Popular Post LunarSol Posted June 27, 2016 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 Sky Pirate is completely broken. It's strictly better than every other character trait in the game. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D_acolyte Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 Aaron you say he can not be pinned down, we will see what Anna states. She pins down enemies very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fetid Strumpet Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 His walk is 8" with a trigger that doesn't require success to place him within 6". Anna is much better at preventing entry, not escape from her aura. With the information we have about him at present, Zip would have to be within 2" of her to not be able to just place outside her aura as normal. and her disengaging strike if he just chose to walk isn't going to do her any favors in actually ensuring he stays in place. I doubt very highly that Anna will do much other than mildly annoy him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adran Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 If he is at the extreme of Anna's ml range (1") then he can still just use his df/wp trigger, so whilst she might make it harder, I don't think she can really pin him in place. And that's without seeing more than the front of his card Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sordid Strumpet Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 Aww man, totally worth the wait. Sky pirates? I am SO in. I shall strictly be buying five of everything with sky pirate on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rathnard Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 Looks awesome. I'm hoping he'll be able to send wave after wave of his own troops at the enemy. Sadly, and despite my best attempts, I just can't get into Gremlins as a Faction. So short of some flash of inspiration I'll probably be going with Asami, Reva, Nellie and/or Parker instead. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kobayashi Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 And this is why you choose Gremlins, because than you get not only Gremlin, but SKY PIarrrrrrTE Gremlins! Also I play 10 Thunders*, so I get my Oni Fix ... (* and whith this, every other faction, too... my wallet, it bleeds) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoylentRobot Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 i love him. And WK 8, Flight and 3 AP means he's pretty darn fast, should be easy to have him constantly pestering the opposing scheme runners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Wallace Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 Ha! I've been waiting for more "mad scientist" Gremlins. A bit cliche, but giggling little green men are always a great way to lighten the mood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edopersichetti Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 From a seasoned Gremlin player's perspective, he is a bit underwhelming so far. Of course, the judgment can't be complete since one of the 4 abilities on the front of his card is obvious (flight) and another is a negative one (insignificant) which should hopefully be balanced by an awesome back of the card, which we haven't seen yet. Also, there is obviously potential for upgrades and his crew, and the theme of the sky pirates sounds cool. I just hope he is viable to play! A lot of people are getting excited about "sky pirate" and think it's going to be a pirate-themed crew but I actually don't think so...seeing how they're called "iron skeeters", and he doesn't look piratesque at all, they might all just look like him...

Golden Apple Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 I like the render. I dislike most Gremlin renders, so there's that. He does sort of stick out, aesthetically, from the rest of his kin. We'll see if the rest of his crew is as incongruous as he is, or if they tie him in more with his landbound brethren.

Guildenstern Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 I really wouldn't want a hat on him, honestly, it's liable to just get blown off when he launches. love the Skypirate idea, love the sculpt. Questioning the insignificant but I spose that's to do with something on his cardback or other combo Will be getting him of course, cuz Gremlin plus pirate!? awesome sauce.
