Attachments and fixes

[Mushaa 2]

Hi all,

 

This is not so much a rule questions as it is a suggestion. The IG-88 "fix" is out and the Vader "fix" is coming, and both of these are in the form of attachment. This inhibits those deployment cars using existing attachment since you can only have 1 attachment per deployment card according to the FAQ page 10.

 

My question is this: Would it be an idea to allow up to two attachment to a single deployment card IF one of these attachments were unique to that deployment card and the other general? For example should it be possible to use the "new" IG-88 while still giving him the headhunter attachment? or would this be too powerful?

This would allow FFG to use attachments to help certain heroes/villains to be played more in the skirmish game using unique attachments to said heroes/villains and still maintain the possibility of using certain attachment combinations.

 

What do you guys think?

I often look at all the Skirmish Upgrades available to Mercenaries and lament either their cost or effects. I think one >0pt Upgrade on top of the "fix" Upgrade would be a really neat rule. That being said, the first thing I would do is throw Prey On The Weak on the new IG-88 and call it a day.

This is not really a rules question.. but anyway:

I don't see allowing two skirmish upgrades per deployment card happening, because it would create combos that have not been considered during development, and more than that, would create combos that have been known to not be possible during development and thus needed no consideration.
