kylo renSneaking into Wave 13 (wow 13) is the TIE Striker for the Empire! Piloted by Kylo Ren, this devious craft is more than able to crush the Resistance! 

Kylo Ren is a pilot skill 9 TIE Silencer unique ship. Featuring 3 attack, 3 agility, 4 hull and 2 shields. This nimble fighter comes stock with boost and barrel roll, and has the target lock and focus actions. His pilot ability allows him to assign the “I’ll Show You the Dark Side” condition card to that ship that attacked Kylo and dealt damage. To get more bang for his buck, let’s give him Calculation. Calculation allows Kylo to spend a focus to turn 1 of your focus results to a critical while attacking. This can take advantage of the “I’ll Show You the Dark Side” card that forces the assigned pilot to suffer a pilot critical of your choice.  Since the TIE Silencer has a System upgrade, let’s go for Fire Control System. Whenever Kylo performs an attack, he may acquire a target lock on the defender. Since his condition card singles out 1 ship, why not focus it down with free target lock re-rolls. This will free up Kylo’s actions to use focus more freely for Calculation.The Pattern Analyzer tech upgrade can make sure that Kylo always get his actions. When executing a maneuver, you may resolve the “Check Pilot Stress” step after you perform an action. This allows you to get a mini Advanced Sensors effect off before performing a red maneuver. A great way to keep Kylo Ren on his target.

The TIE Silencer is here to wreak havoc on the Resistance best pilots. Will you fall to the Dark Side or join them?
