BoxerlessBossk 141 Posted July 19, 2017 17.4 meters long definitely sounds like a small base to me! 1 Smutpedler reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FrightfulCommand 70 Posted July 19, 2017 Int withmissiles is gonna be good. Cruise missiles. Sadly makes the original int quite obsolete. 1 Superstrength79 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spartan1128 186 Posted July 19, 2017 I imagine this new interceptor will cost more than the old one so if you're strapped for points you'll still choose the old. Also, Kylo's pilot ability in an interceptor platform just does not sound great at all. Currently, every time we have had the same pilot in more than one chassis they've had the same ability as long as they are in the same faction. Also, he's PS 6. Hoping for some other, better unique pilots! 4 Magnus Grendel, SabineKey, Nhoj4 and 1 other reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mrk1984 490 Posted July 19, 2017 It's really a question of will it be available before or after the movie. Personally, with what happened with Poe's initial release and the outcry to get the more movie accurate version, I would rather they wait until after the movie so they can make sure the ship/pilots match its screen performance. It's going to be expensive if it's an interceptor with shields, think the Ace will be at least as much as PS9 Poe if not more. 6 Kumagoro, Stevey86, SabineKey and 3 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It may include some cross-over fix cards for the TIE/in, we can hope, like they added Integrated Astromech in with the T-70. 5 TheHumanHydra, ShawnRBrown, haslo and 2 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Going to be tricky to do, this time, as while it's obviously VISUALLY cued off the TIE Interceptor, there is nothing in the name that suggests that connection. "Sienar Jaemus TIE/VN Space Superiority Fighter" aka 'TIE Silencer' has absolutely no naming overlap with 'TIE Interceptor' at all. So... 2 UnitOmega and Odanan reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe the generics are just TIE/fo Interceptors? 1 Rogue_Group1 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DarthEnderX 5,230 Posted July 19, 2017 TIE Silencer is a pretty cool name. It is, of course, just another First Order rehash of an old ship, but it's at least a little more unique than the TIE/fo was. With a name like that, I wonder if it has a cloaking device. 2 Odanan and Rogue_Group1 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VanderLegion 4,938 Posted July 19, 2017 9 minutes ago, Oberron said: Sabine has a different ability in two different ships. Only when she crosses faction to scum. Both rebel ssabine pilots have the same pilot ability. So far every pilot with multiple versions has had the same ability if int he same faction, different ability when changing faction (or subfaction). Han (and chewie) got a new ability changing to resistance, boba/kath got new abilities changing to scum, maarek kept his ability moving to the defender, etc. 3 UnitOmega, Rogue_Group1 and Kumagoro reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Smutpedler 1,301 Posted July 19, 2017 Scilencer could show up as a tittle. Who knows? The ship looks cool and will 100% turn up in x-wing (see: quad jumper). I'd like some new interceptor goodies just don't want Fel's Wrath to be power crept out the game 2 thebrettski and Rogue_Group1 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
