smashthedean Posted January 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 Crossing my fingers that the Inquisitor's TIE turns out good... And it did! https://www.fantasyflightgames.com/en/news/2015/12/31/hunted-by-the-inquisitor/ Excited to try this thing out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClassicFlava Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 yeah he looks really good. With ptl, autothrusters, and his TIE v1 title being the best build IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dashneeb Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 I haven't been blown away by the Inquisitor TIE. I think that it's simply too spendy, a common problem with Imperial ships. And you're paying probably an extra third as many points as you would for a Z-95. I will have to try it out for certain, because I want the guidance chips, but I can't see me playing a 4 hull ship that is that expensive. I think it looks super cool though. Super excited for Imperial Veterans. Makes the TIE defender almost not too spendy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smashthedean Posted January 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 For the base TIE Advanced Prototype, you're looking at 17 points with the title, which is too expensive for a 4 health, 2 attack ship, except that it gets the free evade action with every Target Lock which is pretty nice. The Inquisitor himself however, is a steal for 31 points with PtL, title, and Autothrusters (or 30 with TIE MkII instead). I proxied him in last night and was super impressed - having that 1-turn as a green after PtL is really nice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dashneeb Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 Well, my concern is usually big ships. I was playing against a Han ship yesterday that was basically re-rolling dice left and right. At some point, the measly 3 evade dice and the one evade token dice I have just don't seem to make much difference. Autothrusters are great at range, but since a TIE wants to be close, seems difficult to make them something that makes a four health ship worthy. Like I said, am going to try it out. The really tight turn does look nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smashthedean Posted January 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 The Inquisitor actually does best at Range 3 since his attack always counts as Range 1, which means both 3 attack dice for him and no bonus evade die for the opponent. That + Autothrusters should work pretty well against big ships. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dashneeb Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 If I remember, it's only that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inquisitor is a steal at 31 pts with title, autothrusters, amd ptl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
