial Assault
It seems like a tons of resources in a desesperate attack that only would damage 3-5 on vader. Rebels are actually one step behind the other factios (perhaps two against scum) at least in my personal experience. -
Against the odds. -2 points. Attachment. Han solo (scoundrel) only. You lose "distracting". At the start of your activation you may perform an attack using one green and one blue die or gain 1 movement point and recover 1*. while defending, if you haven't any evade result, you may retire all defense results and move up to 2 spaces. Limit once per round. What do you think? It solves the major han's issues: mobility, action economy and he can trigger "return fire" more often if he moves correctly.

How to beat a driven by hatred vader?
naitsirk replied to naitsirk's topic in Star Wars: Imperial Assault
JUst tuday i had my last encoubter against ultra vader. My list was obi wan, hera, gideon, 3po, 2eSab and rRangers. I use a big part of my army and some powerfull commands (assesinate, tools for the job...) to try kill him when comes into my troops and at the end of the match i lost with 18-40 and vader still alive. He kills hera,gideon, 2 sabs and 2 rangers... And he causes around 9 damage in obiwan. I felt like a child without escape. I really like vader but it seems a little op to my actual rebel lists. I hope this all change with the release of HotE and the other packs.... -

Yeah and add jabba and a bantha to this and vader fall with some focus and stramples but i'm asking about rebels that in my opinion they are a little bit worse than scum. Don't make me wrong, in our plays vader has down sometimes even with no scum, but it takes a lot of effort by the poor rebels for only 13 points. He actually worth this. Not when he was 18 and if you focused on kill him it will bring you the victory. 5 points is a world in this game -
Hi everyone! After a few friendly skirmish with this upgrade (with zillo of course) my group and i decided to ask a simple question: How can rebels confront this driven by hatred guy? The lists we use vader are built around with some guards and officers; his droids and officers; dewbacks and eJet troops... and all this people in different combinations. The point is vader looks unnstoppable now for only 13 points for our rebel lists (with eRangers, Luke, Leia, 3po, gideon, han, hera....in different ways) and all time one of us play with vader, the match result in a victory for the empire, no matter who control the rebels. (of course we don't talk about scum lists with hunters, only empire vs rebels) Anyone have an advice or some combination that could counter this guy with a rebel list?
