Up first we have Tracking Torpedoes:

These seem pretty cool! Spend the energy to shoot out Torpedoes that get a “free” lock on an object you already have locked. You could dump them all in one go or fire them off at different intervals during subsequent turns.

Proton Cannon Battery is also looking pretty solid as an option for your Huge Ships. It not only packs a 4 dice attack at ranges 2-5, it’s also has some bonus attack options that can convert your hits to crits.

Finally, we have Tractor Technicians:

Not only does this force the enemy ships to keep their tractor tokens at the end of the round, they can also be used to slow their maneuvers, too. Lock down those squirrely ships and pour on the firepower!

Star Wars X-Wing 2nd Ed: Trident-class Assault Ship $99.95

Whether spearheading surprise attacks on key Republic facilities or pirate raids on innocent worlds, the Trident-class assault ship heralds the arrival of hostile forces, emerging ominously from the seas of stars. Armed with crushing tentacles and capable of operating in space, atmosphere, or the ocean’s depths, these versatile warships present an unorthodox threat that can strike unexpectedly to seize control of nearly any battlefield.

Inside you will find multiple new Huge Ship Upgrade cards, Quick Build cards, and several new scenarios for using this craft: Rising Tide, a head-to-head scenario, and Leviathan Hunt, a co-operative scenario where multiple players work together to bring down a single Trident-class assault ship controlled by a simplified Solo System AI deck.

This pack includes everything you need to add 1 Trident-class Assault Ship to your game.
