But also, a fifth defense token in the ISD splash. Could the raider be finally getting a redirect???

This 5th token is for the squadrons.

 

And about the Profundity:
I TOLD YOU! Rapid Launch frigate!

It's Hype Christmas then

Gonna brag a bit...i remember saying a while ago they should start adding in a set of squads with new ships, so as not to flood the game with 16 new options every single time they want new squads. Now if they DO add u wings to the 75, I'm pretty sure I'll have called it perfectly

So with Thrawn - Can you double up on the same dial?   Can an Interdictor get 10 engineering? (11 with token?)

Argument ongoing, but a play tester mentioned you can't.

Is a Kuat and a Cymoon still a Star Destroyer? Can I put Avenger or Relentless on them?

It certainly looks like the same ship symbol so I'm thinking any of the already released ISD titles will work with these new versions.

From the rules reference it seems no, only 1 dial+1token can be combined:

• A ship cannot resolve the same command more than once per round.

•A ship can spend both a command dial and a command token to combine their effects. Doing so counts as a single resolution of the command. For example, a ship can increase its speed twice by spending a M command dial and a M command token.

Unfortunately no, the max effect you can get out of this is by getting a token from one of the dials and using the other dial for a leia like effect.

Kuat is probably going to be the new go-to base for Avengers.

Squadron 2 hurts it, especially since Boarding Troopers take the Offensive retro slot, so no EHB.

On most targets, that's probably enough. Nuke the brace and either one redirect or the contain if they have DCO, then slam them with any of the ordnance choices (besides RR). Get a double arc, and it becomes even more a difficult choice.

I KNOWWWW SO MUCH HYPE

[Card Knight 367]

I wonder if the 75 will get the interdictor defense token suite. I feel it'd be fitting

I sat there hitting next/previous image and couldn't see any difference, so I'm certain that Kuat and Cymoon refits can equip Avenger, Relentless, and Devastator. This also means we can be extra hyped when we get to see what those new titles are, since they'll probably be available to the ISD I and II which means more possible upgrade combinations. It also looks like almost all of the new cards are unique, except for that Early Warning thing. I'm wondering if the idea is you only need one Chimaera?

Wonder if the Mandalorian Gauntlets will be uniques with different names or something. If I'm not mistaken, that's a new ability symbol on the unique one, along with Rogue. Looks like the Escort symbol but the small arrow is aimed at the big one instead of protected by it. Maybe some sort of anti-Escort ability? Or something that makes them more effective against ships. Interested to see what these things can do, since right now they seem like the main reason to consider a second Chimaera instead of another ISD.

I really really like thrawn. I really think they did him justice.

I also really like that the ISD is getting a strategic slot.

[Battlefleet 01 Studios 518]

Something tells me Thrawn is going to become the new staple commander for Imperial builds.

 

Think Thrawn would be pleased by the new wave?

i did steal this from my buddy but its great

[BergerFett 708]

this is also an interesting way to "fix" older ships.  the new ISDs are pretty **** good and didnt require an FAQ?errata for the old ones. meaning same models, just better or different.  i like this direction
