1. You've got too much BS to remember that you end up forgetting to use effects.
2. If your opponent messes up your interaction somehow you've got a bunch of worthless upgrades.
This is a great point. I played a new guy last week that tried to run an all synergy squad with Kyle hwk and Shara. I just ran a bunch of TIE fighters and crushed him. I felt bad about it so I tried to help him as much as possible and explained that when your whole list relies on the synergy it gives your opponent a clear target.

All FFG needs to do to fix turret secondary's are make range bonuses apply. TLT becomes a bit worse and all the range 1-2 turrets become much better. They would probably have to errata Autoblaster to say that you don't get the range bonus though. The biggest problem with all non TLT turrets is that 3 attack is just not reliable anymore so paying extra for it does not make much sense.

I really like QuickDraw with Draw their fire, FCS, title and LWF. If you add in Targeting Sync and pair with Tomax it makes for a devastating alpha.

No more slammed bombs
That would kill the K-wing other than Miranda. I think something like PTL does have merits though. What if Advanced Slam gave you a stress token if used to drop a bomb? It would make back to back bombing runs much more difficult and also leave the bomber vulnerable the next turn.

I don't much care for TLT spam but I don't really think TLT needs changed. All the range 1-2 turrets should be made 1-3 then there would be options other than TLT. They could also just release some titles for turret ships that give a price reduction on turrets under 6 points.
I am also of the option that the Autothursters mechanic should be made into a core rule for all out of arc shots(but not range 3 in arc) and the card itself be banned. I hate that only a select few ships get the option to take it but on the ones that can its auto include. I love seeing pilots like Vader but because he can't take Autos he might as well not exist. The Star Viper being the Autothurster expansion pack is a joke.

Lando would finally be useable flying the Falcon!!! Do a green and give anyone you want an action. Cracken would be pretty dope as well.
Yeah Carnor would be king of this meta.

2 minutes ago, Astech said:I think Biggs is an attack ability, so not encompassed by the limitless range. Manaroo goes back to full strength, so Paratanni would still be a thing. I also think Cassian would be a bit stronger, as would Intelligence agent and Squad Leader. It's a different meta, but very similar to the current one.
I believe the OP meant secondary weapons still have range restrictions but that's it.

Let's hope this never ever happens. Besides the obvious Biggs brokenness the Protectorates would be pretty powerful. Always get a free evade if both ships have arc. Old terry stripping tokens from the other side of the mat. Then there is Kannan pilot reducing attacks from anywhere. Jonas rerolls on all secondary shots. Howlrunner on all tie attacks while she sits in a corner. There is a pretty good reason most abilities have range restrictions.

I think most beginners don't have enough of a plan for what they need to do to get the engagement they want. It's not alway a great idea to rush forward and joust.

From what I can tell it looks like there is still one unaccounted for. Second row 5th from the right. It is in between the Croc turret and quick release cargo locks so it's probably epic only.

Thanks to Gold Squadron for streaming Hoth! Great coverage. Congrats to William on the win!

Bump.

Also, "Gyro and Latts" should be a buddy-space-cop sitcom.
You are right. For some reason I thought Gyro was 3 points. I like "Latts and Gyro." better flow. Lol
"Latts and Gyro. A Star Wars Story."

I caught that as well but figured it was a typo due to being 101 points

29 minutes ago, StevenO said:Very good of you to provide some photographic evidence. I guess it would have been better had you showed the damage while the ship was still in the packaging to prove you didn't accidently break it but at least we can see it's missing.
I'm just saying all of that because FFG is generally seen has having had some wonderful customer service that may just send a replacement for the entire ship. The sad thing is that some may abuse that generosity and have indicated as much on these forums.
I used to sing the praises of FFG customer service but it has gone sharply down hill recently. At the beginning of January I bought a StarKiller mat that had bubbles up one side because it was not stretched properly. It took FFG about 2 months to replace it and when they did they sent a StarKiller box with a Deathstar 2 mat inside. I already had the DS 2 mat or I would have just left it there but now I fear I will be waiting another 2 months to get the correct mat. I have offered to send the incorrect mat back but still waiting on a reply. It's been about 2 weeks.

Just change the boarding party to go off after you execute a maneuver instead of start of combat.

Congratulations pheaver on the System open win! Thanks for getting the Good Guys on the board!

Nope. FFG needs to hire the dude that does the Euro streams to cover all the big events. He does a fantastic job.

I know Howard was playing old fenaroo but do you have any idea of the other lists?

What would it take to bring the Firespray out on the table more?
in X-Wing

I think almost any small bump would be enough for it to see more play. Scum Boba has a fantastic ability. The extra crew and a few more greens would be plenty.
