drail14me 1,255 Posted October 13 (edited) I love Snowtroopers and use them often. Been wondering what would make them a little better. I'm thinking a "Snowtrooper Specialist" with the same text as the "Stormtrooper Specialist" except change the free action to a "free speed 1 move" would be nice. So, the "Snowtrooper Specialist" would give a Snowtrooper unit an extra Gear slot and a free move action for 15 points. Or, simply remove the “exhaust” from the T-7 ION gun. Thoughts?

Thoughts? it would give them potentially 3 triggers for a free shot, i think it would be better/more viable for it to be an exhaustable that increases their speed to 2 for either a turn or a move, not sure which. this would mean they have the extra movement without the extra action. This would be very good for hostage come to think of it. 1 Epik327 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Only that 2 speed 1 moves takes them a little bit farther than 1 speed 2 move. 5 lunitic501, Caimheul1313, costi and 2 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Khobai 371 Posted October 13 (edited) Snowtroopers need better heavy weapon options. They need their DLT-20A and SE14r light repeating blaster. A Snowtrooper specialist that buffs e-webs would make sense too. Since the eweb is a snowtrooper unit. The snowtrooper captain could have a once per game ability that gives a free speed-1 move. i dont think that would be a problem. Snowtroopers should also get a rule that lets them ignore certain condition cards. Theyre equipped to fight in hostile environments and low visibility conditions. Its strange that they have no rules that reflect that. Snowtroopers getting +1 courage might make sense too. I think every faction should have a courage 2 corps unit.

Having a 'machine gun' option for snows (even if its range 1-2) would open them up to a new style of play. As for e-webs, it would be cool to get a 'fire support spotter' that gives snowtroopers 'coordinate: emplacement trooper' and spotter 1. 1 drail14me reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
