X-Wing: Upsilon Shuttle – Fear the Dark Side
FFG shows off the upcoming Wave Ten Imperial Upsilon Shuttle and it’s bag of tricks.
This time around we get to see some of the cards that come with the First Order’s new ship. First we see two sample passengers, then two of the new Wave X condition cards, seen earlier on Sabine’s TIE.
Those two guys let you hand out the condition cards below to give a slight boost to a friendly, or make life a little bit harder for that one annoying bad guy.
The Upsilon is also the game’s first non HUGE ship to carry the coordinate action, first seen on the Rebel Transport. The Coordinate action, grants a free action to another friendly ship at Range 1–2. There’s a whole lot of trickery and combos to be had there.
The ships comes basic with some nice stats:
Attack: 4
Defense: 1
Hull: 6
Shields: 6
